12. A Shepherd Again

On the tundra today, I found several ailing creatures – two arctic fox and some dozen hare. They were miserable, and I could not let them stay in the wild any longer for fear of their safety. They were too many to carry, so I pocketed the most vulnerable and herded the remainder with my staff. It put me in mind of my shepherding days on the grassy Alfak plains. I could use further assistance should this become commonplace. Perhaps I can persuade the wolves to help.
