The Sunspire The House of Troubles

A few days past the hunt, ubervague about what happens, though. -- Unless Treason gets super hurt or something and then in that case, it's before?? IDK

Something had shifted within the pale devil over the past month and a half.  She'd spent more of her time on her own, patrolling borders, yes, but not really seeking the company of packmates.  The ones she met hadn't really lived up to expectations, and then there were the litters of lawbreakers.

One could maybe be excused, but two?  Why would she want to support that kind of disregard of reason?  That pitiful and weak sympathy to those that apparently didn't care what the result of their actions did to everyone else.  Maybe they should all starve.  Treason was strong and of good breeding, she could just leave them to their own devices and go off on her own again, especially at this time of year, laughing as they spiraled down the drain under a pile of mewling whelps that leeched away all the resources from the competent. It was very tempting.  It wasn't like they seemed to be in any danger from neighbors any more now either -- they could live their weak little lives without her there.

Leadership took making hard decisions, and now she questioned whether the ones she followed had the capability to make them.  And why wouldn't she?  Treason had thought they were the sort that would follow logic and therefore law, but these extra broods of parasites ran counter to it.  Her expression was sour and her pace fairly swift as she wandered the borders again today beneath the cloudy sky.  Why had she bothered?  Why should she continue to?
