Noctisardor Bypass They lead me to believe [PACK MEETING]

Mawk, Horosk, @Illecebra @Noor @Semira @Circe @Rhona

Gwen stood atop the rock at the meeting place, lifting her head in a summoning howl. She had chosen who she wanted to lead beside her. Of course, there were many options, and she wished she could pick more than one, but for now she had decided. Things did not last forever, she knew (from many past experiences) so she had a few ideas about who to appoint if her chosen wolf were to ever leave. Now her snowy head lowered, scanning the ground as wolves began to gather. She looked at all of them with a faint smile, her mind tracing back to Knew briefly. He should have been here beside her, appointing the Segundo. There was a clear hint of pain in her eyes but she shook her head.

"Wolves of the Bypass, it has probably become evident that I am finding it difficult to lead on my own at this time. It is this that has led me to decide that I want to appoint a Segundo. For now, even if it is not forever." The icy Empress glanced again at the wolves, allowing her tail to give a small wag.  "I hope you approve of my decision - I have decided to appoint Semira as the Segundo." She glanced at the agouti wolfess, smiling genuinly. She was sure she had made a good choice. "Now, I want to explain my reasonings so that nobody feels... upset about my choice."

First she glanced at Illecebra and Noor. "Noor, you for certain would have been one of my main choices, as you are experienced and older than I. However, you are carrying pups and as a second in command you would have a lot of hands-on work to do. Now, I am not saying that you could not handle it, for I believe you could, but you have also recently been injured and I would not feel comfortable with you working too hard." Honestly, when she had heard about the events that had occured, she had been horrified. Hopefully Noor would make a strong recovery. Then she turned to Cebra. "Now, Cebra, many of those same reasons are true for you as well, apart from the injury. I want you to get as much rest as possible and that you would not be able to do so if you were my Segundo."

Now the others. "As for the rest of you - Rhona is a healer, and we need her for that reason. Circe is still rather new to the pack, and Horosk is also still fairly new despite being a Medio now. There are also... other reasons for this that I'm sure he already knows." The queen sent a knowing gaze to the man, as he had recently told her about Kelina and the recent events. He had too much to deal with right now to become a Segundo. "Mawk has told me he is not interested in the title, and would rather continue to work at the borders."

The woman climbed down from the rock, approaching Semira to welcome her as the new Segundo. "Congratulations, Semira. I'm glad to have you by my side if you do indeed want this rank."
