XENIA’S POV We found the first solid clue the next morning. A message intercepted from the southern pass — not from Rellis, but from one of his contacts.

Upon closer inspection, a key sits in the full moon at the center. Wolves circle the moon, their howling and running figures hanging by fish wire.
