The Elk's Crown
Surrounded by redwood, oak, birch, maple, and even pine trees, a serene land is painted to those who cross here. Plentiful in its bounty, streams cross the land and harbor a large herd. Within the depths is the king of them all. On occasion, one may see the grand ruler, a large-standing elk, who guards the sacred forest.

Relations:
Elkshire wolves are generally secluded individuals, though friendly to each other as they reside deep within the forest. Protective over their claim and that around, many times they'll give proper warning to leave, but when a thread occurs, they come together as a proper pack. Though in particular, often wolves of pure-white will not be allowed, other colors may vary, but the Queen would not allow someone of snow white to enter the woods. They are particularly neutral but will take in allies if the deal suits them so.
They hold claim officially to The Elk's Crown, but also claim Royal Wisteria Woodland & Sleeping Doe's Range

'NEWSLETTER'
April 2022 Rahma and Hawking have joined Elkshire! Both of which are Divine Deer to, and are to be treated as equals. Hawking has also found a 'portal' within the north of the temperate that led him into a strange jungle. It's advised by the Queen to avoid as the true dangers are unknown. It cannot be said if those who enter, will return like Hawking.
March 2022 Three royal children, Edith, Calhoun and Aldritch have gone missing. During the search, Queen Celnes was injured by a cougar and currently recuperating within the royal den. She still asks everyone able to search far and wide for them. She gives Warwick authority to use at his discretion while she recovers.
Feburary 2022 — a guest by the name of Minthe is welcomed to the woods for a temporary time (or joins permanent) advised to treat neutrality and help nourish to health.
September 2021 — bear within Royal Wisterian Woodlands, on a friendly basis, do not hurt, they are an ally
ORIGINS
"Oh thirsty fire, hear the voice of water"Long ago did the first Queen, Celnes, live within the old home of the Déorwine family, Kingslend. However a fire had taken hold of their kingdom, and so many had to flee. Originally so she had lost all, and took refuge to another pack - but with enough healing, and finding her siblings, they were determined to rebuild. Upon rebuilding their claim and finding where the High Elk, the Déorwine God, has reclaimed, they cross mountains and rivers, forests and plains, till' finally finding their home. Alongst the way met many family, and so to rebuild the nation, they started anew.
However with wanting power, Celnes accepted many that are consider unholy, and this disharmony to the devotee's of the High Elk. As tragedies soon follow, eventually retribution came from the two rulers, Celnes and Cenric. Stabbed by irony itself, a white elk.. Though only one, awoke alone within the new land that it was.
There does she rebuild what was lost, but now in the name of Elkshire. A new hatred carries with the association of white wolves, but she quite leniant to other colors. Now generally many wolves vary within their hues, but the brown-coated may always be in favored. Now within The Elk's Crown does the deer-loving group remain, and hoping to grow larger.
RELIGION
Though not all within the Elkshire group follow the religion, it is still deemed an important aspect of them. The Queen herself follows the way, and thus the group is similar. They do not allow the hunting of horned elk, finding that they are Apostles to the High Elk. Though once it was an allowance to be able to hunt those without their antlers - it has now been banned that no hunting of elk or deer is permitted. Certain traditions are followed, an albeit dscrimination toward white-wolves in the mixture, the Déorwine family customs and religion are not forced down upon. Anyone may join regardless of their thoughts on God, but a respect to the High Elk is still to be asked. More about their religion can be found HERE.
