Hidden Spirit

“Waabishki-ma’iingan, your commitment is strong, and your heart has proven pure.You have shown yourself to be worthy.”


Morgan bowed his head, humbled to hear the white wolf’s words of praise. However, what the wolf said next caught him completely off guard.


“Your willingnessto sacrifice your own desires for the good of Wolf Clan was all we asked, and you have shown you are willing. There will be no need for you to relinquish your love for, or relationship with, Waabijii-ma’iingan.
