Get with me if you want to move up in rank. I'm going to change up the pack tasks for a little change of pace.
Congratulations to Adrian on her promotion to Governess. She will handle the guidance and teaching of our young pups in Iromar.
If you have a ^ next to your name, that means you're up for promotion so see me or send me a message on Discord so we can see where to move you. All others interested in specializing or getting a rank, let me know so we can figure out how to make that happen.
The pack board has been updated. If you wanted to remain a member, let me know either on here or Discord and I'll get you back on the board. Otherwise, let's have a thread!
I know I had a couple replies for the training with Spirane so I will be starting that thread soon. Stay tuned!
I am still working on an alliance with Diveen and Asteraia so stay tuned. If you have any information or would like to help, please let me know. If anyone has any ideas to promote activity within the pack, also, let me know. I am open for plots and such! Meanwhile, thank you all for your continued support of the pack.
THERE IS A HUMMING IN THE RESTLESS SUMMER AIR IP: 108.245.133.46 Posted on March 15, 2015 at 03:12:25 AM by AITHNE
The night had began as it usually did for Aithne. She had scented the border once more for she was ever watchful of interlopers and it wouldn't do to become complacent. Time had slipped by in the swift way that it did when one was occupied until months and even seasons had begun to change beneath the rule of her paws. The swamp was the same as ever excepting a few changes in rank and few wolves who both appeared and disappeared. Where they went was their own business, truly, yet it was displeasing for them to up and vanish. Winter was coming on soon and Aithne wanted a strong pack, one that could together provide for the pack through the winter seasons. There was no role in the pack yet for hunters and she had pondered on the idea of such.
It was a restless sort of night when the cool air did little to comfort her over warm body so she chose to lay at the head of her den with her ears pricked and dark eyes seeing nothing. She felt a certain disassociation with herself for she felt quite at home and confident here in the swamps, ruler as she was, yet she often felt this internal gnawing that wished for her to move closer, closer, closer to the source of it all. Glorall and Praetor. Each time they met, circling each other like the sun and planets, the bond grew stronger and Aithne had always been bereft so it was natural that she should feel it as strong as him.
As her mind churned over such strange possibilities a call was sent up; a call that was both challenge and demand, and immediately her fur began to stand on end, the red lines down the sides of her back flaring out. Aithne responds quite suddenly with her own call that is deep. It tells the challenger that she will come and that she will triumph and there was no submission here, for that had never truly been a strong suit of hers. She rises fluidly and begins a swift lope towards the direction of Carnage, ears pinned back and an occasional snarl ripping through the air.
Yet she quiets the closer she draws towards the direction of the call. Her fur still stands plush and tail high as she finally spies the caller. Aithne is not graceful - she does not flow over the ground as the fey creatures would. Each step is met with an impact and her broad paws leave indentations of her presence as she stalks towards the other. Beneath the pale light of the moon, for it is weak and waning, Aithne spies the almost brindled looking female. She is marked with a light gray, a darker gray, and black yet it all blends and darkens in the night air.
The female is made in a way that most would find pleasing - males, at least. So at odds with the buxom, broad figure of Aithne, for she is not lissome or supple but all stout and unyielding muscle. Carnage stands proud as she awaits the arrival of the Empress and Aithne approaches with a dare in her step and a challenge in her eyes. Soft lips peel back to flash teeth at the female, to reveal to her the thick canines that rest in her wide muzzle, for could not her jaws snap down and clamp eternally if she wished? There was no hesitance in her movements or in her stride - Aithne did not live her life of hardship by hesitance. She was willing to fight past death, if need be, for what was hers.
"If you believe that I am tired, for it is the dead of the night, and thus weaker, you are mistaken," she growls out at the stranger, pausing a few paces away to await what would happen. "For if it is a challenge you seek then I will gladly give it to you." And she would, in teeth and claws and sheer brawn, for she does not know the true intentions of the other female, only what has been given to her thus far.

Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing; bow down to the mighty
