You are the TEMPLAR, a holy knight sent to clear the frontier of monsters and heresy!

"Sol, of course one of you has to almost get themselves killed when I'm not around." Naru grumbles as she channels healing magic into Niko's broken arm. "This one's gonna be an all nighter for sure."

"Well it's a good thing the village is letting us stay for free, right?" Nino says happily.

"A silver lining, for sure." Naru sighs. "And you got those ogres so at least we don't have to worry about them running us out of town."

You cross your arms. As if you would let them do that.

"Still, it doesn't feel right taking their food when they have so little left for themselves." Morgan frowns. "Maybe I can grab something for us in the forest..."

"You're gonna go hunting out there? In the dark?" Naru raises an eyebrow. "Are you crazy?"

"No, I've just gotten rather good at it." Morgan grunts as she pulls her hood back to reveal her wolf ears, reinforcing her point. "There aren't any complaints, right?"

Ironic, isn't it? That Templar is specialized in killing beasts, while Morgan is slowly becoming one. But this may escalate from a Party to a Templar problem if her behaviour isn't kept in check. And when that happens, we must choose between our duty to the Order, and our love for Morgan.

You put a hand on Morgan's shoulder. Perhaps it was best she have company with her. Just in case.

"...thanks." Morgan nods.

"Nnnnn!" Nino whines. "I wanna go too! I was just sitting around here doing nothing all day!"

"Trust me squirt, you should cherish those moments." Naru sighs.

"I wanna go too!" Nino pouts.

Romulus barks as well.

"Of course you'd take her side." Morgan sighs looks to you. "Are you sure it's a good idea?"

You shake your head and pat Nino's head. It was best she stay here to continue keeping an eye on the others.

"Nnnnn, that's no fun!" Nino pouts and crosses her arms in a huff. "Fine! I didn't want to go out anyways!"

Naru just rolls her eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure the squirt doesn't try to sneak out or anything." She assures you.

You nod and follow Morgan out. Romulus trots along too. You let him come along since he could use the training as well.

Outside, the village was already covered in the evening gloom, the last of Sol's light fading away. In response, the villagers begin quickly retreating to their homes, lighting up lanterns and torches to ward the darkness away. You and Morgan get some curious looks, but nobody tries to stop you. After all, you had just slain a pair of ogres, so they must have been sure you were capable of taking care of yourselves.

Morgan doesn't seem to be phased, either, as she seems to be at home in the darkness. Plus it meant people were less likely to see her wolfish features as she continues onward into the forest.

"Um, I might uh, go a little faster pace than you're used to." Morgan says in warning, her tail swishing back and forth. "Are you gonna be fine with that?"

You give Morgan a thumbs up. You could certainly keep up with her, even in your heavy armor.

"Hm, if you insist." Morgan gives a wry grin, as if you were trying to challenge her. "I'm not going to hold back."

You give her another nod.

Morgan's ears twitch as she tries to root out potential prey and she dashes forward, hardly making a sound as she does so. Romulus gives an instinctive howl and barrels after her with equal speed.

You, however...

Morgan was like the wind, weaving through the trees effortlessly and barely disturbing anything. Not a single snapped twig or branch, and barely a rustled leaf. A white wraith stalking the forest that was her domain.

However, it was not as if you were not trained in the arts of hunting, either. There were many a large beast and creature that required guile and speed to dispatch, and you easily keep pace with Morgan, at least always managing to keep her sight as you move.

Finally you see Morgan crouched down behind a tree, Romulus right behind her in a hunched position.

"I'm surprised, you're pretty damn fast." Morgan whispers with a grin, and nods to the direction ahead.

There, illuminated by Luna's pale light, was a lone deer. More than enough to feed your party for the night, as well as provide some provisions for the trip back. An easy target.

You pat Romulus on the head. He could use some more hunting experience.

"All right, we'll let him go first." Morgan nods and looks to Romulus. "You can do it, right?"

Romulus nods happily and gets into attack position, ready to leap forward to grab the deer in his jaws.

Romulus bolts forward in a flash, pouncing on the deer and clamping his jaws down on its throat. The deer squeals and struggles but the young direwolf stubbornly hangs on. All the while, Morgan keeps her bow aimed and ready in the case the deer is somehow able to shake off Romulus, but it's a wasted gesture. Losing air and blood, the deer crumples and falls, completely devoid of energy.

Morgan quietly sets her bow away and draws her knife instead, walking forward and finishing the deer off quickly and cleanly.

"Right, it's too dangerous to prepare it in the field right now, so let's carry it back to town." Morgan says, eying you.

You point to yourself. You assume you're supposed to carry it back.

"Well, I tracked it, and Romulus took it down. What have you done to contribute?" Morgan smiles sweetly.

