Kalameshli Takes Iron

Kalameshli, with the hunter's name of Takes Iron is an old priest of the Wolf, given his name due to his mastery of the Wolf's magic of making iron. He was born to the tribe of the Winter Runners and proud to be so, being a longtime friend of the now-deceased Akrit Stone River, past chief of the tribe. He is the father of Maniye Many Tracks, which was unknown by her and others until he decided to reveal it to his daughter near the end of the first book.
