Morganna Archer-Lyall
I was thinking maybe the adults can hop in this thread and the kids can have their own separate threads to keep things a bit less cluttered? Tagging pups for visibility so they can start their own threads if they want. @Vareth @Vaeda @Anduin @Caelia @Jenessa @Ragnar - trying to not double tag...
This is my kingdom come

The Archer wasn't quite sure what had come over her to think it would be a good idea to drag six puppies over to the rise, other parents in attendance or not. Thankfully, once they started moving, and realised Morganna wasn't going to slow down for their scuffles and tiffs, things had started to go a lot smoother.

She moved to the northern edge of the rise, and watched the willows for a moment, thinking she wouldn't even be surprised if her sister was already strolling out to meet her. She managed a smirk, @Ravenna was diligent alright, but her older sister hadn't even bothered to send a scout ahead. She tipped her head to the sky to summon her sister and nephew, and their children. They had visitors. But urgh, she wasn't exactly looking forward to admitting she was a grandmother already. She was sure @Sven would get a good laugh out of that one.

Sven Archer
Things were starting to slide back into something like normal, and it helped greatly to soothe Sven's reawakening venom. Since the scuffle with @Blitz he was more at ease, regaining both his position and his confidence with it. Back where he belonged, with the whole of pack acknowledging it despite what had been taken from him. If only he could shake those lingering suspicions.

One who had always been a target of those was calling now, out from the Rise where she always seemed to be when she wanted their attention. It was a beautiful place for sure, he could understand her affinity to the fields. Lifting himself from the river's edge, he padded toward the source, singularly working eye watching for her figure to break over the horizon.

She wasn't alone, however. He'd expected perhaps one other with her, but certainly not the bustling crowd that danced through the dying grass. The Scowle's newest generation was here. Sven tipped back his head and sent out his own summons, asking @Leotie to bring the children so that they might meet their various age-mate relations.

"Please tell me these ain't all yours again," he spoke to Morganna when he finally drew close enough, left eye roaming over the many different faces. He remembered, bitterly, the last wave of offspring she'd sent their way. There was still hope for this crop to be better than the one that came before, however.

Leotie Rhys
not looking for some fairytale bliss

Leotie felt a little more at ease about things in the ridge now that Sven had his leadership back. It felt like life was getting back to normal and the way it was supposed to be. At least how it was supposed to be in her mind. There was also relief in the tawny woman that the challenge had only been a scuffle. She'd never doubted Sven but she'd worried about injuries after he'd only just recovered. All if that was over now.

The children were growing bigger and running about on their own now which left her some extra time. Leotie was finally really settling back into her duties and that in itself was something to be relieved about. She'd never really been comfortable sitting around doing nothing all day.

She'd started the morning with a border patrol that she'd finished and had just reached the den when she heard Sven. He was summoning her and asking for the children. Some curiosity bubbled up inside her but she pushed it aside to call for the children.

“Avella, Scully come along you father would like us to meet him,” she called in her motherly tone. One that she was sure they knew the request was not to be argued with. Once she had both her children with her she led them to where she would meet up with Sven. It didn't take long to get there and when she did she came up alongside side Sven's flank her fur brushing his. Leotie also took note of Morganna and the puppies that we're with her. “Hello Morganna,” she greeted the woman formally with a respectful dip of her head.

Enoki Archer
Curiosity was still a lethal concoction for the elderly and the familiar tone of the peachy eyed Archer announcing her impromptu arrival; in true Morganna fashion, was a potent dose strong enough to urge even the aging Consul out from within the confines of the communal den. Aching muscles and sore joints clicked into place as Enoki slithered out into the open air and made at a snail's pace for the borders behind the likes of Sven and his family. If only she had a quarter of the energy the kids had.

The going was slow and tedious on Enoki's tired limbs, but the woman would be damned if she missed out on a chance to reunite with the former Ridge member. While she still had a chance to do so and father time allowed her the luxury of being able to walk such great distances still before the four walls of the den would be all she knew permanently. 

"Morganna." Enoki called out softly once she emerged from the depths of the willows, the smoldering amber hue of her eyes sweeping over the near overwhelming sea of new faces that accompanied her. Had she counted right? Six pups, and were they all hers? Unbeknownst that Sven had already teased such a question while she was still trekking through the territory. Leotie beating the old woman as well.

Late, but still there.

