Ravensblood Forest Will You Hold the Line?

Please let @Hieronymous post first! looking for @Donovan Azura ( @Ulysses as a back up tag it's for donovan but spaces don't work in tagging your name since there's other characters with just the first name) or other members of the saints

Hua's warning had been heard, though what truth laid behind her words was yet to be confirmed. The forming group in question was not unfamiliar, Hieronymous had informed her before of one of their members seeking Kaistleoki's leadership, unfortunately at a time when she was unable to meet these wolves for herself. Knowing that a ruthless group was forming nearby was troubling and the Count couldn't help but hope that she had been fed lies, but it would be irresponsible of her to not ensure her packs safety by investigating herself.

Ira had discussed the matters with her Constable and the two agreed that they would travel together. The new mother left her children under the care of @Speedy knowing fair well that they would be fine under the watchful eyes of their Physician and her mate. It was her hope that this encounter would be peaceful, but she could never be too safe. If they were truly mad there was no reasoning that could explain their actions. If her suspicions were confirmed...well that would be an issue to deal with on another day.

The Count made the trip upriver until a tall forest appeared on the horizon. The trees were unlike most she had seen in her life, but even from the edges, she could see the running sap that clung to the bark's surface. Everything so far met the description she had been provided with and given their interest in her own pack...their leader should be willing to see her. The scent marks were weak, likely from a lack of members, but it was enough to show that some had been keeping the territory presently marked.

Perhaps that was a good sign, if they were dangerous they were still low in numbers. She could handle that, it gave them time. Ira glanced to the painted knight at her side, both careful to avoid the invisible line even with Hiero's disability before the Count tipped her head back to call for the wolf-dog leader she had heard so much about.
