As Meesei numbed her own pain, she gave the others a smile. "It is indeed an honor, though he seemed pleased with the rest of you as well. Clavicus Vile, the Prince who this Orc served, is a powerful being, and Hircine said you all have a destiny in the coming war against him. That will come later, however. For now, I think it is appropriate to celebrate our victory here, and it is indeed [i]our[/i] victory. There is no way I could have accomplished this alone; you all risked everything for this, and you all deserve the praise."

Ahnasha couldn't help but to smile. To be praised by her Alpha always gave her a warm feeling, but this was a bit different. According to Meesei, her lord Hircine himself had given his praise to them. Looking at Meesei, she still held some fear about her condition, but Hircine had erased most of her worries. After hall, why would he give Meesei the title of his Champion if he thought she was going to die from her wounds? Although she was content to remain exactly where she was, her stomach showed that it had other plans when it gave an audible rumble. Reluctantly, she stood up and stretched her muscles, though she did not end up going far from him. Between the hunters' supplies, and the hunters themselves, there was plenty to eat in the chamber they were in. She sat down by the fire, still on the blanket with Fendros, and grabbed some of the meat Janius had cut up the night before. As always, she left it uncooked and went straight to eating, not really even caring about what type of meat it was. Glancing down, she saw that much of the fur on her torso was still caked in dried blood, but luckily, the pool of water on the other side of the room would be helpful in solving that issue.
