@Ryker was the first to arrive was one that she didn't know. She had seen him fighting for them at the challenge but didn't know anything about him. Her gaze landed hard on him as she waited for him to say something or do something that gave her some idea as to why he was here. Her attention was stolen from him when @Beelzebub arrived and greet her. Amara tilted her face into the greeting slightly, about all that was able to be given from her in response. Her gaze flickers over @Charax for a moment. The lioness would prove to be useful she hoped and in time, she would learn how to be part of the pride as Bee and her sisters had. @Mithros arrived and settled near Bee but Amara watched his gaze toward Charax closely. @Apollinaire seemed to be interested in the lioness as well, well that could get messy if they both indeed wished for the same lioness. Amara wasn't ready for that level of drama within her own pride. The ever on edge @Oleander arrived and set his gaze on Amara. She flicked her own over him. She never really understood this one or Verm's ability to keep him in such check but she also wouldn't question it. It was unlike Verm to take in a stray so there must be some connection. @Baphomè's arrival earn a heavy look as she sized him up. He had hidden who he was and it set Amara on edge. She had never come across a Dieudonne that didn't announce it within moments of meeting them. She needed to make sure that Cassine was aware of this and the male's saving grace was that he jumped into action when it was required of him. @Lycaonia hadn't been at the challenge but she arrived her, Amara didn't take her as a fighter but it would have been nice to have the show of support. @Gauthier arrives as well and Amara is pleased to see him among the group. @Xerxes arrived and she gave him a nod as he settled in. The noble seemed to be getting settled in, at least the best that he could. @Ruth arrived and Amara watched the youth for a moment before her focus moved to @Cassine as she settled next to her. Amara was glad that she was here but there was also an unspoken weight that weighed on her. She wasn't made to be a leader. She wasn't looking to lead a pride and the family and it seemed that she was doing both more and more. She would have to have Cassine step up soon or the younger lioness would risk losing her postion in the family. @Louve curled up with Cassine and Amara looked at her for a moment with a touch of a smile. She had done well in her fight once again. Her gaze lifts to find a greeting from @Ursula which she returns. @Andromache falls in after her sister and Amara takes a long look at the dark sister. Of the four sisters, she saw the dark shadow the least. This might be a good thing with something she was looking to have planned out. The last sister, @Echo, arrived and Amara looked over her wounded form with annoyance. She didn't enjoy having her members beaten up for no reason and the attack against her had been just that. @Narcissa takes her focus away and her gaze becomes her normal guarded and hard look. She had seen her with Saga, watched as the pair got comfy as she got ready to battle for the home that Narcissa had made here with her family. Her younger cubs as well as her older ones were all under Amara's protection and the words of the lioness when she joined had little meaning to Amara now. Things would need to change. Her daughters come in and settle with Cassine and it seemed that they were the last to come. Amara looked around and started to make notes of who wasn't there. The biggest one missing was Verm. Had he grown so cocky that he would not answer when she called? Seems she would need to knock him off his high horse. When she called, he answered. Simple as that. She rolled her shoulders some in an effort to settle herself into things and pushed aside the pain that rolled through her sharply. She wasted no time in small talk. Let it be known now that this pride is ruled by me. It will be defended to the last member. She took a look around to make sure it was clear that they were expected to up hold this. If you are unwilling to do so, leave. Her words were stern but not harsh. The Oasis is an enemy now. Twice they have come against us and twice they have lost. She would like that record to keep up. An old enemy we hope was rotting away is back. Zoticus has taken over the forest. The Hollows is an ally against him, don't attack their members unless they aren't able to keep their end of things and feel free to claim against them if you wish. That was where things stood with Roan at the moment. The Cove is now under Sigrún rule as well. Both the Cove and the Lagoon are enemy prides as well. Stacking them up quickly and she could care less. The Sigrún have an enemy of their own, the Rike. If anyone is familiar with the family, we will talk after. The Sigrún drown their young in the ocean to please their god. Amara laid the information out there for all those gathered to hear, they would be able to take what they would like from it but Amara knew were she stood. Charax is our lead scout now and I plan to send her out to gather more information as needed. Currently there were only two prides that she hadn't touched on and Amara would need more time to figure those out. This pride isn't meant to pad soft souls, if you come across a strong lion or lioness who seems like they understand loyalty and are willing to work in the pride. Bring them here. We will need the numbers for the raids against these prides. Ranks are open to be fought for if you believe you can hold it better. Amara took care to look at each member gathered. She was building herself an army now, even if they weren't aware of it just yet. As long as you remain loyal, you will have the support of this pride. Forget that loyalty and the full force of the pride would be brought down upon that traitor. She let her words hang. She had given them a lot to process and doubted that it would all just be accepted. She waited to see who might have something to say about what she shared. |
