For the most part, the response from the pack was positive -- or, well, as positive as was to be expected in this situation. There was at least no one who spoke up openly in opposition. The only commotion was raised by the Blackthorn children, two of whom expressed their desire to participate in the war alongside the adults. Finley was quick to dissuade them with a physical reprimand, and at some point during this transaction, while Elwood's gaze was on his offspring, Phox and Titmouse slipped away unnoticed.

When he looked back out over the crowd, wolves were nodding and wordlessly expressing their agreement. It made him feel better to see the support from his family and packmates. He bobbed his head as Finley urged everyone to brush up on their sparring skills and to seek assistance from the Alphas or Towhee if necessary.

Before everyone dispersed, he said, "I believe in us. With Drageda's help, we'll be able to bring Blackfeather to justice and ensure our own safety here for years to come. Once the commander and her wolves arrive, be ready to move. We'll formulate a plan and pass on any information you'll need." His yellow eyes scanned over the group once more, then he lowered his chin slightly to signify that he had spoken his piece, unless there were questions.
