The atmosphere around the land of Tokotna was unsettling, for many they had thought that it was just that time of winter where everything had dulled down as it was into the later weeks which was the roughest part, few had learnt the news of a wolf pack who was commonly seen wondering the territory of Lake Aok Imiq had their alpha male pass away unexpectedly over the freezing night that occured roughly a couple weeks ago, the pack was rumoured to be sacred and with their leader gone so suddenly without completing his duties that would now all be handed over to the alpha female would leave them with a spirit that would harrass the lands until he has found peace with himself, it was up to Seon and his handler to settle down the wolf's soul before it wrecked havoc into those who were in its path. The lilac tokota would admit that he was a bit nervous about the idea but it was just something that needed to be done and his handler Wylde was going to assist him in any way possible, as Seon would need some reassurance as he was known for trying to hobble on his three legs away from situations that might go wrong. Destroying the wolf's restless soul seemed unfair to him as well as the rest of the pack who were reported to be slightly struggling but nevertheless still roaming around Lake Aok Imiq almost appearing to be a bit lost, with the duo trying to be as brave as they could be they were roaming around the edge of the frozen lake in search of the irritated spirit as the wind blew fiercely around the area. Both Seon and Wylde were unsure how exactly they planned to approach the restless wolf that was causing havoc around them, they knew they'd have to pacify him while trying to communicate him instead of the potentially easier method for some. Despite the land being quite easy to scan over they had no sightings of the spirit that roamed around bringing terror with every footstep he'd take on the crunchy snow, as they were taking longer and longer to find the alpha wolf, Seon was becoming more nervous and needed some reassuring pats from his handler who was keeping an eye out on the west side of the lilac bobtail who was starting be more alert quickly looking behind and in all directions as they were unsure if the unsettled spirit was going to be agressive towards the duo or not.

Lurking paw prints were heading their way behind a small dip which hid what sounded like it was another tokota was approaching Wylde and Seon, they watch intensely to see if their guess was correct or not then trying to interrogate if they had spotted the restless wolf spirit the wondered around the Lake Oak Imiq area. They waited and the two got the result that they didn't want but also did want as they were greeted by a blue aura surrounding an almost transparent wolf that matched the same colour as a distinctive green shined from its eyes, this was the alpha male that Seon was going to attempt to put at ease. The wolf's mouth was wide open and snarling attempting to intimidate the two but before the lilac could hobble off on his three legs Wylde made sure he would rise up to the challenge and help Lake Oak Imiq to become the peaceful and serene place it once was as the elders had selected the two to deal with the issue to be able to prove Seon's worth to Tokotna, it was surely going to be a long trek home all for nothing if all the lilac did was shy away and hobble from the somewhat scary situation like he would do usually. Not backing down they watched the wolf's spirit as he waited for the two to flee away, both could see the pain that was hidden within the deep emerald eyes that still managed to keep their spark in them. They stood their ground waiting to see what would happen and to their surprise, the wolf backed down and starting showing that it was intrigued by them now as most would run away at such a sight, Seon felt a rush of relief flow through him as the wolf stopped showing any signs of aggressiveness towards him and Wylde, now they just needed to find out what would let the spirit rest peacefully with the Tokotna gods where watching down on his pack. They could tell he put up a strong guard which was a good quality for an alpha male, his sense of being protective is what made the duo click to their issue that was their mission to now complete if they wanted to bring the relaxed atmosphere around the lake, the wolf spirit was unable to find his pack making it impossible for him to rest easy without getting a final glimpse of them before he would leave completely to rest, with them to support the wolf they tried to display to him that they were there to help him out and for him to follow after the tokota in a search. It didn't take too long for the spirit to realise that Wylde and Seon were there to make sure he finds his pack just for one last time as he was aware that he was still not the wolf he once was, agreeing to follow after the dup they all chose to scan around curious of who was the last to have seen the alpha female and her pups that roamed around the lake area.

It had seemed like many hours have passed since their encounter with the restless spirit who they had no befriended and were tracking down his pack to reassure him that they were all safe and sound, in the late winter months the group of wolves had a tendency to struggle as there were many TCA members who would come down to provide extra food for their survival as they had competition despite being a legendary pack, Seon had lost all of his nerves as he was busy concentrating on searching for any scent of tracks that would lead him and the other two males to who they were looking for. The hardest part for the lilac was well and truly over as it didn't take long for the wolf soul to stop his intimidating stance to a more relaxed state knowing he'd be able to trust Seon and Wylde who constantly were reassuring him they would find his mate and his pups as they trek throughout the snowy area, the lake was isolated today as not even the bears were lurking about which the bobtail created a theory that it was due to Lake Aok Iniq being completely frozen around this time of the year. All of the steps they took seemed worthwhile as they heard the sound of playful pups roughing up each other all in the name of fun as their mother watched on by herself. Instantly the wolf's green eyes had lost most of their pained sadness but now had a different kind of sad just wishing he was able to be along with his alpha female once more watching over the pups, the moment was tearjerking as Seon almost couldn't watch such a bittersweet sight. Making his final goodbye the wolf turned to Seon and Wylde thanking them both for guiding him to his pack where he could now finally rest with ease, with a large gust of wind they saw the aura that was emitting off the wolf was being swept away slowly up into the chilling air and up for him to ascend up into the skies to be able to watch his pups and mate since he now knew where they were. The day was exhausting physically as well as emotionally for both the tokota and his handler, it had been a big rollercoaster of nerves and all these other emotions that they couldn't quite explain as they had witnessed such a sacred moment for this area, all they could do now was to trek back to the elders and report to them of what had just occurred in front of their eyes while replaying those moments in their heads while there was nothing more to do after such event.
