If this were a lion's pride, Skuld would be queen.
In terms of raw skill and polished knowledge, no one beats Skuld. On the other side of pack life, Skuld keeps intact her reign: she has mothered countless pups and adopted others. As an accomplished Hunter, she knows no obstacles; as a brood-mother, she is perfectly tender and well-experienced.
At almost six years old, she has lived quite the full life, and plans to work her retirement training pups as a Mentor. Fitting end for such a respected wolf.
