Elder | 神話 Shinwa

神話 Shinwa was born from the pack's healer and a cursed wolf from another pack, resulting in her being born with a curse to see wolf's thoughts, being able to see what every wolf thinks. Over time of easily predicting thoughts however, she grew cold and distant, and her gaze tends to scare wolves.

Shinwa was travelling on an empty stretch of Prarie, she was quite hungry winter was coming, that meant prey was scarce and she needed a safe place to stay soon, which meant finding a pack. She didn't particularly like the presence of other wolves, especially big groups their thoughts were loud and overwhelming, so she usually distanced herself from them.

She sighed, she'll give hunting a try one last time before she'll decide to temporarily join a pack. Sniffing the air didn't give her much hope, just a hare. She went after the trail quietly, that was what she was good at, the problem was actually catching the prey. The hare soon noticed her presence and darted away, Shinwa went after him fast, but not fast enough. After a hopeless chase she stopped disappointed, she'd have to find a pack after all. Wait, she already did. In the chase she hadn't noticed crossing one of the Night-glow pack borders. And soon enough one of the pack scouts guarding it noticed her. It was a beautiful pink and black wolf with white splotches over his coat. He approached her warily. "You are on Night-glow pack territory, what are your intentions." She knew from his thoughts he was trying to seem threatening, but couldn't hold the eye contact with her. She had that effect on wolves she chuckled a little, "Calm down I'm simply a traveler looking for a place to stay." He hesitated and nodded. "Follow me."

The wolf whose name she learned was Nocturneblosson lead her to the pack camp. The thoughts of the wolves around her got louder, and seemed to be focused on her as a newcomer, mostly harmless curiosity but a few hostile gazes as well. She stared back at them and most of them turned away, except for one, a pure white she-wolf, Shinwa noticed that her thoughts were different from everyone else, focused on sounds, smells and feelings not her sight like for most wolves, it was grounding in a way.

Nocturne walked over to one of the dens and called the lead wolf over. It was a small white and brown she-wolf. "Another traveler?" She asked with a sigh, Shinwa recognised how worried she was about her pack surviving during the winter and having enough food. "I can help with hunting, I'm good at catching up to prey." she lied hoping to get the chaser position because she needed to learn that. "Alright, you can stay. Nocturne will lead you around the camp." And so he did, he introduced her to most wolves.

One of her huntmates- the stalker was the pure white she-wolf. She tried staring at her to test her reaction again, but she didn't look away. "You can look at me?" she asked curious about it. Leisha tilted her head at the question a bit confused. "No, actually i can't see your eyes, I'm an albino and that makes my eyesight poor i can just see your shape and color blurry, but not much else." "Oh that makes sense, most wolves can't look in my eyes you know. They scare them." Hearing the questions in her mind she decided to tell her more, she didn't know why she felt like talking to Leisha, maybe it was because her thoughts were so different from everyone else and so comforting to listen to, Leisha didn't judge her not like most wolves do.

Shinwa spent many moons at Night-glow pack, over the time she and Leisha got really close and became mates. They both knew it won't last but they still ejoyed their time together. They even had a few puppies a litter of 6, some took after them like Wren a white female that took the white coat and eyes after Leisha and Kota light male with white patches and eyes like Shinwa's.

They took care of them together but far too soon Kota passed away and it tore Shinwas heart apart. They did their best to comfort each other but Leisha knew how much she hurt and told her it was okay if she wants to go on her travels again, she knew it would help her mental state. And so after their pups grew into adolescents Shinwa decided to go once more. Leisha promised she'll take care of the pups and maybe she'll go find her again as a traveling wolf too once she's ready. And if they won't find each other there they'll find themselves again in the stars and with little Kota too.

Lore: Feeling annoyed and worn out by the constant glares and scared looks at her just because of her cold and distant appearance. it wasn't her fault she was born this way? shinwa thought to herself as she paced through the forest. Suddenly a wolf grabbed her by her scruff and dragged her to a cave. Inside friendly smiles and bows were thrown at her, "this must be a dream.." she muttered as the wolves looked at her with such kindness and joy, a wide contrast from the looks she had gotten usually. She decided to enjoy the moment, finding solace in this welcoming pack, before leaving they gave her a crafted necklace to wear.

Lore: Shinwa entered ShiningStone pack soon after leaving the previous one. The pack was welcoming but also mainly kept to themselves, which she took as a chance to relax. Not as many wolves flinched at her gaze in this pack, and she could sense no fear. The atmosphere only held a sense of calmness and curiosity. She wondered, why was no one afraid of her?… But then she noticed that a decent number of them had strange eyes too. The herbalist had shiny glossed over eyes although she seemed to see perfectly fine, five different wolves had 3 eyes instead of two that would blink at all separate times, and one even had eyes that appeared to have a trail of light constantly flowing out of them. These wolves must have been used to strangeness, and they treated it as normal.

Knowing this, she could truly relax. She spent a while at the pack, slowly getting to know a bit about each wolf, and even had puppies with the stud male. She was happy, but as the pups grew, she thought more and more of her mate Leisha and the pups they had together, their poor pup Koda that passed too soon.. She knew she had to keep moving. It may have been comfortable, but she had her rest and now planned to leave once her pups were old enough to take care of themselves, and she knew the pups will be well taken care of.

SpoilerShinwa ventured into the mountains hoping to find a more calm pack to stay in during the coldest days of winter. Snow clung to the ground and branches, as little tweety birds sang sorrowful songs in the wind. A chilling cold breeze ruffles her fur as sudden voices start to fill her mind alerting her of the presence of others. Their minds were filled with many thoughts and desires that Shinwa had heard many times before, their thoughts held no hints of threat so she scrambled out from the bushes and into the area where the other wolves were.

