Broken Antler Fen The air around me still feels like a cage.

praimfaya keeps the drakru siblings both in her sight as opalia presumably takes in what of the fen they can readily see. there are plenty of secrets yet to be discovered even by praimfaya who though has spent ample time marking borders has tried to spread her focus towards assessing the resources readily available to roangeda and recruiting. her next step — while still recruiting — will be to reach out to the packs that also call great bear wildnerness home ...if only to alert them to roangeda's presence. she isn't so sure she's interested in alliances just yet but having established packs on friendly standing does not strike her as a bad thing.

truthfully, she is playing this all by ear: how she thinks it should be done with linkoln's vague wisdom. praimfaya tries not to let her inexperience or her tender age cause her confidence to crack; nor to feel entirely lost without blodreina's guidance ...and thus it does not go unnoticed that she is in need of a klikalida. her gaze goes briefly to dacio before flickering back to opalia as the woman spoke once more. according to what blodreina has told her of drageda: it had not originated on the coast but rather a place called sleeping dragon and it's original iteration had been co-led by praimfaya's grandmother, gyda.

i know that roangeda and my claim as wanheda goes against what our people have known, it is not a decision to be taken lightly and she respects both of them, regardless of what was to come, for at least coming to her and considering it. i know that my mother was natrona — the word feels like poison in her mouth as she speaks it. to call blodreina a traitor when she has absolved her of it feels wrong. — but i believe her vision for me and for roangeda is good, despite her faults. i would see roangeda be a pack of strength, of tight-knit kru; a place where we can build our own traditions and re-solidify what it means to be kru.

she would see roangeda a name to be feared, but also as a name that inspires hope and sense of family in its people and those who might seek it out with interest of joining.
