[So, Moro's calmed down significantly since the arrival of the Kin'Corans. There was a bit of tension at first, with the arrival of new Lucetians, but she soon recognized their arrival pattern and left them be.

As their arrivals slowed down, Moro began to interact again. Namely, by dragging fallen wood from deep in the forest and leaving it by the village edge - something that she's done before. She's also bringing out branches of trees that have acorns and seeds still growing on them - hint hint, so to speak. She's got several other small things, such as various wild fruits and a few plants she recognized as edible thanks to San's diet before.

Moro herself will be approachable, not snarling or growling at all, and almost (aaaalmost) looking apologetic for her extreme behavior. Almost.]

<sub>[Kirk missed the giant wolf from before, so instead of being frightened he's... intrigued. At least she wasn't coming after him like that giant, toothy thing on that frozen planet. Let's not repeat that again, please, ever. Seriously.

And, what the hey, there's already talking lions and ponies here. So a gigantic wolf is almost mundane as compared to that when you look at it. He just thinks he needs to stop being surprised, or he's going to get whiplash soon enough.

So, have a Kirk looking interestedly at your growing stash there.]</sub>

Last I checked, wolves are carnivores, but then you don't look like a wolf from my planet so I guess that's assuming a lot, right?

[tsuntrader]

[Wood. Lots and lots of wood, branches, you name it.

Moro's helping them out again. He goes over to one of the branches full of acorns and pulls off just one to looks it over for a moment before looking over at Moro. Hi Moro.]

[biteoffherhead]

Human meat is greasy and repulsive.

[She'll leave it at that!]

[biteoffherhead]

[Hey, Silver, s'up.]

Those are to be planted.

[tsuntrader]

[Not much, man. What's up with you, Moro? How's it goin?]

Where?

[biteoffherhead]

[Pretty good, pretty good. Feelin' pretty awesome after showing off the fact that we're the alpha bitch here, got the ego nice and re-inflated, s'all good.]

Where it will grow. I don't know, that was the job for the apes!

[tsuntrader]

[Thanks, Moro. You're a huge help.] Right. [He'll pocket it for later. surely someone knows about planting trees.]

[universal_charm]

I am going to take that as you won't eat me.

_{[And yeah, he's a bit surprise she can talk, but once you've seen a talking lion cub, the whole effect is somewhat muted.]}

[biteoffherhead]

And since there are none, I pass the job to you humans.

[Doing her usual walk in the woods, Saori happens to spot Moro dragging wood towards the village.]

Ah, hello Moro.

[biteoffherhead]

I will. If you harm this forest, I will not hesitate to rip you to pieces.

[Action]

[biteoffherhead]

[Her mouth is full, but she nods! Yes hello.]

[Action]

[windandrain]

Allow me to help you.

[A small whirlwind whips up, gathering the wood and carrying it]

I wanted to thank you.

[Action]

[biteoffherhead]

I have done nothing for you.

[That whole moving-you-to-a-safe-place thing was totally not an act of generosity or empathy!]

[Action]

[windandrain]

You have.

[Believe it or not, she's grateful.]

I'd have died or had my soul taken, had you not intervened.

[tsuntrader]

Are your apes really calm enough to plant these things? [Apricorns? They look like apricorns.]

[universal_charm]

_{[Well, okay then. Maybe he took a tiny step back at that.]}

Well, I'll try my best not to.

So, uh, you got a name or should I just call you 'wolf'?

[Xzana had been on the hunt in the woods. She could feel that winter was preparing itself and she needed to do the same. Eating much more than usual. She was just on her way back to the river, still licking away the last of the deer she had caught off her lips when she stumbles on the path of Moro.

The half dragon girl stops short. In utter shock as the creature before her did not give off the same feel as a demon would have. She had never been in the presence of a god before, but could this be one?

All manners she had been told to show to a god fly out of her mind as she's unable to do anything but to stare at Moro. Not even thinking of the fresh blood that is on her rather stained old "new" feather dress.]

[Aang happens to be walking near the edge of the forest when he spots Moro in the process of dragging wood. He looks on quizzically, briefly forgetting how tense their previous meeting had been.]

Moro?

[biteoffherhead]

I am Moro, guardian god of the forests.

[biteoffherhead]

They have less rage than the boars. They are very malicious, but weak.

[Action]

[biteoffherhead]

I wasn't about to let a human have the satisfaction.

[biteoffherhead]

[Moro doesn't notice, at first, dragging along a dead tree that was even longer than she was, tugging the unwieldy thing to the village.]

[biteoffherhead]

[She drops a huge mouthful of dead roots and branches onto the pile!]

What do you want, boy?

[Action]

[windandrain]

It's appreciated all the same. I would have been able to hold them off, but I was too weak from my ritual.

[Moro is incredibly tsundere sometimes isn't she?

Saori, of course, was visible in her spirit form to the wolf. A branchlike arm reaches out and gathers an enormous handful of wood.]

I am glad you showed me the kindness you did. Now that I'm properly anchored and rested I can repay that.
