Book 1: Ice Wolves
Then she finds an open window and makes Anders climb through and sees what it is. When the window locks shut and Anders is trapped inside, Rayna distracts the woman inside by giving her the sausage she stole and Anders escapes.

She's disappointed to find that Anders wasn't able to steal anything and the two head back to Wily Wolf. They promise to take care of each other before falling asleep.The next morning they head to the docks where the Trail of the Staff takes place. They buy some roasted nuts before starting their mission to pick-pocket the new omers and people watching the Trail. Anders nearly tries to pick-pocket someone but Rayna warns him away as her pockets have zips, an artifact that will alert everyone to their schemes. After pick-pocketing for a while Anders is caught by a man and Rayna saves him by lying and saying they were trying to get to the dais.

The man lets Anders go and Rayna leads him to the dais, when Sigrid asks her why she should be tested Rayna makes up the name, Estrid Larsen, saying her grandmother (Ida Larsen) was a wolf. Sigrid is skeptical as she's never heard of Ida Larsen but lets Rayna try anyway.

When she touches the staff she ends up turning into a Scorch Dragon instead of an Ice Wolf. The wolves panic and so does Rayna who flies away.
