Announcements as of July 28, 2021

I have called you, and you have answered my call --

Do not mistake my silence for weakness, my forest kin. For I am willing to defend you with my fangs and claws, until the days come when am no longer able to. Keep an eye on the borders for Zelda and her sister Midna, because I will welcome them back into the flock on the day of their return.

The flood has left our forest home in a sorry state of disarray. I shall not tolerate this. Summer is here and we must rebuild our dens in time for winter. There is a lot of hard and dirty work ahead of us. But we shall face it together, as family, as a pack. Let's get back to work and then we shall hunt. I hunger for a feast.


From your new Alpha --

Moonshade, the Gravekeeper of Moladion

I always knew Amoxtli would be good for the pack. Just like Coza, he has always put everyone else before himself. Even as kids, he followed Zeltzin and I everywhere so if we ever got into trouble, he would be there to bail us out. He was the warrior, the knight in shining armor. And now he's the king with his armor still intact. I don't want him to wait long so I make my way to him as soon as I can, knowing he'll be there as we planned. I heard that the fight with Jaidah was pretty vicious. I wish I could have been there to see it. Amoxtli may have a lot of father in him but I think he's more defensive than anyone gives him credit for. He would be willing to do anything to keep those he cares about safe. Coza was great at fighting, don't get me wrong, but he always felt guilty for the wounds he gave his opponent. I saw no guilt or regret in my brother's eyes when I met him after the fight.

At my teasing remark, he looks caught off guard at first before he catches my wink and seems to relax a little. He shakes his head before assuring me that Shiloh would probably do it herself. I chuckle and nod in agreement. "I think you're right." He looks sheepish but I just smirk in victory. His face sombers up fast though when I ask why he called me out here. He sighs and my own face straightens at the sound, my ears pricked forward, giving him my full attention at this point. If there's anything I've always been good at, it's listening. His first words make my brow rise before I realize he's talking about the fight with Jaidah, he must be. I tilt my head to listen better and take a seat, curling my tail around my flanks. I don't try to pressure him or hurry him. He seems almost frustrated with himself at one point, promising me that he's getting to his point but I only smile softly, perhaps a piece of Moth in me to assure him that I'm patient and I can wait.

I remember well the day Tobias and his two females came into Taviora to come after me. I don't think anyone knows that they were after me that day but they did hurt a pack member and almost got me. The red and white female is one tough girl. I nod in understanding as he goes on. I know that he didn't want to kill the three wolves. He just wanted them away from his pack members and away from his home. I could tell by the look in his eyes that day. He was just on the defense, nothing more. As he jumps to Jaidah, both my brows lift in genuine surprise. He wants her dead. That's something big to admit out loud. Inside, I feel good that he trusts me enough to tell me though.

Now he's asking a question so I furrow my brows in thought, letting him get to the end of his question. He pauses and sighs again and my eyes remain patient. I shake my head instantly. "No, you could never be that bad. They only want chaos and destruction. You want your home and family safe. You don't start violence. She came here and challenged. She instigated. You just showed her that you mean business. It says enough that you ask if you should care because that means that you do." My eyes burn with determination in my eyes. In a way, I understand him more in this moment than probably any other time in our entire lives. In this moment, we are truly brothers, both disgusted with the murderers in the world and wanting them gone. He knows what Jaidah is and when he met her in challenge, he wanted her dead just as I wanted Seir dead the day I caught him over not one but two innocent bodies.

It means a lot that he decided to unload this on me. I wonder inside if he's ever told Shiloh. He should know that I would never tell anyone, not even our parents. Especially not our parents. Moth is a forgiving soul who would probably have some words of wisdom on why we shouldn't want their deaths and Coza wouldn't understand why we want to be killers just like them. He's very much against death. I smile lightly. "Good, you shouldn't regret what you went through to defend your home. I certainly don't."

THE FOREST RANKS

THE GRAVEKEEPER

The Alpha Male of Taviora. He will accept all challenges and block any steals. He has taken an oath to protect all within the forest, alive and dead.

THE KEEPER OF SECRETS

This will be Moonshade's chosen co-alpha. They will also be able to accept challanges and steals in order to defend Taviora.

THE KEEPER OF TRUTHS

This rank will belong to the chosen heir of Taviora. This wolf will probably share Moonshade's blood. This rank can be challenged for if you believe that you are a better candidate for the job.

