A new star is born

Though she was no longer a student of the stars, that didn't mean that she wasn't an admirer. A bit of childishness that still clung to the young warrior was the love of those stars. Even her phrasing reflected her enjoyment of the night sky. "Stars above..." she uttered as her father shooed Mojito and Naiche away. "It's been a very long day." As Sirius kissed her cheek, it was difficult not to smile, but she tried. Smiling would only rip open the wounds atop her muzzle. She would definitely have some scarring there as a reminder of what she'd won today.

Sirius apologized for Magnus and Aslatiel gave a light shrug. Even that hurt. Naiche had done a number on her neck as well. "He was torn. This wasn't his home anymore." She could understand why Magnus was lacking, but he had dishonored himself and her as well. Because of him, she had been forced to hurt another wolf to prove a point. It should have been the pair of them battling to compare skill and prowess. No others needed to be involved. Thankfully Naiche had stepped up. It proved to her that he was a true friend.

Congratulations were given and the young woman nodded in acceptance. "Our numbers aren't as great as they once were. We need fighters; wolves to protect what's ours. A lot of training is in order." Tall grey ears tipped back for only a second as she fixed her father with her amaranthine gaze. "I would like Naiche to be my second in command. I trust him wholly." That was her way of asking for her father's approval on the matter. Naiche had shown that, not only was he an able fighter, but he was willing to do what needed to be done for the good of the pack and its members.
