I Will Burn Your Kingdom Down, If You Try To Conquer Me And Mine [Eclipse Empire]

Moonlight spilled across the terrain, flickering into shadow for a moment as Griff's form passed in front of it. Ashiel's companion was flying as high as his spirits. He'd done it! He'd bested the mortal alpha and his felines in battle on a night drenched in moonlight with his family bearing witness. Even now he could see the pride spreading across his mother's face. It made his chest throb with the rush of it… though some of that could easily have been the pain from his injuries. Reason dictated that he get them tended to but he would not stop until he reached the canyon where he was born. The canyon that would become his palace.

Slipping through the woods into the mouth of the canyon he gazed up at sheer red cliffs that seemed to hum and glow. Griff shrieked and caught his attention. As his verdant gaze turned skyward his eyes narrowed at the moon which was taking on a red glow. A lunar eclipse?  Ashiel stood for a moment, taking in the sight, knowing that as the night wore on it would shift toward totality. He saw it as a sign that his work had pleased the Fallen god and it struck him with sudden inspiration. He would call his pack the Eclipse Empire!

Tipping back his head he howled to the heavens, a powerful call that echoed off the canyon walls and summoned to him any who wished to join as well as those who just wanted to see what the new Emperor had planned.
