Cam was indeed interested. When she was little she'd always loved hearing stories from others, whether history or entertainment it didn't matter to her. She was very good at remembering them too, and could recount most of them.
Something puzzled her though. "If you already know the entire history of your people, wouldn't that make you a scholar as well? What makes them different from being a Seer, besides the position of leadership?"

"Yet another excellent question."
Altair was surprised by the many questions she had. No one had ever asked any of these questions before. He was excited and happy to actually get the chance to tell someone exactly how things were and went.
"You see being a seer... I am directly connected to our Deity." HE could see a little confusion on her face. "I am the only one in the tribe who is able to contact The Maker... No one else in the Tribe is able to talk with him..." He looked up into the sky. "Also... as Seer I know every order and as such I have every ability of that order." He smiled as he chuckled. "I guess you could say, In a way I am a member of every order... but I cant do all the jobs at once... which is why I search for new members to take up the order."

Cam nodded. It made sense to be special to be a Seer. There were many tribes in history that had been destroyed because the more intelligent fox had been taken down by a muscle head with not enough sense to avoid a pile of poop. Being chosen by a deity and given power as well as smarts, it was a good system.
"Would you like to walk with me a little," Cam asked, tilting her head towards the forest. "I am quite interested in your tribe, but maybe we should talk more first, to make sure we mutually feel my joining would be beneficial." She smiled at the covered fox. "I've always found walking preferable to sitting still when holding a conversation."

"Of course."
He nodded his head in acknowledgment and began following her. He was happy to hear she was in fact interested in joining the Tribe. This seemed to be turing out to be a good day for him. It had been a wile since he was this happy and it showed not only on his face but his tail as well... considering it was wagging a lot more then it normally did.
"You are as smart as you are beautiful... if you don't mind me saying that..." he blushed slightly at the fact he just said that. "We should be sure it is what you truly want and beneficial to both you and I..." He walked next to her as they made there way through the trees. "I also enjoy a good walk wile I hold a conversation. A thing we have in common."

((Is it mean that I want to give her a pretty voice and laugh to go with the pretty coat. Total heart breaker, but not really aware of it lol))
Cam's laugh sounded like a wind chime. "I do not mind at all. It is quite flattering of you to say." She couldn't help the small smile at the sight of his wagging tail. For a tribe leader he was probably strong and smart, but right now he only reminded her of a happy kit.
She winded through some of the trees, enjoying the morning forest air for a moment before beginning to talk. "So I think we agree I would be interested in becoming a scholar. Your first," she added, smiling. "As a scholar would I have any responsibilites, besides knowing the history of the tribe and reciting it to young ones?"

Altair looked away as he felt a blush creep across his muzzle. He looked away hopping to hide it just incase his hood didn't. She had a vary nice laugh as well. They walked in silence for a moment him waiting for the blush to go away and when it did he again looked over at her. Catching her eye just as she started talking.
"Yes..." He nodded. "It would be nice to finally have a Scholar in our group and as you said... you would be the first." He then thought about her next question. "Well... if you like you'r welcome to help the others in the tribe... as well as watch the kits." He smiled. "You are not limited to just one order... as a Tribe we are all connected... we are all one... We all rely on etch other. If one goes down we all go down... For instance... say one of the Rouges required help with something. Just cause you are a Scholar doesn't mean you don't have to help... you could of course help them if you'd like.... if that makes sense at all..."
((OMG i keep getting Altairs color mixed up with red! XD))

"A family, more than an order," Ara stated. It made sense to her in her head, though she knew it might take her a bit of time to get used to it. She was so atuned to wandering, the sense of family wasn't something she was familar with. Or maybe it wouldn't be, who knew.
Morning dew started to soak her feet. It felt quite cool. "Tell me about the other members of your tribe. Are there many?"
((You can just fudge that one and do a time skip through the info if you want XD ))

"That is exactly right..."
He looked ahead once again to make sure he wouldn't trip over anything. That would be the last thing he needed... was to look like a fool in front of a possible new member.
"Ah... well... it would depend on the definition of many..." He chuckled. "Besides me there are 8... if you don't include the kits." He went on to explain who was who and that Kina,Farah, Hazumi, and arashi were related... Arashi and Hazumi being Farahs kits and not yet entered into an order.
((I hope that was ok XD I'm sure you know who's who))

((I know what I've read from the tribe thread lol))
Cam listened avidly. It sounded like quite an interesting mix of individuals. Kits too! Cam rarely saw little ones on her travels. All of these foxes sounded like ones she could get along with. And she really only had one more question, one that had nagged at the back of her mind from the start.
"Do you think they'll approve me of," she asked, a little worried. It sounded like the head of any position was important, and that the tribe opperated like a family unit made it even more critical that all could get along.

Altair stopped for a moment to look at her and smiled as she asked quite and unexpected question.
"Of course. I have no doubt in my mind... they will like you." He chuckled as his tail wagged a little. "Mostly everyone is easy to get along with... and when they see you for the first time i'm sure they will be excited. They always are with a new member."

Cam answered Altair's reassurance with a shy smile. She believed he was sincere, but it was usually until one experienced the real thing for themselves that they became calmer.
"So how would we go about this? You said you simply had to touch my forehead. Of course," she added, not wishing to seem presumptuous, "that's if you are certain you want me as a scholar."

"That is correct... but if its alright with you I would like to take you to where the Tribe is..." He looked into the forest. "it is not far form here... That way you can see exactly where you will be living." He then let out a small sigh as he lowered his head. "Also... I can not perform the... transfer I guess I would call it unless i am in front of The Makers great Alter..." But as soon as he looked down he was looking up at her again. "Though rest assured... i would love to have you as the Scholar of the Tribe..."

Cam nodded respectfully. "This time I will let you lead the way." A small smile played around her lips.

Altair chuckled as he turned to his left and walked out in front of her. "This way." he headed back in the direction of the castle. "Before we get there I would like to warn you... you might get a little crowded..." He laughed nervously and hoped she would be ok with everyone wanting to meet her.
