King Elk Forest time and he are inseparable

omfg. i think delight's baby crush on mato is so adorable! *squishes delight* ♥

Mato appreciates that Delight is attentive and listens through it all even as Mato dumps a massive monologue upon him — probably the most Mato has spoken in his entire life. The starlit king doesn’t, necessarily, like talking about himself because it makes him feel pompous — and truth be told he’d much rather hear of someone else’s life than repeat his own — but he knows it is necessary for Delight’s trade and he is happy to oblige. “Yes,” Mato concurs as Delight shares his thoughts upon the King Elk. “I do believe he has accepted us as well. An honor, truly.” Because both parties are infamous for killing the other ( and in the case of the wolves feasting upon elk ). To be accepted by such a magnificent, ethereal beast was …beyond words that Mato knew. “Ainima.” The empyrean breathes in the tongue of the druids. Blessed. Holy. To be accepted by the holy beast is a blessing. It is the best word he can think to describe it. Ainima.

“I am glad you think so.” Mato responds, humbled with a dip of his head as Delight compliments Mato’s idea of breaking out of tradition. He’d no idea if it could even work as it reshapes everything he has ever known about wolf packs but there was nothing to be gained by fearing failure; and though there is always that chance ( in everything, even in traditional packs ) he is more hopeful that the idea might take off. For surely he is not the only one to have considered the idea. “Do you have enough information to start with?” Mato inquires, for it is true he has skimped quite a bit on history that he believes is unattached to Tindómë. The Morwinyon does wish to assist his packmates in any way he can when it comes to earning their trades and he intends to follow through with it.
