The Dawn Lands are a valley hidden by the mountains known as the Barriers of the Moon which was lost to time. Carol is raised by wolves and became Cave Girl, but after the leader Kattu dies Cave Girl becomes leader of the pack. She was skilled in using a bow, spear and knife and also could speak to animals. She learned how to use weapons from watching the Hairy Men, a group of Neanderthals who lived in the Dawn Lands.
