a time to come together [Empire Festival Opening]

Indigo followed after the inhabitants of the Hallows, his own head held high as he led his sub group, the wolves that would eventually make up his band. His group of future Nomads. Gypsy was settled in the fur of his mane, he wasn’t about to let her walk all the way here and he knew that she would be more comfortable with him as long as possible. The rest of the band would be there to watch over her when he had to step into the ring, but until then Indigo would keep her in his fur.

Massive black paws carried him to the head of the feast to also give his greeting a reverence to their Host. He never truly felt any loyalty towards Ashen but he grew up watching his father serve the Empress and he had trained with her and his father when he was very young. He always thought Azure was closer to her anyway. Indigo tried to force his late brother’s memory from his mind. This was a time of celebration, not sorrow, and he’d do better keeping his thoughts on the present. He did wonder if he would finally get to introduce Aslatiel to his band, but he also tried not to think too heavily on that outcome.

Indigo led his band of misfits before Venom and gave her an awkward bow so he didn’t disturb Gypsy. ”Empress. Thank you for your invitation and hospitality.” He offered rather quickly before leaving her to the next upcoming guests and making himself and his wolves a comfortable place near the rest of the Hallows.
