ooc;; next round will start WEDNESDAY the 21st of NEXT WEEK. old Seracia members can rejoin here but if you don't post you are free to go without an issue. new members can come in freely here and check it out as long as they behave. new members will still have to talk to Vi or Desiree afterwards. It was about that time. Everyone was here. Even Sibelle had managed to find Vi again and had showed up at the boarders a few days earlier thankfully. The children had all come and settled, they had even found a new den of sorts dug into a hillside. Whoever had owned it before had also had a large family so it was spacious enough for Vi, Des and the 5 children. It also made her feel kind of guilty... But today was the day. Slowly she would shift and nudge Desiree, still moving stiffly though the fight had been almost a week ago. Teeth would nibble along her neck tenderly as she buried her face in the woman's purple pelt. She was beautiful. She was perfect. And Desiree was all her's... "I think we should call a pack meeting... See if any old members are still around and so you can meet Sibelle." She murmured softly even as she lowered her skull to drape it over Desiree's shoulders. She didn't want to leave their den yet but after a moment she would sigh and lift her head again, turning a soft bark to the children to wake them. She wanted them to come as well. To learn. One day one of them would take over and it was never too early to learn. "Come on everyone, let's go rally the troops..." She murmured softly before lifting herself and slipping from Desiree's side out into the sunlight. She had to admit she quite lied these lands. The animals here were ridiculously slow and stupid making for easy hunting, now it was just a matter of finding a good source of water and to meet the neighbours. Long legs wouldn't wait long forget love and children. They weren't going far... The lands were fairly flat so it wasn't like she needed to find high ground to sit atop. Really she only went about 100 metres from the den before plopping herself down and waiting shortly for Desiree and the kids. The pack might as well know where to find them in case of emergency. Head would tip back, calling for old Seracia members, Sibelle and any rouges who might be within earshot who would be interested in hearing about the new pack. Once the howl trailed off... All there really was left to do was wait.

Table by Azil

She had successfully found her Queen and the lands she had claimed. The russet woman arrived several days ago, her first encounter was with some fool having the audacity to try to appear dominant over her Queen. The woman scoffed at the mere thought of it. She had spent the rest of her time searching for a suitable den, which was not hard as there were so many all over the place. Clearly the pack before them had been large. When she finally found one to her standards, it still needed a few alterations. She had been busy sculpting it to her liking, making a bit larger when a call rung out. Slipping from her den, she would shake the debris from her coat as best she could, though it was still stuck between her toes and around her nails. But it could be dealt with later. Creamy limbs carried her off at brisk trot, finding the Queen quite easily. A smile pulled at her lips, dipping her head in greeting. "Hello again." The woman would take her seat, being the first one there. Her mind wandered, wondering who would arrive. She didn't know what kinda of followers the woman had gathered, or if she had family that would be joining. Russet plume curled around her, her thoughts keeping her occupied as she waited. WORDS HERE

It had been a recent thing that the woman decided to return. She had left these lands the carried too many painful memories. She had been weak before. But now things had changed. Ebony limbs pulled her narrow bodice across the familiar lands, audits standing at attention. A call rang out, one that was only vaguely familiar. Could it be her aunt? The red woman had always wanted her life to be a certain way, there was no doubt in the woman's mind that her aunt would take over a pack. Altering her course, she headed south, curious to see what had happened. Bad idea. Don't go. They'll hate you. A growl ripped from her jaws as the voices in her head worked themselves into a frenzy. She didn't know how they has gotten there, but every since the old woman had revived her, the voices had made her head their home. High pitched squeals bounced off her skull, causing her to snarl silently. By now she had learned to time them out, but they still got to her from time to time. The protests continued as she approached pack borders, the scent completely unknown. The call had been an open invitation. She crossed the border without hesitation, using her nose to guide her the rest of the way. Verdant eyes swept across her path until they settled on her aunt. The red woman was beaten and bruised still healing from her obvious battle. "Aunt Vi." Her greeting was stiff and formal as she was uncertain of her standings with the woman. They don't want you! Voices shrieked in protest. The woman remained standing, her face void of any emotion. Talk like this

