The two approached the house.  It was small, but looked homely.  Behind the house were rows of crops, and livestock tied up for the night in a pen.  Smoke came from the chimney, and Chelseaa could smell cooking in the air.<br/><br/>Approaching the door, Marina knocked.  At first there was no response.  She knocked again, and then a voice demanded, "Who are you?  Who's there?"  The voice was fearful as she heard movement inside the house.  Outside, the first stars were coming out, and the wolf howled again, seemingly answered by the hoot of an owl.
