Book 2 : Chapter 8

"On that hilltop, you will find an elderly man with a carved wooden staff. My pack refers to him as the Oracle and he has been able to help in many of our times of need. He may know how to help you too," she said gesturing to the peak of an inclination in the relatively flat land about a mile away. "Good luck on your quest," she added with what appeared to be almost a smile and in a much less solemn tone.

"Thank you Alpha..." I began before realizing I didn't even know her name.

"Silvia. Alpha Silvia," she answered.

I nodded before she left Max and me to make our way to the so-called 'Oracle'.

"She was nice," I commented.

"If creepy and grave is your idea of nice..."

I elbowed him in the stomach.

"She didn't hand us into Leonardo and she has shown us to someone that can help us. You ought to be more thankful," I said.
