My new home

Walk | Talk | Think Ah. Yes. That did seem like a viable question, all things considered. His own pack history was rather colorful with the changes in leadership and packs that he had undergone in his lifetime, so Rune knew just how tricky acquainting oneself with the hierarchy of a new home could be. "Well, to keep it simple, it's all broken down into tiers," he began, continuing to lead them through the dense Gulley, "The first tier, which is the Command Tier, is responsible for external affairs. That would be the Guardian - me - the Warden, and the Heir. The second tier, the Liaison Tier, deals with internal affairs. They are the Caretaker and Peacekeepers. The third is the Advisory Tier, and they are responsible for managing the fourth Task Tier of the pack. The Sentinel manages the Guards and Scouts, Huntress manages Hunters, and Healer manages Medics." Rune hoped he was following so far. He paused momentarily when he noticed they were nearing their destination, and glanced slightly over one shoulder to make sure Ravine was still there before continuing. "Medics, though, are actually grouped with the fifth tier, the Protected Tier, along with the Youth and Elders. And lastly there's the Watched, composing the final Probationary Tier. Only those who need to prove themselves or have wronged us are assigned that rank." Now within the den site, Rune led Ravine out toward the center location, stopping to turn and look at the new Hunter properly. "This is our densite within the Fern Gulley. A majority of our members choose dens around this area, and most of our meetings are conducted here. In that direction," - he gestured southwest with his muzzle - "is the Algoma Prairie. You'll find most of our good hunting grounds there." Rune was certain it was the most he had said to another individual in a long time, not counting the chats he had with his mate when they caught up after their busy days. Had he forgotten anything? Should he have included anything else in his explanations? "Did that answer your question?" he asked, hoping at leas the gist of it had been retained. He did not want to repeat it all again. |
