Sleeping Dragon set the controls for the heart of the sun

Wrapping up :3

Magpie speaks further on the weakened state of the Maplewood, divided from the grotto. Thuringwethil had no idea if wolves followed Reek to his own claim, but he'd mentioned a co-leader, and assumed there had been one or two that would follow. It causes her mind to travel, for only a second, if Sleeping Dragon should split. If she should take Drageda elsewhere and continue its real kingdom as Seageda rebuilting. She shakes it, distracted then by Gyda's words that she has to take a moment to reiterate to herself what her newly appointed advisor had said.

"We will not harm them," she decides, even if Magpie had already made the statement. Gyda expresses herself to avoid their use at all and her own slate eyes narrow. She knows it has to do with her impending litter,
something she's already voiced upon. It had yet to come, so for that Thuringwethil doesn't worry, but to get Reek to bend to her ways, she needs something. His selfish intentions had been apparent, maybe forcing their paw into the coalition might not pan out the way she wants. For the time being, extra man power would be in their favor. "But Reek does not need to know that."

Unless Gyda came up with another alternative, she saw little to bargain with. His children had been the biggest thing between him and the Phoenix wolves, and bearing her gaze heavily on her queen she knew there would be little to motivate the other wolf. Glancing back to Magpie, she dips her head and sheds the conversation there. In time, she'd visit the grotto, though Warbone had agreed to take her. Had she'd not heard her bringing him her?

"Security will increase. Even if she is pregnant and weakened, that doesn't mean they are not a threat. They've been here longer, who knows what advantage they have. Until then, we'll prepare."

Thuringwethil pivots, and notices Warbone had already disappeared, and she begins her own exit. In a few days time, she'd slip back to the grotto to finalize everything.
