Blackfeather Woods Nightmares

Burke nodded shortly and looked at her. "You must understand that I technically can't allow you to start a pack while still being in our ranks. I can however give you some advise," he spoke. "Firstly, start eating, make sure you are in good shape and your young too. Autumn is already here and soon Winter will follow, you will need pack members to hunt for bigger game," he advised. The male knew Lusa had to work a bit on her diplomatic side since sometimes she was more defensive rather than being social but that was just a minor point. Burke himself wasn't the nicest wolf and still there were wolves wanting to be in their pack.

"Second, make sure your paw is healed. Try and get over Grim, as difficult as it may be. You survived this without him, and with the help of BFW, so you are strong enough and if you start your own pack with loyal members you should be able to survive it too. BUT. As a leader you have to be terribly selfless. You will have to put the pack needs before your own. You will lack sleep and still need to be there for the pack. In your case it might be even tougher since you have young to raise. One advantage you do have, what can also be your downfall. Winter. Lone wolves might be looking for a pack to join." Burke realized that he was terribly nice by giving all this information. Damn. Maybe he wanted her to start a pack, he felt like it would be better for her instead of dwelling around BFW. "Third, you will let me know when you leave if you go for a scouting mission. And when you decide to truly leave you will come to me and I will escort you and your kids out."
