CHANGE COMES LIKE THE TIDE

Just when it was believed that war was upon them, with them making the first strike, all would dissolve into nothingness. He felt strangely empty, and yet, Suka was glad that no blood needed to be spilled. He was more than willing to give his life for his home, indeed he was, but he was not so eager to see the lives of his packmates be put on the line. The tan male had particularly worried for Gossamir... she was a fae who had become such a good friend, one of his original reasons for making this pack a permanent home. Now his hope lay in keeping his sister here, somewhere safe, until the day could come where he might be able to face down the demon that destroyed their family.

The male would arrive to find some members of the pack gathered, but Haruka was not among them. The male would tip his head to the woman, ears perked as he looked around at the rest there. Some were not with them... it was sad to say. August was even requesting to leave them, and Ritsuka would be sad to see him go. But Ritsuka knew his duties to his home... and he could not be so easily swayed to leave. It worried him that his sister was not here... but he prayed he could speak to her at another time on her absence. He would seat himself beside another woman, a white fae with a brown head, and gave her a smile. "I'm sorry I haven't properly welcomed you to the pack. Azalea right?" He would then look back to Roman, a look of respect in his eyes. "Lady Roman." He would then dip his head, waiting for things to begin.
