Bornnan was obviously not native to these parts, and crossly unfamiliar with all of the different undergrowth. There was a look of smugness on his mouth, but instead he was confused. He had lost everything. His home. His life. His family. His sister. Indrui. Bornnan lifted his head sharply, eyes narrowed, as if something had called to him. Indrui, his sister. She had been lost too, though for good, he did not know. Since their northern, arctic pack had scattered, he had lost track of all around him. He was shameful to admit that he had felt fear that day when he was running from the hunters, and tumbling into unfamiliar territory. He had traveled farther south until he had landed in this lush region.
Now, he was alone. Utterly alone. He stood, alone, in the Wildwood, with furious confusion on his handsome, white face.</blockquote>
