RAYLI'E SHASKA OF RITH'R FLIK
Shaska doesn’t know much about the circumstances of his birth. But he has been told that his mother had escaped from the shelter alongside the others –only just beginning to see the signs that she was ‘e pata. She had joined Rith’r flik because her own Clan had been scattered into the others during the earthquake. Apparently, she had been a kind and intelligent Owi, her short time in the group earning her a good deal of respect from those she had tended. Unfortunately, Shaska would never really know her.
His memories of his mother are of warmth and milk-scent, as well as a faint voice that grows ever more vague as the days pass. He remembers being sick. At times feeling as though he was drowning – his eyes sealed shut with gunk even after they ought have opened. He would later be told that his mother and siblings had been sick too – having contracted an illness that was slowly draining them. Unfortunately, Shaska and his brother, Rayli’e Kira’inona, had been the only members of the family of five to survive the illness. When the young Ren was finally able to open his eyes, there would be gasps of not only relief, but shock. The pup, like his mother before him, held the telltale splash of paler blue that foretold his destiny.
From that day forward, he would know his destiny – and deeply resent it. It wasn’t so much that he was opposed to becoming an Owi, of course, but the imposition. The idea that he had no choice in the matter was what truly upset him. No one ever really seemed interested in what he actually wanted. Meanwhile, Kira’inona seemed exceptionally jealous of the simple flecks of blue that denoted Shaska’s future. The tension and jealousy between the two brothers quickly pushed them apart. His brother was close to the other pups about camp at the time, but Shaska often found himself spending time alone.
When the day finally came for the brothers to become Ele’cannara, they would go their separate ways with little love left to lose between them.

PERSONALITY ⚘
♔ It takes an hour to appreciate someone ♔
Insightful | Observant | Mature | Grouchy | Melancholic | Misanthropic
Shaska never wanted to be an Owi, but he's done his best to take the position with grace. In fact. most would say he's quite mature for his age - less interested in engaging in mischief than many of the others his age. Not only mature, but wise. Or, at least, he seems to take notice of the small things and provide a surprisingly profound perspective on the matter. He admits that this nature makes him a good fit as a healer - but that doesn't mean he's happy about it.
In fact, happy is far from his usual outward mood. He generally has two moods - 'complete and utter grump' or 'deep seated sadness beyond his seasons.' This hasn't left him with many friends, but he doesn't really mind. Most other Canna are annoying anyway.
