Just after he got up, Wolf sensed a large body of magic that was not a Conduit Line. This he could tell because the Conduit Lines magic is constantly changing in power while still staying on the same exact course. Without thinking, Wolf began to walk towards the large mass of magic energy, but on his way there he ran into an injured dragon, who was in the early parts of the Wise stage of life. "Can I help you?" Wolf asked the dragon who was the size of two small houses. "No, but you can listen to, and head my words little beast. We are all just pieces in a game played by those above us, some players are mortal and others are not, but no matter what we do, or what we seek, we are all still just pieces of the game. A good player can cause a war, a great player can cause piece, a grand player can cause cataclysm and recovery, while all still profit. This game is not about you, or me, or any who think they control their own lives, we are all guided into place by the players of the game, and sometimes a square, or a piece, or a hand must be lost to win. We are also cards, used to control the fates and paths of others. We all are indirectly used to control each other by helping all to live in ignorance. This is my wisdom little beast." The dragon stated with his last breath. 'Thank you for the wisdom.' Wolf said with a bow of respect as the dragon closed his eyes for good. Now Wolf headed for the great magical disturbance.
