[18:13] * @Saigh had been doing a quick round of the territory's borders, redoing scent markers and ensuring that no unwelcome guests had been through. She had caught the trail of a bear near the southern hills but its scent barely grazed the territory line before fading off once more. Good. It was a wise choice on the bear's part. Pleased with the border check she headed back to the Hollow for the meeting. She weaved through the sea of pelts, nodding and greeting those she passed, slowly making her way to the widest part of the hollow beside the lake. She sat down, her rump on the snowy earth and lifted her muzzle, allowing her baying alto to soar skyward, rocketing the clouds above as she called for the pack to gather in their traditional circle. Side by side until they made a full circle. Friends, Family and Pack all as one.

[18:38] * Cian ears perked to the howl waiting to see the others reactions... [18:39] * Ekaitz (webchat@3b713a33.socal.res.14056255.com.hmsk) has joined #Hollow [18:39] * ChanServ sets mode: +h Ekaitz [18:39] <@Leif> || Ekaitz || Whelp || Unpaired || Gender: Male || "But I thought a king could do whatever he wants." - Simba || Health: 80 || [18:40] (Cian's*) [18:40] * %`Frost` had been attempting to play with Kelais' paw, but then she heard her mother's call and her snowy head snapped up and she ran towards it as fast as her little paws would take her. She slipped and slid a little bit in the snow, but she didn't stumble. She weaved in and out amongst the paws of the adult wolves until she sat before her momma, panting, as she was a little out of breath. [18:40] * +Senan flicks his tail, setting his ears back a little whilst slipping into the clearing, watching as others gather his attention set on the Alphas. [18:40] * @Saigh looked at the sea of bodies that formed the packs circle and smiled proudly. She loved meetings, the energy of the collected wolves always gave her a rush. Murring happily she cast her gaze out onto the pack. Our pack, as many of you know, recently grew dramatically... by ten! she announced. Today, we would like to introduce the future of Kladd`atir, those who are the first newborns of our packfamily. They are now old enough to be free from the den, but as you can imagine, they are not an easy bunch to manage. We ask that as a family, everywolf take part in keeping them safe and out of trouble. Tonight, we will introduce your tiny charges she said, before sending up a short howl, notifying Haezani that it was time to bring those pups who were not present to the meeting. [18:42] * Cian stayed near the outer edge of the clearing piquing his ears so he could still hear the goings on. Hhe would cheer from afar, after all he was still trying to hide the itchy scab he had on the side of his head. [18:43] * Cyote trotted along the clearing, ears perking to a soft howl and chatter while he padded to it's location. Seeing others around he chose a spot amoung them while listening in. [18:43] * Ammorez is now known as Achaikos [18:42] * Cian stayed near the outer edge of the clearing piquing his ears so he could still hear the goings on. Hhe would cheer from afar, after all he was still trying to hide the itchy scab he had on the side of his head. [18:43] * Cyote trotted along the clearing, ears perking to a soft howl and chatter while he padded to it's location. Seeing others around he chose a spot amoung them while listening in. [18:43] * Ammorez is now known as Achaikos [18:44] * @Kazasemi made sure not to be absent from this as he was very proud of his little ones. He padded out of the den with Haezani helping her bring the little ones along and try to keep them in one place - a safe place which was near them. [18:45] * Serenia turned her head, taking a spot by herself in the outer circle watching curiously for the pups that were mentioned with a small smile. [18:45] * +Otsoko had already gathered into the small circle. Upon perking to the iea of the pups roaming about, he gave his tail a wag. He had met a couple of the pups now, and was looking forward to playing around with them. [18:45] * Casanova cautiously looks about the circle, keeping herself quiet and out of the way. [18:46] * @Haezani takes in a deep calming breath when she hears Saigh’s howl, the idea of all of the whelps being out around so many different wolves unappealing to her, but she knew that they couldn’t be sheltered forever. She would smile down at the puppies that were awake, standing and padding to the entrance before chuffing softly to them, “Come on, little ones. Time to meet the