Here to Serve

The young man lifted his head pulled back his shoulders and came to attention as she approached. He’d offer a deep bow as she came to a halt before him, and offered his soft greeting with reverence. Kotori was respectful and offered his thanks as she welcomed him into her home. As she would any of Sirius’ kin. This was different though, this was her Warlord easing the distance between their packs. Maybe strengthening relations as well, she had high expectations for the man that stood before her. Venom didn’t believe he would disappoint her.

He offered up the same words that his father had and Venom nodded her head, he would be here for a season. Protecting her and Ashen in tandem from any threat to their safety. He wasn’t done though, words continued to roll off his tongue. In addition, he offered any of his services in training any of the younger wolves. Venom knew there were a few who could use the additional help. She also needed to help them find mentors.

"I appreciate that, Kotori.” She told him when he finished. "I’ll certainly take you up on that offer.” Venom couldn’t forget their time was limited, for now though. "Come with me, I’ll show you around and answer any questions you might have.” She told him as she gestured for him to follow beside her. "The shrine is rather straightforward, we’ll go around the border so you know exactly where you are.” It was the islands of the archipelago that got difficult to traverse.
