Lycanthropus

A storm-wracked night drapes the valley in darkness, and the air crackles with an ancient, primal energy. From the jagged hills a lightning‑splintered doorway opens, releasing forces that stir something feral within the narrator. As the transformation begins, skin gives way to fur and a fierce, blood‑driven howl erupts, echoing across the desolate plain.

The story follows this newly awakened creature as it wrestles with its dual nature—human intellect tangled with an insatiable predatory instinct. Through moonlit forests and shadowed villages, the protagonist confronts both external threats and the inner terror of losing control. Tension builds as the lycanthrope must choose between surrendering to its animal urges or clinging to the remnants of its former self, all while the ominous presence of the old gods looms over the unfolding chase.
