Dalia

She had been born to the packs of Apis and Sciatháin na Saoirse, as a sign of friendship. She knew she had been the least favourite of her siblings in the eyes of her mother. However, when some of her siblings told her of their plan to leave, she wasn’t brave enough to go with them. She hoped if she became a hunter, her mother might respect her. Unfortunately, her siblings that stayed had the same plan. There, during the chaos of the five hunting parties attempting to handle the amount of hunters, she met Andraste.

Andraste was a stronger and smarter wolf than her, as well as the lead wolf’s sister, and could match their herbalist brother in wisdom. Dalia was very intimidated by this younger wolf. She wanted to talk to her, but didn’t know how she would respond. She was pleasantly surprised when Andraste struck up a conversation.

They would spend as much time as possible together, Dalia unable to gain the courage to tell Andy how she felt. During this time, she befriended Tapio, the younger brother of Andy, and the stalker of her hunting party. They would often talk while walking back with their kill. Tapio would always talk about the mischief the four siblings would get up to, and the stern talking tos by their mother and grandmother. Dalia could remember the annoyance of Athena, who was reaching the end of her days and couldn’t handle both her affairs and her youngest grandchildren. 

During her friendship with the siblings, she tried to gain the respect of her mother. She had more stats than Cardea and Tethys, and was just behind Aiolos, and even then she was faster, more agile, wiser and smarter than her brother, wiser and smarter than her mother! But Palaestra did not care. 

During one night time talk with Andy, in the empty quarantine cave, stargazing, Dalia was ready to confess her feelings, but Andy beat her to it. After a heartbeat, Dalia confessed to the same feelings towards Andy. The two became mates that day.
