Silvertip Mountain Family Always

Whoops! This was supposed to go up yesterday. Ah well, round ends Sunday, May 3 and no post order required.

Chaska. He was the first to arrive and FitzDutiful smiled to see him. He was a very loyal wolf and FitzDutiful hoped he was still considering becoming the pack's chronicler. He wanted to inspire wolves to stay and become part of the family. "I'll let you know when the others get here." he replied with a smile. Ryuu was the next to arrive and he noted her nervousness. He hoped she was getting along okay and made a mental note to catch up with her. Hopefully she would be the pack caretaker. The collar on her neck continued to blink

Bindi and Raissa both came too. Bindi greeted him and then sat not too far away. She was a respectable distance as was permitted for her beta status. Raissa moved to sit a respectable distance away from them both. He glanced over both of them as they arrived wondering about the situation. He had thought his pups would clarify it and make it easier. It did it some ways but it was also slightly more difficult. He found it harder to confirm his feelings. Maybe that was part of the problem and he needed to stop trying to justify them and just feel.

He shook his head. They were down three. They hadn't come. He waited a few more minutes for any sign that anyone else was approaching before speaking.

"As you all know, except maybe Ryuu, I asked us all to be more vigilant along our borders. We need to protect ourselves and the puppies. Copper, Paxton, Minxy." he said their names, looking towards Bindi to find out how she was feeling about her sister not being here. "They have not been scented around here recently. They haven't arrived at this meeting. They are out of this pack. They are unable to rejoin without a good reason for their departure — I will not have any one taking us for granted again."

He looked around the wolves to make sure there were no questions before continuing on. Any questions that the wolves had would be answered before his next speech.

"I'd like a report on any encounters you have had at our borders. I, for one, met Ryuu and allowed her to join us. I also met another lone wolf, named Luke, who seemed peaceful and plans to find a home far away from here. I also had a run in with two wolves from the Sunspire. They were disrespectful and rude to start with. If they return then the one named Rain is allowed to converse at our borders but her escort, Nishu, is to be run off immediately for his disrespect. Be warned, he may start a fight." He quieted, allowing the others to speak of anyone they had come across this past month.
