Meesei shook her head. "I am already Hircine's Champion. It is the highest rank our lord can bestow, above the alpha of any pack or clan. I do intend to stay here for quite a while and will aid in leadership decisions for that duration, but my responsibilities may call me away eventually. This clan needs leaders who will remain with it, and who can handle the challenges, both large and small, that it faces. For the new lieutenant, I will trust your judgment on who would be the best replacement. I agree that it should be one of Harriet's alphas who takes her position. It will show that we bear no ill will towards those those in her packs."

Though they did not have time for extended interviews, Meesei did have an idea in mind for who would be the best candidate for filling Jerrick's position. Though, it would likely be after the full moons that she would make that decision. "As for choosing the alpha of the clan, I respect your decision, Darahil, so the choice falls between Vera and Oswall. We do not have much time at the moment, and this is not something which should be rushed, so I will speak to you both privately when we have the time. Likely, it will be after the full moons. I should allow you all to get back to your duties, but there is just one final matter, for Oswall specifically. It is in regards to Caleb's punishment. He was manipulated by an agent of Vile into believing you were the traitor, but that does not mean he can go unpunished. He did not intend to betray the clan, but what he did was reckless. Considering his relation to Jerrick and Vera, I doubt the clan would be accepting of much leniency normally. However, as the victim of his crime, they will accept any punishment you give him."
