The battle continued on while the mates of the defeated pack leader escaped for their lives. Sauron failed to kill the park leader. He then sent his warriors after the escaped mates with the intention of wiping out the descendants of the former park leader of the sharp tooth pack.
Ragnarok thought to himself in jest, "Fortunately, my father had the good sense to run. He may be weak, but he knows how to escape well enough or I wouldn't be born."
Sauron would have surely caught up to Cuthalin had he chased her himself. Then Ragnarok wouldn't have been born at all. Fortunately, pack leaders aren't meant to do menial tasks like hunting weak targets or hunting in general.
The Hunt for Cuthalin and the other mates was a move born out of anger. Sauron just wanted to punish the pack leader by killing his loved ones. He wasn't going to chase after them himself.
He couldn't chase after them even if he wanted to. His father and his father's mates ran in different directions. Sauron surely couldn't split himself to chase after all of them. So he sent his warriors after them. Even then, it was too much for his mother to bear. Things could have been completely different had Sauron not been preoccupied with hunting his escaped father.
The shaman said after he was done with the story, "So you see. Everything is not as it seems. The dishonorable pack leader was very emotional and very angry. He couldn't let Sauron have the remnants of his pack after what Sauron did. He was dishonorable but Sauron was shameful. I would have probably behaved the same way if I were in his shoes. The loss of a child is a painful thing to a father."
Ragnarok nodded in understanding. Then he looked up the mountain and asked. "Are you really sure you should be saying this in public like this? The pack leader might not like it if he hears."
The shaman laughed again. "What? Are you saying that I should be afraid that Sauron will get angry? I know Sauron very well. I was there when he was born. I gave him his name when he awakened."
"Oh, so you are very close to the pack leader."
"I am close but I am not saying that my familiarity with Sauron will save me from his wrath. I am saying that I know Sauron enough to know that he won't get angry because of what I just did. If he hears us talking about it, he will only laugh in amusement."contemporary romance
"He will laugh?" Ragnarok asked with a strange expression.
"Yes, he will just laugh. Do you know why?"
Ragnarok shook his head in reply.
"It is because Sauron understands that victory and power are above all else. What does reputation mean? What is it worth when you're weak? Can reputation save you or make you stronger? Maybe it might. But one thing is sure, strength is strength and power is power no matter where you get it from or how you got it. He won and now he is stronger for it. His pack expanded to almost double."
"What about the loser? The loser ran away with its tail between its legs. The loser lost everything. Even the refusal to surrender that he did to spit on Sauron didn't affect Sauron much. A pack leader gets most of his or her strength from the Nameless. And you saw what happened today too. More warriors were created because the totem is stronger. The spoils go to the victor and the victor writes history. As for the loser, he promised to return for vengeance. Is that really possible now?"
Ragnarok shook his head. He understands that vengeance is but a wish. It is not a right. Even if it were a right, the world is not obligated to fulfill it for you. No matter the wrong or injustice that you have experienced, you have to bear with it if you are weak.
Strength is required for everything. The loser needs strength to exert vengeance on Sauron but the possibility of it ever happening has fallen low. The pack leader of the sharp tooth pack couldn't beat Sauron when he had a pack. How will he do it now without a pack when Sauron has also become two times stronger? Only luck or a miracle can help the loser change the situation.
Ragnarok agrees with the Outlook of Sauron. The winner takes all while the losers lose everything. Only strength matters. He ate his mother for strength. Things might not have gone well for him had he not eaten his mother. He would have had to crawl slowly across the floor of the tunnel. It would have been very difficult for him to go up the slope of the tunnel with his strength. He ate his mother and he survived. That's all that matters at the end of the day.
"Sauron isn't so bad. He has the potential for greatness. He is just shackled by rules." He thought to himself.
He admires Sauron a little. The pragmatism he has heard about Sauron is something he finds to be a good character. Of course, when compared to Sauron, he is more evil. He and Sauron are not the same.
He would have killed everyone be they Nameless or not if he could get away with it. He would have killed his father if he wanted the position of pack leader instead of waiting for him to get old. Sauron is not bad. But he cannot eat his own mother for power like Ragnarok did. It is because Sauron still cares about the rules of society.
He thought to himself, "Rules are for the weak. They are meant to corral the sheep into a herd. The strong on the other hand stand above rules and the society. Those who allow rules to shackle themselves are still weak. Sauron needs to learn that or he will forever remain weak. The unwillingness to do anything for power will not make him great."
