Chapter 19

Adira experiences acceptance from the tribe after a successful hunt, realizing she's becoming one of them. She refrains from describing the hunt's details to spare Frey's anxiety. During a feast, Salzo reveals that Dhoron is unhappy due to Adira's success. Despite her popularity, Adira believes it's about the meat, not acceptance. Eremiza officially welcomes Adira and Frey into the tribe.

Adira shocks them by mentioning the Ursa threat and plans to gather information, but Frey refuses to join. Adira's determination to rescue her father conflicts with the tribe's safety. Eremiza warns her against the plan, but Adira chooses her father. After clashing with Dhoron and arguing with Frey, Adira decides to leave for her father, feeling she doesn't belong in the tribe, leading to a bitter end between her and Frey.
