Crog Skull-splitter...new chief of the Broken-bone tribe.  Yeah, I knew the clever bastard.  I'd followed him into battle on the day he became the new boss.  He'd grabbed me by the back of my armor and nearly yanked me off my feet when I'd tried to charge up the hill during the opening fight with that White Haired Man leading the rest of the Meat.

Crog Skull-splitter glanced up from the campfire as the Chieftain and his cronies began moving through the clan, kicking and cursing them to their feet.  Crog managed to get up and hustle into position before they reached him and move to where they were herding the gathered warriors.

 Aunt Carri is back.  Finally!  The first I knew of it was when Karlie almost threw a plate of food she was carrying and dashed toward the door. I recognised the voice responding to Karlie's excited chatter immediately and confess that I too, felt an immediate sense of relief.
