The majority of the pack consisted of younger wolves and pups, she herself still wanted to learn more and was certain that F?li, Sorrel and Cerise wished to as well, not to mention that her own children and her younger siblings probably would want to learn, or she hoped they would when the time came for them to begin honing their own skills. More teachers, different ones teaching them different things would likely be useful for them and so she had a plan.



Leaving the children with Frith, she stationed herself at Fontamo Bay, a mid point between Sawtooth and Abaven. There Novella let out a call for Song and Bass hoping that the pair would like her idea. She liked the thought of their packs being more involved with each other as well, she didn't know her nephew all that well nor the members of his pack. Now was a chance to change that and not lose any contact with the non-Destruction members of Sawtooth. The only thing left to do for now was wait.

The song that called for Bass was one of Novella, his aunt that he did not know too much about. He had been there at the wedding, but other than that there wasn't too much contact. He had no idea about Sawtooth or what had happened with Ludicael, but he was sure that he was soon to find out. The Bay was very close to his lands, it took him no time at all to answer the howl. Still a gentleman, he paused at the borders and let out his howl, the scent markings still fresh. He had no idea that they had laid claim to these lands, or why it was Novella that was calling him here today. Ears perked, he waited a few more moments before following her scent, her orange marked face soon coming into the boy's sights. His tail wagged as he stepped forward and pressed his nose to her shoulder before stepping back. "Greetings Novella. I don't mean to be rude, but why is it you who called me here today? Where are Nana and Papa?" He asked, his head tilted to the side. The poor Azat was not as up to date on his politics as he should be.

Bass would be the first of the pair to arrive, closer to the Fontamo Bay lands it seemed than Song had been or perhaps her sister was also having trouble pulling herself from current motherly or even pack duties. She was sure Song would arrive soon enough though and in the mean time Novella would wait to greet her nephew as he appeared. It was a shame that she hadn't gotten the opportunity to get to know Lyric's children all that well, she was sure they were just as wonderful as the rest of her family was however.



Despite the lack of familiarity, Bass would still greet her warmly a brief touch to her shoulder with his nose and she would mimic the contact with a soft touch of her own. "Hello Bass" She would respond warmly, a small smile growing at his confusion. It certainly was a rather confusing situation even for those involved, it'd take a while for the rest of the politics to catch up. He would question immediately about his grandparents now, wondering where they were.



"They've retired from leading, properly this time." They had retired once before, arrived in Alacritia and taken Ludicael from Song, that wouldn't be repeated again however. With Dutiron's back on the mend she wouldn't mention his injury that he had sustained, there was no need to worry Bass, she would however bring up her new siblings, not sure if Bass had heard about his new uncles and aunt or new cousins. "They're finally relaxing a little more now, spending time with the children."



Those details were perhaps the easier part to explain however, now was explaining why she was here and they were still awaiting Song. It wasn't too difficult to get head around it all though it was a rather big change. "Song took charge of Ludicael again, though the pack was getting a little overpopulated and so it has been split into two. Song is currently still leading one half, Sawtooth and Frith and I have taken the second, Threar." She would stop the explanation there and let everything settle in, waiting to see if Bass had and further questions on the matter.

Song would indeed be slightly held up as she heard the call fall from Novella?s lips, the Alpha was on the southernmost side of the hotspring, tending to Novel. Still, she?d catch wind of Novella?s call and curiously she would heed. Arivae would be left with her father and the border would be finished by another of the pack.
Eventually she would arrive to the sight of her sister and nephew, a smile on her face but trouble in her mind. She?d just found out about Novel?s attack and it was good that she?d be brought before Bass as well. She would greet both of them with a soft nuzzle as Novella finished her explanation of the pack?s split. "Hello, Novella, Bass." She would sit back, curiosity on her features as she left her news for later in the meeting.

His aunt greeted him with softness and he returned her kind smile, his tail twirling behind him a few times. It wasn't often that he was able to speak with his family, his own pack kept him rather busy. She went on to tell him that his grandparents had retired, and that... wait what? What children? He tilted his his head to the side, even more confusion claiming the brightness of his golden gaze. "Nana and Papa had children? I have aunts and uncles younger than me?" He asked, although awe was mixed into his vocals. He did love pups, he had taken a liking to Hajime's when he left them behind. And now more family! His tail wagged with all new intentions, a grin growing on his maw. More pups! He would have to make sure to go and meet them soon, making a mental note of it as Novella spoke on.

His tail slowed before laying flat as he took in the information about the pack splitting, thinking of Chrono and Esper, who had been turned down and headed his way. This would be a good thing, more land and more area's for their growing family to settle. "It seems like Destruction's own most of the East than." Bass said, barking out a happy laugh. Another scent washed towards him, and he turned to see Song pad over and nuzzle him softly. He returned the gesture, pressing a soft lick on his other aunt's shoulder. "Greetings Aunty Song." Bass' vocals were soft, that smile never leaving his maw. Copying his aunt, he would look towards Novella. "So why have you called us here today?" He would ask, head slightly tilting to the side.

Bass would be rather astounded by the news that he now had some new uncles and an aunt and rightly so really. It had been quite the shock, though it had certainly been a rather difficult arrival of the children, a fact that she cared to try forget about though it had been rather impossible to do so as she anticipated the birth of her own children. Such details would be spared of course and she would simply smile and nod her head, confirming his guess was correct. Of course there was more to tell than that however; "You have new cousins as well. Frith and I have had children too." She would declare rather proudly. They were still so wonderful in the joyous mother's eyes. Song could inform him of the newest cousin he had gained through her, she'd let him process that news first.



