Félicien was caught off guard by Frith's praise. If that wasn't enough, the fact that the man asked him if he would accept the rank of Mystery in their pack was even more of a surprise. It wasn't just a better rank, it was a leading rank. The young man knew they needed wolves in their higher ranks, to teach the younger and less experienced about the tasks that they needed to survive. Féli would close his eyes, breathing in. Was he really worthy? Was he ready to take on such a task? The young man could really only wonder. Sure he had done okay with helping the pups but... Félicien would silence his own thoughts.
Why would Frith ask if he wasn't sure? Why would Frith offer the rank to him if he thought him incapable? Félicien would open his eyes, giving a slow nod. "I accept the Mystery Rank." The boy would give a small, sheepish smile. "If you really think I can do it... then I shall give it my all for Threar. I want to see our pack thrive and continue on." The boy would dip his head, ears giving an embarrassed flick. "You know Frith... I... uh... Thanks... for everything."