pack,” she murmurs [18:46] <@Haezani> encouragingly as she steps from the den. She would wait until they had all followed her out before moving towards the clearing where she knew the meeting was being held. She was sure to keep track of all of the pups along the way, not wanting to be blamed for losing one of them or something. As she entered the clearing with the whelps she would stand protectively close to them, not wanting to seem [18:46] <@Haezani> as if she didn’t trust the pack, but also wanting to be there if anything were to happen; a true momma bear. She was very super glad to have Kazmarez’s help with them. [18:46] * +Adalwolfa settled a few lenghts away from the others watching intently with intrest. [18:48] * %Caskra perked at the noises coming fom outside the den. tiltinng his head and looking up at his mother who stood near him. his tail wagged with excitment as he listened to his mother becon them all forwards. nipping at aeima's paws, he lunged forwards and folloed in his mothers pawsteps yipping happily. [18:48] * %Achaikos had been sitting just outside the den with the others. His eyes overlooking the pack of wolves as he sat there next to his sister and cousin. His heart beat went fast! Beating to the sound of his tail thumping the white stuff. All this excitement and he really couldn't contain himself. So, he followed behind his mother. Following her steps with his head up high all proud-like. [18:48] * %Aeima looked up when the milk giver stood up, padding over to the bright place that was not the den. At her insistence, the pups dashed out of the den, and was surprised by bunches and bunches of bigwolves. She froze, and then scampered over to the black-and-silver milk giver, yipping and squealing her own little symphony the whole way. (Done) [18:48] * Lykaios nods to Cian then pads further into the clearing, tail lowered in respect to the pack and settled down beside the known Cyote, her tail wagged as she perked her ears again, curious to observe the young pups. [18:49] * %Kivanuu toddles timidly at the back of the puppy army, her flopped ear visibly pulled back the best it could with its tip hanging uselessly. She struggled to keep up with the others, wanting to be close to them but not at all wanting to be the center of attention. She saw all the many big wolves and practically froze into the snow, her tiny mousy frame stalling uselessly until she realized she [18:49] * %Kivanuu was being left behind. Peepling in concern she looked to her Aunt, who didnt seem worried... that helped... a little. She peered over the backs of her siblings and cousins, her wide blue eyes taking in the many wolves who she would come to know. [18:49] * @Saigh watched as the little ones toddled in after Haezani and murred proudly. If I tried to introduce each one and fetch them so you can tell them apart, We would be here all night she teased You will get to know them in time, but tonight we shall formally announce them to the pack and integrate them as initiated and ranked Whelps of Kladdatir. she stalled as Haezani managed to herd those pups who were awake into vision of the pack. Haezani and Timur, are now the proud parents of Aeima, Avdotya, Acahikos, Caskra and Vaeigh. she said, introducing each pup by name The other five are Kazmarez and my own brood. Tundra, Frost, Ekaitz, Kivanuu and Verloren. she looked toward the little ones and smiled proudly. Little ones, This is your family. she said. Before raising her head in song for the initiation of the pups. [18:52] * +Senan blinked at the army of small wolves, a grin spreading across his lupine lips as he gazed at the future of the pack. Raising his head into the air his voice cried out into the night, accompanying Saigh's and the other wolves'. [18:52] * Cyote smiled to the familiar wolf Lykaios. His auds perked to the alpha's introduction of the whelps and joined in while raising his head to let out a howl of his own in recognition to the pups. [18:52] * %`Frost` would quickly pad over towards the other pups, wuffing excitedly as they drew closer. She padded over to her little sister, Kivanuu, and sat on her haunches near her protectively. Her ears perked at her mother's introduction and she lifted her muzzle and made all sorts of noises, though none of them came out as anything close to a howl. She was too little for that yet. [18:52] * @Kazasemi raised his muzzle to the sky out of pride and love for the little ones - some of which were his own, but his own blood or not, they were part of his family and he was oh so proud of his family and the