How much energy they put into harming one another. How little into saving. Would it ever change? What would it take to make it change? He thought of Luxa's hand pressed into Ripred's paw.

If you had hope, maybe you could find the way to make things change. Because if you thought about it, there were so many reasons to try.”",
