Chi and Nia dipped their heads to the king. With that settled, the two stood to leave. Carefully they descended from the rock.
The hog squealed under Magi. Savannah followed suit, helping her pridemate hold it down. Whether the apprentice and his mentor were ready or not, she took it upon herself to give a swift killing blow. Best to give a quick end, so she had been taught.
@Mossheart~ no need to apologize. Would rather you get through your finals with ease.
Savannah stood straight, peering at the leopard. She glanced at her former apprentice. "He's still young," She reminded. "Perhaps it would be good to find him a rodent to hunt... Or let him practice on one of us. After we take this back to pride." She nudged the warthog with her paw.
Nia and Chi had begun to descend from the rock when the leopardesses noticed the smoke. Atlas's roar shook them both. Immediately the sisters stormed back up to help thr pride's elders and any cubs.
Savannah turned her head to pride rock, eyes widened. When her patrol was staring at her, she shook herself. "Roho, go to the shaman's tree. Ensure they're safe and stay with them. The rest of us will head back to help the pride." She moved forward, glancing back to be certain the hunters were following.
Shiva could barely see the silhouette of pride rock. However, a billow of smoke seemed to rise on its direction. She waved it off. Yet.. a concern washed over her; for her kin left behind. "Caelan," She called for the lion's attention.
Anan heaved himself to his paws at the king's roar. Joints popped as the elder moved.
Rakan was beaming, his tail and whiskers twitching. Perhaps... He attempted his squeaks again. Closer, yet they still managed to sound identical to a cheetah's odd meows. He frowned at himself.
//Consort is primarily the chief's mate and are meant to assist in the care of the chief's kits. But they can also either be a stand-in second if they're absent, recently deceased, or injured/ill, or, with the healer, be placed in charge of the clan if the chief and second are both absent.
Tawny Spider watched her mate with amusement. Finding him flustered was fun. She stood and walked over to his side, brushing her tail along his flank. "Well, since the patrols are set up... mind going for a wall with me? I could use the fresh air."

OUR HISTORY
| An ancient pack with many secrets and stories lost to time, except for one. Legend has it the wolves of Ellanher are descendants of the god Fenrir. His daughter, a strong and noble demigod named Aditi had met and fell in love with a mortal wolf. Yet her mighty father refused to give her up. War broke out between the demigods and mortal wolf packs. Darkness clouded the skies, and blood stained the ground for months. During this dark time, Aditi had learned of her pregnancy and birthed three half-mortal pups; Athena the wise, Farris the strong, and Ryker the swift. Met with his grandchildren, a shift turned Fenrir's heart. With a thundering howl, the war was halted. Determined to see his new kin thrive, he bestowed many gifts to them and their descendants. |
TERRITORY AND CAMP
| One of Fenrir's gifts was a large expansion of land. It covered mountains, plains, valleys, and forests. One such valley was graciously named after the god, Fenrir's Pass. It lies between Mount Alizah and Mount Oaranos in the northeast. From Mount Oaranos, the northest mountain, is Blerina Falls. It tumbles into Malila River, which flows through the middle of the territory into Lake Iris in the south to southeast. To the far west, Della Plains makes up the west border. | The pack is nomadic and has many dens scattered throughout their large territory. However, the birthing den is always at the heart of their land, in Damian Forest. | Common Prey: deer, elk, carribou | Uncommon Prey: moose, horses, cows, sheep, goats, rabbits | Common Threats: bears, mountain lions | Uncommon Threats: humans, dog packs | Other Animals: birds of prey, foxes, badgers, rodents, small birds, bats, snakes |
RELIGION
| This pack strongly believes in the god Fenrir. After each hunt, they will give thanks to him for the prey. Aditi is also worshipped and praised, believed to be the protector of birth and love. Most she-wolves will pray to her for an easy birth. They believe that when a wolf passes, they may join the celestial wolves in Fenrir's pack and hunt with them for eternity. |
TRADITIONS
| Nomadic, the pack never stays in the same den for more than a month. The only exception is when a she-wolf is close to birth or they have pups younger than five (5) months. They always keep their birthing den in Damian Forest. When a pup has turned ten months old, they will begin training as omegas. After fourteen (14) months, the omegas will undergo a trial in Fenrir's Pass. While the pack continues to move between dens, the trial-goers will be tasked with finding their way back. Those who do not return fail and any that willfully gave up ate branded loners. Though they may have passed and become epsilon by a year, they may not mate til two (if female) or three (if male) years old. A ceremony, similar to a wedding, may be held to celebrate new couples. After death, funerals are held and the dead will be buried facing towards Fenrir's Pass. | Pack Laws: | • Alphas' words are law. | • Killing prey for any other purpose than consumption is prohibited. Always give thanks to Fenrir for its life. | • Any pup sick or injures may not be abandoned, even if they do not belong to the pack. | • Confront all trespassers. | • Do not kill, in exception to self-defense. This may be punishable by death or exile. | • Each wolf may only have one mate in their lifetime. | • Alphas eat first, then the pups and pregnant or nursing she-wolves, then betas and thetas, then deltas and epsilons, then omegas. |

Yay Just wanted to make sure it was fine with you first anyways. uvu
Thank you, hon!
