Nan was completely unruffled by her question having negative results. No enemies was a good thing, not a rebuff of her skills. She barely batted an eye as her first theory was dismissed immediately. That merely meant it was time to examine the evidence and consider what other possibilities there were. She listened attentively as others spoke up, keeping her peace until discussion of patrols and teams came up.
Despite the input that females might not be advisable, she sat up straight, whiskers bristling importantly. "Clearly I'm needed in the field," she spoke up for herself. "I'll join someone for the patrols. My skills aren't needed here." She flicked her tailtip towards the area where the injured leopardess had been taken. "I can work with a male if that seems best. Just please be sure it isn't someone who will slow me down." Her paws were already shifting with eagerness to get moving. It was time to solve this mystery, and she was hopeful that she would have a paw in doing so.

Arcus listened to Dalmar, and nodded swiftly as he spoke. It made sense, perfect sense in fact, and he would not risk the colony for his own desire to brainstorm. “Acceptable,” he agreed. He would plan the patrols himself, and tell each person their own patrols. “I will hand out patrol details individually, and the only patrols that will be known about will be their own.” It would take a lot of work, but he was happy to do it. He might only be captain, but with any luck, this may boost him up to Commander if he played his cards right.
He nodded at the talk of genders. “I need all volunteers to speak up now,” he said, glancing around at the growing crowd.
He locked gazes with Nan, the female who spoke up. She, and her sister, were obviously well trained. She would be of use to them.
"We will match skills with weaknesses," Arcus spoke to her. "You will not be slowed down, but you will be matched to utelise both sets of talents, whatever they may be."

Event If you are interested in being involved in patrols/extra participation in the MetaPlot, please post your SoA volunteering now.
Make sure it’s clear that they are volunteering c: i.e. “I volunteer to help the patrols.”
They will be matched with another SoA, and it is then up to you if you wish to RP out a patrol for them, or have it ICly assumed that they did so.
Hu stepped forward when Dalmar motioned to where his daughter was kept. “Information will be gained from her, in time,” he said lowly, defensively as he stepped in front of the den that housed Ua. “For now, she must rest.”
He would guard the den himself, if he had to. However, it would be foolish if he did not offer to help the patrols. “I volunteer to patrol.”
Ardhira’I wiggled nervously, eying Dalmar and reluctant to let Ua be hassled. She hesitated, before speaking up as well. “I’ll help patrol as well!” She was not the strongest female, but she could be useful…hopefully.
Kianga watched the crowd around them, full of strangers and it made her nervous, or perhaps that was simply the chaos that she was starting to feel heading their way.
“I will help,” she volunteered as well. “My familiar, Viorica, will assist as well.” The bright blue serval was nowhere to be seen at the moment, but she would patrol with Kianga and whoever her partner was.

Scheherazade remained quiet for the most part. She kept her paws close to her stomach, and sat in an easy, if slightly lazy position. Though she wanted to stand to her station it was taxing work.
With the turn of conversations she was sure words would have to be crossed with Arcus before the end of this. Though she believed somewhere in her soul that he meant well, his methods chaffed her. Her eyes were almost fixated on him in an effort not to look at Hu, though a glance was had.
"I will volunteer for a patrol."

Once the raffle has been rolled, this ORP will wind down. If you're interested in posting more with your character, do so now. I will post the 'finishing' post on the 25th and then the RP will be finished.
Remember, if you want to use this for a breeding, your character must have 5 posts, and have enough words. I will continue to post if others post, to help people get to their minimum if they want.
Hu glanced at the crowd around them, so many different faces surrounded them, and all of them could have done this to her. To his daughter. Well, he knew a few who wouldn't dare - if not out of love for Ua, but fear of him - to hurt her, but others...well others he didn't know as well as he should. Perhaps it was now time for him to 'get to know' his fellow colony members. He was wary of many of them, and his wariness wouldn't fade until he had found out who had hurt his daughter.
"There is no point speculating until Ua is well enough to speak," Hu said firmly, glancing at his fellow council members and the crowd. "Go back to your dens. Those rogues who wish to help, you will be escorted to a temporary den." His eyes narrowed. "If you must leave, petition me first. If I find that any one has gone missing, I will hunt down the culperate and demand an answer. Best talk to me first." He would not imprison anyone, but fleeing was a sign of guilt.
"This meeting is dismissed," he said firmly, but glanced at Scheherazade briefly, the first time he had truly looked at her during the talks. He nodded to her, before moving towards the den in which Ua was sleeping.
His place now was by his daughter until she finally opened her eyes.
Ardhira'i hesitated, but did not follow Hu. He needed time with his daughter and her fussing would do very little to help. She sighed to herself, and glanced at the crowd. She should have stayed and talked, but she felt exhausted. She nudged Kianga fondly before she moved away, towards her own den.
She had just felt so tired recently.
Kianga nuzzled Ardhira'i before she left but did not stay long herself. Hu had dismissed them, there was nothing for them here now. She sighed, and began to move away, nodding to Arcus out of respect as she moved away from them all.
She couldn't believe that Ua had actually been attacked...it was a sad, sad day for her, and she could only hope that the female recovered well. She couldn't imagine what would happen to Hu if Ua did not recover.
Arcus watched the people leaving and did not rush to do the same. Instead, he stretched, his bulky muscles rippling beneath his fur. He was in shape, but he felt completely unprepared to handle this threat. He needed to whip his army into shape. He knew people thought him crazy, talking of war, but what if it was war? They would all be completely unprepared and that just couldn't do. He had found a home in the colony, and he was not about to let it get completely destroyed by some unknown force who had decided it was time to play games with the colony.
With a sudden force, Arcus took to the trees above them, launching himself high in the branches. He needed to plan.

OOC: This RP is finished. If you wish to post a final post by your character to tie off their involvement; feel free, but please do not continue to RP further than that. If you wish to roleplay this scenario further, start another thread in the subforum and do so there <3
The next ORP will happen within the next month. Until then, please feel free to RP out your own scenarios within the metaplot!
