Ryan's P.O.V
I stepped onto the packlands, feeling rejuvenated.
The pack cheered as I smiled.
"We're a pack guys!", I yelled.
Howls rang out and I howled with them, my wolf puffing her chest in pride.
"There are a few things left for everyone. We must set the pack borders, swear in the Beta, Gamma, Delta, and then the rest of you! We're doing it in 3 hours, when the sun sinks behind the trees and the moon rises into the sky!", I screamed.
Yells of encouragement reached my ears.
"Let's prepare. I need a table with a large wine glass on it. I'll explain that later. Get a silver knife also.
I need a few gallon buckets filled with sand. I will also explain that later. Finally, prepare a feast.
Tonight, we celebrate!", I yelled.
The pack dispersed and I went to take a shower.
...
I stood at the front of the HellHounds as they stopped talking.
"Tonight, we make it all official in the blood.
First, I will tie us together. I need each pack member to come up here, cut open their palm with the silver knife, and let a few drops of blood drip into this glass.
We each will take a sip, gross, I know. This will bind us together and give us the mindlink.", I said.
I cut my palm first, letting some blood drip. Everybody lined up and cut open their palm, their blood mixing with my own.
The last person in line took the second sip after me.
I felt their bond click into my head and their eyes widened as they felt it.
Soon, all 150 bonds were in place.
I could cry from relief.
"Dominic, Dina, and Grayson. Please come up here.", I said.

They came up here and I smiled at them.
"First, the Beta. Dominic Hale, do you swear on your life to do your duties as Beta, lay down your life for your Alpha, and lay down your life for your pack?", I questioned.
"I do.", Dominic replied.
"As our blood mixes and we drink, the Moon Goddess may bless you."
We both took a sip and he grimaced slightly.
"The Gamma. Dina Walsh, do you swear on your life to do your duties as Gamma, lay down your life for your Alpha, and lay down your life for your pack?", I questioned.
"I do.", Dina said.
"As our blood mixes and we drink, the Moon Goddess may bless you."
We drank.
"The Delta. Grayson Bright, do you swear on your life to do your duties as Delta, lay down your life for your Alpha, and lay down your life for your pack?", I questioned again.
"I do.", Grayson replied.
"As our blood mixes and we drink, the Moon Goddess may bless you."
We drank, the cup now completely empty.
I shook hands with my Beta, Delta, and Gamma before addressing my pack.
"To set the packland boundaries, I am going to cut my hands and arms and let my blood drip into the sand.
I must spread this sand on the line. I have to do this with the help of no wolf or person.
But, they never said anything about a four wheeler.
Beta Dominic, please get the four wheeler out of the shed. Make sure it is full of gas.", I said.
"Yes Alpha.", he replied before taking off.
I cut my palms open amd ran the silver knife across my wrists. I allowed the blood to drop freely into each bucket.

My vision doubled and I got dizzy. Blood loss was getting to me.
But this is something that I have to do.
For the HellHounds.
The four wheeler lights flooded over us. I loaded the buckets of bloody dirt onto the four wheeler and drove to the pack border, my pack following me.
Grabbing the rope I had laid on the vehicle earlier, I stumbled off of the four wheeler.
"I just finished closing the wounds, Ryan.", Blake informed me.
I thanked her, closing our link.
I stabbed a hole into the bottom of the buckets and set them down on the bottom so it wouldn't leak out.
I tied the rope to the handle of the bucket and then tied the other end of the rope to the four wheeler.
I climbed on and drove off at a steady pace, the pack jogging next to me.
I looked back and noticed the last bit of sand leak out.
I did the process multiple times and I felt better at the end.
The pack cheered as our pack scent flooded our senses.
A forest fire is what it smelled like.
The pack hugged one another and we headed inside, ready to eat.
We dug in like we hadn't eaten in years, cleaning up after ourselves and then heading to bed.
I think I fell into a coma.

The Ancient One
The Alteric Empire was vast and powerful. Their borders reached to all coasts of the continent, and their banner swayed in the wind of every town. Their knowledge on magic was second to none, and their firm grasp of combat trained highly skilled warriors. Their enemies trembled at their approach, and their friends feasted their arrival. The Orcs, and the Dwarves, were conquered, and given equal rights as their Human Overlords. For thousands of years they reigned supreme, and peace and prosperity was abundant throughout the continent. The arrival of the Elves shattered that. Led by their so called "Great One", they invaded the empire. Elves fell in droves, hundreds, then thousands, then hundreds of thousands, but the empire lost ground.

There are only elves, orcs, and dwarves, and humans have been forgotten by most. Hundreds of thousands of years later, a young elf will stumble across an ancient secret, and the Elven Empire will shake in it foundations. For the Ancient Being awakes, and he brings doom.

Calf the Furless (First Edition)
Calf, the heir presumptive has fallen short once again. As a half-being his competition has always stood heads and shoulders above his physical capabilities but this time, more is at play in keeping him down than the fetters of human ability. "THEY" have interfered and as a consequence, Calf is thrown into a Rites the likes of which only the annals and a few of the long-lived have seen. Will he prevail, or will his story end before it even begins. PROLOGUE: The rite of passage. Every creature known and yet to be known by man undergoes its own challenges. These separate the chaff from the worthy crop, whittling down the challengers for every progressive leg of the journey we call life. Be it formalized and observed, or unwittingly followed in the execution of daily life, every form of it is ritualized. That ritual is what we call the rites, the passage being the continuation of life itself, for even when metaphorical, a death is certain in choice and accommodations should one fail to meet its expectations. ⯁⯁⯁ At the top of any group stands a king, set apart from all by qualification, ranging from singular to multivariate by the complexity of each group. To those of the central forests of Greater Liminos, better known as Taurreland, strength is king. Though the land abounds with creatures great and small, boasting intellect, arcane skills and artisanal prowess, strength stands above all of them, second to none. 'Strength will prevail over all' stands as their motto, and to that end, the Rites of a King require triumph over forces from all disciplines. ⯁⯁⯁ Day 300,Year seventeen,Future calendar of the Taurs... Such a rites would occur on that day, and its events would be the first in a sequence of challenges to the status quo. A single answer would emerge to satisfy all the questions that had been asked of a certain Prince for the past 8 years, but as a consequence, that answer would put to question all that was tradition, and the weight of hereditary strength.
