Frostfire Ridge and those of you who are downtrodden

there is a terse, skeptic tug of wintersbane's lips; furthering his disapproval until it is etched into his face like carvings into stone. he knows that this is unavoidable ...and to be expected; but he still does not believe they were old enough to venture outside the safety of the glacier's borders. least of all by themselves ( though he certainly has no leg to stand on but wayfarer doesn't know that and wintersbane doesn't plan to divulge ). don't lie to me. wintersbane does little to soften the stern tone the rasp of his voice. he would rather his children be honest with him. would the boy have been older, wintersbane might not've seen through it — but children were not the best liars.

hold it — wintersbane barks, catching up to veteran in a few strides. the ridge would make our territory too big. wintersbane says simply. while i consider it one of our hunting grounds we do not need to claim it.
