Wolf's Blood
“His senses were keyed to alertness, but not because he had any reason to expect any trouble. Indeed, the gates had remained quiet for so long now that there were those who thought the patrols were a waste of time, that the Old World nations had accepted that the gates were closed to them. But happily for Derian, Ynamynet was not one of those who felt thus, and as long as she continued to support the watches, Derian knew that they would continue. The Wise Beasts also continued to support the pat...rols, sending representatives from among their number to join the community. Most of these were from among the winged folk, and when Derian had wondered why, Eshinarvash had explained. “Spring is a busy time for packs and herds. Not only are there young to be raised and guarded, but winter has worn away the last fat and the grass is not so thick—nor the herds so plump—that this is easily rebuilt. Later, when summer makes all plentiful, I would not be surprised to see the wolves and bears and great cats show willing to come here again.”MoreLess
