Sun Mote Copse Caraway Tea

"No, I have not. I have never been in a situation, where I had to make that choice, though..." Wraen paused, when a dim memory resurfaced, featuring Terance and Rannoch and other Sunspire wolves coming in conflict with Liffey, who had opposed killing a trespasser. She no longer remembered the details of the whole conflict. "So, I can't speak for everyone, nor am I in place to judge them," she added. 

"There is a beast living in all of us," she went on, choosing her words carefully and turned to meet Bronco's gaze. "And I have felt it raise his ugly head, snarl and growl and ask for blood of the fellow kind. In certain situations. The beast sees the world in black and white, in right or wrong. There is no middle-road and he convinces you that there is only one way of dealing with things.

And it takes a great deal of self-control to keep the beast in check, not to let it guide your actions, corrupt your mind and make you do something you migth regret bitterly later," she said. "Because you cannot say afterwards - it was not me, it was the beast. You are in charge and you have to manage it," Wraen finished. 

"In regards of Kiwi... try to think through all the possible outcomes. She might be stronger than you, she might kill you. She might have regretted doing, what she had. Perhaps, if you find her, she has a family of her own and killing her would mean that you take away a mother from her children. Perhaps, she has a pack, has friends, who will go after you," she speculated. 

"It does not matter that you consider her worthless or that you think she deserves to be killed. Colt is dead and nothing will ever change that. You won't revive him, nor will you get praised by him for exerting justice. It will be just you and your deed and you will always wonder, whether you have done the right thing," Wraen said. "Always think about the bigger picture, about, how a single action of yours will start a chain of subsequent actions," she told him.

"The beast is unable to see the complexity of life. Be better than him," she finished and smiled at the young man.
