Today was the day! Selene was hopping from one foot to the other in barely contained excitement. Mumma said she would be starting her apprenticeship today! She had gotten up early and everything so she could meet her auntie Andromeda! They were going to be patrolling the market in the early hours before all the vendors got there and while they set up! She was super excited! The market was really overwhelming and loud for her when it was the height of the day and activity.

When she finally spotted the elegant and soft purple wolf Selene bound up to her all excitement and joy. One day she wanted to be that pretty and soft.

"Auntie Andy! Today's the day! Right? What do we do first?" She asked with boundless energy.


"Speech"

First, there had been the plague that had driven them from the mile high woods and then strange occurrences had popped up around Boreas and Auster. Yet, no matter what happened, life always seems to move on. When it had come to Andy’s attention that one of Basilisk’s and Ignita’s children had taken an interest in learning more about marketplace, the lavender woman had quick to make arrangements for said pup to become an apprentice to herself. After all, one of her main duties is to patrol and keep the neutrality of the marketplace.

It is early in the morning, the sun barely having crested the horizon, when the purple woman makes her way to where she will meet up with Selene and, to her surprise, in spite of the early start, the pup is already there waiting for her and eager to boot. A wide grin pulls at her lips as the small pup bounds up to her, the youthful joy and excitement infectious as Selene greets her. Reaching down to offer a gentle nuzzle of greeting, Andy warmly says, “Well good morning Selene! Glad to see you are excited to start the day!”

Once their affections are expressed, she steps around the small pup, inclining her head in a ‘follow me’ fashion as she begins to walk the pair toward the market. As they move, the lavender woman lays out their plan of action, “Well, first we will take a stroll around the marketplace so we can inspect the stalls and make sure that everything is ready for when the vendors show up to set up their individual stalls. Then, when the vendors start to show up, we will offer our help to anyone who might need an extra set of paws to get ready and, once the day really kicks off, we will start our patrols.”

Pale blue eyes look down at the tiny pup as she raises an eyebrow and asks, “Any questions so far?” A gentle smile is on her face as she pulls the crystal spurred pup out into the open area where a few wolves are already beginning to appear and stake claims to stalls.
