Cronache della Sindone:

Join You By Your Fire?

Notes by Xamot

Tuesday, December 27th, 1994

I lectured Zachariah on matters of philosophy and of ethics, and offered the perspective of the path of bones. He took it quite well - I was eloquent and pointed with my words, and he seems to see me in a more positive light now than before, thanks to my insights. Before we could continue to speak, however, Tala smelled lupines about. 

The lupines, who were revealed to be of a pack called the black spiral dancers, had apparently impersonated a separate pack of lupines who were allies of the sisterhood. We learned that these black spiral dancers had massacred the allied lupines (as if there could be such a thing), and they attacked. There were two of them, but they were somehow weak. With the combined help of the coterie and the remaining members of the sisterhood, the two were felled. I do not believe the two were slain, however. Either way, we fled long before we would have to find out.
