Euron did not contribute a howl to the claim. He remained on the fringe, in the shadows, a soundless observer nearest to his brother. He was like Ramsay, here because he had need of a pack's protection, although he cannot place where the need was coming from. In his mind he was not convinced there was one, but he felt tethered to these strange wolves, and can think of no reason to go anywhere else. He missed the dark woods, but all that was left there for him to return to were the trees. His family — Ramsay — was here.

Delight dismissed them, and Euron sought a quiet place to sleep. He was beyond weary from the loss of Maegi and Cicero, and from the constant disruption in his life brought on by all the travel. He wanted — needed — to stop for a long while.
