Tisana allowed her lids to slide shut. Her breathing became even, and she was entranced in sleep. She was only half-aware of the world around her, where she was, or even who she was. For one moment, she allowed herself to forget.

"Welcome, Tisana. I've been expecting you, dearest." The warm voice called. Pawsteps approached Tisana, and the dark fae stood, ears flicking thoughtfully. "You probably do not know of me...though Light might. Ah, well, I am Celestina, bringer of Flame, they once called me. But isn't Death's time far passed? Yes, I think so....you see, I haven't kept track of time. I've been...busy, to say the least. Well, you've come for truth, and it is the truth you will get. Come, then." She leaped to her paws, dashing away into a haze of greenery.

Tisana padded silently after the strange fae. She didn't know why she was following her; she was afraid. Deathly afraid of this strange fae and her mysterious ways. But still, she followed.

"It's hard, seeing all of this here. For my first moments back I deared the old packs had been taken over by rebellious leaders...then I realized I recognized all of them! I suppose the names had to change after the journey, ah well, I hadn't known about that either untill a moment ago! Amazing how things go on existing outside of Mira's Realm...wait, do you even know who Mira is? I don't know if she ever did succeed in finding the packs...or if she's found the pieces of nine yet...." Celestina stopped in a grassy flatland. A robin flapped and soared above them, delighted tweeting ringing through the area.

Tisana stared up at the robin, watching it fly. "Mira? Peices of ni-" she stopped mid-sentance. Peices of nine... "I didn't imagine it..."

Celestina's eyes sparkled with new knowledge as the robin lighted down on her shoulder. "So you have met Mira, then....she took a vow of silence, so I suppose she would've been unable to tell you her real name....and I suppose you know nothing of the Miran pack..."

Tisana wore a look of confusion on her features. "Silence? Silence's real name is Mira? Why... why is she silent?"

(eh...similar ones to the others;; nine figures, a hidden forest, excessive mist XD )
"There are other packs...no, tribes, beyond your borders, Tisana. Mira was the Teller of the Miran Tribe. My mother was her loyal warrior, and for that, I was offered a home in the Spirit Wood. That's why I've lost contact with your packs. As the legend is written, Mira was the first and only Teller of the Tribe. She was immortal;; no sickness could kill her or even touch her. For this, it is widely believed she was crafted as Verlust, Lupus, Sky, and Wind were. She has been around for countless moons. But the Mirans have not...." She hesitated, shuffling her paws nervously. "This is where things get...strange. Mira was alone in the Mountains of Endless Winter. Some say she stumbled upon a group of roughly unified wolves, and they were the base of her pack. Others say she had been given a pack as the four great leaders were. Nevertheless, she raised them and the Miran Tribe, and followed the laws of the Golden Tribe. However....the four other leaders gave up faith on the Golden Teller. And slowly, Mira's pack did, too. That's when the sickness came..."
"It made them all rabid and mad;; many wolves didn't even know themselves anymore. Mira was the healer, of course. She did all she could, mixed the most powerful remedies the Golden Wolf had showed her, but nothing worked. All around her, her pack was dying. In one last attempt to help them survive, she sent four wolves to the forest: Sparkling Ember, Faint Breeze, Ink, and Dark Fire. The wolves became known simply as Ember, Faint, Ink, and Dark. They each joined with a different pack, taking with them the vow of silence to keep their history hidden. In the end, they were just like any other pack wolves. Mira had sent them away from the sickness."
"But the sickness never really left. The remainder of Mira's tribe fell to it, but they still traveled with her, their paws transparent next to hers. And so she grew silent, since they could read her mind and she could read their. She wandered for a long time, then came to a conclusion: she had to lay them to rest. She found a woodland, long forgotten and untouched by any wolven paws. It was there she found a haven from the sickness, and her companions were free to rest in peace, healthy as normal. She named this place the Spirit wood. She slept in the Spirit Wood that night, unaware that it was not meant to be found by a living wolf. For that, the sickness became a prophecy, which Mira was bound with. It also bound her to silence. Silence untill the pieces of nine were all asembled in front of her. Then, and only then could she speak her prophecy and be free of her burden to join her former coven. Silence she has become, and Silence untill she breaks."

Tisana breathed raggedly, consuming what she had heard. "Silence breaks... peices of nine... can't you tell me more? More about how to fix this mess?"

Celestina frowned. "When Silence breaks, the pieces of nine will be able to enter the Spirit Wood, and she will guide them to the cure. But Tisana...." She heistated. "ONLY when Silence breaks. Don't go searching for this wood;; If you by chance managed to find it, you would only worsen things for your pack, and wolvenkind. Oh, and do you know where Robin went?" She frowned again, glancing about for the bird. "I suppose she wants to get back to the Wood, then. Well, there's another thing: When the cure is found, wolves who died like Robin will be free. But when you do get into the woods, Tisana...you won't have eternity. The pieces of nine are exactly that: nine minutes is all you'll get to find nine parts. And there will be wolves who don't want you to acheive your goal, Tisana. Be brave. Share this with the other healers, and no one else. Goodbye, Tisana." And Celestina vanished.

Tisana ran foreward. "Wait!"
Tisana gasped awake and lay with her head on her paws, waiting for her fellow healers to awake. What did it all mean?

(I'll have Fenrir come in, then  ) The white, muscular brute padded briskly towards Kiara, eyes alight with worry. "Kiara, I need you to find nine wolves. These nine are the only wolves who can save the forest. Their names are Tisana, Asha, Sirius, Kunai, Shadow, Coal, Anelie, Artem, and Sothis....and Silence. Find Silence...without her, and without the nine, all is lost....go now, Kiara! Godspeed!" (Okay...only let her remember three or four names...then she can shout them out before you-know-what happens.  ) |

(who should speak to Magic? I don't know! XD) Magic curled into a ball in the corner, slowly drifting into a disturbing sleep. Mist... everywhere. On everything and everyone.. and the scent of another wolf.
"Who is there?" he asked, ears going back and wary eyes searching the shadows.Sedaka, too, managed to slip into a worried slumber. In front of him appeared a familiar wolf-- Taiga, the old healer, smiled upon the healer... the brute who was once her very own neophyte.
"Taiga!" Sedaka gasped. "...do you know what is going on?"(should I have Taiga give Sedaka some names too... and forget some others? ) |
