"There's a man in a position of power who deserves it not. He's an up-jumped wolf pup who has little spine and less wits, unfit to lead. Should someone gift me with a new wolf-skin cloak, I'd certainly be grateful."
He paused to take a sip of his cream-clouded tea. "But I'm a man of the North, Hugh of Oldstones. It seems to me a wolf should sit on it's throne, but a rightly wolf, one raised with wits and willpower, and with strength. I wouldn't dream of denying this wolf a pup of his own. After the wolf proves he's not as cockless as he is spineless, well then I'd gladly sleep a little warmer at night."
