Chapter 29: The Reckoning
"Old Frost is dead!" Brannon shouted. "I killed him at the narrows!"
The Ridge wolves howled again.
Hester clapped her hands, glowing, the blue stone bright at her throat.
The chief stood up beside the guild master's table.
"The Ridge has its hunter," he said. "Burn his name."
I walked down the middle of the Hall.
Behind me came the old hunter's sled, with Kell on it, pulled by the bull and his team.
Brannon saw me, and his arms came down.
He'd thought I was at the bottom of a ravine with Kell.
I stopped at the guild master's table, took the heartstone out of my shirt, and set it down.
It lit the whole table white.
The guild master stared at it.
"That's his heartstone," he said quietly.
"She cut it out of my kill!" Brannon said. "She followed me up and stole it!"
"Where's the kill?" I said.
"At the narrows."
"Then where's his blood on you?"
He opened his mouth.
The old hunter held out his one hand.
"Give me that tusk, boy."
Brannon didn't move. The bull champion walked over, took it out of his hands and gave it to the old man.
