"Why do you think that Saras would support Meesei in this?" Ahnasha responded to Janius. "Everyone on the council is either concerned for her, or just frustrated with the situation. Saras himself has had to put in a lot of effort to try and suppress all the rumors that have been floating around the clans. Even with the war going a bit better for us, morale has been down because of it. I don't think people are as confident in Meesei or the rest of us as they used to be. That alone could be very bad for the war. I think Saras would support us."

Lorag nodded. "Might be true. Actually, it's probably true. Saras works a lot more with the council than he does with Alpha herself. 'Course, if he don't agree with us and he does tell her, then we'll never be gettin' that book. And if we don't him, well, he's very good at findin' people."

Kaleeth let out a sigh. "Hopefully, Sabine can just talk her out of all of this."
