They were killed quickly, it seems, claws and teeth. None of the warriors even had the chance to shift before they were all dead.” “Shit,” Gamma Everly replies lowly, looking around the woods tentatively. “And no sign of where the assailants may have gone?”

An older soldier, perhaps around forty, was trying to pull himself out from under a mass of rotting corpses.

~Valeria~ The square looked like someone had thrown a rave for death. Bodies everywhere, wolf corpses scattered across the stone like discarded trash. Blood filled the cracks between stones. I'm never sleeping again. Like, ever. This is gonna haunt me forever. Lysander was sprawled out on the ground with these black veins crawling up his leg like evil tree roots. Wolfsbane poisoning.
