Bloodroot Hollow
The Bloodroot Hollow is a maze of towering red maple trees, their identical trunks and leaves making every direction look the same. Each tree seems a mirror of the last - twisted just so, draped in scarlet leaves that never fall. Dense thorns snarl the forest floor, snatching at fur and flesh, turning backtracking into a painful gamble. Travelers often lose their way, unable to tell if they’ve moved at all or wandered deeper into something ancient that does not wish to be left.

hierarchy
victus is a matriarchal pack with an emphasis on passing along strong, pure genes. to continue their powerful line, they focus on cultivating warriors as the standard. new initiates that fail to choose a particular path recieve the default rank of rihhpa because fighting is predominantly their culture. since weakness is seen as a direct threat to their success, those deemed unworthy fall to the bottom of the ladder. elders are not common (it is an honor to die young in battle) and therefor do not have a specific rank, and all wolves typically stay in their rank for their entire lifespan.
