From uncharted lands...you arrive; bringing in a foreign scent undesired by the land's natives. Although a stranger to all, it is clear to see that you pose no threat as you’re anxious, skittish, and seem to yearn for a sense of purpose amidst these unforgiving lands. At this point, you are almost skin and bones at this point; there is no a way a lonesome traveler such as yourself could stir up trouble. You have been traveling for quite some time now, attempting to salvage what is left of your insignificant being. Alas, you find yourself immersed in a dense forest.
Almost instantly...Mother Nature is quick to greet you with gentle winds. The breeze combs through your tangled locks and instantly, you fell renewed. Allowing her to envelope you in a warm embrace, it is almost as if she entices you to follow her. Curious, you follow her lead. Thus, padding through the forest, the sound of crisp leaves crunching beneath your paws, you are almost astounded by the plethora of vegetation present within this area. The overgrowth was tall, shielding the forest floor from the sun’s intense rays. The undergrowth, as diverse as it was, offered sufficient areas to hide. Blinded by Mother Nature’s beauty and the sounds of leaves rustling, you did not notice the silence in the air.
The air was silent...and the atmosphere was almost tense. In the distance, loud roars could be heard accompanied by aggressive barking and shuffling. Your instincts told you to leave the area immediately, however, it seemed as though Mother Nature was guiding you towards the danger. Hesitant at first, you complied with the forest, allowing Her to lead you to the commotion. With every step you take, the sounds begin to grow more audible—until eventually—it becomes clear as to what is happening. Peering through the bushes...
...you are instantly captivated by the scene before you. The only thing you can do is gape in awe.
Before you...is a cohort of wolves. However, not just any kind of wolf, but they are of the same species of you. With great strength and a powerful sense of kinship, they relentlessly fight the beasts before them. They move in sync, fight in sync, and breathe in sync. Their movements are so coordinated that within the following seconds, you watch as they bring down the beast.
“Amazing…” You breathe out, breaking a twig as you take a step forward.
Instantly, all eyes are on you. Your heart begins to race and don’t stay another second to witness their reactions first hand. Racing through the forests, you attempt to make your way out of the dense thicket. However, Mother Nature sends Her winds against you as if telling you to go the other way. You can’t. You’ll die if you do. Thus, you ignore Her call. Looking back, you check to see if the cohort decided to follow you. Of course, they did, as nothing seemed to escape from them unscathed.
You are caught...you are backed against the wall and are overwhelmed by their numbers. With adrenaline rushing through your veins, your breathing has increased by double. With your tail tightly tucked between your legs, you seem cower lower and lower to the ground with each step they take towards you. You are afraid, you fear for what’s to come, and you are anxious of the many possibilities. Once again, things are out of your control. Then, when they appeared ready to launch at you, they parted ways.
At that very moment, the leader of the cohort approaches from the depths of the forest.
He approaches you...standing tall and firm. This male was dominant clearly in both appearance and presentation. Thus, you cowered more, ears flattening against your head.
“A-are you the leader?” You spoke out first to break the silence.
“Shut your mouth…” he seethed, “you will not insult my leader by calling me such, as I am not fit for such a position. Who are you?” He was a rancorous brute and it showed in his speech and mannerisms.
“A mere traveler, sir. I-“ he snaps at your face earning a loud yelp from you. He cuts you off.
“Speak up, boy.” He bares his fangs at you once more.
“I’m a mere traveler, sir!” You spoke louder, yet you were clearly still passive when delivering your speech. “I come from lands far from here.”
“Far from here? Tell me of it.” His tone eases up a bit.
“I-I cannot say, as-“
“And why can’t you speak of it?” With his massive paw, he knocks you to the ground. Releasing another yelp, you whimper in pain as you attempt to avoid eye contact with the male.
“I cannot say!” You cried out, “The lands where I come from no longer exist. They are tarnished. Diminished to nothing…” Your voice decrescendo’d and became somber. The male, after hearing your somber words, released his hold on you.
“Aye, so you come seeking sanctuary then?” You did not speak, but nodded in acknowledgement. Leaning forward, he grabbed you by the nape. Instantly you tensed up. However, death did not come. Instead, the male had assisted you to your feet. Visibly confused, you cocked your head.
The rancorous male...seemed to contemplate for a few minutes; looking over to his followers before back to you. Releasing a heavy sigh, brows furrowed, he finally spoke to you.
“You’ll have to excuse my behavior then. These lands are unforgiving, it is against our law to allow trespassers leave unscathed.” The male had calmed down and signaled to his followers to begin moving out. You watched as one by one they begin to disappear into the depths of the forest. When most had left, the male himself began to take his leave. You were confused. They were going to let you go…and just like that?
“Don’t make me wait. Are you coming?” The male called back, peaking over his shoulder to look you dead in the eye.
“Me? Come with you?” You took a step forward gasping disbelief.
“You’re one of us,” he was gesturing at you, alluding to your physical form. Yes, you of the same species as them. “During these times of uncertainty, it’s best to stick together.”
“Y-yeah!” You called you, rushing to his side with a smile on your face as he lead you into the depths of the forest.
