Northstar Vale eclipse

It seemed harder for wolves less like him to understand that there was safety in numbers. That patrolling would become largely unnecessary, as the presence of other predators never compared to the might of a well-formed wolf pack. Warbone considered that maybe even this was not enough to make a wolf like Tryphon feel safe enough -- it certainly didn't encourage his own partner to stay within the valley's keep -- but he tried not to be judgemental all the same. Knowing that he had damaged his relationship with Saena, made him want to be more careful about exercising his control over those beneath him. He wanted them to want to be here, not remain because they were forced to.

"Are you succeeding?" he asked then, instead of scoffing at the baseless answer, as was his wont.
