This is a nice pack feast for everyone, so drink up and enjoy! This thread is OPEN POSTING and you may post as much or as little as you want!


It had been a week since that terrible call had risen into the sky, followed just a few minutes later by Lilin's commanding summons. They'd arrived to find Colibri curled up against her sister, broken and terrified. Her attack had been random, but dangerously close to home and the young Virding had picked up his slack on patrolling the borders. Niernan had been a good support and Bran had been more than happy to help out. No-one else had been attacked, but he found himself watching Coli carefully from afar. She'd changed the 'F' on her chest into a Norse rune and Saul had found himself proud that she'd been able to make the mark her own.


In all the 'excitement' Saul had forgotten about the letter he'd received from Eclipse a few weeks ago. His own had been enquiring after her health and where she'd settled- her answering words had spoken of a visit. The morning had dawned bright and Saul had moved to the borders for another patrol when he'd found her. Despite his joy at seeing her, he'd been worried about her hunting in the area and had filled her in quickly on what had been happening. Despite their increased patrols on the borders, there wasn't much they could do outside Vinátta and he'd warned his cousin firmly that she wasn't safe.


Eclipse had never been one to worry however and it seemed to roll off his daughters back as they'd made their way to Jordheim. He'd been unsure what his cousin had seen when she'd come through her last month so he'd shown her Jordheim, the houses they lived in. They'd gone and settled Grace up in the stables and turned her out into a solitary paddock- he wasn't particularly interested in breaking up a fight with Mai, who was downright vicious most of the time. The youngest Soulstorm had gone to work when they'd made it back to Saul's house- it was easiest to set up here because he had the largest clearing outside his door.


For the most part Saul had tried to stay out of her way, but he'd watched from inside the confidence that she exuded. He was pleased Eclipse had settled and he was glad she was in Cercatori- Jace was there and she was sure the female would look after his family. Royal blues had begun to stain the sky when Saul moved the table out and Eclipse had started setting things out- darkness had completely descended by the time she was ready. He'd taken the opportunity to give a summons, if the smell of cooking deer hadn't been enough to gather his pack.


When those who had gathered were standing before him, Saul allowed a smile to be given to each other them. Eclipse's short words were taken with a smile before Saul addressed his family. "Welcome, my family. This is my cousin, Eclipse Soulstorm. She has come from Cercatori to lay a feast for us. In light of recent events, we will need to take turns patrolling the borders tonight, but I bid you enjoy yourselves, gorge on the food Eclipse has provided, and celebrate our continued existance." He offered, green eyes turning sympathetic towards where he thought Colibri might be. He knew she would be uncomfortable and he gave her silent permission to leave when she wished. With a small smile, Saul swept his arm towards the food, attempting to catch Eclipse in a short hug of gratitude.
