Meanwhile, an infectious flu had broken out within the Snow Wolf Clan. Half of the clan's males had already collapsed, and almost all of the young females had fallen ill with fevers. The clan's doctor was run off his feet all day, exhausting every possible method but still unable to find a cure.
Left with no other choice, the Snow Wolf Clan Leader, Soro, gathered several of the tribe's elders for a discussion to find a solution. As Soro's most highly regarded son, Loki naturally took part as well.
Sitting beside Soro, he offered his suggestion. "Father, if you ask me, the fact that they fell ill now just proves their physical weakness. We're better off without frail males. We should just throw them out to fend for themselves."
A shrewd glint flashed in Loki's eyes. Among those sick males were his two older brothers. As long as they were driven out of the tribe, the position of Clan Leader would undoubtedly be his.
