Relic
Rank: Tracker
With:Ku'Jin, Sasha | Machamoti-Chi, Juno, Npc Tracker

Location: Following Juno's Lead
OOC: Okay, I bought Grammerly and it was the best decision ever. It was for school, but no regrets here lol Also, do we still have an NPC tracker here cause I totally forgot about them.


The young wolf rolled her eyes snorted, trotting up with a spring in her step to square up as best her smaller form could. "Sure you could, if you could catch me!" There was no doubt he could overpower her in a spar, she'd just have to be faster than wolves like him. It's what she'd been trained to do by her own mother. At the mention of their food, she eagerly was back on track, "Yes, that sounds amazing." She’d agree before continuing.

After their interaction, Relic would beam under the gaze of Juno. “Of course!”Her tail wagged from the gesture, happy for the older female's reaction. She was doing a good job! She peeked around some brush and took note that the bigger wolf had fallen back. At first, she wondered if he couldn't keep up, but as she quietly followed the trail, she realized that it was the best place for him to be until needed.

The sun had long gone down as she leads them deeper into the forest. She felt the frost of the night penetrating her pelt, but not enough to cause her too much discomfort. Though, Relic would be lying if she said she wasn't looking forward to returning home to her mother's warm embrace. She took a sharp turn once and carefully moved through the damp forest floor. While it made for slippery terrain, it was ultimately much quieter than having crispy fall leaves that might alarm the animal. It was getting late, the time that wild boar were most active. She would have to be careful.

Nightfall was on her side, though, and she was able to hunker down into the foliage as they got closer. There wasn't a moon in the sky, perfect for ambushing prey. When it was in their sight, she hunkered into a laying position that was easy to gracefully spring from. Silently, Relic looked over her shoulder to peer at Juno for direction. This was her time to shine.

OOC: Ha! Actually, the NPC tracker was a concept BEFORE an ACTUAL tracker decided to join the hunt. So, in a sense, the tracker is Relic now. X3



"No matter how the wind howls, the mountain cannot bow to it...



The moon mother's blanket of evening descended on the trio like a gardener's eves. The petals laid no pressure upon the skin. No ruffle upon the pelt. Night was a friend to the nocturnal predator. The woods were alive with noisy neighbors. Crickets were thawing, night swifts were chirping, and the trees themselves were groaning against the occasional gales. It was all they could do to strain buds for Spring. And as deep as they had descended into the hunting thickets of the forest, the babbling brooks still teased the auditory gloom. All was as peaceful as this children's bedtime story could be in some far off dream. Serene as serendipity.
However, Machamoti was certain to remain a respectful distance at the back just the same. The night...had adorned his coat less gently...

Theme: Embellishment of Illumination

The lunar rays of the onyx skies seemed to cling to The Sentinel's fluffy pelt like fireflies to their own. The sterling silver accents to his coat dimmed, save the occasional glint of metallic brilliance. Yet, it most certainly clashed with the nigh moonlight reflection of emboldened white that broadcasted from his figure. It was a phenomenon he was all too familiar with; and his greatest detriment to a hunt. He was practically a lunar-lightbulb. And it contributed to explain why he always remained at the very back of a hunting party. If anything, visually, he distracted prey from the true threat. His lumbering goliath-figure made for excellent spectacle. Too bad it made for convenient real estate, no sooner had they rounded a bend had a cricket landed on his nose. The daring blighter. The surprised brute would flex his snoot before attempting to blow it off with a huff.
Failure.
Machamoti tried again.
Another failure; it held firm.
He'd give his sniffer a good shake.
No good.
Therefore, given a moment of clarity, he'd slowly raise an enormous paw to swipe off the unwelcomed invader.
SUCCESS...short lived. Macha's eyes would watch the hapless insect sail through the gloom...only to smack against Relic's hind quarters with a ping~!

The brute's eyes widened for a moment before he tip-toed sideways like a crab behind the nearest tree trunk before pretending he was about to relieve himself; a desperate attempt to feign innocence.

