A Fissure in Rovero

On the other side of the city, far away from Avarice, the man Kino feared was riding atop a giant wolf. It was the mount that Joe had, and since Arthur couldn't teleport near a fissure, the two had to ride it and go to Mountain Range Rovero.

"I missed this feeling," said Arthur to the bartender, who laughed and asked his mount to go faster. "So, you say you could hear Kira's howls?"

"Every night of the full moon," said Joe. "I would visit the forest every two weeks to find him, but there is usually nothing there. Then, I found a fissure there the night before Avarice was broken through."

"What about the other person you mentioned, Alexie," said Arthur, feigning ignorance. "You said there was an incident with Kira."
