Hikaru mostly kept to himself so far as he tried to learn the Armada, its lands, and the way of life. He talked to Hanako already, seeing her again had been a vibrant revitalization and she had encouraged him and his growth here. Everything was very different but Hika felt more at home here, and like he belonged, so much more than the lands of his birth. Kaiyo very quickly decided that Mortis would be his friend here in the Armada, and being with the other boy filled his days with smiles. Like nothing he’d experienced with the Iga.
Mortis made this place home, and Hika was determined to prove him right. The koi scarcely knew what he wanted out of life, even having a choice was so new to him. Whatever it was, he wanted to be here, helping Mort as he grew into the great leader Hikaru knew he would be. Of course, they had a long way to go before that day, and Hika wasn’t eager to put any crazy responsibilities on himself.
Kaiyo wasn’t often without Mort at his side, but he was determined to go out on his own today when the heir was off doing his own duties. Hika might have followed him, but he was also half hoping to have a moment to make something for his new friend. Most of his gadgets, bobbles, or jewelry were dismissed by his family and the Iga. He figured if anyone could appreciate his crafting it was Mortis.
He made his way to the less often used part of the Armada territory, with him he carried a couple few items he’d found lying around the pack, the den, or from the day he’d been at the battlefield. He hid the slight blush as he thought about Keetie and desired all the more to show Mortis how much he appreciated him. The koi shook himself softly and made himself comfortable for a little quiet work. He knew this would give him too much time with his own thoughts, but he had a lot to process from the last few weeks.

When Zee had come to bed the night Hikaru had joined, the Warlord had gotten the rundown from his Queen. Mortis had a friend, Zee had accepted him, and he was to be nice! Queens orders. He was interested in the wolf Zee had accepted. The last time she had made the choice, it had been Tamysn, and she had been wonderful for the pack. He missed his friend, in fact.
As he made his way along his patrol route, crossing near the ocean, he caught the scent of this new wolf. Changing course, the Dire trotted along the fine sand of his beach territory. Passing by the training rings used for practice bouts, and bringing the wolf he sought into view. There he was, lying in the sand, tinkering with something. “Hikaru, I presume?”

Hika gently laid out the bits he had to work with. A winter rabbit’s pelt, a couple strands of leather, and a pendant. This wouldn’t be his best work, he had no special companions or appendages to help, but he had a good idea and he was going to make it work. With his clumsy paws Hikaru took the rabbit pelt and began to fold it in place.
About that time a looming figure appeared, Kaiyo brightened considerably as he thought he was looking up to Mortis. He all but wagged his tail before the voice threw him off and he realized this was not the son, but the father. Sirius, the Armada’s Warlord. Hika’s expression changed swiftly, but he managed to keep the disappointment from his features. What remained was a polite grin as he bowed his head respectfully. ”Yes, sir.” He answered without hesitation. Suddenly very aware of the fact that so far, Mortis was the only one to have uttered his first name. "The Warlord, Sirius?" He returned the question.
Not trying to be disrespectful Hika swiftly finished the critical fold in his rabbit skin over the first of his longer cords of leather.