Name: Zuya
Rank: Kiowa Alpha
Location: The Forest; Kiowa Lands, the River.
Out Of Character: Zuya's next post will be in the main character thread



Seeing as how the outsider did not press the conversation about their hunt, Zuya went on to assume that she was not hungry. That, or she had no interest in sharing a hunt with him. He snorted. Well, he was damn hungry and it was starting to show in his tone and demeanor. He was becoming more irritable than usual. It seemed she was more interested in finding out why he would be moving Kiowa. Figures.  His large green eyes bore into hers before he rolled his eyes. “Typical,” he stated, in response to her keen interest in the pack's moves and whereabouts. Still, if she wanted to know, he saw no reason in keeping it from her. Opening up to her so suddenly would, hopefully, cause her to open up more to him in return. He would possibly be able to gain the fae's trust and she would share her darkest secrets with him. It may even cause her to gain some loyalty toward him especially since she would be seeking entry into the pack. It wasn't like there was any major reason, at least not to the rest of the pack. Kiowa had worn out their welcome in these lands, he knew that and others probably did as well. “Spring will be upon us soon and while there will be some chance of decent hunts, food has become more and more scarce over the years. As our pack grows it's become difficult to keep everyone fed all the time. Winters have become harder on the pack.” in reality, their pack had already dwindled in numbers, but she didn't need to know that. He would keep her, and all other outsiders thinking that they were alive, well, and flourishing. He knew better, however. Still, this was the story he told her, and would be the same story he would tell anyone else who asked. There was a deeper, more sinister reason for moving the pack as well. This, he kept to himself. Zuya made no obvious gestures or movements that would elude to there being anything more to his reasons besides his 'genuine' concern for the pack. No doubt their hunt for a new, suitable home, would be very difficult on some of the wolves. They might even lose a few. The trek further into blasted lands would only awaken inner thoughts within wolves who carried the dark trait, and this.. this was the ultimate reason for Zuya's decision. “You're right, however, Kiowa has not migrated for many generations. I should be surprised that you know this information, but I am not.” He eyed her, an eyebrow raising in her direction, clearly wary of the fae still. “Has that answer satisfied your curiosity? He mocked, though no smile or insistent laugh left his maw. That jab was hollow and cold. He cocked his head to the side to play up his faux curiosity of her in return. An hour or so had already passed while they 'relaxed' at the river. “We should get moving.” He told her. The safety of the pack was not unwelcome. This black fae made him uneasy. He was hungry, and tired, but he couldn't bring himself to let his guard down around an outsider. The sooner they got back, the better.

"Cursing both Sun and Moon, Twilight sent her one and only daughter to carry the sins of the world...



Her pleasant smile remained as her stride became more casual around him. And his information was easy to digest. His reasoning seemed direct and plain enough, however, she kept her reservations.
"Oh? Do I strike you as typical?" her smile brightened as she brought a paw up to stifle a lady-like laugh. "But,yes, my curiosity is satisfied on the matter. I look forward to meeting your family." she stated with a warm demure. Henceforth, she made a note of things to take in her surroundings more slowly from this point. Kiowa territory was new territory. The trees were much larger here; younger too. Once Spring came into full swing she wondered how many leaves would bud. How green did this forest get? The wind had a noticeable lack of an ominous dirge. And what's more, the lack of mud was a welcome change.

However, after more time had passed, Lavi gave a gauge of the brooding emerald eyes as she mused where he would even want to take Kiowa. "Where would Kiowa's alpha seek carry us off to?" An innocent prod, to be sure. Myr and Kiowa lands were not the cream of the crop for hunting grounds; but both territories had great access to intercepting great herbivore migrations. Hence, the reinforcement in Lavi's surprise earlier. If food truly was the heaviest factor...which land held greater hunting grounds? Would Zuya seek to wrestle lands away from one of the packs she previously mentioned? Or would his relocation plans become an outright pilgrimage into unknown lands? Where had he heard of a land of milk and honey?
