Learn to live with the unimaginable

His time spent away from the Hallows was unexpected in the least, though he wouldn't fault others for assuming it of him. The other pups that he was supposed to call his siblings hardly wanted him around and he wasn't sure about the rest of the pack either. Grimshaw would be the first to admit, only to himself of course, that he should have tried harder with the other pups and packmates. Of course, he wasn't even certain that would've gotten him anywhere. He was the black sheep of the family and he wouldn't blame anyone should they not have accepted him had he actually tried.

Although his absence from the hallows had been for a few months, Grimshaw found himself close to the border of the pack to hear Ulric's call from the castle. It struck him as a little odd to hear Ulric calling for a pack meeting, but the man was of a high rank when he left so perhaps calling a meeting every now and then was something he did. Grimshaw had hardly a reason to assume anything had changed, but figured that since he was close and a meeting was being called, he should attend. Perhaps maybe it was time to force himself to be better for the pack. Maybe try to become friends with a few of the pups he called siblings. Maybe find his place within the pack.

Grimshaw sighed and trekked towards the sound of the call, slipping through the castle doors and into the meeting hall. Ulric sat at the front with Artorias, Dunkan, and Jane nearby waiting for the rest to arrive. He thought it was a bit strange that Tamsyn and Resin weren't there, but again, assumed that perhaps this was a meeting for Ulric alone. Perhaps something about training or some minor announcements that they tasked him with instead. Carefully, hoping to not draw attention to himself, the massive young man found a place at the edge of the meeting hall to sit and wait, keeping to himself.
