He wanted to believe things would have gotten easier when he became alpha. That was obviously not it. Rivaxorus was glad Nixie and Ren had come, with his brother in the pack even more so. Now though, considering he had decided to keep himself neighboring Fiori he wanted to check up on Leo to see how he was. He worried about him ever since Svet had gone missing - but his mind had been wrapped around his work so he never had a chance to say anything. Besides Leo had been there for him when he was feeling down hadn't he? How was Razor, aunty amalia. These questions filtered through, but he also wanted to confirm the alliance he supposed he and his uncle's pack would have.

Raising his head at the border of the mangrove he let out a howl. It felt so close as his paws still touched ground with the outskirts of the woods. Blue weeping willows swaying behind him, the bi orbed male supposed his mother stood like this at one time. He blew the thought out of his head, taking in a deep breath as he stood there. Standing tall and proud, could they see him now?

Much sooner than he had anticipated, he heard Riv's howl calling for him. His head lifted to listen with pleasant surprise for a moment before he turned to trot toward the border to meet him. It was still strange to think that Riv had to call for him now and that he no longer lived her. Honestly, Riv was welcome to come and go as he pleased as far as Leo was concerned, but he knew he had to accept that Riv had a pack of his own now. He spotted Riv's larger frame soon enough and his tail wagged behind him, a smile touching his lips. "Riv!" he called cheerfully, trotting up to his nephew and leaning in to press his nose to Riv's cheek. Leo was an affectionate wolf anyway, but he couldn't help himself after seeing one of his family for the first time in a while. "I'm glad I didn't have to wait ages to see you again, nephew," he added with a chuckle as he took a step back to settle on his haunches, his tail still brushing against the ground behind him.

It never really took Leo long to answer a call. Rivaxorus knew that much, smiling as he watched his uncle approach. Welcoming the touch from the smaller male, it was quiet funny to think Leo was older than he was. Pulling back his ears for a moment to the affectionate gesture he decided as well to settle on his haunches. There was no use in standing if he didn't need to. It wasn't as if he and his uncle were strangers after all.

"Yeah I'm just glad things went at least a little bit smoothly for my first meeting." he laughed a bit tilting his head to the side. "I need to work on my public speaking skills a little though." He could only imagine what was to come. He had a bit of variety in his pack members, watching them interact was going to be an interesting matter that was for certain. This was not a test run, the real thing was harder than he imagined. Yet he wasn't going to learn either way. "How are you?" Rivaxorus asked, deciding to keep it vague rather than. How are you feeling, what about the kids, what about his aunt's? What about Razor?

Leo was glad to hear Riv's first days as an alpha were going well. He chuckled and nodded in understanding. He remembered the first meeting he had called vividly. He could only imagine what it was like for Riv with him being so young and starting a pack from the ground up. At least Fiori had already been mostly in place when he took it over from his mother. "Not to worry, it'll come with time. My first meeting was a bit awkward as well," he assured his nephew with a smile. He had all the confidence in Riv to do great things.

Leo's expression grew a bit sad when Riv directed the attention back toward him, his shoulders rolling in a small shrug. "I've been fine I suppose. I'm lucky to have Amalia around to keep me in check. I still don't think my pups really grasp what's going on, but they've been as understanding as I can ever expect from pups so young." He pulled a smile back onto his lips with a soft sigh. "But I can't keep moping around. I've got to move on at some point." Wanting to push past having himself as the topic of discussion, he asked, "How are your members looking so far?"

His ear twitched a bit, it would come with time. Rivaxorus was only just recently painfully aware he was still only a year old. There was a lot to step across, he watched Xephyris and he was jealous. The thought made his jaw suddenly clamp shut, he couldn't act like a hurt puppy just because he was a little hurt by a small bit of space. Though that was something personal between he and Zephyra. It wasn't as if much had changed, but she needed time. The queen needed time. He had to understand that much.

As Leo mentioned his children, well it made him think of himself. "I wouldn't sell them too short. Coming from someone who had to grow up fast - my brother vanished and we still had a slight grasp of what was going on. I think it's just, they don't want you to think that it's causing them trouble. Also... it depends on how strong they can be." he smiled a bit. Every wolf was different with at least that much. Leo was right, moping didn't get you anywhere. He could tell that much from a lot of wolves.

"Great! A few loners I spoke with before decided to join me, Hera and a blind wolf named Armai. I'm rather glad because Armai is a healer - I was afraid Myriad would be without and now she can teach Jackson if needed. Xephyris brought a woman to the pack, she can't speak english though so he asked me personally if she could stay. Then.... Zephyra's brother Ren and her sister Nixie decided to stay..... I still need to talk with Ren - last time he saw me I was arguing with my sister." His ears flicked. "They're all quiet different from each other, but I'm positive we'll manage."

Leo took his nephew's advice about his children to heart. Riv had more experience with the subject than any other wolf he knew after all. Perhaps he was right, maybe he needed to give his children more credit. After all, given the circumstances they were doing pretty well. Only time would tell how it all played out. He nodded thoughtfully in understanding. He'd have to keep that in mind in the future... and sit his children down and see if they could talk it out. Thus far he had gone with the approach of assuring them everything was okay and that Svet would be back soon, but it was quickly looking like everything wasn't okay and she probably wasn't coming back soon.

He listened with interest as Riv explained the current dynamics of his pack. He chuckled softly and nodded. Besides the drama around his friend's family it seemed that they would be okay. "I'm sure you're right. It seems you have the opposite problem than Fiori. It feels like all I have is healers." He laughed lightly and shrugged. "We have to work with the hand we're dealt sometimes. But I'm sure it will work out fine. And if nothing else maybe we can work together to get everyone trained properly, hm?"

The male hoped he was right. The least he wanted was for his cousins to have a bad outlook on life. Rivaxorus had seen it with Holly, so there was that outcome to look out for. Then again, their family had anger running through their blood regardless. Rivaxorus laughed when Leo mentioned he thought he was just full of healers. Oh well then, it was true the hands they had been dealt had to be worked with. He fully intended for Myriad to make their members grow and blossom.

"Sounds like a plan, after all I'm always looking to better myself and I want the same for my members." he commented as he frowned for a moment. "Do you know how Razor is doing?" Rivaxorus wasn't aware yet that his brother was sick. Yet to find out is what he needed to know. He cared deeply for his siblings and maybe that was one thing about him that would never change.
