More thoughts

OK.. so I haven't exactly written as much as I should have lately, but I'm going to try to remedy that. Ideas for the book:

With my bad guys in the book, I'm thinking about making them bad, but not just evil creatures. They are fighting because others in positions of power have told them lies about the human/elf/etc. populations that live across the mountains, or at least have told them that the worst of the civilization is commonplace for all. Humans can be a greedy and violent lot.

Across the mountains in the heartland of the continent, live a race of wolf like humanoids. The are generally peaceful people that live in smallish, wandering tribes. NAME?? This people have their own wars and disputes, but some of them are settled peacefully, others in all out wars. Very proud people. However as in most societies at one point or another, there are a few power hungry leaders whom leading their group is not enough. They start sending raiding parties into the human and elven lands... breaking ancient treaties. First it was gold, metals, livestock ... then they started destroying farms, raiding trading caravans, and so on. They wanted to push back the humans and elves, wanting to reclaim the land for themselves, but the humans and elves were not so easy to push.
