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.

By all counts, I was still a relatively new member to Iromar. My brother and I had been here for a season's time, but I had dedicated more of my time to getting to know the landscape rather than the other pack wolves. That would come in time, perhaps beginning with the pack hunt. To hunt as a pack was a thing that bonded wolves closely, if the desire was there to build such relationships. In the time I had lived here I had already begun to feel a fierce loyalty to Aithne and Iromar. Perhaps it was because Aithne and I had been friends long before we had ever needed to come here, or because Praetor trusted her on a level that I was still curious to discover the reason for. Their closeness was something that interested me, but I had not yet had the chance to ask either of them about it. Maybe it was none of my business, but Praetor and I had always been incredibly close - ever since birth - and so the need to know these important details in his life was only second nature to me.
In any case, my newness to Iromar had not kept me from working towards a rank, and it seemed apparent that if the reason for Spirane's lightness of scent upon this wolf was because she was new, perhaps she was also working towards a rank within her pack. The reputation of Spirane's wolves preceded this female, and as I came closer I was received in kind as her tail waved back and forth and a friendly expression upon her facade. I introduced myself and was answered with an introduction and the reasoning for her arrival. As she got right to the point I nodded, finding this idea a most interesting one that could prove mutually beneficial for both packs. Already in the back of my mind ideas to improve upon this potential excursion were forming. I nodded to her, thinking that it was a fine idea indeed, but of course I had a few questions of my own.
"It is a pleasure to meet you, Sway. This sounds like a fine idea that I would love to pass along to Aithne as well as our yearlings if they are interested in engaging in such an event. Will this take place come summer? Also, shall the hunting occur within Spirane or out in the freelands?" Her answers would then determine who I would recommend Aithne send with the girls, if they did decide that they wanted to go.
