Scarlet moved over to him and opened the book, opening it to a chapter and pointing to it. A drawing of a huge wolf with a dozen tails was on it, all black with golden eyes. "The wolf of the black moon....it's a legend at best, but the aura that Megumi has....the power within her....this wolf was the protector of the spirit gate between heaven and hell. And she was rumored to have taken a mate....who no one knows. But when the guild was formed, all the old spirits suddenly vanished as I know you recall. Many were killed by mistake by losing their shrines or their prayer grounds....but the wolf of the west and his Shadow pack weren't ones tied to a place...so why were they afraid of the branding?" 

Megumi frowned and said "I can tell....charmer" she turned to head back with garoth, clearly still on edge. She was already thinking this might have been a bad idea.
