The sound of the horses galloping loudly could be heard reverberating across the woodland. Between them, nothing but the chilly wind's whistle and the ravens residing in the trees could be heard cawing.
As they moved farther into the forest, Nikolai's thoughts started to stray and he tried to repress memories that were coming to the surface. He stopped his horse and dismounted while grunting.
"It will be easier if we walk." He said to Rhaziel before leaving.

The brisk wind blew, reminding Nikolai of the disastrous night. Despite his efforts to prevent his mind from conjuring up vivid recollections, he could clearly hear the voices.
Pure-blooded predatorial lycans growling loudly as they get ready to attack their prey, who were the creatures of the woods.
