How I found 'Souls : Found it on a Top 100 Wolf RP website ^^



Cowslip was weary and homesick. She'd travelled a long way, across sea and rock, wind and rain. The place she'd once called home was Devon, a sparsely populated and rural county of England, but of course she didn't know the name.

Her family had descended from a pack of wolves kept within the Dartmoor Zoological Park, who dug their way out once they realised that the humans weren't feeding them anymore. This had been in her grandmother's time, the time of new knowledge. When Cowslip was born, a very elderly wolf had told her about the time before new knowledge, when wolves were just wolves, no tricky thinking.

That was almost a year ago, and no new wolves could be scented or sighted anywhere, the sparse rocky moors and shingled beaches that she called home remained full of familiar faces. That's when the Alpha's had decided that all un-mated young ones should be turned out to prevent in-breeding, Cowslip's father had been the one to volunteer his boat, neatly restored from the seabed.

And so they went, Cowslip, 4 of her littermates, and 7 of her cousins, and 3 of her half cousins. The journey was long and treacherous, scurvy and dysentry killed 8 members of her family on that boat, and another two claimed by the sea. But death was common for Cowslip's pack, who were killed by strong shetland horses, driven wild by the moors, or from falls when attempting to climb the rocky cliffs to get sure footed sheep.

They'd landed after three hellsaken weeks, there was much snuffling and whining as the family bid farewell to each other, and scattered.

Cowslip had ran along the coast, as fast as her paws would carry her, only stopping to gulp at a dead, foul smelling gull, which was about the only animal she'd recognised in this new country. Sights and smells were different, the land and sea was warmer.

The young ruddy red wolf was getting warmer too. She had to stop and cool off, Cowlsip wasn't used to hot weather.

The sea was a welcoming respite, she'd always swam, even as a pup. She splashed around happily, watching the foamy droplets cascade into the air, trying to snap up a few if they flew particularly high.

She was in her element, Cowslip knew the sea, and that cheered her up slightly. The wolf padded out of the water reluctantly, and gave her small body an almighty shake, sending water spraying everywhere. With renewed vigour, she resumed her run.

The gritty golden sand felt good on her paws, sticking in her toes and matting her fur, and the sky was clear, Cowslip smiled and took a great sniff, almost a lungfull, and stopped in her tracks, skidding lightly.

She smelt a pack...

What should she do?

Cowslip's insticts answered for her, with a long drawn out howl. The wolf cursed her impulsiveness, amber eyes sparking in annoyance. She knew that she'd probably of been heard, and there was nothing for it.

The female sat on her haunches, and waited.

Niro was walking around thinking of how to do something he wanted to, something that would possibly change his life forever, and it was killing him because this question would break his heart if the request was denied. He was almost too distracted when she heard the wolf howled. Niro, hobbled as fast as his three legs would carry him, his forth was broken, and not fully healed, though he still had a bandage on his front paw, to keep the amputated toe in check, he hurt less on that paw now and he was able to move quicker than he had been before. He came upon the wolf that howed, and saw it was definitely a stranger at the borders near the beach. He could see she’d been in the water, though how she could have was kinda beyond him, it was quite cool out and beginning of autumn.

Hello you are at the borders of Cour des Miracles, how can I help you?

The Mohawked wolf asked, staring at the beast with curiousity, this was in a way how he’d entered the pack himself, so many months ago… had it really been almost a year ago that he’d traveled here? Time had flown so fast! And so many things had happened. But he was still young, and he knew that there would be more trouble that he would get himself into, just hopefully not anymore accidents while hunting.

OOC: Whoops, sorry! ^^; Form now edited.

Cowslip felt a stab of fear as she heard footsteps, slightly uneven footsteps. The female test the air, yes, there was a wolf approaching, an injured wolf.

But the injured wolf was frightening to the small female, she'd never seen such adornments on a wolf!

Cowslip flung her ears back, and tucked her tail to her quivering belly, her father had always taught her to be respectful. So instead of looking in the strangers face, she stared at his feet, which she noticed were heavily bandaged, and a toe was missing.

''Hello you are at the borders of Cour des Miracles, how can I help you?'' Said the strange wolf.

The female grazed his eyes momentarily, to show she was listening, then looked at the sandy ground again, trying to appear as polite as she could. Cowslip suddenly became aware of how stupid she looked, quivering with submission and sopping wet.

'' I...I'd like to join your pack, if you don't mind '' She asked, using a soft voice that she usually reserved for the Alpha's back home.

OOC: No problem :3

He was never an intimidating wolf, or at least he never felt to be one so when she cast her eyes from him, he almost forgotten that he was by far a higher rank than her at that moment. She was on Miracles soil so he had rights to chase her out if it pleased him, but he did not care much for the authority, he was just a part of the pack, a higher rank, but he wasn’t sure how much he’d deserved the spot he had now.

Well, the packlands are open, though we do hope that you bring a skill that would help the pack out as well, nothing in our pack can be for free, we work for all that we earn.

He said, did he say that to sternly? He wasn’t sure, he was so new at this and it was just one of the few things he had not done for the pack, then again, he was never this high in the ranks either. He knew better now than never!

As he waited for the wolf to answer, down came Marahute as usual, this time she was not in defensive mode as Niro approached this wolf and he’d been training her to be a little more nicer to other wolves after there was a mishap wit ha stranger that only wished to touch her, though he was naïve and she was being defensive he didn’t blame either of them. Now he was preventing such things from happening by training the bird. She was now perched on his back where she watched the wolf intently, letting the wolf know Niro was hers.

''Well, the packlands are open, though we do hope that you bring a skill that would help the pack out as well, nothing in our pack can be for free, we work for all that we earn. '' Said the mohawked wolf sternly, then looked awkward, like he wasn't used to being of a higher rank.

Cowslip wasn't sure about this question, what did she do at home? Cooked and fished, sometimes chased sheep or horses too, more often then not getting a facefull of hoof.

There was a great rustle of wings as a large bird of prey came out of nowhere, making Cowslip yelp in alarm. The bird took no notice, and settled on the grey wolf's back, staring at her very intently, it didn't need to speak, the message was there ' Back Off! '

The bird made Cowslip nervous, yet astounded..this wolf had it's own bird! Did the other wolves have birds? What birds were they? How did they keep them?

But question time would come later, she needed to tell the wolf her skills.

'' Umm...I can fish and cook I s'pose, it's what I did at home '' She answered quietly, afraid of being laughed at, after all, this wolf trained birds!

OOC: If you want to end this here I’ll be good normally joining threads are pretty short and quick, but I’ll still pull along if you want me to Big Grin I’ll have Meg get you accepted :3

She was quiet for some time and it almost made Niro afraid, he was sure that they could find some work for her, but it was always best to ask where she stood at that moment, and Marahute didn’t make anything better he felt bad that she was scared of her.

She may have the look of the devil but she won’t hurt you.

He said, with a slight smile, and as in answer the bird flapped her wings a few times before beginning to preen herself. That was when he heard her answer, fishing and cooking, those were well enough jobs to work with. especially when there had been some in the pack and that was all they did, the thought hurt him, as one of them he still felt was his fault that she was gone, but this wasn’t a time to be sulking.

Those are good traits, I had been taught how to fish myself, though I don’t do it often anymore, come I will show you around, our king Vigilante would love a new member such as yourself.

He said every word sincere, he didn’t know the king half as well as he should have, but he still knew what a pack needed, and a good strong young wolf was what they were in need of.
