New Season, New Chances

Odette's ears perked at the hastily added comment about the Destruction family. She couldn't help but smile as she let a spot of sunlight appear in the darkness that had been relayed to Novella's family history. "That is definitely good to hear, then. One cannot last long in the dark without the hope of light being there somewhere." Odette knew that both of her families had been through their dark times, but sunlight had always found its way to their destined paths. Novella listened with rapt attention when Odette described her home and then she voiced her interest in visiting in the future. Her tail wagged behind her with each step she took beside Threar's Author. "I would be more than happy to have you share such times with me whenever you are up to handling the cold shoulder of the North." She gave a happy wink as they walked, followed by a soft giggle as they continued on their uncharted tour of the pack. Smoothly, Odette slipped into the part of the conversation she had anticipated since getting to know Novella better. Her hostess seemed interested enough so far; she hoped that she would not disappoint. "Glaciem was once ruled by my father, Gargoyle. He became King by having my great aunt pass it down to his paws. For a long time, he ruled, and he chose to live in the North since his pack's members were all used to the climate." So far, she seemed to be doing well. "Papa ruled with a strong upper lip, but his values for his pack were good and family-oriented. From what I have been told, he was a good soul and Mama made him stronger as a man..." Her smile slightly faded and she softly continued. "Mama and Papa were having their second litter when the crown was challenged for..." A soft sigh slipped through her lips as she continued. "Papa fought my Aunt Eos and lost, somehow...I don't know how he did it, but it happened. They had to move from where they had lived and then moved to the Northern coast...I was born shortly after my family became rogues. While I was growing up at the beach and travelling everywhere at a young age, Glaciem was handed over to an acquaintance of my Aunt Eos and Uncle Syrinx. His name was Isardis and his demeanor was one that craved power and women...He was greedy and had no real love for anyone. With that type of man in charge, Glaciem's reputation turned sour and his reign was one many despised." Odette looked at Novella with a gaze that now resembled a sad pup's. "I hope that since Glaciem's rulers changed its name and started anew, I can bring back the good reputation that came from my father's reign. Not many wolves remember him or when he ruled, but I do hope that in time, I will make him proud of what I create with the same name he had so long ago." The sadness slowly changed to happiness again, and whatever negative energy remained slowly left. Her smile reappeared and she cleared her throat. "Forgive me if I rambled a bit, Novella. I am just sooo ready to show the world, and myself, that I can do this properly. I have always wanted to be a ruler, even when I was a pup and living on the beach...I had my own sand palace."
