is not for you or any of the Khans to question or attempt to change
that.тАЭ
The words hurt. Nicholas was scolding her. тАЬIt was never my
intent to erode what you built. I was serving my people.тАЭ
тАЬAs am I. The difference is, I answer to a higher calling.тАЭ
тАЬIlKhan, the options for me, for the Wolverines, are becoming
limited. What do you desire me to do?тАЭ
Nicholas said nothing for a moment, but placed his hand on the
ferroglass of the coffin, over the face of his father. McEvedy was
not sure if it was a loving touch, or if he was covering his fatherтАЩs
face. тАЬI see no hope for the Wolverines going forward. Several
Khans are going to move against you. They will seek to remove
your clan once and for allтАФabsorbing you into their own holdings.
They want the technology you are developing, the hardware that
you have created, your territories, your people.тАЭ

тАЬThat is why you sent The Watch after usтАжyou were conspiring
against us.тАЭ

тАЬI do not conspire,тАЭ he snapped back. тАЬI lead the Clans!тАЭ
McEvedy rubbed her chin in thought. They have already or-
dained our destruction, our absorption, perhaps even something
worse. They will come at us like vultures, picking at our carcasses.
If we are one thing as a people, it is relentless. тАЬIlKhan, you know
that I cannot sit back and do nothing while the other Clans come
at us. I am a leader, and must do what I can to protect my people.
You would expect no less of me.тАЭ
Nicholas lifted his hands from the ferroglas over his fatherтАЩs
corpse. тАЬI know you will, Sarah. In fact, I am counting on it.тАЭ
He was counting on it. A good fight, a bloody contest on the part