Hollyheart stretched as she left the nursery. There was a small pause in her path as the queen licked some moss off her growing side. Then she moved towards the fresh-kill pile, a smile to her daughter who seemed at odds. "I take it your hungry?" The white cat nodded in response, to which the elder just purred. "Well... Would you care to share something with me?"
Snowpaw's ear perked up. Give it to her mother to be such a caring parent. Yet the apprentice shook her head. "No, that's fine. Besides, I'm sure there's some duties for me before that."
Yet the calico shook her head. "Nonsense! In this climate, you need your strength." Hollyheart quickly picked up a rabbit, settling it between her and the young she-cat. She took a bite then nudged it towards her, Snowpaw hesitant at first.
Squirrelpaw rolled over in his shared nest. Without anyone sharing the space, it had grown cold, waking the poor tom. He blinked. Then he was on his paws, leaving the den to enjoy whatever sun he could catch to warm up.
Tucked inside what was an old fox's den, Cloud curled up tight, as if trying to fight off the chilly breeze. To no avail, as even his stomach dared to wake him. With a yawn and long stretch, he was up and out, ready to hunt for his next meal.
// Kk. Also Cloud(fur) will join the clan a bit later, kinda after he meets Hollyheart at some point.
Squirrelpaw shook whatever moss was left on his long pelt. He yawned, his mouth gaped wide. The flick though caused a quick stop to that. He narrowed his eyes at her, but his ear twitched. "Alright, alright. I'll be there in a second." Slowly he stood to follow his mentor.
Snowpaw took a few more bites of the shared rabbit. Then the rest was pushed back towards her mother. "Thank you, mama," She purred. She felt much better now, more energetic. "I'll help with the nursery later."
Hollyheart nodded and purred, "I'm sure the others would appreciate that." The queen gave the younger a quick lick on the head. "Now you and Squirrelpaw be careful out there, okay?"
With nod and swift lick of her lips, Snowpaw stood and turned. Her brother wasn't difficult find and she was soon trotting over to him and the warriors.
Squirrelpaw sat a little aways from his mentor and the other she-cat. As his sister came up, he gave her a small greeting.
Cloud wandered the frozen land, his pelt offering some camoflauge. He stopped when he noticed a rabbit not too far from him. Instinctively, the tom dropped low to the ground and slowly he began to move forward.
// Btw, if maybe Blood or the patrol would like to find Cloud, maybe after he wanders too deep or something?? Idk. Up in the air for whoever would like to meet him first.
Snowpaw and Squirrelpaw waited patiently beside their mentors.
Cloud pounced on his unsuspecting prey. It took last minute for the cottontailed creature to notice him before he had it pinned. It squirmed beneath, but the life was quickly ended by strong bite to its neck. A squeal then it laid still. He didn't take his time eating. Moons taught him to always be alert for danger, creatures that may attack for whatever reason. He devoured it. Once finished, its remains were buried. Then the white tom was on his way, the scenery filling more with pines as he continued.
Hollyheart finished her own meal, burying the bones and fur. She glanced about the clearing again, catching some clips of the kits and her mate's conversation. Amused and interested, the queen stood and wandered to them. Her tail brushed the leader's side as she sat beside him. "You seem popular today. Pleads for apprenticehood again?" Not that their own weren't the exact same as the ones before him now. Honestly, part of her wished she would be able to mentor one of Fallingfoot's kits. Mentoring and warrior duties would have to wait though.
Minutes of wandering, there seemed to be a strange scent to the area, Cloud soon came to realize. Many cats, but faint. Though one stood out, something different from these ones. An icy-colored gaze searched the forest. Not as though it was hard to notice such a bright coloring against brown and green. He blinked. Who was he, he wondered. At first the loner had instincts to leave, unsure of this stranger and his motives. Civility though, he thought as his paws carried him towards the fallen trunk. A bound of ease and he landed with feet firm on the tree. Carefully he climbed, only to stop a safe distance away. What to say was lost to him, as he raked his brain. "Um... I hope I'm not trespassing...?" Perhaps he was, and that was an oops on his part.
Squirrelpaw's ears pricked forward, listening intently to the older she-cat. Though to warn them about bigger predators, it struck him as odd. The two were fairly large cats, or at least taller than most. He about felt a little offended by the lesson.
However, Snowpaw intervened her brother's thoughts with a nudge of the shoulder. Her round blue eyes looked pointedly at the warrior. "Because the belly is a weak spot and being smaller, it gives us an advantage point. Right?" She meowed, curious of that was right or not. At least, she remembers something about the belly always being a weak spot for any animal.
The tip of his white tail flicked, yet Cloud merely shrugged. "That would explain the strange scents. Didn't think cats would actually live out here." Even stranger, he thought. Though it was interesting to say the least. "No, I'm just passing through--" He paused. "Well actually, truthfully I am looking for someone." He doubted he'd find her here though. It was so cold and even he felt it through his long fur. Then again he could be wrong.
