A mound of fresh dirt rose beside an older barrow near the lakeside now, and though he'd wanted to stay beside his brother's final resting place he made the short trek to the rock garden. He had to do one last thing as alpha before he could be free of the Ebony legacy. Dragging himself up atop the meeting rock his mother had used so often, that he'd used so often, he closed his eyes to say goodbye. Goodbye to Sigmarr, to Ebony, to the life they all could have had. It was over. Lifting his head, he gave a mournful, quavering howl calling the pack together one last time.

Nikolai lifted his head and turned his gaze toward the sad howl that was Kassander's call. His brows pulled together with concern, but he wouldn't hesitate to hurry forward to answer the summons. He slowed to a stop as he neared the rock that had become the gathering place for all of their meetings. The expression on his alpha's face was not one he understood. He settled onto his haunches and waited for the others to arrive. He didn't speak, instead just giving Kassander a small nod. He hoped whatever it was wasn't too serious... He knew he had mostly kept to himself, especially after they had returned from the siege, but he still cared for his pack mates and hoped everything was alright. It wasn't often that he let himself become comfortable around others so it was a rare thing indeed for him to care about so many wolves like this.

Max had not spoken to Kassander since he had asked for permission to move his den. Hell he hadnt spoken to much of anyone but he had spoken to Sigmarr between then and now, granted he had also talked to Callisto's cat...the little thing didnt really count. He had tried to do what the alpha had wanted but no one ever wanted to talk to him.
When he arrived at the place were Kass had sent out his sad call for Ebony, the man was surprised to see that only Nikolai had arrived before him. In seeing the expression the younger male, who called the meeting, wore on his face Maximous became more concerned than the initial sound of his voicw had made him. "Kass whats wrong?" he would ask with a worried tone.

Something was wrong. Svetlana could feel it in the air as she heard the call of her brother, of Kass, and she would look at Korrin with a worried gaze. She had seen little of her siblings lately... and guilt ate at her. Since the war she had been off by herself, trying to think of ways to better who she was. In secret she had begun to take lessons from Korrin, to mold her mind, her ways of thinking. The only way she was going to get better was to practice, right? It was perhaps that healer meeting that had truly opened her eyes to this, and the female would rise, fox companion in tow, to heed her brother's call.
The smell of fresh earth was upon him, his look downcast. Svetlana would frown deeply, approaching his side and ignoring the alphaship role that he currently held. There... there was something seriously wrong. She would give a low whine, pressing her head gently into his shoulder, trying to offer him some sort of comfort. Beside her Korrin would settle, her gaze gentle as she looked upon the young man she had also grown with.
"Kass..." The young woman would say, seeking answers she was afraid to hear. Sigmarr's scent was upon him... and death... but... her other brother was not here.

The sound of Kass's call would startle her awake, it wasn't the sudden noise that had brought her back to consciousness no it was the sound of her brother's voice. That all too familiar sound of complete and utter loss. He didn't just call for the pack, he called to her heart. Gods, what had happened? She could feel the fear rippling through her before she even stood, her form would tremble as she slipped from the entrance of her den. Freewing would chirp as he found her shoulder, Gaia's movements were quick as she made her way forward.
She could smell the same as Svetlana did, there was death on the air. As her form drew more near to Kassander their missing sibling's scent was present but growing stale. He did not stand among them. She'd try to repress the whine that lingered in her throat as the pieces of the puzzle fell into place, but Svet had beat her to any word she would utter. Timidly she would sit, ears pinned to her head as sightless eyes sought the ground, the silver orbs welling up with tears even before anything was said.

She had lingered beside the barrows where her sister and her student rested side by side, as Kassander left to gather his pack. She offered up a prayer to the gods to carry his soul swiftly to Valhalla, to Auora to guide him and watch over him as he joined his ancestors in Odinn's hall. She offered up, too, a summoning howl for her family to join her. But she could not long tarry there, and she moved to join Kassander at a lope. Coming across the slowly swelling crowd around the Xanilov boy, she slowed. Rather than join the group in front of Kassander, or interrupt his siblings by seating herself beside him, she halted some feet behind him and lowered her haunches to the ground. Sweeping her silver gaze over the group, she simply observed silently for the moment.

Hearing the howl on the wind, and recognizing it as Kassander's, the russet female's ears stood straight up on her head. It sounded... sad. She shook herself for a moment to clear the sadness that threatened to drag her down through the howl. Lifting her head back, she answered the howl with one of her own. It held a tune of sadness, but was mostly neutral in tone. She could tell from Kassander's howl that something had happened, but she didn't know what had happened. The male had kept to himself lately, judging from what she'd heard from others.
Lifting her paws in quick strides, she raced from her position towards the source of the howl, and the mingling scents on the wind. She quickly reached the meeting place. She glanced around the gathered wolves before spotting Nikolai. Her muzzle split into a grin as she trotted over, tail high in the air. She bumped her shoulder against his before greeting him. "Hey Nikolai." She said with a smile before asking a question of him. "Any idea why Kass called us together?" She asked, her demeanor growing serious where it was happy before to see her friend and guide.

Nikolai is allowed in any of Aisling's threads, regardless if they are private or not once they become best friends ^^ They more than likely will always be close to each other.
