Willowy Whisper
“Jake's fury rose and nearly choked him. He pushed the words through barred teeth, “I'm afraid I can't agree with you, Marshal.” He headed towards the door. “And if I have to fight this whole town, I'll do it.”
― Willowy Whisper, The Pursued

Rick Yancey
“Outiko is not hunted; Outiko hunts, the ogimaa had said. You do not call Outiko. Outiko calls you.”
― Rick Yancey, The Curse of the Wendigo