The weariness of her walk began to truly sink in, though, and the graying woman gave an apologetic smile as she lowered herself gingerly into a lay beside Sven's blind side after giving him fair warning as not to accidentally startle him. Limbs shaking in the process. Salmon tongue lolling lightly. How embarrassing for the retired matriarch.

Ravenna Archer-Lyall
and with a spark its going to be


Ravenna Archer-Lyall was already promptly moving along her territory to do her part of work for the day in the pack. As a leader when she was not making sure everyone within her ranks were doing their jobs properly she was searching for herbs or tidying up the infirmary. After Sven's injury and when the flora in the area seemingly got sickly, the stores for herbs were low. She had already brought one cluster back to the den and was headed back out when he pup, Ragnar, decided to come along in order to help her carry. Likely, @Freyja was off with one of the other pups or her father.

Moving towards the outskirts of the Dropping Willows toward the fields where they found an abundance of their medical herbs, they heard the call of Morganna. Ears perked curiously, Ravenna went and Ragnar followed suit. Here she met up with Sven, Enoki, Leotie, and a collection Scowle pups, six, to be exact.

The happiness of Morganna coming with them to meet and greet before winter came and kept them from doing so easily was evident. Ravenna's tail waved like a banner behind her and she moves in to bark excitedly and nose at her older, smaller, sister's nape and then she dances back, looking over the pups. "Well hello to you all, my new nieces and nephews." She assumed the six children had to be both from her and Skoll's litter, having been formally told that her co-leader Celandine would be having pups with her older brother, however a grand-neice was definitely not expected.

Ragnar all the while, would politely introduce himself to his aunt from the Scowle which he had heard much about until then turning his attention to the visiting pups.

Morganna Archer-Lyall
This is my kingdom come

Morganna's tail began to wave as the willow wolves came out to meet them, concern crossed her features at the litany of new injuries her nephew had acquired, though he seemed to be managing just fine so she wouldn't make a fuss, mustering a smirk and a laugh to his question, though she would hold out on answering it until the rest of them arrived. Her greeting to Leotie was warmer than on their previous meeting. She wasn't an Archer but she had stuck around and seemed to be good for Sven, so this time when she said, "Hey Second," It was with the obvious twinkle of a tease in her eye and a softer smile on her lips. It might even have passed as affection for the oldest daughter of Elettra.

There was no containing her enthusiasm once her eyes fell on the distinctive black and white pelt that was moving their way next though, "Kiki!" Her feet wouldn't stay on the ground as the older wolf approached, though she barely restrained the desire to tackle the woman to the ground, she did move closer to drag her teeth affectionately along the older woman's temple once she had made herself comfortable, quickly shifting back to a position where she would be in Sven's line of sight once her greeting was through.

She engaged in Ravenna's greeting with a small shove of her own, pulling herself up short of engaging in a full play bow in light of questions yet unanswered. "The grey one, Sedna, an' the redder black one, Vareth, 'er mine, those two, Vaeda an' Anduin are Celandine an' Skoll's, we found SeeJay stinkin' o' vermin up in th' Cedarwood so she's ours now," and her tone very much dared anyone that ever questioned it to fight her, as she continued to survey the gaggle of youth behind her affectionately, pausing over Jenessa with a momentarily held breath. She wasn't ashamed of the girl at all, but she needed to brace herself for the coming comments. "An' Jenny, or as Odin call's 'er, Nessie... Is m' granddaughter." She was ready for the ribbing to commence, but still firmly maintained that she was not old enough to be a grandma.

Alas, without needing to ask, her sister went on to introductions. The two pups of her own being Sedna and Vareth being her and Renier's pups and Vaeda and Anduin being her brother Skoll's, both two more each of many children her eldest two siblings had. The fifth pup was a lost child which they had taken in. Of course it would be lovely if the youth was able to find her parents again but with the circumstances it could have easily been assumed they may not have made it due to the coyotes.

Then, last, the black pup was mentioned. "Grandmother!?" Ravenna couldn't help the flat out snicker, nudging Sven on the shoulder as an incentive to pipe in. "Well, look who's getting up there!" Ravenna leans back, tail high, as though ready to dodge and attack should get sister retaliate physically from Ravenna's verbal assault.

Once she was sure she was safe from her quick witted sister, her silver muzzle tosses into the direction of the cluster of pups. "Those blonde twins over there, that's Ragnar and Freyja."
