Women of Power

There exists a set of myths and prophesies known as the Wolf's Codex-the Okami Kōdekkusu, probably the only written history of the shifter species. It comes from the before times, it's said. Lost for a millennia, maybe more, most people dismiss it as a myth itself. But some things are known. In an oral culture like the shifters, stories have been passed down from storyteller to storyteller. The Codex is supposed to have predicted a third way to come for shifters. First way-Shifter warlords led troops of shifters into battle for land and resources. Women of power were forced to serve, channeling their power at the warlords command. Second way-In current times, power resides with the Alpha, and a Council of Alphas mediates disputes without warfare, making the top Alphas very powerful indeed with no one to check their abuses. And the third way. No one knows what is meant by that-neither those who fear it and are willing to destroy the Hat Island pack to stop it, nor those who want to see it come. But they all seem to think Abby Stafford might be the one to lead them there. The Okami Kōdekkusu may have some answers. And now, one man might know where it is. The race is on.
