Snow crunched under her paws as she descended into the valley that in the warm seasons was painted in emerald hues of verdant grass, splashed with wildflowers of all colors. Now, it was painted in shades of white and grey, covered in a blanket of snow. The silence in the valley was a pleasant change to the upheaval in Valhalla. She didn?t remember Redwood pack being so hectic? But then again, they had been at war long before she had been born. It was a routine. And they had found ways to keep the spirits up. Stories and games to cheer up souls burdened by wondering who would be lost in the next raid, and who would come back.

She hoped with all her heart that Chrysanthe?s decision to put Syrinx at their heads beside her wasn?t a horrible mistake. And that, when the war was over, Chrysanthe would remove him from the place before he became too comfortable. Thinking back, she knew that it all came back to Eos and Syrinx. If Eos hadn?t overthrown Gargoyle, Isardis could never have come to power. At least not in Glaciem, and they would have had the support of the original Glaciem wolves if he had come to power elsewhere. It all made her heart sick.

She came to a place where the river, which still ran this early in winter, met up with a boulder, gathering her haunches and launching herself up the side, scaling it, claws scoring niches in the snow. She settled her haunches to the snow, eyes closing. It hurt to not trust Syrinx, but she didn?t trust him at all with their lives. Look what had become of Glaciem after he and Eos had taken over. Abandoned in a heartbeat. If I were younger? And If time were reversed. Wishful thinking. It was likely she would die in these coming years. Oh, she was fit and healthy, but she was also aging. She would be nine this spring. She gave a quiet sigh. Cormalin was getting old as well. Their times were drawing closer with every day. Deep blue gaze opened, gazing into the winter blackened water of the river.
