the lies we weave
YOUNG AND A MENACE
The male was not fearful, as he should be. Frustrating, in a quiet sort of way. Putting him in his place would be decadent. However, the godling knew better. They needed information, and they needed the strong forces of the clan to bring down an empire, even a small one such as this. Rushing so foolishly into a battle would only earn the ire of the clan, and the loss of said battle. "Nice to know that Pyralis is spreading the news that my pack resides here. I was not aware that your...clan lived in Auster as well." The male said, diplomatic of tone. Scrutinizing the structure behind the man, the deity wondered what could have borne such a thing. They must have it. Own it. Claim it as their own. It was fantastic and lavish and so blatantly gaudy that it called to them all at once. A shiver ran down their spine, quivering in the muscles of their limbs and begging them to move on it.
Attention would snap to the male, mismatched gaze of fire and ice fixed upon his features. Distractions, distractions. "Yes, we have been gathering a little ways away. A family this large, it takes time to gather everyone up, you see." A soft smirk, cocky and fearless. An unabashed wink, tossed out as carelessly as a rose to the matadors. Rustling feathers, like always. It was more fun to leave anxiety in their hearts, to fret in the calm before the storm. Nervous wrecks piling onto the battlefield were easier to slaughter, like innocent lambs.
"Talis has been here for almost two years now, we're the only pack in Auster and have been since our arrival here." The leader insisted. Ah, so he was no fool. He offered up words to his own strengths. Smart boy, he was. A soft hum of contemplation, coupled with a bob of the head. "I see." They rumbled, eyes sliding partways shut for a moment. "This is quite the territory to hold, it appears. Auster is magnificent, and untameable- as nature always is." They crooned, vaguely turning their attention to the surrounding area. They truly enjoyed Auster, and had found Boreas to be favourable as well. Who was to say they couldn't aid the clan in finding footholds there, too?
