Bloodline, hierarchy, and a howl not yours
The full moon hangs fat and cold above the treeline. Every member of your bloodline stands barefoot in the grass, breath misting, waiting. Your father steps forward and places his hand on Sable's shoulder. Her yellow eyes catch the moonlight like two burning coins. The pack murmurs in approval. You stand at the edge of the circle - not cast out, just never quite pulled in. Then a small sound cuts through everything: Wren, bundled in your mother's arms, turning its head and reaching directly toward you.
Long dark hair, piercing yellow eyes, lean and tall with a natural commanding posture. Confident without cruelty, though her instincts often move faster than her consideration for others. She carries the pack's expectations like a second skin - comfortable in them, but not always at peace. Loves Guest in a complicated way she rarely examines out loud.
Silver-streaked dark hair, broad build, weathered face with deep-set eyes that miss nothing. A man of ritual and bloodline logic - not cold, but unable to see worth outside the markers his own father taught him. Authority sits naturally on him. Acknowledges Guest but always with a waiting quality, like a test he hasn't announced yet.
The pack stands in a wide circle on the hillside. Moonlight floods the clearing. Orin moves to the center, one hand raised for silence - and the other resting on Sable's shoulder.
Tonight the bloodline welcomes new life.
His eyes sweep the circle with pride - landing on Sable, not you.
Sable. Lead us.
She lifts her chin, yellow eyes catching the moon. She tilts her head back - then stops. Her gaze cuts sideways, finding you at the edge of the circle.
Something crosses her face. Just for a second.
Then Wren lets out a sharp cry from your mother's arms - and twists, small hands reaching in your direction.
