"You say that as though I am going to argue." Aiden said, looking up at her, the corner of his mouth twitching. "Remember Katherine...you are my wife now. What you want, you can have...within reason." He shrugged slightly, then looked up as Ladon followed Whisper, except he had caught something a little...bigger than a rodent; he was dragging an entire sea serpent through the castle.

Aurinda caught the smile from Ulfric and returned it quietly before getting a fruit herself and cutting it into slices, setting a few to Katherine's plate seeing she hadn't taken anything else. As the two exchanged their morning greeting she couldn't help but smile a bit at the awkward tendencies of Katherine at first. However, when the topic of Aurinda coming along was brought up, she paused a moment and glanced to the three men, checking each for their responses as she took a bite of her own fruit. As the issue was settled she actually let out a light sigh and smiled softly. "You didn't tell me I'd be meeting your mother." she murmured softly to Katherine as she actually sounded a bit nervous. "Do I need to go and change? Or will I be presentable?" she inquired once more as she looked to Katherine again, her eyes sincere in her inquiry.

Katherine almost replied to Aurinda, but instead a weird strangled shriek escaped her lips as her gaze fell on ladon. Practically falling out of her seat she sprinted over. 'Leave it! Let it go!!' She exclaimed, shooing the dragon, which was at least 30 times her size and could eat her in one gulp, away from the serpent. 'What do you eat from this?' She demanded, pointing at the serpent. Whisper squealed and came sprinting over, hiding behind Katherine to stare and wiggle at the serpent.

He shrugged as he stayed standing, looking down at her. "I just transform, and I stay conscious. It's automatic for me to do so, so I'm not entirely sure what I do." Illiana spent a moment in silence, thinking on what she could do. It was something she often did before she spoke -- and it was the way she came up with good ideas. "I could watch it," she said eventually, turning to Za'rai with a bit of a smile and the glint of adventure in her eyes. "I could watch you transform." [[Well, better late than never]]

Akantha nodded "We can help with that," she said, gesturing round to her beta's "We are all learning the art of control, and remembrance. I've mastered it, but I've been a werewolf for a very very long time..." "I suggest we announce to the camp what we're going to do, and where we're going to march. Tomorrow, and all the days after we continue our training while we move towards Malia -- collecting any wolves and packs along the way we can find. By the time we get to Malia, we should have quite the army. Do you agree?" 'I wouldn't call it an army yet.' He drily responded, examining her cautiously. 'And we need to come to an agreement with the other alphas- we can't just pick them up. We either fight them for dominance or we co-lead.' He noticed he was saying 'we' and found that although he had lost his own pack, he still had the mental mindset of an Alpha- he was still strong, with the correct caution and determination, and his high strategic intelligence. He wondered if they'd run into his old pack as they travelled, and his eyes darkened at the thought. if we do, I'm going to be the one to rip YOU to shreds, and we will see who is the more capable alpha then. he thought to himself, shivering slightly at it.

(Hello Lily!)
(Blood and Night, how did you two meet again??)
Aurinda jumped and nearly cried out herself as Katherine screamed. Though as she saw what she had been frighted about she actually smiled lightly and rose to her feet, though she didn't approach the situation. Aurinda had grown used to Ladon dragging around his prey from his hunts, so to her it truly hadn't been much of a problem. But, being the queen was from an ocean and water-loving society, she could understand the horror of it all in Katherine's mind. A sea serpent in the jaws of a dragon. Aurinda then moved over and stood a bit behind Whisper and Katherine, her eyes flicking up towards Ladon with a light smirk and an arch of her brow to the dragon.

((Characters will fit anywhere!!! I will always find a way to bring them into the plot!! ^.^ if you just tell me the kingdom you'd like to place them in, I can most definitely compensate~
And we met in year... 9? Night I think? My best friend introduced us. We were friends for about two years and I dated someone for about 6 months, then broke up with him and a few months after me and Night got together. 3 and a half years last week lol. But we've been close for so long it's just not right to not still be friends??? It's all the same really just without the relationship drama and the romantic intimacy))

"I could watch it," she said eventually, turning to Za'rai with a bit of a smile and the glint of adventure in her eyes. "I could watch you transform." [[Well, better late than never]] Za'rai blinked, then shrugged slightly. "I guess you could." He said, nodding slowly, before moving down on all fours; he found it easier to transform like this. He rolled his shoulders slightly, before beginning to transform, his mouth and nose elongating into his snout and his bones cracking and snapping as they shifted about. Within minutes, it was over, and he stood to look at her, shaking himself violently as he shook off the aches of the transformation. Katherine almost replied to Aurinda, but instead a weird strangled shriek escaped her lips as her gaze fell on ladon. Practically falling out of her seat she sprinted over. 'Leave it! Let it go!!' She exclaimed, shooing the dragon, which was at least 30 times her size and could eat her in one gulp, away from the serpent. 'What do you eat from this?' She demanded, pointing at the serpent. Whisper squealed and came sprinting over, hiding behind Katherine to stare and wiggle at the serpent. Ladon blinked, looking between her, then the serpent. "The heart, most of the skin and muscle from around the neck, the lungs and the stomach." He listed off, tapping his claws impatiently.

