Germanicus is leaving. I don’t know what that means for Mereo, but Killer and I aren’t sticking around to find out. Probably better to head off the questions too. He's going to be with someone else. He loves them, and I’m not interested in holding him to promises he clearly didn’t mean. I doubt Mereo will stick around long, once he’s gone. That affected them too. They’d settled here knowing they’d have neighbors, but the canyon might be empty soon if not enough wolves stuck around to claim it.