His tall form would lumber in confidently, tail and head held high as he led his gentle orchid into the meeting. He would wait for Soliloquy and Poem to show their faces before pacing off in Viridiana's direction. He would walk with determination but was careful not to loose physical contact with Orchid. He'd not met another soul within the pack but wished them all to know she was completely his. His bright yellow gaze would first fall upon Vi and her brilliant red cost, still rather upset at her denial of his advances. However such sins would be forgiven as he would take in the sight of the two other she wolves already in attendance. Sly smile widening as he came to approach the scarlet queen. "My dear, you should have said you enjoyed the company of such ravishing women." his maw had found its way to her ear as he took his place beside the royal she wolf. Taking on a louder tone he would introduce his additions to her pack. Nodding to each in turn, "My sister's Orchid and Poem, along with my brother, Soliloquy." she should have been proud to hold such fine examples of Destruction blood under her paw.?

Orchid?s steps where made with pride as she walked beside her brother. It was clear by his touch that he wished for all to know she was his, that she was his prize and she glowed with the thought that she was worth something to her brother. So far there were few wolves here, but even to stand before this many made her legs tremble and an urge come forth to hid behind her brothers form. She may have trembled a little but it was that sense of pride that kept her going. She walked beside her brother, beside him but a few steps below his shoulder to show his dominant position over her.



Her coat glowed with the attention she had given it, she would do nothing to embarrass or disgrace her brother before these new wolves, if it was his choice to join this pack she would do all she could to make his impression upon them a lasting one. As they stopped before the others she would simply lower her head in both greeting and submission to these wolves. If she was her brothers, and her brother belonged to this pack, this made her theirs also did it not?


"Speech"

The crimson princess was awaken abruptly, her mothers sharp bark bringing the young girl out of her deep sleep. A groggy expression would envelop her features as her ebony lids slipped open, her tail flicking out behind her as she moved to stand up and see what her mother was woofing about. "Come on everyone, let's go rally the troops..." Audits would perk curiously atop her skull as the words "rally the troops" left her mothers mouth. Troops? Since when have they had troops, and where have they been this whole time? Her mother would pull away from Desiree, and the crimson nymph would follow quickly after her mother, aiming to trail on her heels until she could walk beside her. She would save any and all questions until after she had seen these "troops" with her own eyes. She still knew little of her mothers victory, and so this meeting and sudden change was very confusing. Suddenly her mother would howl, and the girl would look up at her mother in awe, adoring the power that emanated in her voice. I want power like that... I want to be like mommy. She would think to herself, the faint curve of a smug smirk caressing her ebony lips. Random wolves would begin to arrive, and one by one Fiamette would scrutinize them, wondering what each one was willing to do for her mother and her family. "Speech"

Soliloquy was still somewhat confused by the fact that Scorpion had left one pack only to join another almost immediately after reaching these new lands. Surely there was far more to do and see and yet for whatever reason his brother was set upon this decision. He didn't question it too much, they had recovered now from the disagreement upon the way in which they'd left Uroril, or rather the way in which Scorpion had left him behind. One quarrel was more than enough for now and so obediently he would follow, intrigued as to what about this pack had gotten his attention. Silently the white male would follow behind Scorpion and Orchid, as always a similar pride about his step as he stepped forth with the confidence that Scorpion had taught him to possess. He may have held no power here, but then he hadn't in Uroril either and old habits it seemed would certainly die hard. They would soon enough reach the meeting point and as his brother stepped forwards to make introductions, Soliloquy remained silent waiting with Poem and Orchid.

So this was the pack that Scorpion had decided they should grace their presence with. She padded alongside her brothers and sister, not paying any particular attention to any of them. Her golden gaze raked over each wolf that was already in attendance. To her surprise all of them, besides her brothers of course, so far were feas. Well, no wonder Scorpion was so interested in this Covari place! She smirked, turning her eyes to the red woman that called them together, seeing that her brother obviously had some little thing for her. It was no surprise really, she was a beautiful woman in power. Why wouldn't he? Scorpion would turn and introduce them to the pack as a whole. Poem would chuckle and roll her eyes, mumbling, "Really brother? All the theatrics?" She would part from their little group with a small shake of her head, going to take a seat among the other feas that had gathered, taking a seat near a green eyed, russet fea with a missing ear. It was a completely random choice of sitting arrangement, though she figured she did need to get to know some of the wolves here if she was going to be a part of this pack. Poem would glance at her briefly, giving her a small nod of her head, before focusing on the red woman at the front once more. Speech Thought Others

They had moved, and they were living now in a pack that could truly be called their own. Though Arisu may not have witnessed the battle that her mother needed to fight in order to get them here, to claim this land as their own, she undoubtedly felt pride that her mother was so strong to be able to do such a thing. Her mother was strong, a force to be reckoned with, and Arisu made the silent vow that she would follow in her mother?s pawprints and do the same. Leader or not, she would make sure every wolf, especially here in this pack, would know her name and face.

