𐕣Sinners or Saints𐕣

You stand at the foot of a long staircase of an ominous castle. Displayed above you is a massive pentagram, carved into the stone workings of this large structure. When you look around, you find that you are surrounded by two long corridors, the pillars spanning the height of the tower itself. Behind you is the long stone path you just trekked; a large intricately designed gate; and a dark, eerie forest. The fog that lingers beneath your paws travels slowly across the landscape. You could swear it was somehow alive by the way you could feel a presence flowing within the mist. But of course that could never be... right?

You ascend the stairs, startled when the towering doors come to life, allowing you to step through the threshold. Once inside, you are surprised to see the inside so full of life. Everywhere you look there are wolves clothed in silks, leather, or armor strolling from room to room. The wolves are many different shapes and sizes as well, some towering over you! It's a little intimidating... You wander out into a big open common area with a long, weaving staircase that spans miles above you, so high you can barely make out the ceiling.

You are directed to another large double door and head inside to find what looks like a council room... or a throne room? Maybe both. A massive gray and black female sits atop what looks like a long wooden thrown. She's adorned in jewelry unlike anyone else here. Behind her is a large mural of a white wolf, carved and painted into the stone workings. You wonder who this white wolf might be to them... the first ruler? Their god maybe?

You are told to bow before the Saintess and state your business from a large male wolf with the most interesting coat pattern and two different color wings. You bow and explain that you are just passing through and wanted to properly introduce yourself. The female on the throne, who you gather is the Saintess, nods her head, giving you the permission to do so. Once you do, The Saintess rises from her chair and introduces herself as Blaire Embry, the ruler of this territory. When she stands to her full height, it catches you off guard as to just how tall she actually is. She is easily a good foot and a half taller than a regular sized wolf...The female's presence feels warm and inviting, friendly even, yet intimidating and overpowering. However, as she gets closer, you suddenly realize that she is blind.

Before you can ask about it, Blaire invites you on a tour with her. A tour given by the ruler? Her voice is inviting, yet... demanding in some strange way. It's like your body can't decide if she is friend or foe. You accept and follow. The strange looking male from before and another dark coated female with black and white leg wraps accompany you, probably as security for the Saintess. Even so, something about the Saintess's behavior puts you at ease; regardless of your earlier mixed emotions; and you ambitiously follow behind.

Enjoy your tour of the territory Newcomer. But be wary of who you befriend... Not everyone here is a Saint...

⛧Alliances⛧

Order Of The Damned

Order of the Damned have been allies with this territory since the first ever Alpha, Elijah, made this land his own. The ally pack has some... questionable practices, but they've been nothing but friendly to the territory. There's even been members who've joined the Order of the Damned, that feel like they'd be more at home there. Because this territory doesn't completely accept these customs, they allow anyone who wants to join the Order of the Damned, to do so peacefully.

Hybrid Hallows

Their alliance began with one wolf, Blaire Embry. Blaire was just a regular wolf when she was picked up by H.E.L a few years after the mass break out. It took them years to rebuild, but they managed to save a few blood vials and DNA from the rubble. To them, Blaire was known as Subject 959 or Patient Zero. They injected a Hybrid's blood in her to test if they could create their own hybrids. This was done with a few other wolves but Blaire was the main focus. They wanted them to be just as powerful, grow just as large as a regular hybrid. Her and a few others were put through painful procedures for 2 years, but were eventually discarded; labeled as a failure and left to die.

Blaire and the others tried to survive out in the wild but it's like they couldn't figure out how to anymore. Because of this, some of the others ended up dying. Eventually, only Blaire and another male wolf named Purge were left. They were on their last leg when they were found by a large white female. She had a larger black male wolf accompanying her. These two wolves were massive, the female was easily approaching 6 feet and the male was even taller. Blaire and Purge were a good foot taller than regular wolves now, but these two...

They took them in and brought them back to health. The white female introduced herself as Sigyn. They allowed Blaire and Purge to stay in their pack but quickly realized that they needed to have their own territory, away from others, because they grew aggressive and kept trying to escape. The only one they weren't aggressive with was Sigyn. So she was the one to help them find their own home. Unbeknownst to Sigyn or Blaire, they weren't aggressive with her because the blood that was used on them was Sigyn's blood.

They ended up finding an abandon castle. For saving them and giving them purpose, Sigyn became their deity. And thus, Nowhere Nevermore was born.
