I don't think that's a funny thing to feel. He answered. Then he began to walk, waiting for Theo to follow. They could work on catching something after he'd eaten. But I don't think you have anything to prove either. Some of us are quieter, but that doesn't mean we don't matter as much.

Strength means different things depending on who you are, I think. I never liked fighting, so I try to help instead. He wondered what Theo would make of that. Ashlar internally quailed at the thought of the younger wolf seeking out scars, but he knew by now he was not the norm.
