& i think we're drowning
The Driftwood King felt uneasy. Such a simple plan, and yet his niece threatened to poison the lot, the name of Ranjord could simply drown with her antics. How could she be so fooling to ruin herself when she was not only promised, but tied to another male. A Prince, and Heir no less. Foolish. He was irritated by the situation, yet he was at least happy he would have the children to keep at home. She would be sent to live in Tarben of course, where Erik would become responsible of her. He sighed, pacing in his steps as he stayed in thought.
His head fell back in a howl, calling forth at the meeting area for his pack members and any seeking to join. He climbed his and Marellas throne of Driftwood, taking a seat as he awaited his beloved, sons, daughters, friends and strangers. One certainly came in quickly, always accountable Caspian. He had a strong head on his shoulders, fit for a King some day. The boy gave a bow before sitting in front of the throne, followed by his grey sister Yulla. They were silent, and for a moment he wondered if they knew something was going on. No, no. They couldn't. Yulla was practically grinning from ear to ear. They knew their mother had gone to prepare who would be their matches.
Next came his niece, Sienna. A proud little Monokeros. She looked nothing like his family, but Pontchartrain knew of her origin. As more and more filled the meeting area, a couple new faces stuck out from the crowd. A strange, white and . . . Green male, beside a scarred male. "I see new faces, I am Aegir, Driftwood King of Ranjord. What are your names and your skills?" He waited, wanting to hear the pair of males. The white male spoke. "I am Haku, I was a decorated soldier and commander in my homeland." The King nodded, glancing to Pontchartrain and Valkyrie, before looking back to the pair. "I am Kaito, Haku's brother. Also a solider." He nodded and then looked to the silver maiden beside Pontchartrain once more. He gave her a nod to speak. "I'm Valkyrie, daughter of King Mabbit of Amberbjorne. Soulmate of Pontchartrain. I was a Beta serving in Amberbjorne under my fathers ruling."
The King gave a nod and a smile to everyone, his eyes looking to meet each wolf surrounding him. "It's good to see you all, and good to meet our new faces. We have much to announce." He gave a soft chuckle. "We'll start off this meeting by announcing we have dodged another war, Tarben and Sabertooth had fought each other. This caused the death of the Sabertooth Queen Pandora - And my father, Tarben King Beartooth. His wife, Soraya, killed him after he took Pandoras life. This brings us to a treaty." He looked down to his family. "While we have remained
a peaceful pack, we wish to stick to that option and are offering the royal line of Ranjord to marry into the other nine packs." He spoke proudly, his fear of Esmerays escapade slipping away. "Caspian, my son and heir to my throne, will marry Ayara of Amberbjorne. Yulla will marry Ianus of Sabertooth. Angler will marry a daughter of Hecate in Nightingale. Aegra will marry a son of Swallowtail in Sindri. Pierce will marry his soulmate Cruella of Amaya. Esmeray will marry Erik, Heir of Tarben. Clouseau will marry Dina of Hawthorne. Amaretto will marry Caraxes of Drekistone. and Sienna will marry a son of Esmae in Dawnshire."
He looked to the rest of the pack. "We also have some updated rankings. Pontchartrain, Valkyrie. Given you both have exceptional time serving as Betas, I would like to ask you two to be Ranjords Betas. Haku, test your wisdom as a commander as our act in Delta. Take Pierce as your Heir-Delta, as he was for those before him. Amaretto, you will be a Zeta. Esmeray will be a Theta. Clouseau and Elridge will be Iotas, and Sienna will be a Kappa. The rest of you will be Sigmas." He glanced to everyone. "You also may notice new children here in the pack, please be advised they are welcome. They were found on the mainlands shore abandoned, and will be raised as children of the island. Treat them as your own. If no one else has anything to add, meeting is concluded."
