The forest stands tall and lush here; ancient trees reach weather-twisted arms to the sky, fighting monster-like storm clouds back with their interlacing fingers. Shadow seems to lurk everywhere you look, but it spills calmly, coolly, inspiring a sense of stealthy calm or protection rather than unease. That is, if you've forgotten what kind of creature might be stalking just out of sight...Abendrot is a land cradled by the dark woods on all sides; in the center, some of the larger trees stay behind to reveal a small plateau - a citadel where this pack can gather and defend itself from invaders. There are, of course, softer sides to the land. Clearings here and there allow the sun to throw down its rays in incongruously resplendent gold showers. Ignore the lingering scents of blood spattered here and there along the borders: those do not concern you. The river on one edge of the territory is playful enough when it hasn't been gorged by violent rain. You can choose to note the ragged claw marks raked down tree trunks and the forest floor as friendly "Home Sweet Home" signs, if you wish.
All who treasure loyalty, order, victory, and the occasional indulgence of raw visceral pleasure are welcome, once they've been approved by the ever-watchful eyes of Abendrot's Alpha. But keep one thing in mind: no matter what your motive, this is not a fool's Paradise. This is the land of soldiers, assassins, and spies. This is ABENDROT.
Make up your mind quickly and prepare to prove your worth. You wouldn't want to add to those blood spatters, would you...?

Life had been coming back in some ways within the forest, but then in others it still seemed as dead as winter. Seasons changed as they always did, bringing about the warmer weather once more. The snow had melted away moons ago, leaving behind the muds of the spring. But with it came plenty of water to feed new life. But even the spring time had faded away and brought about the warmer months. Trees were a bright green, with thick, full leaves. Flowers had bloomed fully and the grass and brush had grown back in. Deer and rabbit raised their young, teaching them the ways of the forest. Squirrels and chipmunks bickered in the trees to each other while birds sang their stories overhead. Everywhere you looked you could find life within the forest. But there was also shadows with this bright, seemingly perfect land. Grey Wind had hoped that Abendrot would be thriving by now, but its number remained the same as they had since he had taken over reign. He did not need many wolves though, but a certain kind of wolf. Not every being could reside within these borders and survive. But still he had hoped for a little more life. But the king still remained, though he kept to himself, lurking in the shadows. He watched the activities of other, keeping an eye on other packs and their activity. Even though everything seemed quiet right now, he knew that it would not last forever. The brute had been getting word of demons from his past coming to these lands, and he knew it was only a matter of time before they found him and his living siblings, as few as there may be. But that was not the only thing troubling him. The female that he had only recently come to realize was the one mate for him had not been around lately, and it was entirely his fault. From the moment he had met Macaria he had been cruel and rude to her, and yet she had stayed with him, even fallen in love with him, and Grey Wind returning the feelings even if he had never said these words out laid. But he kept an eye and an ear of for her as he continued to patrol the borders, watching the life within his pack unfold. Picture and table credit to the wonderful Morgin <3
