Date: TC1853.07.28 — Afternoon through Night
Location: Seven Peaks — Beast Pavilion, Spirit Garden, Verdant Spire
While swords chose wielders on the mountain, something entirely different was happening at the Beast Pavilion.
Aria Stormwind had been running on minimal sleep for two days. Forty-three awakened spirit beasts—more arriving every hour—and not nearly enough space, food, or personnel to handle them all. The temporary structures Marcus had helped erect were already straining under the load.
"I need more raw meat," she called to her assistant. "And someone needs to explain to those wolves that they can't just hunt the rabbits—the rabbits are also awakened spirit beasts now!"
The wolves in question sat at the edge of the pavilion, looking distinctly unimpressed by this restriction. One of them met Aria's eyes and projected an image: wolves eating rabbits, as nature intended.
