"My....Father....Bloodfang, he's comming!" He looked around the room and locked eyes with Stripetail,"I hope you have many a good fighting beast here Stripetail, our magic is no good against him. He is shrouded in a black evil that will stop even the strongest magics." he shuddered as his newfound memories recalled the horrid slaugther of his tribe. His father killed all hundred and fifteen wolfen warriors in his tribe, killing the young and old too."We will be killed if we can't stop him."
"They said that she was sick an that they would be ere as soon as she is well again." Krolm stood in front of Shoulm explaining the situation and the events that just happened.
"Fine then, as long as she has agreed, wolves are curious creatures. She will most definately come here and see what I have to offer." Her sightless sokets gleamed with her dark magic. She saw into the eyes of the badger Sloan, looking at Mara's sick body and seeing the healing badger in the den,"Ah, so she is sick. She is not a liar good." She looked up to the roof seeing only what her magic let her, Kruga the great wolverine warlord's spirit was above them,"I will my lord, she will come do not worry my master Kruga."

Stripetail missed most of what Ripfang had said, it had all come out in a rush. He got the gist however."Slow down Ripfang.. So your father, who destroyed his own clan, is coming here? That's not good news. But I fear nobeast, and nobeast can withstand my strongest magics" Stripetail gave the trembling wolf a glance. "Your father is obviously powerful, but he has never faced the likes of me. Do not panic, creatures like him feed on fear and despair."

Brigg ordered Mara to bed and there she lay for hours, half asleep as her companions rested and warmed themselves in the medecine badger's strange den. Heavy roots broke through the ceiling, serving as rafters. Hung on them were herbs, gourds and flasks of fermenting medecines. The entire room smelled of something strong and pungeunt, and Mara looked to see that Brigg was burning a small bundle of strange herbs. "Now, Mara," the badger sat down beside the wolf stiffly. She set a steaming bowl beside her, wringing out a cloth and placing in on Mara's chest. "Well we banish this cough, tell me where you've been..."
Outside, the small army had reset camp. The dense woods of Mossflower kept out most of the rain. Their fires burned high on wet wood, and the rainwater ran downhill away from thier tents. They had a small pawful of good fortune for once.

"We cannot let our fear, our anxiety, overwhelm us. That goes for both Ripfang, and you as well, Haydn and Garrick. Courage must be your ally, in these trying times. " Stripetail replied.

"You sound very much like my father at times," garrick muttered, looking over his steaming plate of food. "He gave me very nearly the same advice, before he went on a long hunting trip. That was the winter we lost him." he wolf didn't sound griefstricken, but he spoke in a matter of fact way.

Ripfang walked away whispering under his breath,"We will die if we stay, he can't die..."
Bloodfang ran with a quickness, his feroicity scary all in his path away, long before he reached them. Though one beast stood strong in his way, a fighting hare. He held two rapiers in his hands, ready to kill Bloodfang."That bally worm killed my friends and father." Bloodfang stopped and looked at the hare,"HA, you want to stop me? Go ahead and try!" The hare swung both rapiers at Bloodfang who caught and snapped both blades in his hands."HAHA! Thats the best you can do?" he looked at the hare and picked him up by the throat,"Pathetic." He threw him in the air and caught him by the top of the head, a crack was heard as Bloodfang crushed his skull.

Mara and darian remained with Brigg for three days. Under the badger's care, the wolfess's cough began to dry up and vanish. Though still weak, and angry at the time they'd wasted, Mara was humbled by the loyalty of her company, and it was something that rattled around in her head the whole time as they took to teh road again, stopping first, at Shoulm's hideout. Mara entered the scene catiously, but without fear, accompanied by Darian, Sloan and a young female stoat. "I am Mara Siuil A'Run.. and what do you want of me, Seer?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The wolf brothers were eager to get the casting under way. haydn was anxious and chewed his nails. He'd neve met his father, not since he was a blind and deff babe, at any rate. He couldn't remembe his father holding him, that one time.. Garrick pushed away his empty plate, "not to rush anything, but are you ready? I think haydn my chew his paw off if we wait muh longer." In response, Haydn slowly drew his paw from his teeth, and scowled playfuly at his brother.

Sek-Raktaa watched the scene with mixed emotions, and after ensuring that his plate was clean, he got up and left. "I'm going to get me sssome fresssh air." He said simply, walking out of the abbey into the open. Due to various encounters in his past, he had a certain dislike against summoning the dead. That's why he would prefer to be as far away as possible, once Stripetail started the incantation.

garrick watched the lizard leave, but said nothing, quietly noting it, he would ask later, but it was Haydn who turned to Stripetail and asked candidly. "Is Sek alright?.. " The young wolf watched him go, biting his lip.

The wolves sat patiently, watching the room slowly empty as beasts finished there meal. As the hum and bustle of the lunchtime hours slowly lifted, and the abby dwellers desperesed, back to their duties, and the dibbuns upstairs for a nap, Garrick and haydn sat, thinking of what it would be like to see the risen face of thier fathr; to speak withhim.

Stripetail stayed at the table, some distance away from the wolves. "Saving Mara is paramount. Ripfang must deal with his father on his own..." He said to himself. "I can't do two things at once. I can only do so much.."
