About Wild Rye Fields

               

After losing both their partners shortly after one another, Drestig Avalon and Jessie Tainn grew even closer, sharing their sorrow, both dedicating themselves to keeping the other alive. They struggled through winter together, Drestig even managing to recover enough to step up as leader of Oak Tree Bend when Triell went away. But they could not shake the ghosts that kept haunting them in Spectral Woods, the fog full of hurt and evil memories. Finally Drestig decided that the only way he could truly move on was to leave the oak behind and start fresh. After talking with Jessie, he called a pack meeting, proposing that they all uproot to find a new home, untainted by death and nightmares; With catastrophic results.

               

After saying a court goodbye, Drestig left the meeting, determined to head out alone in search of new hope. But before leaving Spectral Woods, he sought out Jessie again, pleading that she follow him, so they could start anew, together. She agreed, after giving Triell her own farewell, and together the two crossed the mountains and headed north. The journey strengthened their relationship further, and when spring arived they decided to creat their own new beginning, by starting a family.

               

They still needed a place to settle though, and as Jessie's pregnancy progressed, time was of the essence. Moving further north, they eventually reached the outrunners of the mountains and the end of the forests, passing out into the lowlands, and here they found the haven they had been seeking for so long. Nestled in the forested outrunners of Serpents Pass, a sea of golden Wild Rye shone as a sign to the pair, tired from travel. Further investigation proved this place perfect for the family they planned to start, and a den was dug out between the roots of a lone oak, near the edge of the forest, where Jessie gave birth to a single pup on May 25th 2016.

               

Meanwhile, Drestig continued his search for like minds, intend on building a strong and safe home for his new family. Eventually he came across a young loner who joined him in a much welcome hunt. After witnessing the young man in action, Drestig offered him a permanent place in the forming pack, and Askan accepted. It would be another month though, before the fourth and final founding member joined their group. Out on yet another hunting and scouting excursion, Drestig came across a peculiar place, and there he found an old aquaintance. Having innitially declined on joining the travelling pair, Icicle had wandered out into the Lowlands after a bad experience trying to join a different pack. Appaled by the story, Drestig took the young wolf under his wing, insisting that he come back with him to join his pack.

               

Cautious, knowing that other wolves have claimed territories not far from the Fields, Drestig takes his time evaluatting his gathered band, unsure if they're ready. The decision is finally made on a clear fall day, when he spots a young bull Elk herding a small group of cows through the territory. Calling together his followers, Drestig proposes a hunt to truly test their skills as a pack. Together they successfully take dwn the bull, and cellebrate by officially staking claim the the Wild Rye Fields.

               

Pack pride colors for Wild Rye Fields are "Autumn Grain (#D7B13E)" and "Avalon Green (#334010)".


The Wolves of Wild Rye Fields

  • Navigation: Northern part of Relic Lore, just north of Nightingale Palisade, in the southernmost part of Larkcall Lowlands.
  • Den Description: Right at the edge of the Lowlands, where open fields meet the forested out-runners of Serpents Pass, flowers and more common grasses give way to a much brighter sort. Waving ears of wild rye stand high, blanketing the rolling hills in a golden sea, from mid spring until the first winter storms knock down the stalks. The fields run all the way to the tree line, only yielding for lighter underbrush where the low pines put the ground in shade. Out in the open, the grain is almost uncorrupted, only a rare few weeds managing to hold their ground among the yellow stalks, mostly along the banks of the wide creek cutting straight through the hills before pooling near the forest's edge, forming a small basin. Close by, among the shelter of the trees, a small den is dug out between the roots of a lone oak in the midst of a wood of pines.
