Duck Lake Eclipse Hazel

Nowhere in particular. To Birk this kind of aimlessness sounded suspicious, but he had been the same last winter and been forced to join a pack, because otherwise, he would have greeted the spring with both ears rotten away. Therefore he nodded in response and then mulled over about the next inquiry about Easthollow. 

He had not been part of this pack long, to pass on the judgement or be the perfect ambassador. He was also not so sure, how did the rules of keeping the pack's secrets applied to the newbies, what he was allowed to tell and what should be kept hidden. "A decent pack - lots of wolves around this time of the year, but - perhaps - with the spring the numbers will dwindle," he replied, knowing well, that, if it came to famine caused by overpopulation, he would be first to leave them. 

"Though, if you want to know more - I suggest you go and make a call at the borders. I have not been there long myself."
