The victory in the northern woods gave the pack a renewed sense of purpose, but Marinetta knew that they had only scratched the surface of Lysander's dark plans. They had wounded him, but he was still a formidable threat. The pack couldn't afford to rest on their laurels; they needed to keep pushing forward.
Back at camp, the atmosphere was a mix of exhaustion and cautious optimism. Marinetta and Harley convened another strategy meeting with their key leaders to discuss their next steps.
"We've dealt a significant blow to Lysander, but he's still out there," Marinetta began, her voice steady. "We need more information about his operations and any remaining strongholds. We can't let him regroup and strike back."
Aislinn nodded in agreement. "There might be other allies out there who are also fighting against Lysander. If we can find them, we could form a stronger coalition and increase our chances of defeating him."
