There was almost a calm chaos that surrounded the castle as werewolves from all parts of the world flittered in and out through the doors. There was so many scents and movement I felt slightly overwhelmed.
"Can you believe so many werewolf's have met their mates already!" A young girl said excitedly to another walking next to her.
"I know, Layla met hers as well! We were talking abo-" There conversation faded as they moved past me, too caught up in their excitement to notice me standing a few meters away from them.
How poetic that we all are gathered here in the name of war and death and yet there is also so much of love being found and people's lives being changed not only for the worst.
It made me feel slightly better but I couldn't help but feel the heaviness of what's to come. I decided to continue on my way and as I stopped to greet people and to make sure they were all fine and had what they needed I couldn't help but notice all the youthful faces.
