Five months ago the wolves of the old Imalla Territories discovered why the original inhabitants of the land had left; drought completely destroyed the land, as it had done every few years before. So the wolves left, seeking a new place to live. They traveled through mountains and forests before they finally came here, to the new Imalla Territories, where they reformed their packs and alliances. Secret Forest Pack was the only pack that kept its orignal name, while the other two Imalla packs became those of Long Lake and Apgar Valley and the dark packs became Akuji and Moonlance. As the packs settle they often come into conflict over territory. What pack will you stand with?
6:11:09 Alright. I haven't updated in quite a while. School totally killed me, but now that it's summer I can focus more on taking care of the site. For a while my computer had a ton of problems with viruses, too, so I was unable to do things like advertise and do work on skins. I'm working on all of that now. The site should have a totally new skin sometime in the next couple of days.

secret forest pack Secret Forest Pack, named for the old Secret Forest Pack of the original territories, is a well-forested and watered land filled with prey of all kinds. Moose frequent the wetlands around the rivers and deer run through the lush forests. This is an ideal place to raise a wolf pack. Silver Lake and Starlight Caverns are the most beautiful points of the territory, but White Wolf Creek and it's fertile valleys are frequented more by the wolves and other animals. Apart from Wite Wolf Creek and Silver Lake there are several other sources of water, including five or six other rivers and four other lakes. One side of the territory is covered in a forest called Secret forest and the other by a forest known as Lark Forest. Rock Fields can be found just outside of Secret Forest and Lark Mountain and Mt. Skyreach can be found on the eastern border.

long lake pack Long Lake Pack is larger than either of the other two Imalla Territories. It is filled with a variety of different habitats, from cliffs to hills and plains to forests and river deltas. It is home to two large lakes - Sunrise Lake and Long Lake - and at least ten different rivers. The Thunder River Delta is the most fertile land to be found in the territories, and moose frequent the area, along with several other types of deer and other animals. The Eagle Cliffs, so name for the eagles that nest there, is a place where the wolves often congregate, and where the densite is. The large territory could easily support a large number of wolves.

apgar valley pack Apgar Valley Pack, named for a fertile valley near the southeastern border of the territory, is about the same size as the Secret Forest Packlands. It is home to many rivers, but does not have any large lakes as the other packlands do. Instead, it plays host to seven smaller lakes. One lake has been named Elk Lake for the large herd of elk that frequents there, and another, Quartz Lake, serves as a densite for the wolves that make their home here. Unlike the other territories, Apgar Valley land is much more open, and home to a large set of plains and a series of canyons. Near to some of the lakes is forested land, but the rest is open. Prey is not scarce here, but it is quicker and not as large as some of the game to be found in the other territories. The wolves here will have adjusted accordingly, though.

endless mountains The Endless Mountains are aptly named, for they go on for miles without an end to be found. One could travel through these mountains for days and still find themselves in the midst of tall peaks and snowy passes. These mountains begin just outside of the Imalla Territories and are home to the three tallest peaks in the vicinity; Kintla Mountain, Columbia Mountain, and Crandell Mountain. These three peaks are known for their height and only that; they are treacherous to climb and the only other appeal would be the caves hidden in their slopes or the passes that run between them.

crystal lake Crystal Lake is larger than any of the other lakes in the area, being easily half the size of Akuji or Moonlance territory. It is home to a multitude of different species, from the fish that swim in its waters to the creatures that live on its shores and in the forests around it. It's a popular spot for loner wolves and other animals. Near the northern edge of the lake is an island. The water between the island and the closest shore of the lake is shallow and easy to swim, which is why the island is not void of life. On the island is more forest and a system of caverns. Near the southwestern shore of the lake is a large falls that tumbles into the lake from a tall cliff.

hungry horse reservoir Hungry Horse Reservoir is a large lake fed by a river that runs off of Crystal lake. It isn't as big as some of the other lakes in the area, like Crystal Lake or Long Lake, but it's definitely not small. Unlike many of the other lakes, however, Hungry Horse Reservoir is not situated in a fertile valley or lush forest. Instead it is surrounded by relatively dry land with very little plant or animal life nearby. During the summer this place is like a desert and the lake will almost completely dry up. During the fall and spring there is some life here, but not enough to consider this area more than a wasteland with a lot of water.

moonlance territory Moonlance territory belongs to none other than Moonlance Pack, one of the dark packs located in the outlands. The territory isn't completely inhospitable, but it's not as fertile as the Imalla Territories. Within the territory borders you can find a forest of dead trees, killed by a fire a few years ago along with a forest that is still very much alive and a mountain that looks as if it's been split in two by some powerful force. Murky Lake is yet another landmark in the territory that points to its less-than-pleasant location and its dark-minded pack. This isn't the most pleasant place to live, but the wolves here seem to manage well enough. At least there's plent of prey; and even if there isn't the wolves will simply hunt on loner lands.

akuji territory Akuji Territory belongs to Akuji Pack, and it is even more hostile than Moonlance Territory. It's also home to the more hostile pack, run by wolves with more bloodthirsty intentions than Moonlance Pack. The territory is home a dangerous forest full of swamps and crevaces that serve as death traps, as well as a place called Laertes' Cliffs, where many creatures meet their deaths trying to climb up or down treacherous cliff faces. Knife River is yet another danger; many have died falling into its cold, rushing waters. This certainly doesn't seem like a place that wolves would chose to live, but for some reason a pack has claimed this land as their own.

aurora peaks The Aurora Peaks is another mountain range, smaller than the Endless Mountains and located on the northwestern border of the Imalla Teritorries. It's a series of tall mountains often veiled by clouds, but beautiful when the sun shines on them. Once in a great while you might glimpse the famed Northern Lights behind them, far off in the distance. On the other side of the mountains are lands that are still unexplored, but perhaps one day wolves will venture past them and find new lands to explore. Or perhaps wolves from those lands will visit Imalla.

twin lakes The Twin Lakes are two large lakes joined by a river and nearly right next to each other. They aren't really twins, but they are nearly the same size and they have very similar scenary. Neither are in particulary populated areas, but they are a nice place to go if someone is trying to get away from everything else. There's water and food and the temperature isn't too extreme. During the summer there's shade to keep cool in and in the winter it doesn't get too cold or snowy. It's a great place to stay for a short time, and loner wolves seem to end up here often.
