But this owl wasn’t on the hunt for prey; no, he was on the hunt for Sala, the Tyrantee that had been haunting the council’s mind for a long while. Reisenthel had been on the watch for a while now, serving as a recon force, mainly for his own endeavours rather than for the council, though he did sometimes share information with them. However, at the moment the trail ran cold, as the evidenced pointed to nowhere; or rather, there was no evidence to be able to point to anything.
The owl gently glided down, perching himself on an empty branch.
“Damn it..”
Surveying the area for a while, he sighed, fluffing his wings and body.
How am I ever going to find that snake?

The courtyard was the most lively of areas in Walsh, the effigy of Sevetea was perhaps a little oversized this time but that'd only make it's burning on the walls of the keep a brighter sight. The burning of shackles, made of Reeds- to commemorate the actual mass emancipation that followed- was underway and that fire- which would be carried by a torch to the Effigy of Sevetea- was burning well. The Council it's self was leaving the government building- odd some might think but mostly you as you had just been in there and it's your role to protect them. They where leaving by bridge towards the Keep- it was a notable set up. The old Keep, from which the Tyrantess had lorded- was now just a military fort- with the council meeting nearby. They'd be making their way to the keep so as to give a speech before the torch lit the effigy aflame. Namely such speech would be given by the Chairman. You where familiar with them as expected of your role; the Chairman was a mouse- he had been the slave of the Court Steward under Sevetea's reign. From which he had an understanding of economics. Marconii was his name. The rest of the council was similar except that a few of it's other members had actually fought in the revolt- Marconii did play a role by locking certain rooms in the Keep (having been the keeper of his master's keys)- this had hindered the ability of the loyalist from escaping and likely aided Samuel's triumph. There was a red bird, who had been Samuel's eyes- a scout of sorts- prior to the revolt and during it's assault on the keep. Her name was unimaginably Red. Red was perhaps the most talkative but also unfocused members of the council. There was of course 4 others but they didn't really spark much to mind at this time. Howard- was a scribe for the council- mostly coming to mind because he was chasing after some scroll- he fumbled like that often. The other four where the ones who had more say but also most - ambiguity- a bit mysterious. They didn't address the people as often as Marconii or Red but worked together to have a heavy voice.

The Otter lowered his head as he entered a quiter portion of the streets. As he moved towards a small door- big enough for a mouse alone- but that door was part of a larger structure- one of those buildings with a shutter door large for other animals to enter- he pulled his hooded cloak up around the package and held the fabric of the cloak in place with right paw- pressing the package against him with the elbow of his left which he raised and then as best he could manage knock on the door though it came more as a hammering sound which caused him to moved back and glance left towards some of the merriment.
A voice from inside returned; "What is it? Someone shackled?"
The otter pattered closer; "Do you have any reeds?"
There was a pause
The Otter continued; "Reeds to bind?"
There was a pause before the shutters began to raise- the establishment was a workshop of sorts; the larger room next to the dwelling a place for armoring, fittings, and the servicing of larger mammals. It was not at all an alien sight to you. But the door opened only a little as the otter put the package down and began to push it under the shutters.....

The South side of Walsh
Blackeye and Stripeback
Blackeye and Stripeback were patrolling on the south side of Walsh, when they came upon a group of scorpions. Blackeye, the senior of the two said,"Who goes there? I know you're scorpions of some sort. My nose tells me as much. Stripeback, howl the warning signal off to Razorclaw." Stripeback nodded, and let out a short, sharp howl.
Razorclaw
Razorclaw heard Stripeback's alert signal. He sent back a howl of acknowledgment. He would be ready to call in the rest of the pack if it was an attack.

The lead scorpion steps out from the group and signals them to step back, “We come from southern deserts, we were forced out of our lands when a great drought struck, many of our tribespeople are dead”

Blackeye looked at them. He said,"What are your names? I've similar tales of tragedy before. I'm Blackeye, of Westhaven Pack. Stripeback, signal that they're probably friendly." Stripeback said,"Yes sir." Stripeback let out a long, low howl.
Razorclaw
Razorclaw howled back that he understood. He said to the two remaining warriors from his pack, Steeljaw and Ironfang,"I don't believe we're needed, but you tow are to go relieve Rippersnapper and Sawtooth." Steeljaw and Ironfang said,"Yes sir.", and moved out.

