The Drakhyn moved through the woods slowly, keeping an ever-watchful eye on the Lycans ahead of them and behind them. The Lycans remained in their wolf form. Only one had changed to their Akrhyn form since the Drakhyn had joined them. They had been gathering in the Yukon for several weeks now, and an uneasy alliance with the wild and free packs had been tested more times than they could count.

If the Lycans had their way, the Drakhyn would be the ones left behind while they scouted the region. But the Drakhyn were here to aid them, not hinder them. It didn’t help that there were no female Lycan amongst them. Several Drakhyn had complained that their alliance was already flawed when the Lycan clearly didn’t trust them with their females.

That had been the cause of the first fight.

And the second.

And every fight thereafter.

He didn’t care, they could fight amongst themselves all they wanted. He kept a trail of wagons to the very back of the gathered masses in order to sate appetites of his kin. His most trusted Drakhyn got to taste the samples he provided, but he knew soon that he would have to share some of the appetisers among the many.

He could feel its presence beside him, although it had chosen not to take corporeal form this time. It was merely a darker patch of night in an overcast landscape.

“When do we move south?” an Akrhyn asked him impatiently. “My Lycans grow tired of marching and not fighting.”

He looked at the Lycan before he turned away again and continued, saying nothing.

“Listen, you may be the voice of the one in charge, but we grow impatient.”

He stopped. “The voice of the one in charge?” he questioned. “Am I not the one in charge?”

“You’re a Drakhyn,” the Lycan spat with disgust.

“I am.” He smiled, and then with a clench of his fists, he cast from the power he had been granted, and the Lycan was raised into the air as if being held by his throat. “What are you implying?”

The Lycan spluttered and gasped for air as it dangled in front of him at his mercy. He watched it for a while before he felt the presence stir beside him, and with reluctance, he dropped the insolent Lycan to the ground.

“We scout, as it will not take our enemies long to realise we move against them,” he told the Lycan that lay panting on the ground. “You are needed to go forward. There is a free pack to the north of here, turn them to the cause.”

He continued to walk on, leaving the Lycan lying on the ground, forgotten and humiliated.

That I cannot kill them all, pains me.

The Darkness fluctuated but was silent. He gave a heavy sigh before he turned to look at the faithful behind him. “We stop here. The Lycans have one more search, and then we gather.” His eyes scanned the faces of the true, the believers, the faithful. “We are close, brothers, we will destroy them all.
