Dove helped Rex to the woodland farm, before collapsing on the ground with him. She was not injured herself, only weak from letting the wolf lean on her while walking here. She let out a weak howl for help. She had known humans before, and she knew that they could be kind at times.

Rex had eaten the meat the Risen had poisoned. It was already acting on his nervous system. He had been coughing up blood and his abdomen hurt greatly. He thought that this would be the end.
