Chased Quote by E.D. Walker

“The swift greyhounds chased him for hours, wearing the wolf down, tiring him out so he would be too weak to give more than a token fight at the end. He remembered this tactic well from when he had been the hunter on the horse… At least I know what happens next.” quote by E.D. Walker
