-cirp cirp-
Birds sounds started to fill the village. Most of the villager already woke up and did their activities. The elder and Mugha prepared to leave to the mountain.
"i hope he want to listen and help us"
"i doubt that father..."
"-sigh- let's not give up before trying my son"
"understood father"
The elder looked at Shanti.
"i leave this village at your command Shanti"
"I'll do my best" She nodded
Just before they left, some people who had hunting duty for this day approached Mugha.
"what's wrong?"
"Mugha... is it safe to go hunting in the forest?"
They worried about those humans, and that was very reasonable. Mugha also understood that. In fact, he was the only one who understood how powerful humans were.
"make a group of five or more. Don't get too far with each other. I think you will be fine if you not go too deep into the forest"
"got it Mugha"
They departed to the forest. Mugha and his father also prepared to leave the village.
"by the protection of our beast god ROGNIR"
Shanti accompanied them until at the entrance of Egi mountain.
"we are leaving now"
Shanti nodded and saw them leaving into the Monryad's territory.
When she went back and wanted to do her morning praying, Khall's replication (the doll) approached her.
"good morning Khall"

"...."
"?? what's wrong? you are kinda different..."
"whe....where you want to go?"
"..... to the shrine. I want to pray"
"i see"
The doll turned away and left from there. Shanti just stood there and still didn't understand what just really happened.
"maybe he's tired?" She tilted her head
She continued her way to the shrine. She washed her face and several parts of her body before she started her praying.
She put her hand in front of her chest. She closed her eyes and tried to focus.
"our beast god ROGNIR, your little wolf need your guidance.. when the forest can't become our shelter... and when our tribe can't become a reliable pack... only your fang can show us the way..."
The wind was howling. The bamboo trees were moving around pushed by the wind. Shanti kept focusing to hear her god's voice.
(HEAR.... THE APOSTLE'S CALL....)
(LITTLE WOLF.... WILL LEAVE THE PACK..)
(TRUE ALPHA.... FOR ALL THE PACKS....)
She tried to understand those words, and she hoped for another solution for their current situation.
"the mightiest wolf.... should we let our little wolf souls running to the heavenly green field? do we really need the apostle's help?"
(WOLF IN THE SOUTH.....ANSWER TO THE TRUE ALPHA.. )
She tried to get another answer, yet it always repeated. Was their destiny already fixed? couldn't they do something about it?
-fuuh- She ended her praying and sat near the shrine. She looked at the Egi mountain with its thick mist at the top of it.
"be careful... elder... Mugha"
She really hoped this disaster could be solved without using the last howl sacrifice ritual.
She headed to the village and helped the other to prepare for lunch.
When she thought that they would have some peace at that day, some commotions could be heard from the entrance of the village.
"help!! we need help here!!"
Several men were running while carrying one of them. Shanti ran as fast as she could and approached them.
"lay him down here"
They slowly put him down while Shanti prepared to heal him. But she was suprised when she saw the condition of that man.
"this wound...."
She decided to hold her questions and prioritized to save that man's life.
[MOTHER'S TEARS II]
"uugggh..."
The man had two holes near his stomach and his chest. She must save that man no matter what happened.
"please.... let me save him...."
Ten minutes passed, and the wounds completely healed. He also started showing a stable condition.
"our beast god ROGNIR still watch him... thank you Shanti!"
"-fuuh- there are six of you when you left the village. Where are the other two?"
"..."
"i know from this wound... it's human's doing right?"
She looked at them but no one tried to give the answer.
"we also didn't know what happened back there... when we heard his screaming, there's no one there.."
"and the other two?"
"they....are missing..."
Her ears lifted up and she couldn't hide her worry.
"then why you don't find them?"
"we....want to ask about your opinion.. is it safe to go deeper into the forest? are our numbers enough if we confront them?"
They were right. If they rushed and went deeper into the forest, no one would know what would happen.
Shanti closed her eyes and tried to find the best solution for this situation.
