The crowd seemed tense. Archon held his ground. There was no doubt that the pack held their reservations about him to their selves. So far, only one spoke out. It was the girl from before, Caelestis. Archon assumed the woman by her side was her mother. Archon listened as she asked what Abaven got in return for his presence.
"To put it simply, you get to keep living your lives here in Abaven as a benefit. Originally, we had our eyes set to dominate this pack. My brother, Malleus, however was led here when your alpha helped him after he was wounded. Because of her compassion, my brother decided that we could perhaps extend an equal act of benevolence."
Archon thought it made more than enough sense. They could have just spared Sparrow and let the rest of the pack fall into whatever circumstances arose. Archon was sure they would have never stood a chance against his family in their current state, but he had more tact than to say that out loud.
"My brother appointed me to be here. If we need the land or resources, we have them, but we don't have to disturb the natives of the land. For me, personally, I hope we are able to exchange information with many of you. I have not yet experienced a normal pack life, so this is all new to me. This will allow you all to better understand my family as well. Though it may not be as much of a gain for Abaven just yet, you also aren't forced to lose anything, which was the original plan."
Archon thought he explained it well, but he couldn't help but feel like his answer was going to stir more animosity. He still tried his best to not mention gods or mortals since many mortals didn't take kindly to those types of words. He was here to foster a pack relationship. Though the time would come to speak of God, now was a time for calming the waters before diving in.