THE FOREST COUNCIL

Although the Alpha's have the final say in all matters, Taviora is still a pack, we are still a community. These wolves are the most senior members of our ranks. Their role is to guide, serve and protect. All of them have earned their place here and they should be respected at all times. Every position on the council can be challanged for by a subordinate pack member. However the council has the right to block a pack member from gaining the position if they have concluded that the individual has placed their own selfish desires before the best interest of the pack as a whole.

THE TUSKS

The packs lead fighter. One of the strongest and bravest in our ranks. They will answer the call to protect the forest if either of the Alpha's are absent.

THE JAWS

The packs head of defence. They are our chief hunter and guardian to all within the forest borders. They know every inch of Taviora and every wolf within.

THE HORNS

The packs most senior teacher. They are responsible for teaching and guiding all of our young and new members so that they will reach their full potential.

THE EYES

The packs trusted informant. This wolf spends a lot of their time outside the forest borders, keeping their eyes, ears and nose peeled for news or potential trouble. Due to the secretive and dangerous nature of this rank, only a wolf that the pack can trust with their lives will obtain this responsibility.

THE DARKDWELLER

This is Taviora’s Head Healer. This wolf is responsible for treating the pack's wounds, injuries and illnesses. They are also expected to be one of the first on scene when a mother goes into labour. Along with their counterpart, The Soothsayer, they will train future healers for the service of our pack and our allies.

THE SOOTHSAYER

This is Taviora’s Head Counselor. Their knowledge of healing and herbal remedies are equal to that of their counterpart, The Darkdweller. This wolf specializes in helping us conquer the unseen demons in our heads and our hearts. They are also expected to help bring all children of the forest safely into this world.

NIGHTWATCHERS

Our trusted packmates that guard the borders while the rest of us sleep safely in our dens. If something is amiss within our lands, they should be the first to intercept any threat and call for back up when needed. Some might not call themselves soldiers, but they will spill blood if push comes to shove.

DAWNSTRIDERS

The most diligent and selfless of our pack. They are up at first light and leave our inner sanctum every few days in search of prey. They hunt far and wide in order to make sure none of us go hungry. While not out hunting, they are free to relax or assist the Nightwatchers, Daylightres or Dawnstriders with their tasks.

DAYLIGHTERS

This group will make up the bulk of our pack, they are our beloved family. They are generalists and commoners who are charged with looking after the most central and sacred parts of our home. Along with The Horns, they are expected to watch out for our children. We are happy to keep all within our ranks that love and respect the forest of Taviora.

DUSKWALKERS

Rumoured to be the most free spirited and independent members of our pack, they guard when no other eyes are available. They wander down all the winding dirt paths and have been known to explore into the freelands. They are envoys and ambassadors who assist The Eyes with their duty of keeping us all safe.

ANCIENT PINES

These wolves are older and have retired from active service. We thank them for all that they have done for our pack, however long or short their tenor was. They shall live out the rest of their years with the best food, shelter and company we can offer them.

THE BRIAR PATCH

This is the name for Taviora’s nursing mothers and their litters of puppies. Once they are born, at least one parent is expected to temporarily step down from their role in order to raise their pups for the first 6 months of their lives. An exemption can be made if another mother is willing to look after the young while the parents resume their service to the pack.

THE SAPLINGS

Too big for the briar patch but not yet old enough to be called a daylighter. These are all puppies between the age of 1 and 3. Pups can start their training from 2 and above if The Horns has found a suitable Mentor for them.

THE WELCOMED

These wolves are welcome within our borders anytime of the day or night. Blocking their access will be met with disapproval and possible punishment.

THE BANISHED

They are enemies of our pack and their presence will not be tolerated within or near our home. Those caught in contact with a wolf on this list will likely share the same fate.

THE SACRED TOMBS

Our brothers and sisters that have sadly left us for their next adventures. We give thanks for their lives and we send them on with all our love, hopes and dreams. Moonshade will accept the bones of any wolf that has ever called Taviora their home and will find them a special place within our hallowed grounds. Every burial mound is individual and sacred. Tampering or messing with one will not be tolerated. A crime against the dead will be treated as though it has been committed against a living pack member.

Remember, we are always watching from the shadows ...
