Irving had no intention of allowing the werewolf leader's subordinates to accompany him. He believed their strength was simply too inadequate.
"I'm heading to the other side of Shadow City," Irving said, his tone dark as he addressed the werewolf leader. "According to the clues provided by the elders of the Night Blades, that's where my companions were last seen."
