Friends of a feather

Nodding slightly as Shaye described her own pack's nature. As she went on, his smile grew from the normally thin and difficult to see upturn of the corners of his lips into something much more obvious that reached his eyes and lit them up a little brighter. "I think our packs will have very similar attitudes then, that's very good to hear. Fyri needs friends like that." Maybe it was the faint glimmer of his bio-luminescence that made his face seem to almost visibly light up with hope, or maybe his expressions were just more lively given his normal, almost scowling look he tended to wear when relaxed. "A good deed need not be returned if it's truly good. I help because I want to," he said, looking faintly embarrassed even as he tried to maintain a regal posture. "I'm not certain where I'd begin anyhow, we have several needs to attend to since things were put together in a hurry..." Turning to see the faint movement of the previously stunned bird, Ig distracted himself for a moment being glad that the creature was turning out to be alright. "I suppose our most pressing needs will be food and herb related - we don't have enough trained hunters to take down as much prey as I'd like before winter, but we have plenty of herds of elk and caribou near us. If you could send a few hunters my way, once we reach a reasonable store of food I would be glad to send any extra back with them." A faint breeze blew past, ruffling his fur and adding to the sudden sense of urgency he felt regarding winter. Keeping the pack well fed and protected through the worst of seasons would be important. If someone were to seek to harm them it would be when they were weakest. Once they made it through though, there was much he wanted to accomplish. "If all goes well, maybe in spring we can arrange some more trade? I know a fair bit about crafting useful things, using fire, and making structures not too unlike those left behind by the humans from long ago. My intention is to one day build up an arena in the gorge so Fyri can host the gladiator battles and events I grew up with. They were very important to my people, and all our allies will be invited to watch once they begin." Initially he'd been wary of including that in his pack. He and his siblings were raised with the sounds of battle and fierce competition from the arena, but the other pack members, especially the northern woman Drifa, might have more difficulty understanding and adopting some of the fierce southern ways. "If you wish for me or any of my pack members to visit your pack for teaching purposes on any subject, ask at any time and it can be arranged." |
