Lily III (known as 38f by biologists) was a she wolf and the former heiress to the Dawn Pack. She took on the rank of breeding female, after Hope stepped down (when her father, Altair died.) As a pup, she took on a cursed name, Lily, after the deaths of the two previous Lilies. Lily III hates that her name is cursed and tried her best to not live up to it. She has been successful so far. As a 1 month old pup, she and her two littermates were spooked by a cow moose, when they went out of the den for the first time. Her father, Altair and her mother, Hope chased the moose away. Unfortunately for Lily IIII, at the age of 1 month, her father, Altair died peacefully in his sleep from old age. This left Lily III heartbroken and she grieved heavily for his death. With her mother at the Summer Hunting Grounds, her littermate and brother, Nova was killed by a coyote while her mother, Hope was chasing the other coyote, leaving Nova unprotected. She was devastated at her littermate's death. As a 2 year old adult and now the heiress of the Dawn Pack, she met Cloud, a handsome white he wolf. She had 5 litters with Cloud. Unfortunately, Lily III's mate, Cloud died from old age in the winter, before Lily III had her fifth litter. This left her all by herself. She was almost killed by Crevice Lake wolves, when she was trying to find a new mate. She then met Pine, a golden he wolf with scars on his body from a forest fire. She gave birth to 7 pups that litter (with Cloud.) Lily III had an additional litter with Pine (5 pups.) Lily III was killed by a Crevice Lake wolf, while she was trying to invade and chase out the Crevice Lake wolves, obeying her father, Altair from a dream from Star Pack. She was furious at Luna and her father Altair after she woke up in Star Pack, but Luna reassured her that it is not their fault and the Crevice Lake wolves were just trying to defend their territory. She was then reunited with the rest of her family in Star Pack.

## Description

Lily III is a lighter version of her deceased father, Altair. She has a grey coat (but still have the black coat gene) with a black back, neck and nose rim. She also has a black hair tuft. She has deep gold eyes.

## Personality

Lily III is a bold, brave and loyal she wolf who loves her pups. She was very playful as a 2 years old wolf, playfully marking in Wapiti Pack territory with her favorite human toy, the pink handbag, After the death of her father, Altair and her brother, Nova, she desperately wants to protect her family from anything that attacks and touches them. However, after the death of her pups, Storm, Diana I and Hawk II from her first two litters, she became even more desperate and clouded with grief. She was no longer the playful young she wolf. In her third litter, she became so paranoid that predators was going to come out, that she woofed the pups into the den, when she could smell Crevice Lake wolf scents, but the attack was not actually happening. She followed the scents and chased the wolf away, showing her desperate nature. Little that she knew that the Crevice Lake wolf was spying on her and her pups, waiting for the perfect time to attack. She also played with her sick pup, Onyx until he had enough and Lily III was exhausted. Unfortunately, Onyx still passed away. This led her to being depressed and heavily thought of killing herself. However, when Diana II recovered, her spirits lifted up. At 6 years old, she became a lot wiser and more distant to her pups.

## History

Lily III was born to Altair and Hope, along with her littermates, Frost and Nova. At a very young age, she was chosen by Star Pack to become to heiress to the Dawn Pack. When Lily III came out of the den for the first time, she was spooked by a cow moose, who was looming at the den site next to a hill. Her father, Altair chased it away. Her mother, Hope revealed that she has a cursed name because two wolf pups called Lily died before she was born. This made Lily III want to prove herself that she can survive and not get killed.

When Lily III was a 1 month old pup and came out of the den for her first time, she was spooked by a cow moose looming above her den. Her parents chased it away. When her brother Frost got sick, she was worried about him, but luckily the illness was mild. When her father, Altair died from old age, she was devastated! Her mother, Hope raised her and Frost throughout yearlinghood, until adulthood. Lily III was devastated when her littermate, Nova was killed by a coyote in a coyote raid.

As two year old adult she temporarily left her pack in Tower Fall (who travelled to Slough Creek in her absence) to Amethyst Mountain to hunt and look for a mate for her pack. After hunting a weakened cow elk, she slept through the rest of the day. Then she found a rusty bowel which she carried when she playfully marked territory in the Wapiti pack territory. Being a two year old wolf, she still has her pup’s playful personality, which will fade a bit when she grows older. After another sleep in the now unclaimed Wapiti pack territory, she went further in and marked territory there. She came across a white Wapiti pack she wolf which she fought and won, thinking it kind of like a game. She then found a pink handbag which became her favorite human object. With scratches on her pelt, she left the Wapiti pack and went east. She followed a creek which led to a beautiful waterfall. She dropped her handbag and drank water. After marking territory everywhere, she fell asleep next to the waterfall. When she got up, she looked for elk at Lamar Valley, with no success. She went up the cliff, tirelessly looking but got too tired and fell asleep. After waking up, she finally found an elk herd and hunted a calf, which the mother delivered some very hard kicks. She slept to restore health and as soon as she woke up, two Beartooth Pack male dispersals greeted her. One was a black wolf and the other was white with black flecks. She fell in love with the white Beartooth male and started a trial with him. He reminded her so much of Luna, Lily III’s ancestor and the founder of the Moon Pack (which eventually became the Dawn Pack.) Tempest, the god of storms and misfortune, seems to approve of her new mate too, raining and thundering on the day she and Cloud became mates!

