Relationships… Take Effort

[KAWAI]

Kawai was burning.

The rage was evident in how the Lycans responded to the king's announcement of Hanzo's death. What had been a warning; a reminder of who the king was and had been had been gotten clear by the people of Kawai. 

The message lingered in the air, the warnings so harsh that everyone knew that there were bound to be consequences. And yet the morning that followed was filled with riots and the stench of burning coal as the opposing Lycans made their stance on what the king had done. 

Maybe it was because they thought the king had grown weak, or maybe it was because they just didn't understand why the Lycan king had gone that far for a rogue that didn't mean anything to the Lycan kingdom. 

It was a dare towards the king; a challenge of what was and what was bound, a reminder that at the end of the day, there were rules to be followed, and rules that the king himself had set.
