As Aries made her way into what was now Ryala’s pack dens, she slowed slightly and then turned, facing the rest of her pack. She felt a small smile fall upon her black lips as she nodded to them. ”Okay, so now that we’re all –mostly- here, I can start to give you your ranks.” she told them all quietly, her smile fading somewhat. She wasn’t sure how long Rasalas would be gone, and she felt slightly at a loss without him. Aries was not a natural born leader – she’d only done this, created the pack, so that she could continue to live the way she wanted. Still, she figured it wasn’t going to be that hard.
Blinking her blind eyes slowly, Aries turned to Scout. ”Scout, I know that you have quite the interest in herblore and the medicinal qualities of plants. You will be the pack Shaman.” she told him, dipping her head slightly. ”And as per your request, Vixen –“ she turned towards the femme as she spoke, ”- will be your Gatherer.” Clearing her throat somewhat, Aries continued, ”Obviously, your duties are to tend to the ill or injured, and you will teach Vixen. Should pups ever be birthed, you also have the job of caring for them should other matters arise that require the mothers’ attention. As for you, Vixen, your job is simply to learn.” The words were rolling from Aries’ tongue without her giving much thought to them – she’d practiced these speeches over and over to herself for days, and so she was prepared.
The blind Alphess nodded once more before she turned to Kyra and Polaris. ”Kyra, you are still young, and so your rank shall remain Subordinate for now. I’ll need to test your skills to find where your strengths lie.” she told the pup warmly; Aries truly wanted to guide the pup and teach her how to live life normally. Shifting her attention to Polaris, she added, ”Your rank, for now, is Subordinate until I am able to assess your skills.”
Aries inhaled deeply, feeling as if that was all she really had to say about ranks and duties. Scraping the rocky cavern floor, she said, ”These caverns will serve as pack dens; this is where we sleep and hold meetings, if necessary. As for what Ryala is about… I will say just one thing: We are a pack centered around loyalty and without judgment. Do not scorn others – Ryala can find a spot for anyone within our ranks, and as such, I do not want any of you to look down upon others if they have any sort of disability.”
Inhaling again, Aries finished, saying, ”Just so we are all clear: Scout is the Shaman, and if you fall ill or are injured, you go straight to him. Rasalas, though absent, is the pack Beta, and you should listen to his authority as much as you do mine. Should any of you find a strange wolf in our lands, please call for me.” Aries nodded briskly once more, letting them know that her speech was over. She took in yet another deep breath before asking, ”Are there any questions, comments, concerns?”
