Horizon Ridge JOIN · The soul felt its worth

If something seemed amiss with Akhlut at this point, Pied did not notice, as she was caught up in her thoughts about the ritual. She wondered what exactly it would entail. An image of Akhlut bestowing them each with collar made of fresh flowers flitted through her mind, causing her to chuff quietly. Where would he get flowers at this time of year? Still, she enjoyed the image, even if it was silly.

"Okay," she responded agreeably when the Alpha next spoke, "though I wouldn't mind standing around and getting to know you. I'm sure we can do that some other time...?" she asked humbly, tail waving. Though she truly wanted to get to know her leader better, he was right in that she did want to dash off and let Kisu know of the happy news: they were pack mates!

After getting his reassurance that they'd meet up again in the near future, Pied nudged her new Alpha underneath his chin, demonstrating her respect and submission. The new Omicron then pranced past him, breaking into a lope and calling out to Kisu even as she rant to meet him.
