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.
The Forest Queen is full of sadness in those swimming, large eyes. It is clear in the way that she looks upon the Darkbringer that she feels something akin to pity for him. It makes Thorne's lips twitch up in a smirk, his ears splaying the sides as she speaks of coming for his hatred. A chuffing laugh is given in response. "Dear Queen, I do not need you to take care of those that hurt me," he says, deliberately misinterpreting what she means. "That is what I am in the position to do now. Now, it is I that will be the one to cull my own problems." The words are full of delight though there is an edge of warning there, a cockiness in his charcoal eyes while she stares at him with that soft face. Did she think her light was wanted here? That he desired some noble female to come try and save him? No, but the idea was intriguing. Was Zelda simply a case of a female who just HAD to fix things?
A grunt is given in reply to her words of generosity, though he gives her a backwards grin as he paces away and a wink to go with it. Then he is gone to fetch the two girls from the den, eager to finally have them off his paws and to better focus his attentions upon Aspis. How would the boy be without others to protect? He didn't think that Aspis would be like Zelda... oh no, he would be far, far worse.
--------------
Aspis waited with a few twitches of his shoulder until he was sure Blackthorne was far enough away before spouting off his words, emerald eyes slipping between the Queen and her protector as she gives demands to the large male. Teza seems reluctant and it makes Aspis' ears twitch as he bites down and grinds his teeth together to stop himself from hissing at them to hurry up. The weight of this moment sits heavily upon him. Finally the girls would be free once more.
Zelda crouches and his ears spin back before pricking forward, hard face focused on her. A look of relief softens those harsh lines. So his mother was safe at least which meant so was his sister and brother. "Wait, find leads? What is he doing?!" The words come out sharp and accusing as he glares at Zelda, worried his father might try something stupid like coming back for him. The mere thought has his heart slamming into his rib cage because... because he wasn't sure if he WANTED to go. Not yet. And he wasn't sure if the reason was because he wanted to be embedded as a spy or if he really did find some sort of.... respect for the Darkbringer.
Zelda speaks in kind words, uplifting, but Aspis feels a sense of worry swaying beneath his feet. It makes him growl very softly, his words pitched low for her ears as well. "They should have kept us in Asteraia. This is their fault." His words are full of a naked pain even beneath his growl, a child who needs someone to blame. "Don't worry about me. I can take care of myself. Tell them that." Then he steps back a bit, lifting his head, a stubborn cant to his head and a furrow in his brows that gives him a mean look though he feels like swallowing back the words he just said. But some things cant be undone, just as the poisoned barbs that Thorne has fed him about his parents has begun to stick. It wasn't like he didn't already have these thoughts before all this but now... now they were cemented. "Yeah. Tell them not to let Archana come back here. Tell them not to let any of them come back. I'll be fine." He stiffens his shoulders and lifts his head, giving a firm nod moments before the sound of paws comes.
Blackthorne siddles into the picture with Whisper and Archana, an irritated look on his face due to the deaf girl and her irritating displays. "Take them and get out of here. I've got better things to do for the rest of the day. Go with her. You are free now." His words are bored, glaring at the girls until they move towards Zelda then his eyes skip to Aspis, noting his standoffish appearance with a pleased expression on his face. "Remember your promise, Forest Queen," he warns before jerking his head towards the boy and turning back towards Iromar, Aspis immediately falling into place at his hip with a sly glance back at Zelda and his own warning - don't bring them back.
