Winter - Chapter 3, part 2.
The camp grew quiet at that pronouncement. Hron leaned back against his pack, considering the messengers words. “I speak for the Wolves, we will of course answer the call. Though I would like to know who has so angered our Lord that he needs all the clans to fight?” Young Nuel answered as well. “As I speak for the Gryphons, I can tell you that we too will hold to our pact. And I am equally curious as to our foe.”
Daen wolfed down a hunk of meat as the men spoke, and followed it with some more wine. “Good. The Rendezvous is at Three Rivers two months hence. I must leave you now, I have many more miles to go before I can think of rest. I thank you for the food and wine. Do you know of and other bands of the Dream around here? I had heard there were more of us in service to the forest lords.”
Hron pointed off towards the distant fires of the other campsites, Altanki clans tended to not do well in close proximity unless on the battlefield. Frowning the warrior spoke. “Daen, who do we fight?”
“Everyone. The White Prince seeks to reclaim the Northern Crown. We fight everyone.”
With that he strode back into the darkness, seeking the others. Behind him the warriors began to pack their gear. It was a long walk to Three Rivers, and as early in the evening as it was they could make a few miles before needing to camp.
