Thunder held up a paw and the shield maidens nodded. When he approached his youngest son, the guards remained at the grounds’ entrance.
“I wanted to talk with you. In private.”
“Ah.” Thane rubbed his neck. “Think I’ve learned enough for one day, if you don’t mind my saying so.”
Thunder sighed. “You mustn’t disrespect your superiors, Thane. It’s unbecoming of a Greymane prince.” His voice didn’t seem nearly as judgmental now that he was off the throne. “Your brother may have been harsh, to put you back in your place like he did, but it is our way.”
The sun was setting somewhere on the other side of the mountain, and dusk fell quickly in Spire Stonebluffs. A chilling breeze cast through the spire, sending bits of straw from Thane’s dummies flying through the air. Thane shivered, but Thunder showed no discomfort, walking past his son’s cordon and looking up to the nearby Stone Spire. Even in the failing light, one could clearly make out the path leading to the summit where the evil they sought so desperately to contain lay patiently in wait.
“You know why the Iron Guard exists, yes?” Thunder asked.
“To protect the hierarchy. To ensure the strength of the Wolf Clan never falters.” Thane’s response was textbook, learned to the letter from a very young age.
