REGIUM DISBANDMENT
01-23-2015, 02:46 PM
Athena immediately knew something was wrong when she heard Drashiel's call and heard the tone of his voice. Dread sank into her gut and she glanced toward Amalia and her boys, giving her wife a concerned glance before hurrying to arrive at the meeting that Drashiel had called. She wouldn't wait for her small piece of the family to come with her, instead hurrying ahead with the hope that they would follow along. Something told her that something grave was amiss and she needed to find out what had happened as soon as possible. The first thing she noticed was that Roman was missing from Drashiel's side. She came to stand next to Talvi, her split tone gaze fixed upon her half-brother. He would quickly explain what he had called them together. Her eyes widened with pure shock and she fell back onto her haunches. Dead? Roman was dead? It was almost impossible to believe. Roman had been a crucial piece to shaping her young life and now she was gone. Roman had been the one that had encouraged her to strive for greatness and really had ultimately been the reason that she had ruled Glaciem, and later Bevroren, when Isardis left. But that wasn't the only news he had to share apparently. He went on to declare that their pack was now disbanded. Her sister was dead and now she and her family had no home as well. Anger flared in her gut. She wasn't angry at Drashiel so much as she was angry at life and how it seemed to never stop crumbling around her. She had just gotten stabilized again after loosing Vereux and now this. She wished Drashiel had come to her before doing this. Maybe she could have taken the pack back, maybe they could have worked through this together... But, as they say, hind sight is 20/20. There was nothing to be done about it now. Her sorrow and shock kept her silent as Drashiel turned away and lead his children away. Where would she and Amalia and their boys go now? She had never lived anywhere other than this pack. She was born and raised here, she had been a ruler here. She turned her gaze to Talvi, her ears falling back against her head. She pressed her cheek to her blue-hued sister's neck, leaning into her sister's comforting presence. "I have to go tell Amalia and the boys. We've got... we've got to figure out what to do." She leaned away again and stood, her gaze grave and heartbroken. "I'll let you know what we decide, okay? You're the only one of my siblings that I was close to that I have left... I just don't want to loose you too." The smallest twitch of a smile would touch her muzzle for only a moment before she turned and ran back the way she came, trying her best to keep herself together at least long enough to get back to her wife and their children. |