You nod your head in acceptance and haul the deer carcass over your shoulders. Morgan takes the lead as you head back to town. However, you notice Morgan's still on edge, her ears twitching.

"I think we're being watched." Morgan whispers to you, continuing to walk forward as if nothing was wrong. "Not sure by who, but something's following us."

You just nod toward the town. If they weren't attacking right away, it meant they were just scouting.

"Or looking for an opening." Morgan mumbles.

Romulus growls, but otherwise keeps pace with the both of you.

You try to strain your ears to hear anything, and your eyes scan your periphery to try to see anything, but the darkness, your helmet, and the soft clanking of your armor defeat any attempt by your mere human senses to find your secret stalker.

Fortunately, nothing happens as you reach the edge of the town, but now you were definitely sure there was something following you. A faded silhouette, almost completely melded into the darkness, keeps pace with your little procession all the way to the village, where it stops at the treeline. Waiting. Observing.

Even when the three of you rush into the safety of the inn, you can't shake the feeling whatever was out there was still watching you.

"Great! We finally got some grub." Naru sighs, her stomach growling. "Nino, help me get this thing cut up so we can cook it."

"Ew, gross!" Nino sticks her tongue out.

"Hey, I can-" Niko starts but is cut off by Naru.

"Nope. You stay down or I'll knock you down." Naru grunts.

"Y-yes ma'am." Niko squeaks.

Romulus whimpers as he settles down on the floor.

"You saw it too, didn't you?" Morgan says to you quietly so the others can't hear.

You nod.

"I don't think it's an elf... but it's definitely something that knows how to move through a forest." Morgan frowns. "I don't think it's going to venture into village, but... well you can never be sure."

You give a grim nod. This is a potential threat that you couldn't ignore.

"All right." Morgan nods. "Should we involve the others? I'd rather do it quietly, but... well... Nino does have a penchant for flushing things out in the most direct way possible..."

You put a hand on Morgan's shoulder, urging her to remain calm. You point around the room. Was it inside?

"N-no." Morgan shakes her head. "I can hear it prowling outside, but its keeping its distance."

"What is?" Naru frowns.

"While we were hunting, we detected that something was following us back to the village." Morgan frowns. "And it's outside, watching."

"Okay, I didn't need to know that." Naru groans.

"Can we go blow it up?!" Nino asks, jumping up excitedly.

You flick her forehead. Such powerful magic could damage the village, too.

"Owwww!" Nino whines.

"Huh, sounds pretty bad." Niko sighs. "Looks like we'll have to set up a night watch, huh?"

"I'll do it." Morgan volunteers.

You... get a bad feeling about this whole situation. You're not sure why, though.

You shake your head and step forward, volunteering to keep watch instead.

"N-no, I insist." Morgan frowns. "I can do it."

You put a hand on Morgan's head and ruffle her hair. Out of all of you, she was the one who probably needed the rest the most.

"F-fine." Morgan nods reluctantly. "Just... be careful, okay?"

You nod.

After a big meal, everybody else turns in for the night, all tucked safely in bed. You make doubly sure Morgan stays within your sight. You even instruct Romulus to sleep on top of her to keep her from moving. Just acting on a hunch.

Meanwhile, you sit in the darkened room, staring at the door. The windows were all shuttered and barricaded, so the door was the only conceivable entrance.

You can hear rustling and scrabbling outside, but you're not sure if it's just nocturnal wildlife, the wind, or something else.

However, the night is long, and even your mighty vigilance wavered, especially after such a taxing fight against two ogres and a hunt. You nearly doze off on one moment and regain your senses, but a creaking sound puts you on alert.

You slowly pull your eyes to the source of the sound, and you find one of the window shutters, unlatched and left open, creaking in the wind as the cold night air flowed in. You were certain you had shut that window, which meant whatever was out there knew how to open them.

And it was now inside.

You turn your eyes the other way, and you see a dark shape standing among the girls' beds, its form looming over Morgan, gazing down on her. Perhaps whatever this thing was thought you were asleep as well? Or perhaps it didn't care, you weren't sure.

But there was no time to wonder.

Unfortunately, whatever it was, it had sharp senses and sharper reflexes. It quickly and easily sidesteps your attack, hardly making a sound. However, the sound of your stomping armored feet also served to begin to rouse your companions.

"The fuck is going on...?" Naru slurs groggily.

Morgan, being as high strung as she normally was, instantly shoots up from her bed, knife in hand. The action sends Romulus rolling off her and howling in surprise.

At this point, it was clear any element of surprise had been lost, and the figure bolts back for the open window it had originally crawled in through.

You couldn't afford to let this thing get away. You chase after it, trying to intercept it before it could reach the window.

