Lady rainbow wing-
Wolvern stood high on the crest of the snow-covered hill
quite some distance from Tegraine's ice castle. The ruff on
his neck moved in the wind that howled across the barren
land. His great golden eyes never blinked as he stared at
the moving figure many miles away from him. It was human,
he knew. He had been watching it for some time. When the 
massive white wolf had first discovered it, there had been
many other humans with it. Now it struggled alone against
the fury of the winds.

Darkness blanketed the wasteland, and with the dark the
winds ceased their howling. A pale glimmer of fire marked
the place where the human had stopped. Wolvern crept
closer, making not a sound. He watched the man shiver in
misery as he held trembling hands to the feeble blaze. After
awhile, the human wrapped himself in many blankets of
hides and lay down beside the fire. When Wolvern knew
the human slept, he stealthily moved to its side and lay
against it. Through the night, the wolf shared his warmth
with Prince Padraic. When morning came, he was gone.
