Larksong Grotto Forget the flowers

I'll go ahead and close this out!

One by one, the pack gathered together and their voices rose a rising crescendo. Soon however, their song reached its coda and the voices began do die just as they had risen. One by one, howls dropped from the mix until Reek remained the sole voice in the crowd. His cadence became deeper until his howl finally died away— silence taking its place. With his and Tavi's claim over the grotto now indisputable, Reek looked around the crowd and couldn't help but smile pridefully. It was in this moment that Reek vowed to never muck this up like he had in the Maplewood.

With the ceremony over, the wolves each took their individual leave and slunk away into the darkness. Taking his cue, Reek turned to Tavi with a single brow raised and motioned for her to join him in the cave they had claimed for themselves, where together, they could celebrate the birth of their pack the right way; locked in each other's embrace.
