Raven's Watch stuttur taumur

The red wolfess turned to greet him as he anticipated: with teeth. Rökkvi felt his hackles lift at the display, a natural and instinctive response from him when his eyes took in the sight of hostility, even if the heart of him knew it was not genuine. To counter the discomfort of that feeling, he offered a rare sweep of his tail for his sister as she shifted to engage him.

He welcomed her to him with a rumbling growl of encouragement, though did not move to close the distance between them. The ironborn let Valmúa come to him, let her close to shower him with affection for a time as was appropriate of her place in the hierarchy. To further communicate that she knew how low that was, she flopped to expose her undersides. "You know I'd never pass that opportunity by," he responded as he shifted to fondly nip at the she-wolf's crimson brow.

Rökkvi side-stepped away, granting permission for his sibling to gather. While he respected Stjör's decision to force her into such humiliation, it was a real shame to see Valmúa reduced to a status akin to Omega. He hoped she would try hard to redeem herself. "What happened?" He already knew, obviously, but he was curious to hear her side of the story.
