Dhabihu raised his head to see the image of Maisha approach him. Maisha gazed at the old wolf. "Dhabihu," she said. "I understand that you have just had three pups."
"Yes, the mother had just recently been killed by a Nite hunting party. I'm all they have left."
"I am sorry for your loss but I have great news. The middle one there, Mlinzi, will be of great importance to the Moonstar when she comes. Make sure that you protect her."
Dhabihu nodded. "Thank you for visiting, Maisha."
