You often heard stories of strange happenings in the wilderness beyond the edge of the forest. Tales told in hushed tones by old women around the fire spoke of mysterious creatures and divine beings who roamed the earth, hidden from the eyes of the unworthy.

You always dismissed these stories as mere superstition. That is, until the day you ventured too far into the woods and encountered the creature you had only heard about in whispers: a direwolf.

The underbrush ahead of you had rustled, and a large shadow appeared on the trail, a massive wolf, its fur as dark as the night sky, eyes gleaming like silver in the fading light. Its aura radiated a wild, untamed power.