pack as a whole [18:52] * Cian saw the nod yet he didn't change position he merely walked further back nearly at the clearing borderline. He sat alone quietly listening straining his ears to make sure he didn't miss anything. [18:53] * %Caskra perked as his name was said, chest puffing out proudly and an itch in his throat, he tried to mimick his aunts strange noise. his puppy howl coming out broken and a little too high pitched. eyes wide in wonder at the big wolves and all their sounds. [18:53] * %Aeima squeaked as a sudden noise reached her ears, and saw that the bigwolves were being loud. She tilted up her muzzle and wailed along with them, doing her best to match their voices. (Done) [18:53] * +Adalwolfa tilted her silver speckled muzzle back allowing her own rough song to join in the others. [18:54] * %Kivanuu heard the rising songs of the wolves around her and though it made her heart flutter fearfully there was something about the sound, something that made her heart sing. Torn between fear and curiosity she whined a bit, her wormlike tail whipping anxiously behind her before she tilted her own head backa nd tried to mimick the adults, though nothing but a gurglegrowl emitted. Brows knitted [18:54] * %Kivanuu she growled and settled for peepling in responce to the adults songs. [18:54] * +Otsoko grinned, raising his head to join into his alpha's wonderful song for the smaller beings that were now out and about. [18:54] * %Achaikos stopped when he reached his aunts side and pulled his eyes together thoughtfully. He wasn't sure what to think of all these wolves.. Were they going to be like the meant silver milkgiver and keep him from exploring this brave new world? Or was he going to have stay confided.. like a dog on a leash? Soooo many new challenges to face! He was the more silent and deadly of the pups for sure! [18:56] * Casanova wagged her tail lightly, as she noticed two of the many pups from before. Even as a newcomer, she was glad there were so many little ones and couldn't wait to meet them all. Flicking her ears around, she joined the others in song excitedly. [18:56] * Lykaios watched Cyote and followed the Scout's queue to howl in honor of the pups of this home. [18:56] * @Saigh smmiled as the pups joined in, the best they could anyway. It was a new beginning for them and she could hardly wait to see what type of mischeif they caused in the next year. She waited for the excitment of the new arrivals to die down before she spoke again. Haezani would care for the little ones the best she could, and with all of the pack watching, she doubted they would get far if they tried anything sneaky *cough cough Achiakos cough cough* They did need to move on. So, she cast her chrome hues out upon her pack and called the three names she had in mind. Adalwolfa, Otsoko and Senan, Please come and stand before the pack she said, summoning the three wolves into the center of the wolven circle. [18:58] * +Adalwolfa rose to her paws and padded forward cautiosly coming to stand in the circle of the pack. [18:59] * +Otsoko tilted his headd to one side before giving a nod and a smile. Moving over to his alpha, he began to look out at the circle that had gathered. [18:59] * +Senan 's tail lashed out characteristically, flicking as he walked toward the Alpha female who commanded him to come. Eying the other two wolves to appeared beside him before the pack he turned his attention towards Saigh. [19:01] * @Saigh waited for all three wolves to step forward and for semi-silence to spread through the wolven crowed. Her eyes shifting from one to the other, a smile upon her face. You have all served your time as Assessments and the Council feels you are ready to make a decision for your futures. You have had time to get to know our pack, our ways, and we feel you would be a good fit for our family, but that can only be so if you accept Packmembership, and that is what we are offering tonight. Do you still wish to be apart of our family? To call this place home and treat everywolf here as if they were your own flesh and blood. To have your spirit tied in with ours so that you may be a member of Kladdatir? she asked, her head tilting slightly as she awaited their answers. [19:02] * %Caskra (Whtwlf@aab7ccc6.dhcp.ahvl.nc.4e125616.com.hmsk) Quit (Quit: pewf) [19:02] <+Adalwolfa> I do Saigh. [19:02] * +Otsoko could feel his paws tingle with the excitement that followed Saigh's little speech. Giving a nod, he soon added that tiny bit of speech to make it official. "Yes, of course!" [19:03] * +Senan bowed his head, happiness