Emberwood the faes are gone

He heard Awol's first calls, both he knew would not be answered, and so Kavik had already made his way from the borders to find the other leader when his third call finally sounded soft and hesitant through the trees. He was kicking himself for not finding him sooner and explaining everything to him.

When he finally found the new Magician, he had barely stopped in front of him when he began to speak. Kavik sighed. Awol, I apologize; I should have come to you sooner. Ibis is in a deep sleep—unable to be woken and I don't know if she'll ever wake, he started. And Bhediya no longer felt safe here. Something happened with Pygmalion...he threatened her and had an altercation with Kukulkan. She is safe in a hideout. I escorted her there myself. He paused briefly and then continued. I can ask her if I can bring you there the next time I go to check on her. I just don't want to surprise her right now when she's so upset. And he also wasn't sure how close Awol and Bhediya were; she may not want him there. 

Of course, this means you now fill the rank of Paladin. My second—if that is something you wish to do, of course. He wouldn't force the other man into something he may not want to do, not matter how much he needed him to remain in the council and be his second. He didn't want the pack to have to deal with anymore changes.
