Lupoves

A Snow-White Death Sentence

A wolf
Cloaked in white silk
Face smooth as porcelain
Deadly moonlight shining off of
Black fangs.
-Unknown
  This section isn't a fun part. Think of this page as a warning. If you are ever traveling through the Frostfang Mountains, even briefly, remember this.   Beware the wolves.   Beware their song.   And if you ever, ever hear dragging chains, run for your life.     Their song means a hunt is about to begin. Snuff out any candles, it hates those. Or light them, it might stay away. Void creatures have strange behaviors around fire.
Start navigating your way out of the forest. Quickly, but not too loud. It can hear you if you make too much of a racket. These hunts can last hours, so don't exhaust yourself and just find a way out as quietly as you can.
If you think you saw grey fur, it may just be a normal wolf. Grey, black, and white? That's the monster. Run and hide.
Last thing. If you hear the chains, you're practically dead. Run, and don't look back.   Got all that? Ok. Good luck out there.

Delightfully creepy. I think the poem is a nice touch.

Check out Natural Magic : a coming of age fantasy novel, because life is hard enough when you're fourteen, even without saving the world. Or listen to it in podcast form .

I'm glad you think so! I'm not very experienced in writing creepier things so this was a sort of trial run for me. I'm really happy with how it came out! :D
