King Elk Forest Till death do us part,

Praises now then finished, ever grateful the Deorwine had found a home again, the Bull turns sharp round within the hollow tree trunk to exit. Here she sees Celnes, the newly appointed King along her brother's side. We owe the High Elk much for giving us a fresh start. For a time she was unsure if the High Elk would grant such a thing, wondering if they had lost the God's favor. He still remained with them and so figured perhaps Celnes' new acceptance of those unflavored by the Gods had not banished them just yet. Still, the old wolf had no intention of playing nice with them. They were still heathens in her harsh yellow eyes.