You grab the figure on the back, your hands grasping around what you recognize as a cloak, and yank hard.

There's a loud THUNK as the figure falls backward and hits the ground. You look down and quickly see that it was definitely a female humanoid, wrapped in a cloak. Her face was covered by a black mask shaped like an animal, but there was one particular feature that legitimately shocked you.

A pair of fox ears poking out from the top of the mask.

"Who are you?!" Morgan finally dashes in, dagger at the ready.

The foxgirl's arms wave around frantically. There was no weapons or items held in them. It looked like she was trying to surrender, or at the very least show she wasn't a threat.

"Wait..." Morgan narrows her eyes. "Can you even talk?"

The foxgirl just shrugs.

"You gotta be fucking kidding me." Naru groans.

"Can we keep her?" Nino says excitedly.

"Never a dull moment, huh?" Niko laughs from her bed.

You look to the foxgirl, and then to Morgan. Could they perhaps be related...?

"Take off the mask." Morgan grunts.

The foxgirl shakes her head adamantly and clamps her hands over the mask. Looks like she didn't want it removed.

We can totally relate with her!

You can't just go around taking off people's masks if they don't want you to.

We sure run into a lot of bitches.

Bitch being a term to describe a female wolf, dog, otter, or fox.

Tangentially, how does Morgan cut her hair with her new ears?
>>
>>2264778
I think a female fox is a vixen.
>>
>>2264780
Correct, bitch is for canis foxes are different

>>2264778
>cut her hair

Very carefully

You put a hand on Morgan's shoulder. That didn't seem necessary and your reach a hand down to her.

The girl pauses for a second, and takes her hands off her mask, which you can now see clearly as a what looked to be a fox head carved out of wood. Rather fitting, you think. The foxgirl takes your hand and you pull her up, noting just how light she was. She then bows profusely to you, either in gratification or apology. You're not exactly sure which.

"All right, so what's your name." Morgan repeats.

The foxgirl pauses, then reaches into her shirt and pulls out a little wooden tag on a necklace around her neck. Carved into it was the the word ARTYA.

"Looks kinda foreign." Naru narrows her eyes. "But it looks like they use the same alphabet as us, weirdly enough."

Artya then points excitedly to her ears and then to Morgan's. Happy to find someone like her?

"Do you... know me?" Morgan asks, now more curious than cautious.

Artya pauses, puts a hand to her chin in thought, and then shakes her head.

"Are you alone?" Naru grunts, still suspicious.

Artya shakes her head and holds up a single finger. One other?

"Where?" Morgan follows up quickly.

Artya points in the direction of the forest.

"Let's go." Morgan grunts as she starts picking up her gear.

You nod and get your own gear ready.

"And how about us?" Naru asks, clearly not fully convinced Artya really was trustworthy or not.

Artya nods profusely..

Hopefully, we can get some animal people to teach Morgan some of her latent abilities/magic.

Maybe things like entering the minds of animals, partial/full transformations, or techniques.

You nod to the others, letting them know that you should all be going to figure all this out.

"Great, barely got any sleep, too." Naru groans.

"Heh, this should be interesting." Niko grins.

"More people like Morgan!" Nino chimes. "I wonder if their tails are just as fluffy as she is...?

Soon enough, the whole party is ready to move, with Artya up front as the leader.

"You sure it's a good idea to just let her move around free like this?" Naru frowns. "Shouldn't we just tie her up a bit or get something like a leash?"

You turn to Artya, who seems to bounce up and down, eager to return to her camp.

>You should tie up Artya.

You shake your head. It didn't seem necessary.

"Don't worry." Morgan says with determination. "If she tries to run, well, I'm here."

"Totally reassuring." Naru rolls her eyes and she falls back to tend to Niko, who was still lagging behind a bit.

You continue to follow Artya as she leads your group deeper into the forest. It couldn't be much longer now...

You keep following Artya's lead until you come to a small clearing in the forest. By now, Sol was just starting to rise, His light beginning to illuminate the surroundings in pink light. All of you remain wary, however, and keep your guard up.

And that's when the familiar smell of cooking food wafts through your nose. It smelled really, REALLY good.

All of your stomachs collectively growl in response, including Artya's, you think.

You finally reach the clearing proper, where you indeed see a little camp set up, complete with a roaring campfire. And there, you could see a woman sitting next to it, biting into a freshly roasted sausage.

And, similar to Artya, this woman had an animal ears and tail, all brown and bushy. You were guess a type of wolf, as well.

"Oh! Artya! You should have said you were bringing guests!" She says happily. "Come on, sit down by the fire! You all look absolutely famished!"

You... you weren't too sure what was going on now. Have you really just run into Morgan's mysterious tribe...?
