Tamlyn
A soft breeze blew through the land, rustling through the trees, whispering secrets, murmuring of one this way coming. A low word came forth from dark lips, and the wind ceased its flitting as if on command, and a deep, ragged breathing took its place.
A shadow struggled over the low hill, barely cresting its top before falling to hindquarters to rest, panting. Crimson rolled down a shoulder, causing its bearer to wince and close his silver eyes, gulping for a moment. Finally, lamps opened again and he threw out a wild call. He was lost, alone, wounded; in need of a place to rest. But he daren't until he make peace with those abiding hither. Remaining on all fours with more effort than was pretty, he awaited a response.
Moon Spirit
An answering howl answered the wounded males and soon the patter of racing feet could be heard. The white females eyes darted about seeking the caller, her thin audits seeking for any unwanted sounds. Seeing the male now, she howled to him, her vocals giving off a hauntingly beautiful howl. Moving as quickly as she could, the fairy halted at the male and gently nuzzled him. Her voice was soft as she whispered "Follow me, Ami. You need shelter and rest." Using herself as a crutch, the fae pulled along side him to help him along to the willow tree where he could rest.
Tamlyn
A quiet smile lit his face. At least the wolves here were of a friendly nature. He followed, picking his way carefully. He tried not to lean to much weight on her, for he outweighed her by a good bit, but he did accept the help as she supported him to the willow, laying gratefully when they arrived. Many thanks, madam. It seems the two-legs are most voracious in their dislike of us, and in their methods of driving us away. I come new to this land, and unprepared. My wounds are of my own foolishness. And his brow creased in thought before he let out a small bark of laughter, a grin appearing on his face. It occurs to me that I have forgotten my manners. I am Tamlyn.
Moon Spirit
The large female smiled at him warmly and said in her soft autumn wind voice "The two legs are bad here, but if you rest for awhile your wounds should heal. I am Moon Spirit, alphess of the land." She gazed silently around looking for her mate Azul but not seeing him, she looked back to Tamlyn. "The others here are peaceful as well, none much of fighters but all being sheltered from something or another." Her smile was soft and warm as she stared at him, her yellow eyes bright and alive although she still mourned for her lost niece and son.
Karai
Starlit vixen came trotting to a foreign call, ears perked defensively as though she had never left Sedge Creek. But it soon became apparent that the large male would do no harm, and so she came up beside Moon Spirit, a fond nuzzle given before a deep nod to the male. Hello.
Tamlyn
He took a bow to the alphess, which was quite awkward laying down, but he managed all the same. He was about to quesiton as to her silence when the other female arrived, and he smiled, a bow given to her as well, though just a touch less deep. A small smile broke on his face as he replied, Well... hello yourself.
Moon Spirit
She smiled to her good friend and said in the same autumn wind voice "This is Karai, a good friend and ally of the Sedge Creek Pack. Tell me, Tamlyn, how you happened upon our little section of the wood." Her eyes were a cold yellow but she watched him warmly, no threat no danger. However, the fae was not one to reckon with for she had fought for this land. It had not just been handed over like it would have been for some.
Traitor
I move silently into the land, limping as I go from where my brother had torn into me. Stupid Torment. I would kill him one day....One day....It seems that this place is like a hospital. Another here is injured. How interesting. I move forth heading for the alphess. I do not submit, I had never been taught how. Softly I tell her "Azul sent me here. He says you help me..." My voice breaks now and again and I forget to say a few words. I'm so tired...Must stay up. I shake my head slightly and stand taller, prouder. Must remain strong. Can't prove them right. I watch the pretty white fae with haunted yellow eyes and say softly "Please help me..." I'm so used to be turned away, sent somewhere else. Can't help a traitor. Thats what I am to. I betrayed my brothers and the darkness that lives inside us all and went towards the light. Blood stains my white coat and I can't take it anymore. I must sit. As I do it reveals my cross that is over my heart. A god sent. An angel from born in Hell. I watch the pretty Moon Spirit locking eyes with her. Desperation fills my own and I just want to look up and howl my pain to the world around me. I had lost everything and had been sent here to deal with this new pain. A broken heart was something new to me but thats ok. I'm sure I will get over it. I ot over everything else in my life why not this to?
Karai
Karai wwas in the middle of smiling pleasantly when another wounded came in, and she spoke quickly, quietly. Now, both of you stay here while I find something for those wounds. She trotted away a distance, grasping up a small herb and beginning to chew, making a quick cream for wounds. Trotting back to them, she spoke around a mouthful of herb. This will help if you'll let me put it on.
Azul
the brute had yet to find more of Aaka's pups glade that it coud mean no more had died. He sighed as he entered the lands and heading to his love nuzzling her shoulder he sighed.
Tamlyn
The brute looked up at the silver lady, wondering what on earth she had in her mouth. Still, anything was better than the pain, and so he took a deep nod, a signal he would allow her to administer the treatment.
To the newcome male he offered a deep bow, though he still did not rise from the ground. Obviously, this was her mate, the alpha male. Then, he turned his attention back to Karai, waiting for her.
Moon Spirit
She smiled warmly at Karai as she began to help her new friends and turned back to the others. A soft smile played across her maw and she said softly "Welcome to the Sedge Creek Land my friends. Please, make yourself at home. What is mine is yours." As her mate appeared she smiled glowingly at him and nuzzled him gently then watched as Karai began to work her magic upon the two new wolves.
Karai
Karai smiled gently at the male and spoke carefully around a mouthful of herb. Now it will sting a bit, but it will help the bullets work themselves out of the skin, stave off infection, and help the wounds to heal. Ready? Giving him a moment to brace himself, she deftly smoothed a bit of the herb over the worst of the wounds, using her tongue to spread it evenly. Stepping back, she turned an expert eye on him, moving back and forth to take all of him in. Finally, she nodded, saying, You'll do. Give that til sunrise, then wash it off. Then she turned to the other injured male, waiting to see if he, too, wanted the treatment.
Azul
his mate was looking better. He nodded to the two new males seeing their sad shape he smiled and spoke to his love.
|maybe I should go get them from freash meat to eat and us too.|
Tamlyn
He had braced himself, and only grunted a little as the steely lady rubbed the ointment in. After gritting his teeth to keep a cry of pain in, he smiled up at her, warm and thankful. My thanks, silver one.
