“We wolves will forever be in this land, for our spirits run heavy in this place. We are made of the very earth of this land.
Our spirits are the moon over the lake, of the vapor of the breaths when we run hard through fields on cold fall nights with the stars all above and around us and shining off the perfect calm of the water. Our spirit is when we are tracking deer on cold winter days, of the chase and the precise timing of the kill, and then sleeping curled together for warmth in deep snow, mouths covered in fresh, dried blood from our feasting. Our spirit is of the dark and wind and perfect stillness before a summer storm and the sounds of slow, rolling thunder off the lake, echoing through the trees. Our spirit is the smell of wet grass and wildflowers, and all the bright colors of the land and water and sky.”

“Wolves are the shadow dance partners of humans. The pair cannot exist without the other. We are the same and opposite, yin and yang, shadow and light. Ours is an intricate relationship.”
