The Wolfe
“Jordan sat with her husband, her eyes widening at the sight of mighty Northwood. The fortress sat silhouetted against a black, stormy sky, looking even more foreboding than she could ever remember and belying the true warmth of the castle’s interior. But it was the outer wall she saw, only half repaired, and the complete desolate terrain surrounding her that made the fortress appear so utterly raped. Even the trees that shielded the small lake she loved so well were barren and dead, and the lak...e was a mucky bog.
Yet in spite of the appearance, she could not imagine that returning to Langton after all this time would be any sweeter.
She was glad to be home and her thoughts immediately turned to her cousin.
She was shocked at the sight of the outer bailey. There were few peasants trying to rebuild. The majority of the outer buildings were destroyed as well as the outer village. Her stomach twisted with the misery of their plight.
