In Disbelief, I Didn't Know (EBONY)

*Baldur* · 06-28-2014, 06:59 PM

More wolves filed in and Baldur waited patiently. He could feel Linne? sitting next to him, giving him a reassuring nudge. He was about to leave his family to join a pack he barely knew to keep an eye on kids that might not be his after all. What was he doing.

"Something kind. Your brothers are adults, Baldur they can look after themselves and their families. Trust them."

Pfft. Trust Loki? now that was an amusing thought. But she did have a point. Who was he to tell anyone how to raise their family? Hell, Loki was doing a far better job than he ever did! Baldur waited patiently for the meeting to start and his fate to be sealed. He didn't know what he was getting himself into but the truth was, he wouldn't have it any other way.

A male healer offered to help patch up his would and Baldur offered a nod and smile of thanks for the offer. He really needed to quit letting himself get so beaten up all the time. It really was a wonder he'd managed to live this long. His eyes trailed to a young pup that looked a lot like Raisa only slightly lighter in color, she had to be one of Sigmarr's siblings for sure. He tried to offer a reassuring smile but if felt out of place coming from a wolf who was a stranger to her? and a bloody, beaten one at that. Another pup caught his attention a black one with mismatched eyes though her mood was even more sour. Raisa? what the hell had prompted her just up and leave like this. And if she was pregnant from him why the hell didn't she try to find him. A stab of anger burned at his gut but was almost instantly melted as another of Raisa's pups emerged from the den with a bunch of cobwebs for the healer. They didn't deserve to have been abandoned like this.

The meeting started and he nodded to Katja as she welcomed him to Ebony. A clan wolf. He was giving this another go after failing at Valhalla. Sprits above or whatever force there was in the world, he prayed that he would not fail again. "Thank you, Lady Katja." He'd picked up the name from Sigmarr and hoped he was addressing her correctly. She spoke of Raisa's leaving and of Valeriya's abscence. He felt a sting in his heart that one of the pups was gone. Sigmarr had told him but even so? the ranks were words that sounded familiar to him and he found himself wondering if this Katja was from a similar area to himself.

He waited for a moment then spoke. "Lady Katja, I thank you for welcoming me into Ebony. As said before my skills lie almost wholly in battle. But I would seek to do more if I'm able. I knew Raisa. I wish to help you in your task to care for Ebony and for her children."
