ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Let me tell you the history of Kala. One day, flying back home, crossing the Murdersnow in Ragnarok, we saw a hunter riding a griffin knocking down a quetzalcoatlus, on the moment the winged beast fell down, do to the drugs, a pack of direwolves attacks the griffin. To prevent the predators to kill their newly acquired prey, the hunter flew away to a lightning wyvern hidden inside the forest. Using his own griffin as bait, the hunter ordered his wyvern to use his lightning breath, massacring the entire pack and his own griffin. Even my own lightning wyvern, Rayden, shuddered at such horrendous spectacle, as we watched the burned corpses, another pack of direwolves approched from the nearby forest, it were Kala's pack. The hunter's lightning wyvern got prepare to use his breath again and eradicate the direwolves as they get close to his murdered, ignorants of their fatefull fate. The same horrifying image was going to repeat itself again, but this time we could prevent it. I spurred Rayden to intercept the lightning breath, his scales will be enough to stop the attack and prevent any damange, no risk on sight, but i saw the inevitable, we weren't going to be on time, with this in mind, a slight turn to the left, claws prepared, we grab the first direwolf at the same time the wyvern exhaled his breath. A blinding lighting cross our backs eradicating the whole pack, except a grieving survivor sawing his entire family being annihilated and their burned corpses falling in the snow.
Back at home, in Ingrid's pass, our new guest isn't very happy, the plan was to let her into a pen, letting her calm down, and see her beahavior, but that didn't go as planned. When Rayden was about to let her go inside the pen, she bitten him, and ran away, it wasn't a big problem, because she still remains inside the perimeter of our base, and she wouldn't ran away too far. But instead of scape, she goes direct to our stegosaurus, Stela, realising her frustration and anger with the poor dinosaur. Fortunatly, Stela is though, and it would need more than just those teeth to penetrate her thick skin. While Stela put up with the direwolve's attacks, i start to charge some narcotic darts on my gun, but then, the direwolf stopped his attack, and took sigh on a much easiest prey. Running upside the ramp that lead to the pen, i was expecting that she will follow me, and she didn't disappoint me. We fell inside the pen, and i can sneak away outside of the pen, before get bitten. After some darts, and a couple of hours, she felt unconscious, we spend the night together, feeding her, and not letting her alone. We could see her sight, mixed with saddnes, frustration, anger and loneliness, but sometime into that night, we could see her looking at us, with a bit of acceptance on her gaze. At dawn, she starts to get up, already affected by the drugs, but fortunatly, there weren't any trace of the animal from the previous day. Now with a slight bit of confidence she licked my hand. We named her Kala.
We get her out of the pen, and introduce her to our former pair of direwolves, Akhila and Sombra, they accepted the newcomer, and now, Kala is not alone any more. The hunt will continue, and our pack, is growing.
