Prologue

Shiro, Colin's First Comrade, had his eyes closed, as if enjoying the cold of the Eternal Winter continent when May arrived at the Inn.

"Colin." She found him immediately. May had dyed her hair red, and colored her eyes to match. She even wore a red leather suit, with some white furs on the front and shoulders. Her mom, Scarlet, loved red, Colin remembered.

"May." Colin waved as she joined him in the front part of the inn, a sort of café. He handed her the second mug on the table. "Hot cocoa?"

"Thanks." May took it, clinked it with Colin's mug of cocoa and took a nice long gulp.

A white wolfcat came in with May and greeted Shiro nose to nose.

{Another white wolfcat! It's the first time I've seen one other than Shiro!}

Colin grinned. Now he knew where Shiro's kind came from. This was practically Shiro's homeland.

He turned to May. "Where did you get your white wolfcat?"

"{My} white wolfcat?" May blinked in amazement. "I thought those two were with you."

"One is." Colin said. "I thought the other one was yours."

"No." May said. "You're the only one I know who's been able to Tame one."

At that moment, the other white wolfcat bounded out the door, and Shiro dashed after her.

{Her?!} Colin stared. The sense of that white wolfcat was quite clear. It was a 'she'.

"Shiro!" he gasped, but already it was too late.

That female white wolfcat, and Shiro, were gone.