She was met face to face with three beautiful she's which she knew were hunters by their thoughts. They stood high and strong which was followed by calm gazes, when they spotted Shinwa, their thoughts were calm and curios. The she with storm eyes spoke first, "Greetings, your a traveler?" Her thoughts were friendly, full of energy which was normal to Shinwa, the other two were more guarded and shy as they kept their distance.

"I am, I wish to stay in a pack for the winter" Shinwa spoke calm and collected. "Your more then welcome, are pack loves new visitors." The stormed eye she spoke with a friendly smile signaling to Shinwa and the others to follow. Shinwa followed hoping the pack would be friendly, but soon her mind exploded with voices of all kinds. They enter a camp filled with wolves chatting and talking with not much attention being brought towards Shinwa.

They come to a stop and Shinwa already has a headache and gossipe for ages. "This is are leader -Juraki-" The other female says nodding towards a male wolf sitting on an overhanging rock. "Greetings traveler your welcome to stay here as long as you need" -Juraki- spoke with tired eyes but his eyes sparkled with pride. His thoughts were full of the wolves who lived here and his love for each of them. "Thank you" I give a thankful nod and find a warm place to lay. I observe the camp watching each of the females relax and care for the young, their thoughts full of kindness which was different, no evil filled anyones thoughts.

The pack was calm rarely any outburst let alone threats of any kind. It put her mind at peace for once to just enjoy such tranquil scenery. Many of the pack's pups took interest in Shinwa as they would crowd around her feet wishing to play. Shinwa took much pride and joy in caring for the young during her stay even having a few of her own to care and look after.

Once it was finally time to depart each wolf from the pack gave Shinwa a rose petal to remember them by. Shinwa cherished each petal keeping them with her throughout the rest of her journey.

SpoilerShinwa was padding through Coniferous Forest when she was face to face with a gray wolf with black and brown markings. The wolf was clearly quite old and frail, but exuded an air of independence and by no mistake it was an alpha. He didn't seem thrown off by her gaze and instead he gave a small smile. "A traveler, are you?" He asked.

She nodded her head and responded in a monotone voice. "Yes, I am." She tried to gauge this wolf's thoughts, but the only thing he seemed to be thinking of was how to invite her to his pack. Before he could say anything she spoke. "I'd like to stay in your pack for awhile, if you'll have me of course." He gave a smile and nodded, turning around. "My name is Shinzu, by the way." He said, introducing himself.

Shinwa glanced down at him as she followed his lead, he was quite small, but perhaps that was the old age. She looked ahead as she spoke. "It's either brave or stupid of you to be walking out here in your state." She said. Shinzu only chuckled at this. "I'm an old man, I know. But if I so happen to die on a walk in the forest, then that is my fate." He said calmly. His calmness took her by surprise as she looked down at him. "You aren't afraid of dying?" She asked. "Most leaders are." She added.

Shinzu shook his head. "I am not afraid of death, why be afraid of the inevitable? I know that when I die, the right wolf will take my place and continue leading this pack on." He said as he led her into the clearing of his camp. She couldn't help but look at him with an ounce of admiration, clearly his years of living had built his wisdom.

During her stay, she grew quite fond of Shinzu. He seemed to act fatherly with everyone, despite their differences. One evening they were both crouched over a bovine carcass eating when Shinzu began talking to her. "I think the reason I enjoy your company so much is because you remind me of my daughter." He told her. Shinwa tilted her head. "Coco?" She asked. Shinzu shook his head. "No." When he saw her confused expression he continued. "Neyti and I had two pups, Coco and her sister, Mud. When Neyti abandoned us Mud grew restless and she became a traveler very young." His tone grew quieter with every word. "She died at only 9 moons old." He said as he gave a few licks to his paws. "In some ways, I think your visit has been a blessing. It's like Mud is visiting me a second time." He gave a sad smile, clearly Mud's death still weighed heavy on his soul.

Before her departure Shinzu forced himself off of the rock he usually layed on and he slowly padded over to her, his legs wobbling with every step. He handed her a fancy rope and gave her a smile. "You were a blessing to this pack and to me, take it so you do not forget us." He said and so she took it and wore it on her tail proudly. She would never forget the fatherly Alpha, and a part of her knew she would see him again one day.

SpoilerShinwa padded through the trees in a , when she caught a scent of an unknown wolf. Right when she was trying to figure out where the scent was coming from, she heard a rustling in the brush.

BOOM! A large wolf, Prowler, popped out! "Surprise!! I hope I didn't scare you too much, Hi my names Prowler. I have a pack nearby, if you need any food or coverage for a few days! ...Unless you are already in a pack..." Prowler stepped back after being excited.

"Actually, I would very much appreciate a temporary pack and some food! I'm Shinwa, I'm a traveler and jump from pack to pack exploring in between. Where is your pack?" Shinwa questioned him a little but trusted him by the way he spoke and acted. Prowler took her to his pack and introduced Shinwa to his packmates and their pups.

The last packmember that Shinwa was introduced to was Eclipse'Foot. Eclipse'foot was a BEAUTIFUL, if not GORGEOUS male wolf! He was so sweet to to Shinwa. As time went by, Shinwa and Eclipse'foot had bonded the most! As Shinwa was leaving the pack, Eclipse'foot gave her an Ebony Jewling butterfly. She loved it! Shinwa was finally 7 years old, so she needed to go back to her original pack, so she trekked on home!
