Someone's been busy! [Amon]

Lazy wandering had grown tiresome, and while she appreciated the quiet, she missed her children. Being honest, she missed Amon more, and hoped to see him around again. So far, she hadn't seen or heard of the shadowy god since the children were weaned and she set off to feel free again. Still, despite it all, she was a woman who loved her family and missed them. It was winter again, and the dark woman couldn't take her self imposed separation any longer. Perhaps, an old haunt would help. She made her path down from the falls toward the cathedral-like thicket where so many pleasant memories had been made. Upon arriving, she caught something different on the winds. Amon's scent was literally everywhere, and she gave a grin. He had certainly come up in the world, as he had said he would. Finding a stone to perch on, Naamah giggled to herself and looked up to find Corvus coming to land in a nearby tree. Surely the god of shadows wouldn't keep her waiting long.

Amon had buried himself in tasks the moment he had set foot on the lands they would transform in the foundation of their Empire. He scouted the border night continuously for several days, familiarizing himself with every nook and cranny of their most vulnerable spots, and those where their borders were strongest. The natural features of the land seemed to favor him in this, and his mind was alight with ideas for the most ideal sentry points and ambush locations. He ate when he could and slept only briefly, far too concerned with the tasks at hand, which also included making sure the rest of his kin settled into some sort of quasi-peaceful structure. Suffice to say, when Naamah's scent was carried to him, this train of thought shattered and was quickly replaced by surprise. He hadn't seen the woman since their children had weaned. It was not something that bothered him; in fact in many ways it had made her the ideal broodmother, and Amon was both surprised and a bit disturbed to find himself nesting a slight affection for the woman. She had produced strong, healthy children, both of whom were impressive specimens fit to carry the name. Also, her cutting sarcasm and blasé attitude was sorely missed these days. He paused in his trek and looked from side to side, nose lifted into the air. Following it, it was not long before he came upon the shadowy woman. Her subtly mismatched eyes were alight with a subtle humor, and he looked up to see Corvus was in attendance as well. Amon looked over his shoulder to see if Gulo had followed him as well. Indeed, the dark-coated wolverine clambered over a gnarled tangle of roots and perched himself on top of it. Gulo curled a lip at the woman once he noticed her presence. "Welcome back," Amon said to her, tone friend and warm... Well, you know, warm for Amon anyways. It did not bother him in the slightest to find her within his borders unannounced, but he wasn't sure if she intended to stay or was simply visiting. "How fared your travels?" He considered howling for their children but wasn't sure if she wanted to announce her presence or not, and decided to leave it up to her. Walk, "Talk" Think |

There was a familiar shifting of shadows that created a most delicious thrill as the beast appeared. Her mismatched gaze going instantly molten as she looked him over, black tail curling around her paws as he greeted her, Amon's bright blue gaze ate up her form as hers did to him and she gave him a warm and cordial smile as he spoke. She ignored the wolverine that followed him, only because he didn't seem to be happy at her presence. "Thanking you, Amon. I am being happy to finding you again, travel was good, but I am maybe being used to crowding of family now." A small laugh escaped her before she continued."I am missing out it is seeming. How is Liyah and Gaios, I trust they is being well looked on?" She wasn't quite ready to admit she wanted a home beneath his shadow, having never been in a pack before, but the children were a good reason to stick around. "I am tired with roaming and the lonely. You have places for me, yes? I am knowing many secrets of Auster, I am being most best asset for empire building...I am thinking, anyway." Her tail waved hopefully beside her and steel blue paws shuffled like an excited pup's. There wouldnt be any further mention on her attraction to the shadowy god, but she had been thinking hard about him while she walked. He already had something of a soft spot for her, she could see that much, just by the way he treated others in comparison to her. What if she could make that more? Lilith laughed heartily in her mind, but seemed thrilled by the foggy line of thought. Still, she would jump the necessary hurdles. Was there a place for a wolf like her in his ranks?

A smile curled onto Amon's lips as he noticed Naamah appraising him. He knew that within a few years his body would start to ache and weaken, but for the time being he remained sturdy and strong. The exertions of the past season had been enough to cut away any excess weight Amon might have gained in the past year of rearing the whelps, leaving only the well-muscled godling beneath. He quirked a brow. Naamah remarked that she was perhaps missing the sensation of being with a family unit of sorts. It certainly wasn't what Amon would have expected of the woman, and he himself quickly reappraised her. "Of course," he replied to her questions about their children. "Both are healthy and strong. Liyah has a brilliant, cutting intellect. Gaios was at the very least graced with a level temper and his own sort of quiet cunning. I worried that he might not have the mettle for battle, but he was keen on making an impact in our conquest of this pack." Naamah claimed to be tired and lonely, satisfied with her time spent in the past moons but wanting to come find her place within their Empire. Amon reflected that he personally would be glad to have her, but he could not help but be concerned about the circumstance of it all. "I believe you are correct, I think you would certainly be an asset to the Empire." There was no doubt about that, after all. Amon would not have bred with her if it were not the case, and the children they had produced ought to be proof enough of the Fallen God's favor should anyone contradict it. "But I cannot promise you any rank except that which is earned. Of course, this isn't to imply you would expect such treatment, only that certain members of my kin would use any excuse to question your ability given that you do not share our lineage." It was a simple fact, and Amon would not expect Naamah to have thought any differently. She had lived with their clan for long enough to know their habits and ways. Despite being god-touched in her own way, Naamah would appear mortal to them before anything else, and it would be better that she be prepared for it going in. "What role would you see yourself filling?" They had a strong need for both scouts and hunters, though he knew Naamah was capable in the arts of war as well. Ultimately it would be her choice. Without pups to feed at present, lack of designated hunters was not as dire as might be. Walk, "Talk" Think |
