Beauregard · 10-15-2023, 10:13 PM

Beauregard had taken it upon himself that morning to get busy preparing for the colder months that were to come. That meant preparing a fire pit, a place the pack could use to not only prep food but warm their bodies. He had chosen an area close to the main dens, but far enough away from the collection of trees that he felt safe enough to prepare it. The first matter of business was to prep the land, and Beau had spent the better half of the morning digging, resting just enough to get a new wind, and back at it. His paws were aching, but he was making progress. He wanted the pit deep, in part as a safety measure in case they ever needed to put the fire out instead of letting it burn down. That left him to mound the dirt nearby as well. But he was getting there! With a few more days of work, if he worked along, it could surely be done. Especially since he was keen on making sure his partners rested right now.

A call at the borders caused his ears to perk and Beauregard lifted his head. A newcomer, a potential member for their kingdom. He turned away from the pit. He wasn’t exactly presentable, but in his opinion a leader needed to put in just as much work, if not more, as their members did in keeping things running. He set off for the border at once.

As he drew close his tail rose behind him… but the gentle sway of it back and forth was in greeting and happiness. His blue gaze looked over not one, but two women who were waiting for him, taking in their states. The albino woman seemed to be having trouble focusing, which was a touch worrying, but the man brought no judgment with him. If they sought a home, he would freely give it to them. “Good morning, ladies.” He tipped his head to the women. There was the faint, familiar scent on their coat… one that caused Beau to arch his brows in surprise as he realized that it was from the very land he stood in to claim.

“You were part of the pack that fell…” His voice dips in understanding, the Artifex’s demeanor shifting. “I am sorry for the loss. I am Beauregard Ravenwood, the Artifex of the Kingdom of Norad.” If they had lost their pack then they needed a home, right? His expression softened. “You are both welcome to stay with us as long as you would like. Please, what are your names?” His normal spiel about the pack was pushed aside in favor of offering hospitality this time. That felt more important… and maybe revealed just how new he was to the whole alpha business.
