Over the year for Willow Ridge, a civil war has started within the ranks. After Skoll breaking pack law by having pups, the prince takes a brief absence, leaving Nicolo to take charge. Angier's health declines and his eyesight is lost and Elettra takes a tumble down the Heights. Morganna takes leadership in her mother's place and views of Leadership collide between Morganna and Nicolo. If things were not hard enough with two leaders butting heads, then the death of Isolde tops the cake. It is the first child to have died from one of the Archer children and the loss takes a hard toll on the entirety of the pack. Under Morganna's leadership, Skoll mocks the rules by breeding again, this time with another new addition to the ranks named Hecate. It is decided to run the woman out of the pack in order to protect Morganna's own children to come, though she leaves before justice can be handed. Finally when it seems like the majority of the pack has accepted Morganna as it's new leader, she leaves, taking a good handful of members with her. They go far north, forming a pack now know as Whitestone Monadnock. Since then, it has seemed the tension and aggression has come to a rest, though only time will tell if the long standing pack will be able to fully recover.
