A New Chieftess -- 11/1/02
Ever since Gentlerock--the son of Dart, who has been leading the jackwolf-riders of Sorrow's End in his father's place--went missing, his Recognized Snowstorm has filled in for him as the chieftain of the village hunters. But Snowstorm has her own life burdens to bear and can no longer function in that role, and so she calls a Howl of the jackwolf-riders to yield the chieftaincy to Rosewind. Some take it well, but others, like Snowstorm's little son Sandstorm, do not....

The Cry in the Night -- 12/27/02
In Sorrow's End, once more reaching out to Ree from his wrapstuff prison despite being under guard by several Lostholters, Doreel manages to rouse enough to be driven into deep pain by his memories--and his expression of them results in a sending cry that rouses the Sun Village, brings Djhala running and ordering that Doreel's cocoon be moved, and requires Skywise to knock Ree out before she can lash out at random with the fledgling magic Ynderra has sensed within her.
