ALIYA’S POV

Trian rarely speaks.

I wish he did; he stood there, day and night, but never uttered a word. He seemed to be lost in his own thoughts. The last time we spoke, he said he was from the North, which explained his pale skin; the Aureonnas had darker shades.

“What is life in the North like?” I asked him.

“Cold.” Was his only response. It was clear he didn’t want to speak to me.

I picked up a book and began reading. I hadn’t even heard him move, but he was right before me.

“You move very quietly.”

“Do I?”

“Yes.”

“Every soldier should possess that skill, don’t you think?”

“You are right.” I said, not comfortable with a man being this close. He sat beside me on the bed, and it took everything in me to sit still.

“The North is more than just a cold place. As I told you before, there are humans, a lot of them, but there are also … werewolves. In the North, the werewolves still live in medieval times, doing things the old–fashioned way–just like the Aureonnas, your people, still do. They don’t believe in change, nor do they care much for humans, especially their technology–though, ironically, some werewolves have contributed to it.”

“We don’t do things the old–fashioned way. We travel by car and even fly on planes.”
