Perrin is with Mat and Hurin as they search for the Horn of Valere. Fain has passed through the village they are visiting but no Trollocs. As they decide to leave the town, Perrin sees Whitecloaks entering. After riding for a while, Perrin asks the wolves to check if they are being pursued. The wolves see more Whitecloaks, but none of them moving the direction of Perrin. They decide to follow the trail a bit more before returning to Ingtar.
