Bells of War
The girl continued to peer across the border, looking for signs of any sort of arrival. Thank god she wasn't left waiting long! Almost immediately, a form of which she'd never seen came lumbering from within the pack, Arian's brother she guessed, since that's who she said was alpha here. To confirm this, the stranger gave his name as he approached, and she would dip her head in a hasty greeting. She wasn't one to be impolite, but the matter at hand was extremely important and urgent. His questions were quick, obvious concern for Arian in his eyes. By this time, she managed to catch her breath so she could talk calmly instead of seemingly scared, though she was a bit frightened about the possible events to come, she was stronger then that. She was tired with showing fear to the world.
"I am Avalon, one of Arian's cabinet members, and Arian is fine...for the moment." She sighed, wondering how this had all panned out. Sure, they were all furious that Imperium had disrespected them the way they did...but what did they expect to happen? To waltz into Sonticus borders and not expect any repercussions? No, lately with Arian's mind seemingly changing alot...it was expected. Those who had noticed were furious...though she still wondered why and how, Imperium had been left to wander around their home unchallenged. Avalon herself had been out on a hunting trip in another territory as well as refreshing the markers, but someone should have been there...and now it had come to this. "Sonticus had some unwelcome trespassers recently, all from Imperium...according to Arian, it was Valentine and some others I didn't recognize, and they desecrated our lands! They came in and performed a deed so vile, especially with children around by "fooling around" in our home." Emphasis was put on the phrase "fooling around" as anger returned to her gaze, "And now Arian has sent me to seek out Fiori's aid." She stared Leo eye to eye, fire burning in her eyes laced with a hint of fear, but this was her task. And despite her fear at a potential siege, it was her duty to her pack. "Arian wishes for the aid of her brother. She fears Imperium will come back and disrespect us and desecrate our lands or steal our home as if they are entitled. She wants to wage war against them. Will you help us?" |
