In the dark days. [Open]

[kahara]

Heltiva Hectia

[/i]. Hellions among Hellions with a respectable female leader.

This was a highly valued feature for Heltiva. For what is any group with a formidable, yet respectable, authority figure? In a group of Hellions it was only fit that the lead position was taken by a female. If a male had control, it would have been much less likely that Heltiva would have joined. In the world of Hellions, it was ladies first. Plain and simple.

Heltiva wasn't narcissistic or egotistical; but, she was very cruel and unforgiving. She wasn't raised poorly or taught bad manners, in fact, she had great manners (when it came to other Hellions). It just so happened that she turned out to be an extreme purist. To the extent that she kills stray, non-Hellion cubs. If it meant bettering the future for the species; then it was no true crime. The green Hellion felt no regret for the small lives she took. It was her honour, if anything, to do the deeds she did so willingly.

But today was not a day for cub slaughter and spreading the word of the purest of species. No, rather, she was spending the afternoon stretched out in the grass near the entrance to the dens; soaking up the sunshine and enjoying every moment of it. [/ul][/blockquote]

{:Phan:}

The dark purple 'ess surveyed her territory proudly in the

light of the early morning sun; each day more and more

ladies were joining her cause.

"Yes. This is indeed shaping up to be a good day."


Her smile turned sour for a moment as her thoughts

turned to her daughter, Spectre. She knew something

was amiss when the young female submitted so easily to

Toshi's orders. What to do about it though, would have

to wait.


She caught sight of a new recruit and slowly padded over

to her, sitting down a few steps away and resting her tail

on her paws. She smiled and called to her, "Enjoying

your new home, my dear? I do hope you'll enjoy

yourself here, from what I've been told about you, I

believe you'll fit right in."[/color][/blockquote]

HELTIVA HECTIA

[/i] Greeted Hectia. "I am, indeed. It's a fit place to call home. For both the land itself and those of us who claim it. Nothing else of my past can compare." Said the Hellion, as she recalled the places of her past. There was no truer statement than what she had claimed. For everyone home behind here was no where near close to what she had now. It wasn't just the land, either. The pride itself was well ruled and the members enjoyable to be around, so far.

"I hope that more, of pure blood, will find this place of purity and fit in. And if they are not of pure.." Her thoughts trailed, but she was clearly thinking of quite a few things that could be done. "Pardon my trailing thoughts. But, if it isn't so bold of me to ask, are there plans of helping to further purify the world?"

Her pose was still very laid back; there wasn't much to hint at an over-eagerness to act upon the impurity in that moment. So it could be assumed that she was only asking for the sake of good conversation.[/ul][/blockquote]

Toshi Yuu

Toshi had just finished a tasteful slice of rabbit-meat and was just about to exit one of the many chamber when his audits picked up Phantasmogaria's voice. The ice-cold optics of his sought out her figure. She was speaking to an unfamiliar face. A new Hellion member? The blue male walked closer, "Lovely day ain't it?" He opened with to make his presence known.

[Buri]

{:Phan:}

The smile grew slightly, and her eyes glittered, "I'm

pleased to hear you say that, though my full name is

such a mouthful. You may shorten it to Phan if you like,

or 'Milady'," she chuckled lightly at the last remark. She

thought for a moment, then nodded, placing a paw upon

her chin, "We shall need more males of course, so you

and the other ladies may help me secure the future of

this pride. If you happen across any strays along the

territory, do whatever you must to get them to me."


She felt Toshi's approach and turned her gaze toward

him, "Ah pet, how is my precious feeling today? I

assume everything is going smoothly according to

plan?"


Her thoughts once again turned to her daughters.

Though she had one back within her grasp, the other

was still missing and unable to be found. Her tail

twitched slightly in irritation at the thought of Antimony

escaping her grasp so easily, and she hoped things

would become clearer soon.[/color][/blockquote]

HELTIVA HECTIA

[/i] Hectia said. It was likely that she would go back and forth between M'lady and Queen Phan. Both were fine titles, and both were approved by Phan herself to be addressed by. Hectia liked the sound of a title. Lady Hectia, or maybe, Miss Heltiva. They both sounded very nice in her head. She stretched and gave Phan a nod of agreement.

"Definitely do. The more to pick from, the merrier. My senses are always alert for the approach of another." Heltiva said. Before she had actually joined Subrubere, there was rumor of a family of small Hellions somewhere in Savannah. She even sought to try and find them, but in vain. They were very hidden from the usual spots. "I've heard of a family of Hellions, purists, out in Savannah somewhere. If this stands true, they may have a few males. Perhaps we could see about striking a deal with them." Said the green Hellion thoughtfully.

Her gaze flickered back to Toshi. She had yet to greet him, but offered him a smile and a nod. To her, Toshi; regardless of Consort status, was still lesser than her. The way that Phan regarded him as a pet only further proved to Heltiva, in her mind, that the males were the lesser sex. Talk of plans caught her attention, but she didn't question it and waited to see what Toshi had to say.[/ul][/blockquote]

[Avian]

Toshi Yuu

The Queen seemed to be in a rather good mood today, "Couldn't be better and the plan is progressing as planned as far as I know" he replied and walked up to her side. His gaze shifted to Helvtiva. The blue hellion listened quietly while she spoke of another hellion family. 'Interesting.' he thought, then shifted his gaze up to Phanta(he is the smallest male size) and wondered whetever she'd send out a messenger to find this Savannah family. It wouldn't hurt to make more allies, would it?

