Stars glittering in the black sky
The crescent moon glowing with an almost pure light
Children sleeping soundly
Owls hooting
The village below dark with sleep
Two sentries keeping watch
"Is it time?" My apprentice questions under his breath. 
My eyes glow silver to match the night
I keep quiet
Not uttering a sound
Our dragons behind us
Barely breathing to keep from detection
A few moments of quiet
I nod
We mount our frozen dragons 
They swiftly stretch
Mine...

Ice stings my bare feet
Winter cools my breathe
My body motionless
Waiting for the signal to strike
The village down below
Little children sticking close
Men trying to find food
Woman trying to keep warm
My frozen heart feeling no guilt
For what's to come
I'm putting them out of their misery
Stealing their medicines, food supplies, and furs for my family
For my village to survive
My war wolf at my side, muzzled and chained until it's time ...
