“In truth, the time the Arc first expressed his curiosity and I speculated about what she might be, I thought it would only be a pass over at best, just like the many others before him. That it was simply his time to be vetted. Arcs are naturally drawn to her, but she has passed 27 Alpha’s and then the Fire Wolf himself and there was no sign of this even after many days when I received word…” I pause, and I stare at the candlelight that flickers, “She was heading here just over a decade ago, when we lost her by the borders in that fire.”
