01[05:55] <+Lumio> 06He was on his land, sitting at the hill top where the waterfall cascaded down the rocks. Lumio often went there to meditate, to try and relax and find himself. It was ever difficult especially with how torn he was feeling over everything. The wind billowed around him, whistling with the dampness of the deafening falls. Yet he simply sat there, fur frazzled in the winds, icy gaze looking over 05{Cut}
01[05:55] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}06 the land he owned, the land he had worked hard for.
01[05:58] <+Lumio> 06The wolven runt was no where near an alpha physically, though since coming to these lands, he had certainly grown in strength and knowledge. But he was a halfbreed, with a very soft heart. It was a wonder he hadn't been collared, let alone killed yet. Lumio knew this, which perhaps drove him to survive and live, to thrive.. And it made him all the more spiritual. Saddened eyes lifted, to 05{Cut}
01[05:58] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}06 focus on the moon above. 01"Rhe... My goddess.. my Mother.. I need your help.."
01[06:01] <+Lumio> 06He always sought her, always prayed to her.. Lumio stared up at the sky as his ears leaned back, the chilled dampness brushing through his fur. 01"My Dageus is gone.. I've prayed to you, for many a night, to bring him to me, to guide me to him.. in the first place. He asked me to be bonded, and brought me a bearskin as proof of his love.."06 Nervous fingers toyed with the ring he wore, 05{Cut}
01[06:01] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}06 which Dageus had made for him. 01"Then.. he disappeared.."
01[06:07] <+Lumio> 06Lumio swallowed back his tears, the cracking of his voice. It certainly wasn't easy. Not to voice everything aloud, his weaknesses and fears. As he took in a deep breath, he again found his resolve. 01"My mate has been gone now, for months.. I know not if he lives.. or has died.. I will not ask you to bring him back to me, because I know your way gives me strength. Whatever it may be... 05{Cut}
01[06:07] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}01 You've given me family in my pack, guiding my new loved ones to me. Each of them, cherished.. and I will provide and care for them. They make me strong. I will protect them, as they are mine.. for as long as they follow me."
01[06:11] <+Lumio> 06The chilled winds again billowed, making his eyes squint against the harsh cold, bits of fur spiking together from the wet. 01"And Epicurus.. It was only through you that I was able to truly see beyond the blindness of my rage.. and I saw a kitten, that was misunderstood, wronged by me.. and could use companionship as I. I will protect him, and keep him mine. He is.. a dear thing, though a 05{Cut}
01[06:11] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}01 bit touched in the head... Thank you, for placing him in my path, and lifting rage's veil so that I could see... so that I did not kill him.."06 Lumio kept his ears low, ashamed. It was perhaps odd to take matters of life and death, of killing, so strongly... But he had a soft heart, and his own deeds could have destroyed him.
01[06:16] <+Lumio> 06Lumio had grown up being told he was 'too touched by Rhe' for his softness.. and thus, he had grown into deeply following her. His Goddess of the Full Moon, She who sheds light in darkness. Lumio's head bowed, 01"I thank you for that.. All of it.. and so my dear Goddess Rhe, I beseech you.. I call upon you for help this night. I seek wisdom and strength.. for there are obstacles in my path, 05{Cut}
01[06:16] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}01 wolven of the old ways.. Wolven strong of claw, strong of power.. While I am hardly so. Please Rhe, give me the will to barrel through this, to guide me, for whatever may come... I was raised wolven, and am half wolven, but all wolven of heart. You have carried me this far.. This runt before you, this halfbreed artisan, I am Lumio... and I acknowledge all you have blessed me with, all you have 05{Cut}
01[06:16] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}01 seen me through to give me strength.."
1[06:21] <+Lumio> 06His bronze kopis was placed in the ground, hands clutching its hilt as his head bowed. 01"I come to you now, humble as I am, and ask for further guidance.. I am your Childe, a Childe of Rhe, my Mother... no matter what my blood says. I... I worry, that the human part of me, will make me weak.. when facing these wolven who seek to destroy all I have, all that I have become.."06 Tears rolled 05{Cut}
01[06:21] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}06 through his damp fur, lips quivering with the cold of the falls. 01"I worry.. that my love, my mate.. is gone, and with him.. my strength to continue through this life.... without.. him... my Dageus."06 Lumio's form wracked with sobs, his blade all but holding him up.
01[06:25] <+Lumio> 0601"You gave wolven their hearts, and gave us our flashing gaze to avoid violence.. Violence cannot be avoided with me as an alpha.. Me.... an alpha... I never.. ever would have thought.. but I digress.. I.. I need your blessing, of mind and will, of body and soul... I seek your aid in what shall come before me. The path is there, and I am as I am... I only wish.. your help for the obstacles 05{Cut}
01[06:25] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}01 along the way, no matter what path I end up taking.."06 The sky flashed with lightning, a mix of heat. Such hot flashes were not unknown, heat lightning, the sky's dance of lights in the dark.

01[06:29] <+Lumio> 06His ears perked, then flattened as the glimmer of light caught his gaze. Lumio blinked twice, concern shifting over his features. 01"Rhe?..."06 Lumio was spiritual by nature.. and not one to ignore signs of nature. Yet, he was also uncertain of how the weather worked, and how metal and the weather got along.
01[06:32] <+Lumio> 06It came out of nowhere, a brilliant white streak from above striking the rock ledge he was upon. Part of it would crumble. An unconscious Lumio with singed fur and his blade would suddenly go flying over the ledge, falling with the waterfall's course. His white form blurred in with the water, hitting hard. A few feet from the waterfall's pouring, Lumio would rise to the water's surface on 05{Cut}
01[06:32] <+Lumio> 05{Continued}06 his back. His chest rose and fell as normal, even with his unconscious form. Lumio would drift through the waters, out cold, yet afloat.
01[06:35] <+Lumio> 06Lumio would eventually waken transformed. His blood would be that of a full wolven, as would his strength. And his spiritual power would have doubled. The runt could only possibly chalk it up to Rhe, a gift.. Her blessing.. (FTB)