Reisenthel thought for a bit. He couldn't be too overbearing and just pry into the lives of civilians, but this did seem a tad suspicious; after all, the burning of the shackles was already going through. He decided to spy a bit, and maybe find out more about the package.
The Owl glided silently under the cover of the trees' shadows, perching inconspicuously on a branch near the strange structure. He watched the Otter and the door carefully, playing out all the possible scenarios in his head.

NewLakotah wrote:Raolin Blackclaw
Outsid of town
Raolin was as relaxed as you could possibly be, lounging high, high in a tall oak tree, towering over the distant town. He preferred it this way. Him away from the town. He didn’t dislike the town. More, he actually liked it, and the townsfolk in it. That being said, this was where home was.
Raolin was from the Blackclaw family, though it would be better described as the Blackclaw clan. It was a range of roving wild squirrels. They had been nomadic for as long as anyone could remember, and for as long as the stories would go back. They had separated and forsaken civilized life, even though other squirrels readily joined in with other woodland creatures to help build and create a new basis of civilization. These members saw this is as a forsaking of their own kind. A sacrifice of almost sacrilegious proportions. Thus the few families of squirrels separated themselves and remained in their state of semi-nomadic wandering. An that they remained until that fateful nights all those moons ago. Raolin could barely remember it really, when the snakes had attacked. He was but a child at that time. However a few haunting memories remained with him to this day, haunting him when he would close his eyes to sleep. The screams of his friends and families, his mother shaking him awake and telling him to run. He did run and managed to escape, hiding in the bushes as the rest of his clan either ran away or were killed, watching from the bushes as the snakes slithered around and eventually far away. He had continued to wait, not moving. Too scared to venture out himself. Eventually he did muster the courage to venture out. He wandered aimlessly, looking for any signs of his family or the rest of the clan. Raolin eventually stumble into a town and was welcomed and taken care of by the townsfolk. He grew up strong and his wildness and aptitude with a bow made he well liked as a guard and warrior, someone who could protect the town when any predators or any sort of enemies showed up. However, he enjoyed remaining outside of the town. Often going alone on his own wanderings and adventures. Through this he had earned his fair share of scars and fought in his fair share of battles.
The sound from the town awoke him from his half-asleep dreams. He turned his eye down to see the the bustle around the town. He had almost forgotten. This was their third annual celebration of the liberation of the town from the snakes. He stirred slightly now, rising up and yawning a bit. He then quickly scurried down. Tonight was as good of a night as any to rejoin the town, their would be the festivities and certainly a good amount of food and drink to be had. Raolin had been out on one of his many wanderers over the past 3 days, but had remained relatively close. He scurried quickly down the side of the tree and walked quickly back into town. He looked around at the various celebratory events taking place. He soon drifted into the crowd and began to join in on the celebration.
Harbertia wrote:"Freedom!" Someone shouted nearby as such was followed by a tremendous ARrroo! and laughter. "oh careful dear," came a small voice, "you've had too much of the wolf's berries." which was followed by a raspy retorc by a woman, "I'm fine Harold! It's just one!" Which was followed to further laughter from the alley. "Another berry," said a voice stronger then the rest, "to Samuel!"another voice a bit quizy, "Nay the Haveners *hic*" The small voice from before spoke up a little, "How about to them all?" The woman, a mouse like Harold interjected, "Except the owls." "EXCEPT THE OWLS!" They shouted together as berries in a basket where taken by the wolf to those around him. It was certainly a lively ally.

"Show us your feathers again Azu! Come on! Do it for Liberation Day!" Miazma, a common turkey, yelled drunkenly. The two friends were in a bar celebrating Liberation Day, the bar was packed and full of different animals. Everyone, including Azu was quite drunk from sparkly berry drink.
"You know I hate doing that Miaz!" Azu paused, "Fine, for Liberation Day you cluck." With a showy swish of his tail he opened it up so all could see his grandeur. Those not black-out drunk Ooooed and Ahhed. He promptly closed his tail and laughed. "Miaz buy another round for these drunken beasts."
"You're the most wasted of them all!" laughed Miazma. "This round is on me! For Liberation Day!"
"For Liberation Day!" the crowd shouted in unison.
