Blacktail Deer Plateau people let me tell ya bout my best friend

"ah, yeah, i've heard of howl," aditya remarked. "he's the one who recruited pema here, or so she told me. left just before i arrived." the rest of engel's story was unimpressive; he shook it off, not really having the energy to press for more details.

but he laughed at engel's remark, especially the strange motion he made with his eyelids. he looked more like a frightened doe than anything else--adi had no clue what he was going for, there. "very boring," he chuckled. "just day-by-day. trying to keep warm." he shuddered, a blast of winter wind hitting him as he spoke. the sooner spring came, the better.

there was one thing that had happened, which was aditya's pursuit of the rogue female. but only dawn--and moonspear's alpha female--knew about that, and adi wasn't keen on telling grayday anytime soon. engel spent a fair amount of time around morningside's leader--it would be even worse, coming from a secondary source.

he kept his mouth shut.
