The air is heavy as you make your way through unknown territory, as you pause to sniff the air a drop of rain falls onto your nose. It is soon followed by another and another and soon the rain is pelting down in sheets, soaking you to the bone. The clouds are an angry purple and the menacing drumming of thunder rolls over the sky. Squinting your eyes against the blinding water you find yourself at the edge of a large, dark pine forest. You are too desperate for shelter to notice the scents that mark the border and plunge in, and nearly into the chilly stream that runs through the territory. You veer away and as you are shaking the water out of your fur you notice a large pair of icy blue shards gazing at you. The storm has passed now and beams of sunlight filter through the thick canopy of pines, illuminating a massive male wolf not three feet away from where you stand.
His pelt looks like a bad patchwork job of black and white and beneath them you see large, hard bands of steely muscle and you know this is a warrior for his torso is marred with many battle scars. His banner curls over his back and his lips are drawn, exposing sharp ivory daggers. When he speaks his voice is deep and dominant, like the thunder you so recently heard.
"Wolf, you have found yourself in the terra of the Andere Seite Pack. I am Eclipse, king of this land."
It is only then that you notice another pair of lanterns gleaming in the penumbra and a dark-pelted fae slinks out into the clearing to stand next to the king, her own banner waves and her green and blue eyes bore into you. She is the same size as most males and a crisscrossing pattern of scars show that she too can take care of herself. Her voice is cold and has a snake-like sound to it yet you can see they are both fair rulers.
"And I am Nephthys, queen of Andere. We don’t care much for strangers so you must make your choice, Submit to us now or flee our lands and never return. If you fail to do either you will have little time left to regret it."
The formidable pair pierces you with their gaze and you feel as if all your secrets spill out before them. You are left with a decision now. Will you submit and take refuge in this dark forest or will you flee and never know what secrets these trees hide? Make haste, you can see that the pair grow tired of waiting.

I'd say judging by the look in Athene's eyes that she's older than me and probably seen a lot more than I have in my life time. Of course, I do like to take others for a loop when I get the chance and judging by the look on her face, I would say I succeeded this time. More of a silent observer myself, I've grown so used to my brother Kronos doing most of the talking for me that when I find myself in one on one situations, I tend to try to find some way to keep their attention because I'm not as smooth as my brother and I don't like to hear myself talk. You could say I've lived most of my life through my brother, letting him have all the fun interactions while I stayed back and watched from the side lines. I was always more quiet, more reserved and while I think a lot, I only say half of what I'm truly thinking. I don't usually go out of my way to make a friend or get to know someone unless they're family. I may come off as grumpy or snobby even but I'm neither of the two. I'm just more quiet in nature. Maybe some day I'll settle down to find a partner of my own, someone to share my life and my words with but she's got to be worth it and since I haven't come across anyone like that yet, I'll just keep biding my time. Maybe my mate will be more like my brother and talk a lot and like to play with her food. She'll be the one I can live through. When I start talking, the shock on her face is palpable and I have to stop myself from laughing out loud at her expression. Her jaw falls open and I just smirk and tilt my head, holding my tongue from telling her the obvious. I do find myself very curious about her coat so I have to ask. She wants to know about Satanicans and I have answered so I find it only right that she tells me where she got her cool colors. I listen carefully as she tells me of the uniqueness of her coat. I raise a brow. No one in her family shares these colors? How intriguing. She speaks a little of her siblings and her parents and I nod in acknowledgement. She even lets me in a little, something of a surprise to me. She feels uncomfortable here with all the ranks though she doesn't want to complain. She tells me again of her mate and how they will remain here which lets me know they must be loyal to the land so where does their loyalty lie when it comes to Quirino? Then she asks of my own family and I take a breath. "My Mother Seline is proud of her blood. White with red patches, like being covered in red mud. Like a perfect hunter, she always catches her prey. Other wolves are her specialty. She is labeled a cannibal, known for her brutality. Then like something mechanical, you have my father Eric. He drinks the blood of his prey something others might call barbaric. The lightest version of gray, his coat is white as the snow in winter. But where my mother looks at you with serpent green, his are blue as an ice cube's splinter. My brother Kronos could be considered mean, but only if you disrespect his family. He matches my mother in coat and color, but ask him of me and he'll respond happily. For though in color he might be duller, we will be together through thick and thin. We traveled together from another land, known to us as Moladian. That is where we've been. Born out in the wild, we found it kind of bland. And so we traveled to a pack known as Asteraia, and there we found a place to belong. The alpha tended to fall into a hysteria but in being a warrior, I found my true song. I was trained and brought up to be at my best, and while my parents decided to stay in the land they knew, Kronos and I decided to head out west. We know that here, we are no longer of the few. Now tell me, Athene, how did you meet your mate? Forgive me for prying, but I like to study the ways of fate.
