Because this is mandatory, adding in tags for those required to post. @Bindi @Raissa @Copper @Minxy @Paxton @Ryuu - Chaska I won't tag you as you've already replied ^_^

The birth of his two children had been exciting. It had been equally the most depressing and happiest day of his life. It had been unfortunate that only two of them had survived but they were the good born out of the remains of the fire. FitzDutiful had stayed at the den most nights, being away only when alpha duties called for it or when he needed to gather food for Raissa. It could be said that he was doting in her but he was doting on his children. They were his priority above everyone and anyone else.

FitzDutiful had put the word out that no one was allowed near the pack lands without good reason. It also was looking like a few more wolves had deserted their cause. Paxton, Minxy and Copper. He hadn't seen or scented them for too long. So now he gave them a chance to come back. His pups were coming up to two weeks old. They were doing well. June had managed to survive though he still worried. She seemed behind Mason in terms of development. Her weight gain had been slow and not as quick as his. FitzDutiful assumed their eyes would be opening within the next few days. He was looking forward to interacting with them on a closer level.

None of the pack had seen his pups. No one but Bindi had been allowed anywhere near the alpha's den, Raissa's chosen birthing place. And that was only because Bindi was the beta and needed to talk to FitzDutiful on occasion. Now things would start changing. He moved outside the den, not too far away. Far enough that his pups were not in danger from any new members they may have taken on but close enough that Raissa would be expected to attend this meeting too.

Throwing his muzzle into the air he howled for the pack to attend a meeting. Telling them he wanted to know of any encounters they had had around the pack lands and that everyone was expected to attend or they were out of the pack.
