š¼ Angrboda, the Once-Isolated Caregiver š¼
Angrboda has always been a bit of a loner. Having been disowned by her pack due to a disagreement with her father, the Alpha, she wanders alone in the forest for many sunrises. She rather enjoys this life, though admittedly has quite a bit of trouble with hunting larger meals for herself. She's not an adept huntress, so when she stumbles across a group of four wolves calling themselves a 'pack', she is warily curious if she could gain something from them.
Who she assumes is their leaderāa calm and collected she-wolf named Lilithāis a far cry from the dominant, aggressive Alpha that Angrboda's father had been, and so the loner is met with a surprise when Lilith asks her if she'd like to become a part of the 'Sun Stalker Pack'. Angrboda agrees, keeping her hunting ability, or lack-thereof, a secret for now.
She doesn't have to hide her lack of ability for long through. Lilith calls the pack together about seen sunrises later, after the arrival of Nyx, another wanderer. Lilith suggests that each wolf should have a specific role, and the others agree. Angrboda watches the meeting warily, wondering what she would do. The wolves realize that they'll soon need someone to take care of little ones, which are sure to be gracing the pack eventually. Angrboda, the only wolf besides Lilith who hasn't volunteered for a job, notices all eyes on her. She sighs, she doesn't hatethe idea, she supposes.
Thus, it is settled. Angrboda will be a caretaker, the pack's only one for now. Perhaps Nyx would join her when she finds a suitable healer to replace her, since the black-furred wolf made it clear in the meeting that she would only be a healer temporarily.
As the days go on and the pack takes in a few pups, Angrboda realizes that her job isn't actually that bad. She quite enjoys watching over and teaching the little ones. In fact, she trains the older pups, the ones who aren't yet apprentice-aged, so that when they are ready to start shadowing the hunters, the healer, or the scout, they will at least know a few things. The sarcastic former loner realizes she actually loves taking care of someoneā¦
One day, after a night spent in a different territory with a colorful-furred male, Angrboda realizes she is expecting pups. She's not as upset with the idea as she thought she would be, and when her litter is born, one puppy in particular catches the caregiver's eye.
The tiny female, dotted with striking gold markings, reminds Angrboda of a moth. She names her Acherontia, and dotes on her like she wishes her own father had when she was young. As Acherontia grows, Angrboda watches her daughter play with the older pups, since her littermates were adopted out through Lillemor, due to the resource constraints within the territory. The loner-turned-caretaker sometimes wishes that her little one had someone closer to her own age to play with.
Angrboda's wish is granted when the pack takes in a young female named Daphnis, who is only two moons older than her daughter. On the same day, Nyx has a son, a fascinating thing with a pelt torn with white coloring. Angrboda hopes that Acherontia, Daphnis, and this young maleāwho Nyx names Apantesisāwill be friendly with each other.
Other than her duties caring for the pups, Angrboda also makes friends within the pack, something she had never thought she would do. She often spends time with Fenrir, and teaches the male a thing or two about watching pups. Nyx also tags along sometimes, trying to learn as much as she can about caring for the little ones before she steps down from her role as a healer and gives it to her apprentice, Morrigan. Recently, Fenrir has been inviting his former apprentice, Aphrodite, and her hunting partner Eidothea along as well. Angrboda doesn't mind, though sometimes she has to warn Aphrodite not to be too mean to the pups. While Angrboda herself understands the young huntress's sense of humor,ābeing a sarcastic wolf has its meritsāthe little ones tend to get upset rather quickly with her antics.
Angrboda realizes that, against all odds, she has found a group where she doesn't mind not being a loner. Of course, sometimes it's nice to have some time to herself, but she doesn't need to be alone anymore.