She would rise with her family, following along behind her mother like a silent shadow. But though she was silent Arisu was far from some submissive, timid little fae who would cower at every little thing. No... She was stronger and far better than that. It would not take long after her mother made the call that wolves began to show their faces. Wolves who did not hold the scent of the pack that once lingered here around them. She would take a breath, looking around at all these wolves. New faces... New things to learn.

Emerald eyes would go over each one, sliding from one wolf to the next in a way that showed she was studying them. Arisu would sit, curling her tail around her paws, as she looked back to the leader of the four that seemed to come in. He would give their names, motioning to each in turn, but she knew not his own. However Poem, Orchid, and Soliloquy were wolves she would certainly be watching from here on out. Her gaze would flick back to the other male. He was quiet, as was the female by the name of Orchid. Poem would speak however, and Arisu would give the slightest of smirks at her mumbled words. She hadn?t heard them of course, but something about that made her want to know more at this woman.

She would break away from her mother?s side, moving up next to Poem and settling herself down. She would clear her throat ever so slightly, the sound on the lower side to make it a little less obvious. Then Arisu would speak, her voice seemingly innocent, though her siblings, particularly Solo, would know better. ?Did you and your siblings travel far?? Simply gaining more information... Knowledge. A tool that could be just as dangerous as fang or claw.

Having chosen a den with Viridiana there was plenty of room for the two, along side the children. Desire? would be woken by a nudge, her eyes opening, though still droopy. Her large triangular lobes that lay atop of her crown would swivel, listening to the crimson womans sweet hum. A pack meeting was definatly in order. With a soft kiss placed upon her lilac fur Des would slink out of the den, following suit. She assumed the children would swiftly follow, Fiamette was already eager to see what was going on, skimming across vi's heels. A smile would pull against her lips, happy to know the pack was forming, melding into a superior kingdom that Covari was destined to be. Her slick frame would meander through the trees, the rippling of the shadows to light on her back shifting with every stride that she took. The Rani would begin to slower her pace, looking upon all the scenery that she was still getting used to. The placid snow replaced with sanguine greenery.

Her paws would make a crunching noise as they press against the golden leaves, a sign of autumn though soon becoming to an end. The days where begininng to become colder as the heat tucks away for the next summer to come, waiting. She would shake her tiara, finally coming into the meeting, brushing close to Viridianas side before taking a seat beside her, awaiting for everything to take place. Already there was many wolves who had showed, not quite to many to begin with. Though happy all the same. She knew no one that had showed apart from the children and her mate. Though it would give her a chance to venture out more to know each individual. Desire? would hold her crown high, hoping that all who enter keep their loyalty to she and Virdiana.

I became insane


with long intervals of horrible sanity

There is a side to everyone. A side that would scare, push away, and worry anyone. A side that held those sinning thoughts and horrid demons. Some wore that side on their sleeve. Some did not. Everyone had their own prospective. It all depended. Some were religious, some not. Some were careless, some not. Svanerna was a new breed. A new creature. She was a luxurious meinx waiting for her next kill. Each paw wore claws ready to rip. He mind let those sinning thoughts run free. It was obvious. It was very obvious. She was born to be a devil. Her dark fur and fluttering lashes. Her obnoxious pelt and lovely hips. Her morals reflected upon her religion and her family. But her family meant all to her. It meant everything. Her darling Jae and Karp. All the others. She was a mother and a Goddess. The woman had her life set in stone, it was perfection but many saw otherwise. Many would view Svan as a monster, as a horror even. It all depended. But, when the woman heard the Alpha's call she hopped at the chance to better her life. The six year old temptress was terribly bored. Her search for her sons was getting old and she knew it was time for something fun. The babe got up from her lounging rock and slipped to the meeting. As she arrived her eyes roamed the area. She saw all sorts of creatures. Pale ones, purple ones, red ones, black ones. The woman licked her lips. Her head was held high in authority, but her eyes never met anyone elses. She knew she held no real authority within the group of little packlings. But, she would warn them. The woman was not to be tampered with. She shifted her gaze to the obvious Alpha and grinned. "I am Svanerna Finnvi, I am here to request entry into your pack. I have been viewing and I enjoy what I see." Her voice was haunting, each word was laced with darkness. She stared at the leading fae without a blink and sat her rear upon the ground.

