บท 208: The Wind of Change

RETH

It was so late.

He'd finally gotten the security council out of the cave and on their way, each of them with different tasks to help in the preparation of welcoming the Bears in the coming days if it was needed. Reth still hoped, although it was fading, that war might be averted. He'd seen the Creator do greater things, hadn't he? His mate was here, after all.

Shaking off his distraction, he'd turned to the wise-women, peppering them with questions about whenever humans had been brought into the Rite before. But there was woefully little that they knew that would apply to Elia's situation. He bid them leave and rest, to start early, searching the histories for any advice or strategies for unifying broken Tribes.