washing through him as he spoke. "Yes." [19:04] * Cian felt a sigh release from within him as he threw his head back in a howl to honor the three. He was readying to leave as soon as the meeting came to a close. [19:05] * @Saigh awaited each of their answers, her heart a flutter as each agreed to membership. Then tonight, our numbers have grown by three. Congradulations, Otsoko, Adalwolfa and Senan, Packmates of Kladd`atir! she announced, her tail waving happily for them as she tilted back her head and howled for them and for the growth of their pack. [19:05] * Saigh sets mode: +h Senan [19:05] * Saigh sets mode: +h Adalwolfa [19:06] * Saigh sets mode: +h Otsoko [19:06] * Leif sets mode: +h Verloren [19:06] * %`Frost` was rather enjoying all the commotion, and seeing all the grown up wolves move about. Her snowy tail flicked back and forth against the grounded skywhite while her bluegray gaze watched the others with interest. She continued to stand calmly, and protectively, next to Kivanuu. Her ears perked towards her mother's words, and to see what the others would say. She could sense the excitement [19:06] * %`Frost` in the moment. She yipped and wuffed for the new family members. [19:07] * Cyote lifted his head to howl yet again in support for the new packmates. [19:07] * %Aeima (Mibbit@7cf33450.hsd1.pa.5aa6454b.net.hmsk) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [19:07] * %Adalwolfa Waved her tail in joy as she pranced a bit in place she finally had a home. [19:07] * %Senan grins at the other two wolves, saying a quick thank you before retreating once again into the crowd, his spirits raised by the voices of the pack. [19:07] * %Achaikos (androirc@cfa73a7f.hsd1.wa.5aa6454b.net.hmsk) Quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) [19:08] * %Otsoko raised his head slightly. He knew his mother would have been proud of him. Turning to the two other wolves beside him, he offered them a tailwag and a little yip. [19:08] * Leif sets mode: +h Adalwolfa [19:09] * @Saigh dipped her muzzle as her howl died off and dismissed the newly appointed packmates back to their positions among the group. Before announcing We have had many new faces around our home, and tonight we open assessment to any who wish to take part. If you wish to begin assessment, please come and stand before the pack. she said before waiting patiently. She knew often times there was some hesitation before anyone moved. [19:11] * Leif sets mode: +h Otsoko [19:11] * Casanova 's heart raced as she knew what that meant. She slowly stood, looking around at the others before making her way to the front and sitting cautiously by the Alpha, with her tail tucked under her. [19:14] * Zani (Haezani@3b713a33.socal.res.14056255.com.hmsk) has joined #Hollow [19:14] * @Haezani (webchat@3b713a33.socal.res.14056255.com.hmsk) Quit (Killed (NickServ (GHOST command used by Zani))) [19:14] * Zani is now known as Haezani [19:14] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Haezani [19:15] * @Saigh waited until a timid looking ebony fae approached. She had not yet met the wolf but their fur smelt of the pack. She smiled welcomingly and tilted her head Please state your name for the pack and say that you agree to the terms of Assessment she said before explaining said terms Assessment is a time of learning. You will get to know the pack, its members and its ways. Over this time we encourage you to interact and get to know everyone and ask questions as you go. When we feel you are ready, you will be asked if joining our family is still your desire. she finished, awaiting the fae to introduce herself to the others and hopefully, to agree to assessment. [19:15] * Cian turned around and quietly escaped the clearing with a slight dip of his head, "I will return one day," he promised himself as he entered the woods. He was on his way back home now. [19:18] * Casanova took a breath before speaking, "Casanova Brynn..and yes, I agree to the terms of Assessment." She let her tail wag slightly, hoping it'd show how excited she was to meet everyone and possibly join their family. [19:19] * @Saigh noted the fae's name and nodded Welcome then Casanova, our newest Assessment of Kladdatir. Good luck she said, her smile encouraging as she tilts her head back and sings for the newly appointed assessment, her tail wagging excitedly behind her and rallying the pack to join in her song [19:21] * %`Frost` wuffles! [19:21] * Serenia smiled and lifted her muzzle in a soft hollow yt beautiful song. [19:22] * %Verloren curiously smiles at the excitement.
