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.
It had been some time since he had spoken or spent any amount of time with his Commander. Such was the life of the Darkbringer, poised with constant riddles and daily puzzles to fathom. The wheel of destiny was churning through Molodian. Kings and Queens rising and falling. In truth, he was rather surprised no challenger had come forth to him, but he also took it as a sign of his infamy that they chose to skirt the edges of the moorland. Many believed it to be a nasty place, filled with mud and muck. True, the southern coast was marshland but the inner northern part of Iromar was lush, short moorland grasses on acidic soil and climbing, spindly trees mixed with willows. It was a fascinating landscape, at once lovely as it was dangerous, and the frequent mist gave it a haunted feel.
He liked it.
Phantoms of memories lurked here. Monstrous misdeeds, cruel kings, fallen queens. A land riddled in history, one safeguarded by his newest pack member, the Bonecollector. The boneyard had been neglected too long. He would put it to rights, his own Throne of Bones, whereupon he could step on the skulls of those fallen before him and those trodden by the might if Iromar. How poetic.
Since the abandonment of the girls, he found the den to be a much more relaxing place. The boy Aspis had seemed to relax and respond more to his word with their departure, much to the delight of the Darkbringer, and he rewarded him with further stretching of the proverbial leash. Just how far could he reach into the mind of the princeling?
My lord, a voice calls, and one eye slides open in the murky dark of his den before Blackthorne stretches with a wide yawn. Slowly he rises, slinking towards the entrance, peering out at the silver boy, once a prince in his own right. Did Zharko envy him? Did he feel a bit of resentment that HE was the ruler of Iromar and not him? Such machinations always toiled in the mind of the chaotic Shadow King. "Commander," he says on his sly tongue, fully stepping out to stare down at the smaller male. "Idleness does not suit you, I suppose?" A wicked smile. "I am glad. Idle paws are not worthy paws, as it was. As a matter of fact, I do have a task for you. There is a wolf I need you to find. I have promised to exact a certain bit of revenge upon him but he fled in the mayhem of my take over. And they say that I am the coward." He chuckles. "His name is Boneskull. A half brother of yours I hear." A sly look given to Zharko, watching for any sign of recognition. "I need his location before I can figure out what needs to be done. Find him."
