Simple & Clean [Pack Meeting]

She waited a few moments for everyone to settle before she cleared her throat and surveyed the pack. "Thank you for coming everyone. It's nice to see everyone gathered! I must admit, I'm a little nervous about this, but as this is our first meeting as an official pack, we've much to discuss." Her smile widened as she looked at her brother, a feeling of happiness and excitement mingling together. "I would like to start with welcoming my brother, Galahad. We've not seen each other since we were children, and I am very happy he is here. Galahad, meet your nephews; Dragon, Kharnage, Gryphon, and Lykos." She pointed out each one in turn, a feeling of pride welling up in her chest.

Now, onto the official business! She flicked her ears, wondering where to start. After a moment of thinking, she figured she would start with the pack laws and ranks. (See pack page for rules, etc.) "Now, onto the important business. There are several things you should know about the rules, and why certain ones are in place. The one I would like to address, is the no names law. It is not in place because we are hiding, but it is in place for the protection of all members. We all know there are others out there who will use certain information to use against, or harm any one of us. We are a family now, so protect each other as you would your own blood." Her gaze swept across the pack, making it a point that it was one of the many important laws that served to protect the pack.

"Now, about the ranks. Most of you are ranked as Natives, and my children are ranked as Generations. I give you the opportunity to request what field you would like to choose. Warrior, hunter, scout, and Herbalist fields among others are available. I know we are small now, so I'm looking into finding mentors to train our yearlings in their field. If you would like to be a mentor, please state it and I will begin pairing. If we are short, then suggestions for potential mentor programs with another pack may be an option." At this, she looked to Abelinda, wondering if the woman would be interested in mentoring someone should they choose a path of healing. As far as she knew, Abelinda had been the only one to voice that it was her field upon joining. The others? Most likely warriors and hunters.

With that said, her voice took a more excited tone as the next announcements were ones that, hopefully, would have the pack sharing the excitement with her. "I'd also like to put out there, that our first bi-annual festival will start in the winter. The caribou run will be an event that will give us the opportunity to work together and bond us further as a pack. We will hunt the herd before they leave for the winter, and celebrate our successful hunt with a feast. It's a time to get to know each other better, as well as our allies who I will also invite." Wow. She couldn't remember the last time she'd talked this much, but as an alpha it had to be done and to keep the pack informed. She knew they would learn it all in short time, but the first meeting was usually the most important right?

As her gaze swept across them, she would stop to look at Lykos. It was a hard decision, really. But so far, he seemed most capable. He had been faced with many hard decisions, his loyalty to his pack had been admirable, and she hoped his loyalty would be just as strong here. If not, well...at least she'd given him the chance. "One other important thing, I've decided to name Lykos Ancora as the Heir of Ivalice. Alot will be expected of you should you choose to accept, and you'll still have a choice in your field as well. It's your decision, however." She smiled at him, pausing to allow him an answer before continuing. "If anyone has comments, questions, concerns, ideas, or anything else. Please, now is the time to speak up, or you may talk to me privately after." With that, she gave the floor to the pack so they could say their parts.
