Ciel's heart pounds in his chest as he witnesses the chaotic battle between _______ and Alma, their struggle escalating to a dangerous level. He tries to intervene, but ________'s quick thinking prevents him from being bitten by the ferocious werewolf. His eyes widen in horror as he watches the two of them tumble into the river, disappearing from sight.

"No!" Ciel shouts, his voice filled with desperation. He tries to move forward, but the villagers, fueled by fear and superstition, block his path. Their words echo in his ears, painting a grim picture of the fate that awaits those who fall into the waterfall.

Sebastian's voice cuts through the chaos with a calm yet commanding tone. "Stand aside! We must retrieve ______ and ensure their safety. We cannot afford to lose them"

Ciel's gaze hardens as he locks eyes with the villagers, his determination unwavering. "Move aside. We will find a way to reach them, with or without your help."

The villagers hesitate, uncertain of how to respond to the young earl's resolute determination. With a flick of his hand, Sebastian unsheathes a silver dagger, its glinting blade catching the moonlight. "I suggest, you step aside.."

"Enough already!" Ciel's voice is filled with icy determination as he glares at the villagers, his eyes burning with fury. "If there's even a chance of finding _______, we won't give up. The demon hound be damned!"

Ciel's determination flickers in his eyes as he stares down his obstacles, his voice filled with resolution. "Sebastian, find a way. We cannot falter now." His gaze shifts to the waterfall, the roaring sound of the rushing water echoing in his ears. Sebastian bows his head in acknowledgment, his voice calm but filled with determination. "As you wish, Young Master. I will find a way to reach ______"

With a swift motion, Sebastian turns and begins navigating the treacherous terrain, searching for a path that will lead them to Lumine and the abyss below. Ciel watches him, his heart heavy with worry for his loyal servant. "Please, be safe, ________," he whispers under his breath, hoping against hope that they can rescue her from the clutches of the dreaded demon hound and bring her back to safety.

Upon descending from the peak of the waterfall, where in which, Ciel and Sebastian left the rest to watch over the village, they find a girl about 15 years old by the looks of it. Instantly rushing to them with a concerned yet knowing look, "I am Kaya- Are you _______'s master? Please, hurry! They will be executed if you do not get them soon!" The girl exclaims, as she leads them to a village past the waters. Covering their scents with cloths and such, before taking them to a prison of sorts.

"Yahoo, and welcome to the realm of werewolves"

______ smiles, as they idly sit behind bars. There, _____ and Kaya explain that the people who found them, are actually werewolves. _____ was saved by Kaya, and two other girls; Vera and Nora. But was unfortunately found out by the other werewolves and taken there for a trial/execution of sorts. As the village of werewolves, think that the humans of Houndsworth were responsible for their own losses as well. Their God- the Demon Hound, giving them premonitions that humans will one day cause ruin for them, and they must not allow humans to soil their home.

"There's defs more to the mystery of all the Hounsworth lossess, as for the 'bad dogs' that was all Alma's doing. I couldn't find her body after I woke up, but I've room to believe she's a goner." _______ explains, then they go on to say that Nora- had recently been found dead. Strangely enough, she was shot killed and although the werewolves assume it was ______'s doing they'd been surrounded by them before the shot was fired and the body was found... Ciel's eyes widen as he listens to Kaya and ________'s revelations, the pieces of the puzzle slowly falling into place. The existence of a village of werewolves, their belief in the Demon Hound as their protector, and their suspicion towards the humans of Houndsworth all point to a deeper conspiracy at play.

"So, the werewolves believe that the humans are responsible for their losses, and they seek retribution," Ciel muses, his voice filled with a mix of curiosity and concern. "It seems that Alma was the one behind the 'bad dogs' and the recent deaths. Her actions have only fueled the animosity between the werewolves and humans."

Ciel's gaze hardens as he takes in the severity of the situation, his mind racing with possible solutions. "We need to find the true culprit behind Nora's death and uncover the truth about the werewolves' losses. ________, do you have any idea who could be responsible for these acts?"

________'s expression turns grim as _____ shakes their head. "I don't have any concrete evidence or suspects, but there is a thought. I'll have to have you guys go along with me, kay?"

He glances at Sebastian, silently urging him to assess the situation from a demon's perspective. Sebastian, with his keen sense of smell and intellect, can provide crucial insights into the motives and workings of the werewolves.

"Sebastian, while ______ is detained here, could you investigate further? We need to discern whether the werewolves' accusations against humans are justified, and we must find the truth behind Nora's murder," Ciel commands, his authority permeating his voice.

Sebastian inclines his head with a slight smile. "Of course, Young Master. Leave it to me."

"You've done well to save ______," Ciel acknowledges Kaya with a nod, gratitude shining in his eyes. "But we need to act swiftly to prevent your execution. Sebastian, we must find a way to negotiate with the werewolves and prove ______'s innocence."

____ smiles gratefully, their eyes glittering with an eagerness he can't exactly explain. "I knew I could count on ya. And you too, Sebs." ______ turns to Kaya and the others, their voice earnest. "Thank you for saving me. We need the evidence, but I can't be the one to do that unless I wanna get an early execution. I ain't gon pay shit for Undertaker's coffins either."

Kaya nods, her gaze firm. "I will do everything I can to help. We need to know the truth..." As they set their plan into motion, navigating the intricate politics and dangerous secrets of the werewolf village, Ciel and Sebastian realize that their battle is far from over. The web of lies and treachery stretches far and wide, and they must uncover the truth before more lives are lost. With every step they take, their resolve strengthens, and they vow to bring justice to the village of Houndsworth, exposing the true villains and saving _____ from their wrongful imprisonment...