They journeyed to Lamar Canyon. On the way, Lily III showed the waterfall she discovered to Cloud, before she met him.  At Lamar Canyon, the atmosphere became so misty, and they discovered the ‘Tree Graveyard’ next to the Lamar River. It is a collection of tree logs washed up by the river!

After they arrived at Slough Creek, Lily III discovered that she was pregnant and they went down Little Butte. She was reunited with the rest of the Dawn Pack. Her mother, Hope was overjoyed to see Lily III pregnant and Lily III introduced Cloud, the new breeding male, to Hope and the rest of the pack. They spotted an elk herd and did some hunting before heading to Second Meadow, where Lily III was born. They found the exact same den (a dirt den next to a hill) where she was born and claimed it as their home. They still need to find other dens as backups though. Lily III and Cloud were getting very tired but they knew that if they slept, they would lose the opportunity to claim unclaimed territory. They had to keep going! They had to fight the Crevice Lake and Prospect Peak wolves to claim enough territory for the pups. Also, they hunted a mule deer doe.

Once, it was nearly spring, Lily III and Cloud settled down in the home den and had their birthday. Lily III was now 3 years old while Cloud was now 5 years old. Then, in April, they had their pups! Somehow, even though Lily IIII had the youthful prowess perk and they are a 4 star match, they only had 5 pups! They are beautiful. Their names were Mars, Bear, Athena, Crystal (the runt) and Storm! Lily III and Cloud were  proud of their pups and did  their best to rest to raise their pups until adulthood!

In their first litter, all except Storm made it until adulthood! (Storm made it to the end of the Slough Creek episode, but was very sick. I rolled to see if he would make it, but he didn't! Athena, Bear, Crystal and Mars all made it to adulthood!

On their second litter, 2 of Lily III's pups (Diana and Hawk II aka Silverhawk) got sick when they were at the summer hunting grounds and both died!  Lily III was heartbroken and her personality totally changed! Only four pups survived until the end of the Slough Creek episode (Iris got sick but survived by my roll.)

Lily III and Cloud were both very clouded with grief from the loss of Storm, Diana I and Hawk II (aka Silverhawk) from their previous litters. They named their first den from the third litter Rolling den of Hawks, after their deceased son, Hawk II. Lily III, now a mid aged wolf at 5 years old, became very aggressive attacking any wolves and other predators, who would pose a threat to their pups' life, from being clouded with grief! Cloud was now an old wolf, with the age of 7 years. He became much more willing to take good care of his pups before he died and joined Star Pack. it was going well in the Dawn Pack and Lily III completed one of the dreams the ancestors gave him by killing 10 elk. Previously, Lily II chased a wolf spying on the Dawn Pack, thinking he'll start a raid. However, two more wolves from the Crevice Lack Pack attacked, after the spy let them know that the Dawn Pack had pups.  Then, there was a bear attack and the bear boar caught Sirius II by the scruff and seriously hurt him before being rescued by Lily III and Cloud biting on the bear's butt. The next morning, Onyx got sick, and Lily III, who lost three pups from previous litters from illness, was seriously worried and prayed to Star Pack that he would live.  She played with him all morning and afternoon, until she was exhausted. But this was not enough to cure him. As days passed, he got weaker and weaker and became much less energetic. One day, Wren got sick too and Lily III was so worried for her pups as her heart was beating fast.

Then, the worst happened. The Crevice Lake wolves are back and the raid started when Lily III was distracted, playing with Onyx. She finally stopped rolling on her back and went after one of the wolves. Unfortunately, the other wolf went and killed Wren (who was also sick.) Blinded with fury, Lily III chased Wren's killer and killed him, mercilessly! She howled over his dead body, thinking that the ancestors will at least praise her and cure Onyx's illness. However, as more days passed, he grew even weaker and weaker and Diana II also caught Onyx's illness. At 2 percent health, Lily III was sitting down with Onyx constantly howling at the sky, at the ancestors, for a miracle to happen. However, it never came and his body went limp and cold, signifying that he has joined Star Pack, along with Wren. Her heart was shattered into a million pieces. Not only three of the pups from the previous litter had perished, she lost both Wren and Onyx from this litter, who she spent so much time with, trying to help him get better. Diana II has gotten way sicker and at that point, she knew that she would die too, like the previous Diana.

On a stormy day (which is a day where Star Pack was mourning the pups who died), Lily III has lost the will to live and was seriously considering about committing suicide, so that she can be with her pups again and be reunited with her deceased parents and siblings.  Cloud was also devastated, as he distanced himself from the pups and rather stayed at the den than helped Lily III hunt.

