The mountain pass was thick with snow as he truded on along the narrow path. Gripping his fur cloak closer to his body, he shrugged away the piercing wind. He kept his body pressed against the rock wall as he inched his way along. He was agile to be sure, but it was still a long fall and a sudden stop at the end of the ride. Sylus had been taversing these mountains for nearly a month now, moving from cave to cave in search of his target. Still he had found nothing of their whereabouts. However he could not stop the search and turn back, he'd done that once all ready, but that was just from a shortage of food. This is what he had been asked to do though...with all of the troubles taking place on the Emerald Isles...Alais had said they would need to ready a defense on this side of the ward in case her group failed in stopping the Annaran force. He had searched out Rhiannon, gaurdian to Queen Teleperien and her daughter. Through Rhiannon he sent a letter to the queen speaking of the events taking place and of what should be done in preparation in case the worst should come to pass.
He knew immediately what problem faced him when Alais told him what he could do to help. Sure he had some friends and allies...but not enough to take on an army that could best Tass and Alais along with whoever they took with them. Through Teleperien, Xeno would be notified along with his Regulai...but more would be needed. So to the north Sylus looked. He was certain that he could not rely on human help for this task. If you want to defeat monsters....you have to send monsters.
Sylus had come across a nomadic tribe on his journey into the lands of Rhydin; and had noted their tracks on his way back to Kelvar all of those months ago. He hoped that they were still up here and had not moved onto another area yet. He sensed what they were right away. They were like him...shapeshifters. The one thing he didn't know was...were they all wolven like he thought they were? To this he did not have any answers. Pulling his hood up higher, Sylus fought through the wind until he came to a wideer path along the mountainside; here it seemed the wind had lessened. He was no longer in the wind trap that was below him. Not taking any chances though, he kept his hood up and trudged on, still searching.
