Dawn broke bloody over the river plains. Magnus had launched his main assault under the cover of pre-dawn mist, thousands of northern wolves pouring across the central ford in a snarling tide. The triumvirate's centre held under Kael's direct command, his massive black wolf form a terror on the battlefield, tearing through enemy lines with savage precision.
Elowen's left flank stabilized with the arrival of Sera's eastern reinforcements, their disciplined charges relieving pressure and allowing Theron's shadow teams to slip behind northern lines for devastating raids.
Seren fought beside her mates in controlled bursts, shifting between human and wolf form as Kael had taught her. Her smaller dark wolf was fast and agile, darting into hamstring enemies before retreating behind the heavier lines. In human shape, her enhanced strength let her wield a light blade with lethal speed. The bond kept her anchored.
