♛ GAEL Ó BROIN

A little over a year had passed since the vulpine first set foot in the sands.  Seeking a new home -- a place among the strong; somewhere he could protect his daughter.  It possessed the strategical advantage; a difficult terrain, a reputation.  In truth, the faerie never considered whether or not he could make a home out of the Pitt -- home was never a place.

Home lived in the bright hazel eyes of his daughter; her laugh and smile.  While her fundamental values failed to line up often with the Pitt's -- her heart terribly 'soft' in the eyes of many, even his own -- he knew she had grown attached.  Perhaps, he had too; growing to posses a desire to protect not only her but this place.

Even so, Gael had never considered the place he now stood -- upon the throne, among skulls and carvings of the previous Ardent's names. Upon accepting Kydobi's initial request to stand beside him, his second, the faerie realized this mortal ambition may fall to him one day.  The inevitable passing of time simply clicked into place sooner than he anticipated.  Very well.

"Pittians!  Gather for a meeting!"

Molten fur and gold eyes -- the vulpine was not Silent.  The strange creature, the previous Ardent was; Gael had bade him farewell with a thoughtful nod and polite wishes for the best.  Seeking purpose with lives as long as theirs came as no small feat and the faerie held no disdain for the other leaving to do such. 

"Silent has left."  The faerie had always preferred a direct approach.  A moment of silence, he regarded the gathered in thought -- they would all feel about this one way or another.

"He has deemed his purpose here complete, and I will be stepping up as Ardent in his stead.  I bare him no ill will for seeking cause elsewhere, though I understand that this may be abrupt.  But consider -- he has ushered in a time of renewal for us and we should carry on strong.  I for one, do not intend to see the torch burn out; that is not who we are."

"On this note -- our summer festival is nearing its end.  Remember to take the bones of your blood hunts to the carving.  You will find Aine hosting it.  Know you may craft whatever you will."

"As for recent news, I also would like to welcome Jormungand ([member=16091]Windowmemer[/member]), [member=16081]BUCKSKIN.[/member] , and [member=3104]drux .[/member] to the Pitt.  Understand you are not considered a Pittian until you prove your worth through the Blooding.  And [member=12555]T. ROUX[/member] -- welcome back.  I expect the same from you as them."

"That is all.  Unless there are any questions."

TL;DR
- Gael is stepping up as Ardent upon Silent's departure
- Welcome to Windowmemer / Jormungand, Buckskin, Drux, and Trygve to the Pitt!  Super excited to have everyone here.
- The summer festival is coming to a close with its last event -- the bone carving.
