The trip to the small hunting town lasted a little over an hour and quickly became boring as they left the city. Trees and mountains quickly replaced the houses and stores, as far as the eye could see, and became monotonous.
Alex and Kary were barely talking, as the latter was already lost in her thoughts. She was trying to figure out a good way to contain an attack from a horde of wolves in an undefendable small town.
She also had to consider all the houses between the horde and the town and how they would temporarily get these most likely old-timers to move out of their homes for safety concerns.
Old people were almost always stubborn, and they would need a compelling excuse to have them abandon their houses for the duration of this hunt. If they couldn't convince them, they risked having them die or expose a truth that should stay hidden for a bit longer.
Either option wasn't good for them.
