EAMON For me, the first sign of Claiming Season was never the heat. It was anticipation. The waiting. The way everybody suddenly starts acting like an enjoyable natural disaster is approaching. Drink water. Get rest. Stay hydrated. Stay indoors. Avoid stress if you are single. Be good. As if any of those things have ever stopped wolves from losing their minds once the moon decides it's time. Personally? I think the Moon Goddess is overrated. Most wolves would probably call that blasphemy. Unfortunately, I don't care. They say she's generous. Compassionate. A protector. Meanwhile, every year she turns an entire kingdom into emotionally unstable lustful lunatics and somehow we're all supposed to be grateful about it. The history behind Claiming Season is supposedly noble.
