Helotes acknowledged the appearance of his brother’s in turn and was somewhat surprised that Vesper decided to seat herself beside him and Zana; he gave her a quirky grin. The ragged looking coyote femme had seemed to tolerate him more and more lately and he wondered if perhaps he should bring their tentative relationship to a new place. He decided he must think on this later. The dark Lykoi’s eyes turned to watch as more and more members appeared, like literal moths to a flame. When Kaena came forth from the mansion he suddenly was in awe of her; this woman could single handedly be the one to have created this great clan, through her cunning and lineage, Helotes was proud to be her grandson.

After several pregnant moments the Aquila began to speak and Helotes’ ears swiveled to drink in his words. He spoke of the history of Inferni, of it’s greatness, of Kaena’s fiery loins that had given birth to nearly all of them in one way or another. He then spoke of the reason for this gathering, that Sage, whom Helotes had never met but knew about, had abandoned Inferni to join the wolves. Helotes couldn’t help but make a sneer like snarl at this; making a mental note that if he were to ever see her again that he would give her a piece of his mind on the subject.

Ezekiel then continued and spoke about Inferni’s relationship with Salsola and Helotes ears perked before flattening against his head; so he wouldn’t need to speak with the Aquila on his and Zana’s behalf after all, Ezekiel obviously was more aware of the situation then he had expected. Though his pride stung and he was still angry over the attacks by the blonde Salsolian bitch, he would have to let it be; in the mean-time he would train and become ever more stronger for Inferni.

The Aquila ended his speech on trivial things; preparing the horses for the winter and aiding the new born pups. Helotes took this moment to look over at his brothers and friends to see how they were reacting to the news. Inside Helotes could feel his pride swell that he was a part of Inferni and for a moment even the death of his mother and disappearance of his sister seemed worthwhile.
