Big Grin +3

It seemed that joy radiated through Cercatori just after Orin and Shaw's pups were born - the first litter of the pack. The feeling was almost alien to Bangle, and possibly for many of the other faces - both old and new - that were seen gathering in Orin's house that very day. With the event and elated feelings, however, led the coywolf and the red headed female back to her house that evening.

Bangle almost hadn't heard the desperate call of the leader, rolling over in bed just as Skye had gotten up. Barely awake, the gypsy murmured to his mate as she shuffled to answer Shawchert's call. "Y'leavin' me already?" A sleepy grin, a scoff from the female, and the male fell asleep once more. It wasn't long, however, before his side felt cold without Skye there, and so the gypsy awoke.

Fully aware, then, that the female wasn't going out for a pleasure stroll, Bangle dressed and hurried out the door Something was wrong.. very, very wrong. Making his way towards his house, the craftsman took notice of the scents of both leaders not far away, coming in the direction of Orin's house. Strolling over, his maw began to stretch into a grin to greet both leaders, turning the corner towards the building's entrance.

That is.. before the stench of blood hit his nostrils like a ton of bricks.

Bangle's mouth was agape, standing just behind Skye at the doorway to Orin's house - or what was once her house. Everything was covered in dark red blood, and bits of tiny organs strewn everywhere. Orin and her children were nowhere in site, but the house reeked of them. "I--who--?" Bangle managed to choke out, as if he had misplaced his tongue. For the first time in the merchant's life, he was at a complete loss for words.
