Ahnasha continued reading letters for a while, though she and Fendros did eventually have to return to their responsibilities. Rhazii was now old enough that he did not need to be [i]constantly[/i] watched, though they had still left him under the supervision of some of the clan's caregivers, along with many of the other children. Ahnasha decided to go collect him, along with Newt if Janius and Kaleeth were still busy. She wondered what it might be like for Rhazii to see his grandparents, and if it would even have meaning for him. Being raised among a lycan clan, he had family everywhere around him. He may not even recognize what blood relationships are.

Kaleeth's hit had connected, though she had been correct that it was unsettling for her to land it. She had hit much harder than she generally did in practice, and she could tell that she had really hurt him. But, in the midst of a fight, her instincts were driving her to continue on just as much as her empathy wanted her to stop. She did not have much time to think before Janius was pushed back into the ring and their fight resumed. 

Naturally, Kaleeth followed the general rule of protecting her head and blocked both of his blows, but when he attempted a blow to her chest, Kaleeth decided to make something of a sacrifice. Janius' fist connected painfully to her ribs and knocked the breath out of her, but at the same time, she was reaching for his arm. If she could get a good grip on him, he would have a hard time shaking loose.

When Sabine made her way to Gallus' pack's room, she found it empty save for Peiter. He was not sleeping, but even so, it took a few moments before he actually noticed her enter. Sabine had not seen him that day, and from the looks of things, he may have never left his room at all. He was not dressed, and overall had something of a lazy look about him. Most interestingly, he had a half-empty bottle of ale at his side, probably procured the previous day. Peiter had never been one to drink, not without the company of friends, so it was new for him. 

Peiter looked up to Sabine from where he was sitting on his bedroll and slowly began to smile. "Sabine, there you are. I was going to go look for you...eventually. You should join me."