(I was trying to figure out where I wanted them to be from and who I wanted them to be as well! Probably from Asiralath and making him a light elemental and not chosen!)
(And that makes sense, if it was better being friends and you tried out the relationship stuff then just go back to what fits you two best! I get it!)

Katherine stared wide eyes at the dragon. 'you could catch serpents this entire time and you've beEN THROWING AWAY WHAT YOU DONT EAT?' she half-shrieked, throwing up her arms. Whisper ran to the spot where the stomach ended- only 8 feet down the 25ft serpent- and Katherine found herself striding over to Morcan and Ulfric. Without even asking, she grabbed the giant hilt of Ulfric's broad sword and somehow lifted it with her petite figure, dragging it swiftly back over to the serpent, before taking a deep breath and violently swinging the sword- it cut through the sea serpent like a hot knife through butter. Whisper pushed the remaining 17ft of serpent away from Ladon, and Katherine dropped the sword, adrenaline rush wearing off as she raised her hands to her head, evidently distressed over something. She turned to stare at Aiden. 'All of this!!!!!' She said, wildly waving her arms at what was left, 'is edible!!! To people!!!'
Morcan was still struggling with the fact she'd somehow lifted Ulfric's sword, nevermind swung it and actually cut the serpent in half. Now his eyes widened and he got to his feet, jaw agape. 'The food problem-' 'Solved!!!' Katherine exclaimed. 'Idiots! Both of you!' 'We didn't know!!!' 'OCEANAN'S EAT SEA SERPENT.' 'I should have known that!!' Morcan agreed, running a hand through his hair. 'Will you teach the cooks?' 'Of course I will, you numskull!'
Varezi was currently facing a food problem. With threatening war, lack of trade with other countries and low funds, they had started to struggle for food. The people were slowly starving and even the castle was struggling to feed their Royals adequately. And Katherine had just fed the city with a single sea monster. 'If Ladon can catch one of these at least once every two days-' 'Then the people can eat.' Morcan finished, now grinning like a Cheshire Cat.

Aurinda watched it all quietly, her smile sitting on her lips the whole time. She seemed unphased as Katherine went back and grabbed the sword, swinging it with strength and accuracy. As the queen whipped around to the men and yelled at them, insulting each of them for their lack of knowledge, her smile turned to a smirk that mirrored Morcan's own cheshire grin. Her eyes flicked to Katherine and she nodded gently before looking back to Ulfric, Morcan and Aiden, quietly wondering to herself why the kings of the nation hadn't even thought about a source so readily available. It was past now, Katherine had solved a crisis on her first day of being a queen. Aurinda looked back to Katherine and offered to take the sword if she wished, glancing over her dress to check if she'd gotten any sea serpent blood before looking back to Katherine, her eyes still glimmering with excitement, "You've outshone the kings on your very first day." she murmured to her with a smile and a little bit of a laugh.

((I'm still giggling over the fact that you though I was a girl xD )) [[xD for some reason I thought Nighteyes was a feminine sounding name idek...next time go for beefstar or testosteronepaw]] Illiana stood back, giving him space. Thankfully, Akantha's tents were always big for such a reason -- she could do the same. One time she'd asked if they could have 'bedroom fun' while she was transformed, and the magess had slapped the alpha so hard she was old cold for three days straight. Yet, Akantha was the furthest thing from her mind now. Instead, all her thoughts were on the creature in front of her -- it was magnificent, the beauty of the transformation as magic older than anything known wove around a man and did such things, made his very body shift and contour into this statute of strength. This art work. This...wolf. "Do you like being a wolf," Illiana breathed, before she even realized that Za'rai couldn't respond.

Katherine blinked at Aurinda and held out the sword, unphased by a woman asking for one; most women used swords back in Oceana, or were generals in the army, and she figured Aurinda could probably carry the weight of the sword back to the Elite. Her cheeks flushed at the handmaiden's words- she hadn't noticed really- she'd just been thinking of the people. 'I can teach you to make boats,' she pleaded, knowing this was very much outside of their culture. 'I can show you to fish with the water element, to sail and find the correct areas to find the serpents; I can teach you all how to cut it correctly and which parts are poisonous, I can show you so many things if you would let me.' Morcan was bristling warily as she spoke of building and sailing, of fighting, possibly, with beasts of the sea. It wasn't natural- not here. He looked to Aiden for his verdict, knowing the kingdom would be unhappy to see their queen doing something physical that was not childcare. 'I can heal.' She added. 'Water elementals can heal- I know you all struggle with medicine, if you allow me to study and to teach, Aiden, I can help so many people.' Teaching, yet another job for the men- women tended to be assistants and never researchers. They taught to read and write, not particular studies.