As for the Destruction's owning the East she would chuckle softly at the comment. It certainly seemed that way, the lands all so close together and frankly Novella wouldn't want it any other way. If they couldn't be one giant pack then the next best thing was the situation that they now had. All they had to work on was making sure they all still made the time and effort to keep in touch with each other and hopefully her idea would help with that.



Song would shortly arrive, something seemed slightly off about her sister she thought though Novella wouldn't question it immediately, instead simply nuzzling her in greeting as she joined them. "Hello." She would respond softly. The hellos out of the way though and Bass would be quick to prompt about business. No this wasn't quite a casual conversation she had in mind, and they'd probably guessed that by the fact that only leaders were gathered.



"As you've guessed aside from the getting caught up on details there was a reason for calling you here today." She would comment with a small smile. "It's a little bit of a selfish request in some respects, Threar is somewhat lacking in teachers at the moment and of course I want the entire pack to improve their skills. I know that you've both got some talented members within your pack and I thought perhaps we could share teachers, it'd be a way to bring the members closer together as well, clearly we're a little out of touch right now." She certainly didn't meant the final comment in a nasty way, she and Song were probably equally guilty, there was likely some news Bass could share about Abaven and though she wasn't quite aware of it yet Song already had some news as well, although far from as happy as the topics she had informed Bass of.

She?d get a gentle hello from both Novella and Bass as she made her way before them. She would let herself focus on Novella as Bass would quickly bring them to the matters at hand. There was plenty of time for talk after Novella had her peace. She?d try to let a smile play on her face, but she was afraid it might look too out of place on her worried features. Novella would begin, bringing up some very valid points, they were too disconnected and such sharing of teachers would not only befit the single packs, but the whole of the Destruction empire. She would nod approvingly, there were no disagreements from her. "It seems like you?ve come up with a rather beneficial idea Novella. Have you thought of how to organize such events?" Would the teachers travel around or would the students? Would all three packs gather together?

Bass listened intently to what his aunts had to tell him, although he couldn't help but let his tail wag behind him. So many new children running about! He had to come and meet them some time, but he tucked that thought away as Novella began to talk. Ah, so it was teachers that she was seeking? He himself was in need of more healer training, what with Harmony vanishing most of the time. A deep frown took place on his maw, but his head nodded regardless. He had strong fighters and able messengers, experts and delivering news without being seen. He nodded again when Song commented that it was well thought out, pushing his own worries aside as he noticed just how different Song looked. There was something wrong, but he would not push his aunt into telling him what was going on. "We have been rather out of touch, and I do think that we should have a meeting together at least once a season. I would like it to be more often, but you both know how it goes with running a pack." He said, managing to smile softly at the two ladies. "I would love if we set up a large training session with all members from our packs, but like Aunt Song said, how would this take place? Would we take turns traveling to each pack and have different sessions hosted on the different lands? Or should we all gather on neutral territory?" Letting out a puff of air, he waited for his aunt to explain before he went on with his own news.

"Abaven is in need of more healers. I'm not too sure where Harmony has run off to, but she has left rather untrained herbalists. We have plenty of fighters though, as well as messengers. Also, Rhythm has found her way to us, but Chord still is against settling down." He couldn't help but laugh at that, he was fairly sure that he would never quite settle down. Motif had been much like that, but the two of them had always been closer than the others.

Novella was glad to discover that both of them thought it a good idea and Bass would even venture on to suggest a regular meeting for the packs. That too would be good, even if there were no official announcements to gather the three packs together would certainly be beneficial for strengthening the bonds between them. They were all so close together in location, there was no excuse at all.



As for where to hold the lessons, she certainly hadn't gotten that far. "I hadn't exactly planned that part out." She would admit to the pair. "Threar is a mid-way point, I'm happy to have you all visiting though I don't want it to seem like we're trying to steal all the attention with this. Another alternative is that perhaps they could be held in the lands of the pack the teacher is from. It means your members may have further to travel to lessons in some instances though so the choice is yours."

Bass was a smart young man, she was very much proud of her sister?s son and would hope that Dhiren would be such a talented leader someday. He?d allow them his own idea, of a more frequent alphas meeting and she would nod, "All six alpha?s should meet like this regularly, I agree. Though I?d have to suggest that the teacher is the one to travel to the students." All in all it seemed like a much easier solution than the whole of the pack traveling. "Though all three packs experiencing a lesson at once seems a bit much." lots of students and not so many teachers, if they were to have the focus and attention they?d need it was better to keep the students mostly separated. Of course, "Though i?m sure we wouldn?t turn away those that wished to attend despite their home pack." They could mix and match if they so desired, maybe if they?d missed a lesson in their home pack? ?I also have news for the two of you, I didn?t want to bring such dark thoughts to the beginning of our meeting." She?d take a deep breath and look at the pair of them, "Novel was raped in the range not very long ago. We know his name is Lel, he?s mostly white with purple eyes and a black tail tip. You?d do best to watch out for him." She didn?t have a plan yet, so would not be forthcoming with such thoughts. Still, her family needed to be warned.
