Summary
She looked over the ragtag group of injured, bloody, shell-shocked crawlers, really taking the scene in. All of them were still so, so young. Their hardened shells cracked down to their cores.
One of them was staring at her, she noticed. The rest were busy recovering, talking loudly amongst themselves, but that one crawler was standing shock still, his hand against the wall, stiff legs unsteady under him.
He looked human, Milk noted. But his race was primal. Carl was his name. Warlord Carl.
“Milk?” he whispered.
The first meeting, through Milk's eyes.

Summary
As I waited for sleep, my thought strayed to the methods used by the Nazhmorhathveras to hunt the sheleian that ranged on the steppes. No barbarian would have been foolish enough to try to take on a flock; though a sheleis resembled little more than a large stack of poorly cared-for carpets, the adults of a pack would vigorously defend their young. Thick of hide, dense of fur, tusked, and ferocious—the Nazhmorhathveras stalked the steppes in search of a sheleis that had gotten itself separated from the pack. A lone sheleis would flee, in the face of a hunter’s spear, and the hunter would pursue. Not at the desperate pace set by the sheleis; the beast could leave his sight, and still he would track it, at a steady and persistent pace. It might take hours, even a day or more, but eventually the sheleis would collapse from exhaustion, and the hunter would be ready when it did.

Summary
"You mean 'we'll make it,'" Beau said, as an icy feeling crept up her spine. "Right, Deuces? We'll make it out."
"No," he said, and that same soft, grim smile was back. "I meant you."
There was a beat of silence where Beau just breathed.
"What," she said, trying to keep her voice measured even as her thoughts spun out. "Why the fuck do you think I would leave without you?"
"You have to," he said.
"Why?"
"My last question to Melora," Caduceus replied. He looked regretful, almost chagrined.
"What was it?" Beau said, dread creeping up the base of her skull.--------------
Beau and Caduceus are lost beneath the snows of Eisselcross, separated from the group. And time is running out for one of them.- Language:

Summary
Poor Percy just really got the crap beat out of him during the Rimefang battle. Vex feels...more strongly about this than she really should.
