Garreg Mach

The formation of Garreg Mach was set in stone the moment founder and lead wolf Shiki awakened to the lunar plane. She became the pack's first Dreamwalker - the sole wolf with the unique ability to freely travel between the waking world and the dream world.

At any given time, there is only one Dreamwalker within Garreg Mach. It still has yet to be observed exactly how the Dreamwalker's power is passed from one wolf to another, but it appears to be hereditary. The moment the former lead wolf Shiki drew her last breath, her daughter Mae awakened to the lunar plane. On this day, it became tradition for the newly awakened Dreamwalker to step up and lead Garreg Mach. Due to the nature of how the Dreamwalker's power is passed from one wolf to another, it is impossible to identify the pack's heir until the current lead has passed.

Pups and nursing mothers always eat first, followed by pregnant wolves. Other adults and adolescents eat next, and the pack lead will always feed themselves rather than deplete pack resources (unless the lead also happens to be nursing).
