The enemy came in strong and fast. Hybrids, bears, and ferals all attacking at various points along the defensive line. They threw themselves at the forces of Winter with reckless abandon.
Across the line, battles raged in small groups.
The Summer soldiers sent to guard the refugees had spread themselves across the line. Shifting into their wolves, they could give orders through their howls across the distance between themselves.
In this way, they could primarily secure the outer edges of the line and focus the enemy toward the center. Here the majority of the defensive forces were led by Axel.
With their more aggressive tactics, the Frostbite wolves shot forward from the rest, explicitly targeting the feral wolves. Axel had given them this assignment knowing that the feral would be the least problematic of their enemies. If Frostbite could thin the numbers, it allowed the rest of the defensive to focus on the larger targets.
