The wolf temples

Seph walked towards the towers and stopped because he realized he hadn't eaten for days when he said "I hope they have food," Fallenheart nodded "yes".

Seph and Fallenheart walked towards the towers and seen a gate with an obelisk, behind it, and on it, they seen a stone wolf head with shiny emeralds as eyes, the towers in the back had wolves carved into the walls.

Seph seen the gate was locked "Fallenheart, how will we get past this gate?" Fallenheart walked towards it and pulled out a wolf-shaped key and stuck it in the gate and turned it and the gate and opened it.

"Of course," said Seph. They walked in and seen two wolf guards with pikes guarding the way. They had black fur and stood on two legs, a golden mask decorated with aquamarines and blue sapphires.

"Who is that? Is that- Fallenheart" the wolf said

"Yes, old friend," said Fallenheart

"Welcome home" said the wolf

The wolf escorted them to the tallest tower. Inside, hundreds of statues of wolves guarded the hallways. Then the wolf stopped and said "here is the master,"

They walked through a door covered with adder skin, and sunscale raptor scales decorating it.

"What is it now!" said Acaninre, Seph seen he was dressed in a gold decorated cloak made from silk, leather, a gold crown, and his fur was black, He was wearing a cape made from sunscale raptor skin and two spikes made from silver and decorated with lapis lazuli gemstones. Several skulls were impaled on the spikes.

Then he turned around and seen Fallenheart "Fallenheart, what are you doing here"

"Well me and Seph have been traveling for days without food" said Fallenheart said. Acaninre said "we were going to have a feast, care to join us?" Fallenheart nodded "yes,"

When they were walking down the hall, Seph said "what is it with you and wolves?"

Seph walked through a gold door and seen a long table with lots of food on it, including sunscale raptor meat, shrimp, roasted crabs, stuffed rabbits, boiled clams…

Wolves ate meat under the table; a silk tablecloth covered the table. Seph walked towards it and seen the wolf warriors pour into the room, claiming chairs.

After the feast, Acaninre came towards them and said "so… what was it" Acaninre said "the death bleeder gem," Seph said "do you know where it is?"

Acaninre scratched his head and said "well, it sounds weird but; in the northlands, the dragon spawns, has it,"

They left the temple and trailed for a long time. Seph and Fallenheart knew they couldn't get there on foot.

Around them were trees, pools of gold sunlight gleaming everywhere; through the trees was a small lake and large trees with golden bark, blue and red dragonflies dipped the water, multicolored birds flew in the sky, the water was crystal clear.

A small pier made from cherry wood perched right at the edge of the water, a large boat floated on the water, it was made from cherry wood too, and Seph just then noticed on the trees were fruit that looked like cherries, but were purple.

Seph went to the boat and seen a person, "would you like to ride to the northlands?" he asked them. Seph and Fallenheart both said "yes!"

Seph took out some salted meat from his backpack, and began eating. Fallenheart grabbed a handful of random food from his backpack and swallowed it whole "I think there were maggots in those," said Fallenheart, Seph gulped in disgust.

Weeks later, the captain said "here we are,"

Seph walked off and nearly froze as soon as he got off, snow was everywhere! Around them was all snow, and the lake was covered in blue ice, large crystals rose from the ground, cold as it was, it was a beautiful sight.
