Thirteen followed his sister into a cave that was located at the base of a mountain.
Shasha told him that aside from her, there were sixteen other Wanderers with her. However, since two of them had died due to the bear attack, only fourteen were left.
Originally, there were thirty of them, but the others decided to join another group of Wanderers, who were located in a valley outside of the forest.
When Thirteen asked his sister why she didn't join that other group, a rare look of disgust appeared on Shasha's face, making the boy arch an eyebrow.
"That other camp is ruled by Kane Stallard," Shasha said. "He wanted me to become his lover, but I refused. Although he didn't do anything to me, he always ordered his subordinates to harass our people, especially when we were hunting in the forest.
"Due to their harassment, many died, forcing the others to join his team because they were afraid that they would be the ones who would be targeted next."
