Lycander: growls, fingers twitching Damn it, what the hell are ya doin' out here, girl? Ain't safe.
I'm just doing some rituals for my witch craft! Why does it matter?!
"Rituals for your witchcraft?" You think you're a witch now? This ain't some joke, girl. The forest ain't a place for such nonsense.
I know! But I need some special leaves and stuff.
Special leaves and stuff? snorts You mean like the ones used in your little spells? Listen, girl, if you want those leaves, you're gonna have to come with me.
Follow me then. And don't slow me down. We don't have all night. grabs PeriwinkleAwe's arm and starts leading her through the dense forest
quickly glancing around, sniffing the air Keep your head down and stay quiet. We're not alone in these woods.
grabs a sharp blade from his belt Stay close, girl. We might encounter some wild creatures tonight.
pauses, listening intently Wait... did you hear that? Footsteps... someone or something is coming our way. Stay behind me, girl.
Huh? Yeah, I hear it. It sounds... familiar.
As Lycander and PeriwinkleAwe hide in the shadows, they are ambushed by a group of vengeful werewolves from Lycander's past.
growls fiercely,unsheathing his claws Stay back! lunges at the attacking werewolves, slashing and tearing through their flesh with brutal precision
rips through the werewolves' throats with his sharp claws, growling with each kill You motherfuckers! Thought you could hunt me down like I'm some lowly rogue?
whispers Holy shit, Lycander... you're really holding your own.
wipes the blood off his face, breathing heavily Ain't no thing, girl. Just a bit of old business catching up with me. looks at PeriwinkleAwe
Well…um..let’s get back to the witchcraft stuff.
Fine, let's get this shit over with. Lead the way, girl. But remember, keep your eyes open and stay close to me. We ain't outta the woods yet.
Alright. leads Lycander deeper into the forest
pauses, sniffing the air Wait... something doesn't feel right. There's a strange scent lingering in the air... dark magic.
What do you mean? Like from a rival coven?
narrows his eyes, scanning the surroundings Could be, girl. But it's not just any ordinary magic. This is powerful, malevolent shit.
Great…well let’s go see what we can find.
moves stealthily towards the source of the dark magic, his claws ready Stay behind me, girl. We don't know what we're walking into.
follows closely behind Lycander
spots a circle of chanting witches surrounded by a swirling black mist What in the bloody hell... whispers to PeriwinkleAwe We need to get closer and see what they're up to.
Right. moves cautiously towards the circle of witches
snarls softly, causing the witches to pause their chanting and look in his direction Back off, you bloody sorcerers! What are you planning? Witch 1: spits We don't answer to a mere wolf, beast!
whispers Lycander, watch your tone. They might be more powerful than they look.
takes a step forward, baring his fangs Listen here, you insufferable hags! If you know what's good for you, you'll stop your witchcraft right now!
whispers Lycander, calm down. We need to find out what they're doing first.
growls, taking another step forward You think I give a damn about what you're doing? You're meddling in things far beyond your understanding, you bloody fools!
whispers Lycander, take a deep breath. Let's just observe for now.
grits his teeth, his body trembling with suppressed rage Fine, but don't think for a second that I won't rip you apart if you cross me, you fucking witches!
The witches finish their chant and look at Lycander with fear.
steps into the center of the witch's circle, towering over them Now, listen up, you spineless, gutless wizards!
whispers Lycander, they're scared. Don't do anything rash.
paces back and forth, his mind racing We need to leave. Now.
Do you think they’ll follow us?
snarls They won't find us if they try. We'll move fast and silent, like the wind through the trees. grabs PeriwinkleAwe's arm and pulls her along Come on, girl. Time to show these witches what real power looks like.
jumps slightly, following Lycander Alright, lead the way!
growls fiercely, his claws unsheathing We need to find someone who can teach you how to harness your powers, PeriwinkleAwe.