She decided to make the move to another den, thinking that getting her pup, Diana II to move will help clear her lungs and get her healthy again. She let her walk part of the way and then carried her through the rest of the journey. At some point, her pups became too tired to keep going, so she called them into the tall grass to get some sleep. She and Cloud also went to sleep. When she woke up, a miracle had happened. Diana II was healthy again! And her body was healing. Lily III's heavy heart has been lifted and she realized there is hope after all to her future and the pups. However, she is forever changed from when she was two years old. She was now five and has become a lot more serious and aggressive to other predators. Cloud is now seven and is nearing his end and he became much more of a loner and doesn't communicate with his mate or pups that often. Lily III took Diana II's healing as a sign from Star Pack, that there was hope after all, for the future of her life and her pack and her pups' deaths were not in vain.

The fourth litter was very hard! There was sickness everywhere. Lilac, Myrtle and Whisper got sick, but they recovered! Unfortunately, Myrtle was killed by an eagle, being disobedient when she  woofed the pups in the den. The eagle swooped in to get Myrtle behind a tree and I couldn't see the dive happening! I ran to her, but it was too late! Atlas III wandered off with Lilac, away from his parents and when a Crevice Lake stranger wolf attack happened, Lily III wasn't able to save Atlas III, as Lily III couldn't see him and he was plucked by a Crevice Lake wolf. Then at the rendezvous site, sickness strikes again, and it claims the lives of Thunder and Sirius III, despite their parents' best efforts!  This left only Lilac and Whisper left. In my roleplay, at Tower Falls, Whisper was not a very good hunter, as she was a runt and she died from starvation. She joined her deceased siblings at Star Pack. However, Cloud managed to survive until the end of the Slough Creek episode, despite being an 8 years old elder wolf.

Unfortunately, as Lily III and Cloud were marking territory and preparing for their fifth litter in winter, Cloud passed away from old age in his sleep, at almost 9 years old. Now alone, Lily III was almost killed by two Crevice Lake wolves as she tried marking in their territory! While venturing into Junction Butte territory, Lily III found her new love, Pine. Pine is a two years old light red wolf with burns from a forest fire. After settling at the den next to Slough Creek, Lily III turned 7 years old and Pine turned 3 years old! Lily III then gave birth to Cloud's pups. She had 7 pups at the den, which was a blessing from Cloud, in Star Pack. They named one pup Stormcloud, after Cloud! And they named a pup Wren II, after a pup Lily III lost in a previous litter. That was a lot of pups!

On Lily III”s fifth litter, it was easier than expected, until Lily III and Pine's (actually with Cloud) litter got to the Summer Hunting Grounds. Early on, Honey was killed by a cougar and an ancestral blessing was used to revive her. After this, Honey developed trauma and was very scared of cougars and was a very timid wolf pup in general. Wren II and Stormcloud (named after his father), both got ill. Stormcloud recovered, which made his parents relieved, but Wren II died from her illness! Now, Wren is the cursed name, after Lily, because two wolf pups named Wren died!

After Lily III's pups made it to the summer hunting grounds, things took a turn. There was a bear attack and a Crevice Lake wolves attack.  The bear injured Lily III really badly  as she fought fiercely to chase away the bear from her pups. Her mate, Pine, got an injured leg (I was on the injuries update beta!) She was forced to hunt, so she could recover. However, she asked Pine to stay behind, so his leg could heal and she tried hunting by herself. But Lily III got really injured from trying to hunt an elk and got a cracked rib! She had to call her mate. She had to abandon their hunt, since Lily III was close to death. After their sleep, Pine's leg healed, but Lily III's ribs did not. The pups were really hungry and Lily III managed to feed herself with elk calves and fawns who were hiding in the grasses. But that wasn't enough. There was a Crevice Lake wolves attack and, while she was fighting, one of them severely injured her hind leg!

She was left with a limp, since she was unable to put her weight on it. She and her mate tried hunting a mule deer, but Lily III found that she was too slow to take one down. It was July now and Lily III resorted to hunting elk and fawn calves in the herd to sustain herself and her pups. Lily III's ribs healed then. Then, Honey got sick, leading Lily III to be very worried for her! She wasn't getting enough food, so that made her sicker! Luckily, Lily II’s leg healed and she was able to kill two mule deer and a fawn for her pups and they were no longer starving, but Honey unfortunately succumbed to her illness while she was on her journey to Tower Fall.

## Death

In June, Lily III received a dream from her late father, Altair from Star Pack to take over Crevice Lake territory. He said that if she succeeded, she would not receive her last dream from Star Pack until the age of 10. However, at the second day of aggressively marking territory in the Crevice Lake's territory, she was attacked by five Crevice Lake wolves! One of them (the breeding male) leapt on her and delivered the killing bite to her neck. She woke up in Star Pack's Hunting Grounds, confused and angry. When Luna, the goddess of the moon and death and her father, Altair came to tell her what happened, she was furious at them! However Luna calmed her down and told her that it wasn't hers of Altair's fault. Luna simply said that the Crevice Lake wolves were defending their territory. Luna said that family were waiting for her. She joyfully reunited with her mother, Hope , her siblings and her lost pups. Rose, the previous mate of her father, Altair came up and introduced herself to Lily III.
