Redhawk Caldera need you now

Maia looked at him warmly, grateful that he was so understanding and that, even after all this time, she'd somehow lucked out and ended up married to the best wolf she'd ever met.

Do... you want to handle it? The meeting, and all of that? Or do you want Teya and I to? If he was tired, and wanting to step down, she didn't want to leave all of that on his shoulders. She and Teya could gather everyone and announce it, maybe see how they felt about the next Auspex, and go forward from there. You could talk to everyone, of course, but I don't mind talking to Teya and calling the meeting.

She'd need to talk to Teya anyway. She wanted to ask her if she wanted Eljay's role and she wanted to be honest about her own ambitions, just to clear the air and make sure they knew. Maia would step aside gladly if Teya did want it, but there was a small part of her that hoped not. She hadn't taken it yet, right? (Then again, neither had Maia).
