When Cora was sure that everyone was settled she began to speak "The war officially began on August 16, 2108 your birthday but, the threat of was was eighty years before. The day that the Scoin died, Shay Doran. I assume that you already know of Shay and how he helped Calla Tor's pack and the Searchers end the War of All Against All. When Shay died the Keepers regained their powers, and wanted they wanted revenge for "the wrong that was done to them" as they put it. using their powers they created the creatures called Protectors, they're similar to the Keepers old body guards the wraiths in the sense that they feed off of pain and sorrow. Except now they do not need to be summounded by a Keeper, they look and smell like humans and were given an awful power. If you let a Protector get a hold of you and if you don't get away in time they can take away your ability to turn into a wolf. The Keepers maipulated the humans into thinking that we are the evil ones and will kill everyone so that we're the dominate race. Any human that saw past their lies and fought against Keepers in the past was brutally killed and many times their famalies were killed as well whether they were part of the fight or not. After a few years the humans became fearful, to afraid to fight back. Many of our kind have been killed, there is no more than fifty of us left. The ones that weren't killed had the power taken awayand the others fleed the providence and went to place just North of here over the peaks, a place called the Burrow. That is where we are headed, the remaining wolves are building an army to fight agaisnt the Keepers and anyone else who is agaisnt us." Cora had stopped and asked if I had any questions and to make sure that I hadn't gotten lost.
"Why am I so important then? Like I said before my mother owned a ranch and my father is the worst person on the planet" I asked, the question had been inside my head since I left the Fort.
"You're the grandaughter of Calla and Shay and for that reason we know that you're the Scoin now, like your mother before you. Withour your help we will never win this war and our kind will cease to exsist."
I sat there in shock for what seemed like forver Cora's words buzzed throught my head, the idea that I was the Scoin and how many people were depending on me to aid them in the battle was almost to much.
"I think that is enough for tonight, if you want to know more or-" Cora started before I cut her off.
"No, I just want to sleep, it's been a long day. I don't need to know anything more for now."
Cora nodded laid down and went to sleep, the rest of the pack had already fallen asleep except for Michael who smiled weakly at me and moved over so that he was sitting beside me. We sat in silence for an hour or so then he spoke up.
"If you don't mind me asking how did you end up at the Fort?"
When I didn't respond he apologized, "Sorry, if it's to much for you after what Cora told you I-"
"It's fine, it is just something that I wish never happened" I told him.