The boy would stroll into the territory with a confident swing to his step, in the past he had detested the prospect of anything to do with packs, but this one had a whole different feel to it. A lightness that came with Vi?s personality and the tones she integrated into this packs life. He was confronted by all the new faces, and strange beings that stood before his new Alpheas, and he would cast his eyes over the lot of them as he made his way to Vi. She stood, much as he had expected as the head of the meeting with the purple delight at her side. His eyes would appraise the reddened creature first, and a shiver would touch his spine. Since learning that she was mated? to a woman.. every bit as fantastic as Vi herself? it was a lot to take in and bring himself under control with after. As he looked Vi up and down he would cast his eyes to her partner in crime, and smile at the purple creature. It truly seemed Vi surrounded herself with exotic things, and he had a feeling his life within this pack would be nothing if not fascinating.



He would gently lower his head to the two strangely coloured leaders, showing his respect as he seated himself on the earth before the, and cast his eyes once more over all who had come. It seemed strange to see Vi in a group setting, hard to imagine any exchange with her that did not include their usual banter. Perhaps that was why he found himself leaning forward to drop a few words to her ears alone. ?You?re getting sloppy. You missed a spot of raspberry behind your ears ? you really ought to find someone better with the dyes? he said, dropping her a wink and settling back on his hunches once more.

Take anything we want We're going till the world stops turning Everything was happening so fast. First, they had moved, moved out of Ludicael, and to this strange place. So, when her mother said that they were going to rally the troops, Hestia was confused. Troops? What troops? Were they other wolves? Shaking the thoughts out of her head, Hestia pulled herself out of the ball of black and white, and shook her head. A soft growl escaped her jaws. What? She tried to make it 'What's going on', but the pup had just been woke up. Blinking her eyes a few times, to clear her eyes, Hestia pulled herself to her paws clumsily. With her white tipped tail raised in the air, Hestia's narrowing blue eyes catching sight of a white creature, with brown markings around his eyes. After her mother howled, Hestia glanced at Arisu, who was sitting beside a gray wolf. Hestia walked over to the white wolf, Soliloquy, and sat down, her tail wrapped around her paws like a cat's. With a tilt of her head, Hestis moved her head, so that her blue eyes were staring into Soliloquy's yellow eyes. Unlike they had been before, Hestia's eyes were wide, and seemingly innocent. "I'm Hestia Sovari. The red wolf who howled is my mom. Do you know what's going on? I'm afraid I don't know what's happening." It was better to seem innocent than angry with Fiamette, claiming all the spotlight, or Arisu, getting weaknesses. For once, Hestia spoke to make friends. Dangerous friends, strong friends. While we burn it to the ground tonight{Hestia Sovari}

There was a lot going on lately, but the pup was quickly putting the pieces together. He had stuck close to his family, but it would seem that here in what seemed to be his new home, his family held some air of importance that they hadn't had in Ludicael. The boy wouldn't miss the religious pack much, if at all - he was far too curious as to what these new developments were to worry about anything from before. His ears would twitch atop his head, hearing his mother talk to a purple woman about rallying the troops - his mother was powerful, her call indicated that. The red boy would gaze at her, before watching the other wolves come trickling in, none of which he had seen before. His siblings seemed to all be here - spread throughout the area, but he would stay near Fiamette and Viridiana and wait.

