Porcupine Ridge MM, try me b

That is correct. :) Jhala enters the ranks above him, but he remains above Romulus, as it is assumed that he earned his spot there and of Romulus doesn't like it he'd have to challenge for it. You can see how the ranks shift in the examples I have in the 'Ranks' topic in the MO forum!

He was poised on his toes to intercept if he had to, but though the pair scuffled there was no blood shed, and their struggle for dominance was in good sport and did not go on for too long. If it had, he would have stepped in. But, on their own an agreement was come to - she would take his rank. He submitted to her. Tagg let his tail fall to its neutral position, and he looked to Jhala with a confirming nod.

"Good show, Delta."

He stepped over to the new Epsilon then, giving him a companionable check to the shoulder. "Good effort, Anwyl." There should be no hard feelings in matters of order such as this; it was the natural way of things, and there could come a time when Anwyl would rise again. He was but a yearling, after all.

Satisfied, Tagg howled a quick note to let the pack know of the shift in ranks, and then walked away.
