Frostfire Ridge It's a start...

Sweet. This thread also falls after the current ManauiaxCitali thread.

It spoke. It shouldn't have.

She let it know. "You appear wiser when you don't open your mouth." Because everything that fell out of it was "woe is me". Which was moronic, stupid, and a waste of everyone's time here. Not to mention, that he misinterpreted things if only because he was blind to everything that was happening around them. His goals. His dreams. His whatever else happened to be important at the time. And what were they supposed to do? Follow him because it was ordered? She had at first, but the wolf she was commanded to serve as guard for no longer existed. Her contract was null and void.

"I know." Was all she spoke of Nochlti's disappearance. She and fellow amazon sisters were far more in tune with one another than this foolish king dared to notice. All he seemed to care about was betrayal and haphazardly making up rules and nonsense he claimed not to know then suddenly knew everything about. This wolf was as confused as the lands here. Hot or cold. Trying to be both Amazon and whatever else he had become.

What he was? She had no idea, but it was not Tezcacoatl. Not in the least.

"Don't claim to be Amazon," she snapped, furious suddenly. How dare this wolf claim to be an Amazon when he knew nothing of their ways. "If you knew anything about us, you would not have asked females who despise males to submit to your rule." That she had let it go this far was preposterous in and of itself. She would not allow herself to be humiliated further.

"Our mission?" she hissed. "Our mission is over and complete. There is no Tezcacoatl for any of us to serve. You have killed him by becoming whatever it is you are. You may look like Tezcacoatl, but you are certainly not him." These words, however precise would fly over his head. She braced herself for another spat of "woe is me" and "everyone has betrayed me". Their loyalty was to the Queen. She'd assigned them to him and he was no more. That was all there was to it. Nochtli was well within her right to resign... then again, there was nothing to resign from if only because it no longer existed.

She spoke not of his frantic jump to conclusions where Nochlti was concerned. If he wished to misplace the cause of Nocthli's actions, he would only further proved how right she was in jumping ship. Truth be told, if their was any traitor here it was the wolf who dared to claim himself as Tezcacoatl. Imposter.