Precious babe would awake with a start at his mother's bark, uncurling himself from Arisu's side and allowing jaws to gape in a yawn. He didn't move for a long time, bi coloured eyes following his family as they filed out of their den. Rally the troops? He frowned, head flopping down on the ground as he continued to stare out the entrance and debated following. Was this what he had to expect now? To be paraded out and forced to sit pretty? His mothers howl echoed in his skull and he sighed, white dipped paws pushing him upwards and then out. Tiny body trailed after his family, looking lack lustre and utterly bored. There were a number of wolves gathered and already Arisu and Hestia were attempting to make friends it seemed. For once he didn't follow his russet sister, instead moving to his mothers' sides and slipping over to sit beside Desiree, leaning into her foreleg slightly. Fia seemed to have their red mothers love but Solo was coming to love Desiree more and more. He would remain at her side, watching all the wolves gather around at his mother's call. "TEXT HERE"

ooc;; not really a deadline here, I'll probably post in a week and wrap this up. People can make threads for Des or I and we'll chat and place you in a rank or you can shout out what you want here. Everyone starts off in Tier 4, your wolf can move up in the ranks after that ICly :) Sibelle was the first to arrive, her dear precious Sibelle? She uttered a simple greeting and Vi would dip her head in response. "So glad you could make it?." She murmured easily for the russet woman to hear alone. But whatever moment they shared was soon shattered by the appearance of a familiar face. All too familiar in fact. The grey rimmed green eyes that looked so much like her brothers were startling and yet there was something in them that made Vi's heart stop. For a moment all she could do was sit and blink, heart fluttering in her chest at the sight of her dear niece. She was alive. "Oh Maia? Its so?" Her voice caught in her throat and she had to take a moment to regain her composure, cleaning her throat before shaking her head and smiling easily at the young girl. "I'm so glad your here. We'll have to catch up after this?" She said with a firm nod, eyes locking onto's Maia's as if trying to make her understand that Vi wanted her to stay, wanted to speak with her later. There was so much to say. Scorpion was next, with the siblings he had promised her in tow, walking in like a king and she couldn't help but roll her eyes at it all. She would smile slightly at Maia and Sibelle as Scorpion's family melded in with them, most seemed pleasant. But the one white girl who trailed beside him was curious? Was this the prize that Scorpion had told her about? "A pleasure to meet you all. These are my second in command Sibelle and my niece Maia." She greeted, deciding to brush off his first comment. Desiree would come next, following from the den with her children in tow. No? Their children? Desiree came to her side and Vi would sigh, leaning into her slightly though gaze would remain locked on the growing numbers before them. Next came an older far, introducing herself and requesting entry to the pack. "If you like what you hear then you would be more then welcome to stay?" Vi said motioning for the woman to sit and lend an ear. Lastly Cru would arrive coming close to whisper words that only she and possibly Desiree would hear. "You'll have to fix that later?" She whispered back, chuckling lightly. Her children seemed to separate into groups, Arisu and Hestia content to go meet others while her red children stuck close. Fine by her. She waited a few more minutes before she was content no more would come to attend. "Welcome all, it seems there are no returning Seracia members? I figured as much. Either way, I see many familiar faces and some unfamiliar. I hope to get to know you all sometime soon." She said as she lifted her weight from Desiree so she was supporting her own weight. "This is Desiree, she rules beside me and will be dealing with most of the day to day activities of the pack. Sibelle here will be my right hand woman and leader of the council that will be constructed of hand picked wolves to resolve any issues that might come up. Scorpion is a part of this council and Crucifix here is one of ours beta's who is here to help Desiree with keeping the pack running smoothly." Introductions of the already ranked wolves seemed like the best place to start. And she felt her description of the council was also a good way to describe them for the time being. Best to keep prying eyes from asking questions? "Now onto the pack. I intend to keep things neutral, no direct enemies or alliances simply peace treaties. We don't mess with them, they don't mess with us sort of deal. Eventually I would like to bring some games into our pack, invite other wolves to participate in games. Pit ourselves against them. But thats for later. For now. Prove yourself. I encourage for you all to challenge for higher ranks. Council and Beta's are hand picked by myself and Desiree, everything else is free game. Each of you can speak to me individually and tell me your talents and we can place you in a rank from there. Everyone will be placed in low ranks. If you feel you deserve something higher then prove it. I look forward to see what you all have to offer?" Words would trail off, a sly grin slipping across her lips as she looked to each one of them then to Desiree, Sibelle, Crucifix and Scorpion to see if they had anything to add to what she had said. This was her first time speaking to a group, it felt strange and weird? Hopefully she had said everything that needed to be said.

