The patrol Taryn had sent out saw the bear attack the strange wolf and intervened. Working together, they chased the bear off before turning their attention to the wolf. The eldest wolf in the patrol sent the fastest runner back to camp to tell Taryn and the medicine keeper about the attack while the rest of the patrol transformed back and began to asses the damage. Sighing, the oldest gently scooped the wolf up and turned on his heel, heading back to camp.
The wolf flew into camp, flinging dirt and dust everywhere. He skidded to a halt in front of her teepee and turned back, before calling out to her. "Taryn, I need to see you and Elder NOW!" He said, a frantic tone in his voice. "Alright, alright. Calm down!" She pulled back the flap and came out into the evening sun. "I'm coming, take a deep breath." She turned on her heel and headed toward the den of the medicine keeper. "Elder, we need to see you." She said, talking a bit louder than usual.
An elderly lady opened the flap of her tepee and beckoned them in. "Yes, what do you youngsters need?" She asked, her voice slow and shaky. "There was a wolf, who was attacked by a bear. He needs you to heal him." He said, his words coming out in a rush.The old lady nodded her head and stood. "Very well, have them bring him to me once they arrive." And with that, she shooed them out of her home so she could prepare. Just then, the patrol burst into camp, all surrounding the injured wolf. "Take him to the Elder." Taryn said, heading to her tent. The eldest from the patrol gently shook the lone wolf, looking down at him concernedly.
