carve your name [challenge]

A challenge? Hmm, interesting. Ren couldn't pass that up - it could, after all, create a new pack, put a new alpha up in Alacritis. One he would need to approach, for certain. So he would detour towards the challenge, surprise flickering in his eyes at the many already present. The atmosphere, too. He'd think a challenge would be an inquisitive occasion, not such a heartbreaking thing, but it was as solemn as the death match. Why was that? Wait. Wait a second. Ren grew still as he remembered that this pack, this pack being challenged for was the one his sister went to. Frantically, his gaze would search out his sister, and he would spot her, loping towards her and slipping in between others. She was glaring angrily at the man who was challenging, a man Ren did not recognize. "Zephyra!" he would call lightly, knowing that no one else would be paying attention. He hadn't seen her since before.... oh god, since before he became alpha. Before Marina broke. He would settle himself besides his sister, and if allowed he'd press comfortingly against her side in a quiet sibling support.
