CieloGrigio of Ravnafjell

Personality

CieloGrigio, Cielo for short, is a friendly wolf, who keeps to himself. He's an introvert, mostly because of being moved and adopted by several packs, but it's also just who he is. He's a keen hunter and gives his all in his job as a finisher. He takes it hard when he fails but no one else thinks he does a bad job. As he fell into his newest pack and found he actually had experience to share with his hunting team in the pack's earliest days he became more sure of himself, and is now a bit more daring and open to initiating a conversation every now and then.

Relationships

Cielo and Azalea got along right from the start. They often sit together in silence or sparse conversation and they feel quite at ease in eachother's company. Early on he found a friend in Akela, who he mentored. Elias gets his bright side to shine with all sorts of fun, pranks and games, and he often drags Cielo to join a game with the pups.

Bio

Cielo was born into THree Wolf Moon pack and he stayed there for a couple of months before beeing adopted. It was a good time, but then suddenly the Yewood Pack's leader came and withed for someone to adopt. His father offered a few pups, and bam, Cielo had a new home, a new pack and he didn't even understand what had happened. Weren't they happy with him? Was that why he had been offered? His mother cried, but that didn't seem to matter. As he got used to his new surroundings he shook off the sadness and started to enjoy his new life. The Yewood Pack really was fantastic, located in the Prairie, with lots of awesome wolves and pups to play with. It was a perfect place to grow up. His leader made him a hunter, and he joined a party as a finisher. He gained a lot of friends, like any handsome and happy wolf would. But then, when Cielo was almost 5 years old his leader wanted to speak to him. He was very old and had picked out an heir. But this heir was very inexpereinced, so for his packmate sake his leader had started to find new homes for some wolves, including Cielo. Cielo was shocked, then angered. What was so wrong with him that two packs had to send him away? Nothing, vowed the leader, but as resources was gonna be stretched thin in the near future he had no choice but to downsize. There was a bright side, though. He had found a great potential home for Cielo. There was a brand new pack located in Norway called Ravnafjell, and their leader was searching fora good finisher, and later, perhaps mentor. Cielo was speachless at this point. It looked like everything was fixed and ready for him, without him knowing anything untill now. Well, he thought ironically, maybe he should be greatful that his leader didn't just chase him. After getting to know a bit more about Ravnafjell and their leader Azalea he accepted their offer. The next day he set out, ran out of the Yewood Pack's territory and headed north. It was a very long road, so Cielo had time to think and reflect. Why had both his birthpack and his adopted pack sent him away? Was he not good enough? His leader had denied this, but he would probably say anything. Why even take this journey? Maybe he should just live out his days as a lone wolf.

It was a very exhausted and depressed wolf that reached Ravnafjell. He met a guard named Frida that was out patrolling when he came close to his potential new pack's territory. He asked for Azalea and she acompanied him on the way. It was a very pretty area with the lovely light clearing and a river running by, the Raven Mountain in the background. And on the top of the mountain sat a brown wolf, looking to be deep in thought. That was Azalea, he understood, as Frida guided him up the mountain.
"Zae, this is our new finisher friend, CieloGrigio," Frida introduced.
"Oh, yes!" She rose to her feat, bowing her head to Cielo, "Nice to finally meet you,"
"Likewise," Cielo mumbled shyly.
"Sit down, you must be tired. Frida, you can go back to your patroll, or did you finish?"
"Yes, I was halfway around when meeting CieloGrigio, so we just continued it home. I'm gonna go eat, I'm totally fried. See you, CieloGrigio," she added before running back down.
"Just Cielo," you call after her.
"So, Cielo, I'm sorry to hear about your former pack downsizing. But I can't express how happy I am that you decided to come here," Azalea said, sitting back down. Cielo didn't anser, partly because of the lump in his throat, but also ... what was there to say? He nodded in thanks.
"I can imagine you are very tired, I'm gonna show you a cave where you can rest. But first, are you ok? You seem very depressed, which is natural. I just hate to leave you with dark thoughts running amok in your head,"
"I don't know. No, I guess, I'm not ok. I'm afraid I'm just ... not good enough for any pack to want to keep me. I have worked hard as a hunter since I grew up, and still ... I don't know what I could have done better," His voice cracked on the last syllable, "Dang it. I'm really trying to be an adult about this and not disolve into a puddle,"
"Your leader told me it had nothing to do with your being inferior. He just had to pick someone, and sadly that was you and a lot of other great wolves who didn't deserve it. I think he has told you so, as well. But don't be afraid to cry or show weakness. There are a few wolves who has been chased or adopted here and the arrived in various stages of distress and sadness. So just you cry and rage when you feel like it, you're amidst friends. And if you ever wanna talk, just seek me out. I'm busy but not too busy to help a friend in need. Furthermore, I can assure you no one will be leaving this pack unless they want to,"
"Thanks," Cielo breathed a sigh as the heavy feeling in his chest got a little less heavy.
"As you were adopted as a pup this is probably also extra hard for you. Being a throw ball makes one vulnerable. Now, let's find you somewhere to sleep. Hopefully the world is a bit brighter when you wake up,"
