In Wolf's Rain season 1 episode 4, titled "Scars in the Wasteland," the focus shifts towards the character of Tsume, one of the four wolf protagonists. We begin with Tsume and Toboe standing atop a high-rise building, the latter almost jumping off in excitement. Tsume reprimands Toboe for his carelessness and tells him that he needs to stay more alert out in the world. They then see a pack of wolves in the distance and decide to follow them.

As they pursue the wolves, Tsume shares some of his backstory with Toboe. He reveals that he used to be part of a different pack, one that was more aggressive and violent. It's a secret that he has kept hidden from the other wolves, including their leader, Kiba. After some quick and stealthy maneuvering, Tsume and Toboe manage to catch up to the pack, which leads them to a massive wasteland.

In the wasteland, they come across a city that is mostly destroyed, its ruins serving as a haunting reminder of what once was. Tsume is cautious and apprehensive, especially since he knows that humans often patrol the wasteland, looking for wolves to kill. Toboe, being the young and naive wolf that he is, sees the opportunity to explore and ignores Tsume's warnings.

Meanwhile, Kiba has his own run-in with a group of humans in the same wasteland. He is forced to evade them and falls into a pit, getting seriously injured in the process. Hige and Blue, the other two wolves, catch up to Kiba in time to save him and tend to his wounds. It's a tense moment for the group, as Kiba's injuries could prevent them from continuing their journey to find Paradise.

Back with Tsume and Toboe, they eventually stumble upon a group of humans who are about to execute a wolf they have captured. Tsume hesitates at first, but ultimately decides to intervene and save the wolf's life. It's a risky move, but one that is ultimately successful. As they flee from the humans, Tsume acknowledges that he's not as tough as he used to be, but he's learned that there is a difference between being strong and being savage.

The episode ends with Kiba finally recovering from his injuries and the group continuing their journey in search of Paradise. Tsume now carries a new scar, a physical reminder of the danger and realities of the outside world. The episode explores the themes of trust, loyalty, and the consequences of one's actions in a world that is hostile and unforgiving. It's a captivating episode that dives deeper into the characters and their motivations, leaving room for more development and growth in the future.
