This visit was more of a happy one than one of business. Of course all seriousness in it, aside from that she was glad that Helios and Natalya had received their family that they deserved. Arian on the inside hated virgil a little bit, but than again her heart had a hard time hating anyway. The last she saw of them was during the festival, which by now they would have noticed her wounds obviously. As she arrived at the borders, she raised her head in a summoning howl. Sitting down her head tilted slightly, she wondered if they disliked her. If they somehow just didn't feel the same way she had about them. Not that it bothered Arian, those kinds of things had never bothered her. Life went on, and she had her own people to worry about now. The gods graced her with that much on hr dark days. "Talk" "You" Think

A call from within the borders summoned her, something that cause her to perk up immediately. Only those comfortable with Pantheon would dare cross the strip to seek a member so directly, or those wishing to threaten it. This summons was no threat though. It was familiar and joyful, the call of a former pack mate. Arian. The Matriarch moved quickly to greet her, taking only a moment to cross the estuary. She approached with a friendly bark. She was blind to the girl's condition, though it was unlikely Arian was aware of that fact, and nothing seemed to smell off. Natalya smiled, having concluded that she was not ill or injured, and sat down before her. "Arian, it's nice to see you again so soon. Have you been well?"

Arian probably hadn't noticed before, blindness to her usually was silver eyes. Though when she saw Natalya she figured that was the case, and she had never noticed it before. Though not that it mattered, one of her own members in fact, was blind. Though she couldn't help but to let her tail wag back and forth at the greeting. And here she was thinking they had thought of her as nothing. She was glad, that they were okay. "Nothing that will kill me Natalya." she said happily. "I'm just glad you are okay, you and everyone else." Pantheon without a doubt would be a magnificent pack. She could only pray to the gods for the same with her. Even with her past ignorance. "I'd like to make an alliance between my pack Isokan and yours." she settled herself down, sitting in a position that was comfortable. "Talk" "You" Think

Natalya had avoided specific talk of alliances at the festival. She had thought it a more serious conversation to be had when play had ended, but she herself had not made it out speak with any packs yet. Life, of course, had gotten in the way. She had family to watch over and drama (inregardstowehavenoideawhatshappeningwithvirgil&kids) where they were concerned to deal with. It was a blessing from the gods that Arian had come to her with such a simple request. "Ask and you shall receive," she responded in graceful tones with a bow of her head. "As former pack mates, I could not deny you such a request. Would you like to discuss the terms of this alliance though? Perhaps what we would agree to offer one another, visit policies, etcetera."

Arian had nearly been amazed, Natalya was like a mentor to her she looked up to her. And now they were possibly on the same level, it made her heart skip for a moment before calming herself down. Conditions. It was hard to think of those, she doubted that any Isokan members knew anyone in Pantheon. She wasn't so sure about some of the new members though. Exodus kind of reminded her of the black female. "Well what do you think? I haven't made any alliance for the sake of trying to stabilize the pack, and we're still small so I've been cautious." she would like to hear her opinion on the matter. They were only around six members strong, Pantheon had far beyond that. It would be suddenly overwhelming if they pushed things too fast. But she tried not to sound too inexperienced with being a leader. "Talk" "You" Think

It seemed her question was not one Arian had anticipated, but the girl couldn't be blamed for that. She was new to leadership and authority, but she would learn with time. Natalya gave her a soft smile. "I understand the pains of small numbers. Without our children, we would hardly have enough members to keep food in our bellies. We are still in need of wolf-power in our ranks, and we will seek it in due time, but I can tell you our specialties regardless. We will be able to offer strength, for our members will all be trained vigorously in the art of battle. We can also offer capable healers and a home if you or your members are ever in need." "Isokan will always be welcome within our borders, but I ask that we are always summoned and notified first. We do not want to risk attacks by unaware members. Now, what is it that your pack will be able to offer in return?"
