Duskfire Glacier Ommak

All of us have a path to walk, Veteran, he informed the young wolf with a nod.

Some of our paths are clear, as though many paws have traveled it before. Others are not so easy to discover or to follow. This is when we allow our spirit to guide us, and we listen to it closely. The spirit within us is powerful. The spirits around us, too, are powerful. All life shares this.

Issorartuyok wondered if the boy’s mother had taught him anything like that before. Veteran seemed as though he was filled with questions, wanting to discover more and to fulfill more of himself. It was a righteous cause. The northerner was pleased to see that a wolf so young was filled with such passion. It would do him well in the years to come, or so the large man believed.

You will learn more, as you live.

At this, the northerner smiled to Veteran fondly.
