My new home

Walk | Talk | Think Rune's thoughts were decidedly optimistic as he led the black and white male toward his new home. It was not everyday that he managed to convince someone to join Secretua, and while it was something he knew was imperative to the survival of the pack he still found great difficulty in opening up his borders to the homeless. Too many already had joined only to leave shortly after, some without even a word to him that they were through with pack life. His trust had begun to deteriorate and his patience to thin, but here was someone who harbored the responsibility and strength of character that he had admired in the wolves of his mate's first pack, and he hoped to see those traits grow now that they were being put to use in Secretua. They passed through the pack's border and into safe, protected territory, and the Guardian felt himself relax as he looked around for any sign of his pack. How would they greet this newest recruit? Would he fall right into place, like a missing puzzle piece, or would he clash and cause trouble? He hardly seemed like the troublesome type, but he had long since realized appearances were deceiving. Ravine spoke up, voicing curiosities about the pack, and as he began to lead them into the dense vegetation of the Gulley, following paths that seemed to be nonexistent but were very familiar to him, Rune attempted to answer. "You should know that we strive to be a self-sufficient pack," he explained, "not just in regards to associating with our neighbors, but between our members too. Everyone has a talent, and they're needed to find that talent and put it to use for everyone's benefit. In your case, that's hunting." Or at least he hoped; Ravine had yet to be tested. "You'll be working directly with our hunting adviser, or Huntress, Akemi. Don't let her size fool you, she can hold her own." He had seen that first hand, and knew that the pack's borders were safer for her strong dedication. "We're mostly comprised of my family, Akemi's family, and a few friends of my children," he added, trying to keep the mention of his kids' friends neutral. They were older now than they had been when they had joined, and they were good at pulling their weight; he had less to complain about them now. "You'll likely be seeing them around." If they did not seek him out directly just to inspect the new pack member to appease their curiosity. The thickness of the foliage remained constant, but Rune never faltered or showed indecision as he continued to navigate his homeland, his ears turned to listen for Ravine to make sure he was keeping up. "Was there anything else specifically you wanted me to explain?" |