[Buri]

{:Phan:}

Phan nodded, "Excellent, keep a close eye on her. We

don't want any...unexpected visitors coming to her

while my back is turned."


She turned her attention back to Heltiva, "A pride you

say? Do you know who leads them, or where to find

them? Perhaps if our numbers continue to grow, it

might be a good idea to venture out with an escort and

propose some sort of alliance, if they're willing."[/color][/blockquote]

((Bleh short))[/size][/color]

[kahara]

HELTIVA HECTIA

[/i] Heltiva said as she recalled all that she knew and heard of through her days of travel.

The green Hellion nodded. "That sounds good. I'd be more than happy to lead the escort when that day comes." [/ul][/blockquote]

[Avian]

Toshi Yuu

Toshi's gaze slit away from his Queen to survey the grassy plain, but no unusual activity in sight. If he ever saw that silver-white male again.. His optics narrowed in anger just by the thought of that male in Hellet again.
Toshi turned his gaze to Heltiva and listened quietly to her description of the other hellion pride. He only nodded to the words and occasionally gazed up at his Queen.

[Buri]

{:Phan:}

The dark purple 'ess mulled it over for a few moments

with her head toward the ground, thinking of what the

best plan of action would be. She flicked her tail and

turned her attention back to Heltiva, "Perhaps if we can

acquire a decent number of new members to this pride,

I would feel comfortable enough leaving someone

in charge while I went on the trip to meet this...

Britannica and her family."


She turned to Toshi, "If I were to leave I would expect

you to stay here and guard the borders as well as my

daughter. As my adviser, I can trust you with that task,

correct?"[/color][/blockquote]

((Still poo brain *sob*))[/size][/color]

[kahara]

HELTIVA HECTIA & AURUMA RABIDUS

[/i] Heltiva said. "I'll keep an eye out for new members to join. Hopefully over the next week or so our numbers will increase.. gradually, of course. The more the merrier, no?" She added on.

The hermaphrodite walked across the terrain cautiously. He had never been to these parts and thus, she had to be careful. An ever watchful eye was surveying everything. When the sound of not-so-distant voices caught his attention, she turned toward them and began to slowly creep that way. Were they friendly, or not? He'd find out soon enough.

"..Speaking of which." Heltiva said quietly as her attention quickly snapped toward an approaching figure. At this distance, it was hard to tell if they were female or male.. were they.. both? She nodded in the direction for Phan and Toshi to look as well.[/ul][/blockquote]

[Avian]

Toshi Yuu

The purple-blue hellion remained silent to listen and process. His neutrality almost shifted to dissapointment when Phantasmogaria said someone and not Toshi's name. Why couldn't he be in charge while she was gone? But her gaze shifted to him and his face "froze" before it could form a dissapointed expression. "I? It would be an honour to look after Hellet for you M'Lady. I won't dissapoint you!".His optics had been focusing on the majestic Queen but slit away from her when they cought the movement of an approching figure.

[Buri]

{:William:}

Off in the distance not far behind the dull golden figure,

a near white male Hellion led a small group of other

Hellions, a young cub of similar coloring gently held in

his maw. He turned for a moment to make sure his

family was still close behind him, "This looks like the

place darling, I hope your brother won't be too upset

that we moved on from Frigore, but with the storms

recently it just wasn't safe."[/color][/blockquote]

[/div]

{:Phan:}

[/color]

Phan's attention snapped in the direction of the

creatures approaching, and she stood, "Heltiva, could

you wait here for a moment? I believe we have visitors

that must be formally addressed."


A smile crept its' way along her muzzle as she walked

with her head held high toward the newcomers, flaring

her large wings out as a show of intimidation, "Welcome,

welcome! I am pleased to see more of my kind making

their way here. I sincerely hope you are all of pure

lines?"[/color][/blockquote]

[kahara]

HELTIVA, AURUMA, APHRODITE

[/i] She said and waited with Toshi while Phan approached the group of Hellions. Her thoughts traveled to the Savannah, where it was said that Britannica's pride was. Perhaps they could send our a search for this pride sooner than they thought? The green hellioness kneaded the ground patiently; but was ready to lead to her queen's aid should this group prove hostile. So far, though, so good.


Auruma hadn't realized that another group of Hellions were approaching. Looked like a small family. He wasn't sure whether or not she should butt in front of them or just stand to the side. But as the young cubs complained of sore paws, he decided to stick to the side.

One of the females from the group nearby approached, displaying her dominance in full. Though her voice was kinder than expected. Almost, dare Auruma think it, welcoming. Not exactly what he had expected. She dipped her head and nodded. "I am of pure blood. Seeking a place to stay." Auruma said. Straight to the point.


Aphrodite trailed behind her father closely, complaining quietly of sore paws. But upon seeing a stranger, quickly got excited and fluttered her small wings against the air. Were they going to be friends? Hopefully!

"Dad! Are we going to be friends with that lady? Can we rest here? My paws hurt! I want to relax, can we relax father? Mom?" Aphrodite asked quickly on a ramble.[/ul][/blockquote]
