- Zana Avaya Lykoi - 12-18-2011 It had been a while since she had visited the Court, and while today she was here on goodwill of sorts she still could remember how she had spent one of her first moon quarters as a scout fixing the skulls at their borders that rumor had it, a creature from the Court itself had helped to destroy. She would be good, she would be gracious..but she would also remind the Court that respect in turn was expected. They had never shown such disrespect to the pack's lands, and while she was here with good will and offerings she would remind as well that it was a thin line between war and peace if they continued to let their members play jester across the lands. The large mustang that she rode brought her near the lands after their prolonged expedition to the tribe. She scanned the length of sandy beaches claimed by the pack as she let the horse plot along. She grew closer to their borders, the scent of the pack stronger now as she wondered if one of the leaders would come forth this time, or if she would meet one of their pack. Once a sibling had belonged to the pack, but that was long ago and she and their king had run off on some grand adventure, abandoning their little nation to the wilds. It had lived on without it's king, but she wondered if it was the same as it use to be. Oversized feline ears perked up as Sup-Sup crawled off her lap and sat straddled on the stallion's neck. She was certain the horse only put up with the feline because she did, but she didn't ask. As long as he let the tom live she was fine with their silent arrangement. She had grown rather fond of the cat, even if she wouldn't admit it herself. The small woman smiled at the cat as she ran a finger down its spine. She tilted her head back and gave a rather high pitched call, all coyote, all her. She leaned back on the horse's back and waited, knowing sooner or later someone would appear bringing word of the pack to exchange for greeting. - Terra - 12-18-2011 [html] OOC
Terra licked her jaws, cleaning off the blood from the rabbit she'd killed. She still wasn't good, and the rabbit had very little meat on it. It had been on the verge of dying when Terra had surprised it, and it still had almost managed to get away. It didn't matter though as this was something she'd killed herself. It was a lot better than scavenging dead corpses. Terra still thought it was a lot of fun to steal someone else's food though. It was a test of skill and bravery. No matter how much food was provided, Terra doubted she'd ever give that up. Well, maybe if the food was really good.

It had been a long moment before she had finally been greeted with the call of another. Her ears perked forward as she caught the sound of another coyote. She had not expected a coyote type creature living in the Court but it shouldn't surprise her, sometimes the misguided found their ways to the packs instead of the clan where the coyotes stood firm together. The tiny woman slide off the back of her dark hued mustang and padded across the land to where the Court member stood. Her eyes were bright as she closed the distance between them, not knowing that this creature was the beast that had caused her many days worth of clean up along their borders. She paused a few yards before the other woman, her slight height of 3' 6" standing at attention as she bowed slightly to the stranger before speaking. "I bring greetings from the Inferni clan. We've had a shift in our leadership these past few seasons and with that a whole cascade of changes have taken place in our lands. It's my duty to learn of the packs and clans that we share this territory with and to try and maintain reasonable relationships with them..." She studied the woman before her for a moment before she added. "I'm Zana, the Caelum of the clan.." she hoped that things would go easy between the two, for things had been tense between the clan and court once and she wished to learn more of the court as well as show that she would try and tread fairly with the pack. - Terra - 12-25-2011 [html] OOC
Terra's ears swiveled forward, completely focused on the hybrid before her. She was so tiny! Her eyes sparkled with amusement as she took in the petite stature. Terra knew that coyotes were smaller than wolves, but this was tiny even for a coyote's standards! She was careful not to laugh, not quite ready to disrespect the guest that she had invited in. There would be time for games later, when she knew the hybrid better. They both had fox patterned coats, which was a delight to the red rogue, used to having her coat stick out far too much for her own liking.

She now watched this stranger who was like her in coloration but Zana could already feel that that was as far as their similarities would run. She studied the taller woman after she'd introduced herself, wondering just what this creature was thinking as she waited for a response from the lady. IT didn't take her long at all to find out though, for as the woman spoke it seemed that Zana had found the worst canine in the pack to speak to of politics and social interactions. She would have sighed to herself but it was unbecoming of her position and she didn't like the attitude of the creature she was stuck with. She blinked for a moment as the woman spoke of Zana's blood and it holding no grounds here. The small Lykoi woman should have been offended but her sister had once come from these lands and she was rather proud she held no sway here, for she doubted the pack was any better than the rest she'd traveled through. Her grey lilac eyes sparkled slightly as she admitted. "I should have called for a leader, but perhaps if you can take my greeting back to the pack later.." She smiled slightly if not a little bitter as she informed the woman of one thing she didn't know. "You know nothing of my blood and what it holds within these lands.. but if you would still wish to offer me a tour I would be willing to follow." She doubted that she would learn anymore than what the clan had done to the fellow from Anawaya who had informed Vesper and herself that he was a spy for their leader, but she would tolerate it for now. This was her duty and responsibility to the clan. - Terra - 01-01-2012 [html] OOC
Terra grinned happily as the hybrid spoke. She had no problems telling the leadership that an Inferni hybrid had come to visit. That was actually something she'd do immediately. Terra wasn't too sure what to make of this offering, but it sounded like something leadership would like to listen to. As for Zana's blood, Terra didn't care at all what weight it carried. In her mind one's place was determined by their pack and their actions, not who their family was. The only exception to this was when the blood determined what you were, such as her father's blood making her a luperci.
