The sacrifice of Teir did not go as the Wolfriders thought. None of the monsters was interested in him, they all went after Dewshine and her wolf. Dewshine barely made it back to safety at Howling Rock, and Teir was taken by the monster leader and Winnowill's mind powers. The monster leader is using Teirs powers against the Wolfriders and all the monsters are now attacking Howling Rock. There is no safe space for the Wolfriders, they are outnumbered and can't fight off all the monsters. The only way to save everyone is for Leetah to kill the monster leader. When the monster leader dies, all the other monsters surrounding Howling Rock die too.  When Leetah killed the monster leader Teirs mind was still connected to him and Winnowill. His mind is badly injured because of this. He needs healing, but Leetah is exhausted from all the healing she has already done and she needs some rest, Teir has to wait, after all his life is not in danger. When Ember tries to send to Teir his mind is silent, like in death. An elf's mind is never silent like this as long as they are alive. When Teir wakes up, Ember gives him the most impossible ultimatum. He can choose not to be healed and get his mind and powers back, but be able to stay with the Wolfriders. Or Leetah can heal him, but then he has to leave.  Suddenly the palace appears in front of Howling Rock, the war is won and they are all reunited. Teir disappears into the darkness after gifting Ember his necklace.  If you want to read these issues yourself before you listen to the episode, you can read Elfquest for free at elfquest.com To support this podcast go to buymeacoffe.com where you can buy us a coffee or ten!
