At one time, there had only been four groups: Tanglewood, The Typhoon, The Ascendants, and Snowbound. Then newer, smaller groups started to pop up and interact with the much bigger groups and eventually started to become large enough to gain attention. The Pitt and Sunhaven were two groups that gained a large following, the latter of which allied themselves with Snowbound. The Pitt, on the other hand, quickly became enemies due to taking in Stryker and, of course, taking over Snowbound. But luckily for Runicflare, Atbash wasn't wary of strangers near their territory.

"Hey there." The one-eyed she-cat greeted as she approached the other leader, dipping her head. "I'm Atbash Cipher, the leader here." She introduced herself quickly, deciding to sit down once Runicflare mentioned that she was were to talk about a possible alliance. This slightly concerned the Hailcaller, considering the last time they allied with a smaller group, they just... stopped interacting. "Who are your current allies, and what can you offer us?" Atbash asked next, remembering the questions Bastilleprisoner had asked her when she visited The Ascendants. Although Recondite Realm, as Runicflare called them, was a small group, Atbash supposed she could give them a chance. She would probably talk to Snowbound about the decision, just like she had done with Sunhaven.
