"The scouts reported that a dark wolf is behind the killings. It was supposedly larger and faster than the others, but unlike the other wolves, this one looked demonic."
"It has been corrupted?"
"Yes, it has, and the farmers are scared. If this dark wolf kills all the frost fang wolves in the mountain peaks, it might direct its attention towards the farmers in the farmlands, and it won't be long before the capital becomes its next source of meal. We can't risk allowing the beast to roam around the mountains and Farmlands freely; I believe we have to do something about it."
Aaron pondered over everything Diana just reported to him.
With the mines, forest, and farmlands secured, Aaron had just one more place within the barony to reclaim but to get there; they would have to pass through the mountains.
