Here to Serve

Though there was conversation with Venom it hadn’t stopped Kotori from paying attention to details on the landscape.  It would be sloppy to ignore the entire point for this tour and be a horrible way to start his stay here.  

Kotori was glad at Venom’s response in more than just the fact she was willing to teach him some details in leadership versus just Kotori working for her.  There had been no sign of surprise at his decision to attempt leadership and he likewise wanted to strengthen his own ties with Ashen.  Certainly, this was one of the packs he was most keen on keeping good ties to.  Ashen, Hallows, Elysium, and Armada were all the packs he wanted to ally with.  There were other packs to consider but he would need to know the packs better before he just jumped into any agreements.

They could wait on talks of an alliance until Kotori had proved himself by achieving the role of alpha of his own pack.  There was no reason for solid packs to agree to anything on simply plans of one young wolf with nothing to show, yet.
There was something else he wanted to ask, but it was still a painful subject that he might save till it was time to return to his own pack.  How often do alpha’s use their kid’s as means of creating alliances?  Unless one wanted to toss numerous kids it couldn’t be the way it was always done.  Dad hadn’t given up any kids to start up alliances as far as Kotori knew.

“Thank you,” the response was sincere in regards again to the lessons. “As to protection, I can start off the morning and evening with patrolling the land.  Then other times of the day to lessons for whoever wants in or spending time with at any time that best works for you.” He could shift up his schedule however she wanted of course.  This was just an attempt to make sure she didn’t feel a need to constantly tell him what to do or worry he wouldn’t spend his time working.  He had more to prove now than just a good connection with the armada.
