a shield in the snow (Tortuga)

Qanik was worried.

The political situation outside Tortuga was unstable, and Tortuga was not as united as it must be. They were not a family, merely a collection of individuals living in the same lands and that was not acceptable. With Roman pregnant and their newly promoted ranking wolves strangely scarce Qanik would take it upon herself to do something about it. She was, after all, an alpha.

Padding her way into the lake region where there was more open space than their other lands, the white elder sent out a call for the pack to join her there for training. Everyone was welcome, but if those who professed to be fighters - and hunters too, for this training would benefit them in their different form of battle almost as much as it did the fighters - did not appear, she was not inclined to be forgiving of it. A strange shifting moodiness was directing her these days, and she could not speak for what would happen if someone didn't show up or deliberately slacked on their training.

She paced restlessly as she waited, so different from her usual calm demeanor.




OOC: Same as Ebony... This is going to be a very fast thread - a deadline of three days for initial posts (due 2:00 PM on Thursday July 24st) and then once paired off three days to start the spars. If you miss a deadline there will be IC consequences. Once the spars start the defaults will apply and again there will be IC consequences for slacking off.
