Ebonfeather
feel it?
... the unnatural ambiance
There's this stillness within these woods. A permanent mist seems to linger, caressing the evergreen trees like amorphous claws reaching for a victim. Few entities dare break the haunting tranquility; not a bird, nor a cricket or frog, not even the lone owl who's head remains a swivel. There was no reason to break the calm, shatter the lull. Even the wind appeared to respect the unspoken rule, breathing through the undergrowth with a slow and feather-light touch. Though, even that caused the fog to twist and swirl in a mesmerizing dance. Perhaps this was simply a place of peace and contemplation… or maybe there's something darker manipulating this place and obscuring its genuine purpose. In every place such as this, there are almost always rumors and whispers; tall tales that could hold truth. Some anomalous being that resides within the wildwood, stalking through the thicket and venturing wherever it pleases perhaps? More often than not, it's a danger to weary and ignorant travelers. Those who are local will preach cryptic warnings to those entering where they are unfamiliar. It's wise to abide by those rules, yes? After all, if you hear your name when you're alone in the woods… no you don't.
Ethics
... the territory oversight
There are many stories revolving are dark entities and creatures of ill intention, especially in places where eyes cannot effectively watch and observe. Those stories are generally true, or at least hold an ounce of truth to them. The haunting warnings and cryptic messages surrounding the clan of the Ebonfeather wolves is no different. The ruling family line, the Ó Broins, have been guarding and guiding these thick evergreen forests for as long as any wolf can remember. They are the chosen ones, not by birthright but by something far more spiritual and perhaps even supernatural. It is said that only the family of the Ravenborn can tame and subdue the creature lurking deep within Ebonfeather's lands. Now that, they will not confirm nor deny, considering it has been a wonderful way to keep potential raids from other packs at bay. They know there is truth to the story of the dark omen, why tempt fate and lose? After all, it doesn't seem to die...