Table by Azil

Others would flood in, first a dark female that seemed to surprise the Queen with her presence. Besides her, faces blurred together, the woman pleasantly greeting each with a smile and a nod. Then Queens children would enter with a purple woman, her pelt strikingly exotic. Soon enough the Queen began to speak. First she would introduce Desiree, the purple woman, her second Queen. Next, she would be introduced and formally told her rank. Verdant gaze swept the crowd, meeting each gaze. Head of her council. Pride swelled in the womans chest. She had clearly made an impression on the red woman. Introductions would continue until finished, a male being named Beta. The Queen would go onto explain the pack, how they would function, and what they would stand for. An opportunity for ranks would be given to each, only a few ranks however were untouchable, hers included. The woman waited silently, having nothing more to say, though she would seek the Queen would later to discuss her rank further. WORDS HERE

The look on her aunts face was priceless. Clearly the woman had not been expecting her, of even believing that she was alive. Quickly the red woman would compose herself, and the dark woman would return a gentle smile, taking a seat amongst the crowd. She would wait patiently as others filed in, though not as many as expected. Her aunt would introduce her and the woman would dip her head in greeting. She had no reason to care for these people, she didnt know them They are all going to kill you! They will rip you limb from limb! Jaws clenched, biting back a retort to the bastards in her head. Her aunt would go on to make the introduction of the second Queen, Desiree. Kids would surround pair, the bright coats claiming them as Vi's. A few wolves already had ranks, including a man and the russet woman who arrived first. She would speak to her aunt after the meeting about a rank for herself, and more, there was much to be caught up on between them. She would listen attentively, her aunt wanting to keep the pack nuetral. Idly she wondered if her father would join the pack, or even if he was even in the area. She made a mental note to ask her aunt about it later. The new Queen would fall silent, seeming to wait for any questions or concerns. But she had none, anything she wanted to say would have to wait until later, when they could speak in private.

"Speech"

I became insane


with long intervals of horrible sanity

The german babe sat and observed her new pack with delight. There were many odd colored females with spunky attitudes. Oh, the Fnnvi would fit right in. Her luxurious, ebony and red tail, slithered to her side to fluff up next to her leg. Metallic eyes swept from Wolf to Wolf in curiosity. Words and formalities were shared. Everyone seemed to know each other which made Svanerna slightly self conscious. But, the older girl let her head remain to be held high and her eyes were sharp as ever. She looked up for a few moments, acknowledging the higher beings watching her within the heavens. She asked for their blessing before her attention was again capture by her new alpha. The crimson gal spoke to Svan, a simple line of acceptance. The old lady nodded softly. She would not let out any more words, for none were needed. She really did hope the pack would work out, but she would not let her hope inflate to much. The boss lady than began to welcome everyone and introduce the co leader, Des. The woman was covered in a lovely, deep, shade of purple. Svanerna dipped her head to the younger woman. Though, again, no words were bothered. Vi than went on about the order of the pack. All seemed normal. Rules, games, ranks, yada yada yada. She found herself bored, but she would not verbally or physically elaborate about her boredom. She stared at her leader slightly absently and nodded here and there.

Scorpion would sit back, his features doting on Orchid's ears as the rest of the pack filed in. So occupied on his perfect sister that he really would not care about the rest of the occupants until Viridiana's words would address them all. He'd leave one more tantalizing kiss upon his sister's ear before moving his attention back to the lady in red. To find there was also a lady of purple. His eyebrows would raise but it was clear this woman had been claimed by the queen. It seemed fitting, the two looked way too good together. He would try to suppress fantasies of them, instead finding his nails trailing along Orchid's spine. He also had Othello to return to, along with her healthy appetite. The Queens words would do well to distract him as she poke to the whole of them. Her queen was Desiree, and he knew he would do well to remember her title. She would then introduce sibelle, the girl in charge of the council. So he had another wolf he had to answer to? Ears would fall back to his skull but words would not flow from his lips. She was quite attractive as well, so his willingness to obey her command grew. He'd have to speak with the lady soon. Viridiana would go on to address the pack and offer the down low to their operation. He would lick his lips appetizingly as she looked to him for anything to add. He had nothing, so would just nod respectfully as he held Orchid closer. It was about time he saw his concubine again...
