It was a long time ago that there was a single pack living in the area where two currently are. The pack was quite large, counting up to 30 in members. That was, until on one cold december day a strong and till then healthy adult died. The pack wasn't expecting it and the two shaman's had no idea how or why he died. Nothing happened for a long while after that. Everything was fine. But after about half a year, the beta died. He didn't show any signs of weakness till then either. After four months two more wolves died. No signs of unhealthyness before their death. And then after only one month, a plague outbroke within the pack. It swweped the lands of prey and hunters, taking many wolves with it. Among the others, one of the leader's died as well, leaving the other to try and tame the chaos.
