Legends of the Lycanthropes

Preface

There are legends that make up the structure of the lycanthrope society. Legends of the past that explain how werewolves came to be, how the original packs formed, and the origins of the alpha. Likewise, there are legends of a time in the distant future. Legends that predict great turmoil and despair. Legends that outline a savior that will save the race from self-eradication.

One legend we care especially about outlines a sole wolf who would lead the species out from evil and destruction and bring the lycanthrope people into a new age. The hero is said to be impossibly strong and intelligent. A wolf, who will rise upon the ranks and put forth a new decree. This wolf will be the most respected among them all.

In the pack the man is powerful. The Alpha rules and is respected by all. A patriarchy. So naturally, the legends have been interpreted to make the savior of the lycanthropes to be a man. A great alpha whose power is unlike any other. Who's strength not only strikes fear into the hearts of every man, woman, and child but also is a great thinker and compassionate to his people.

We start our story in a pack positioned in the southern region of the lycanthrope nation; one of many that make up the whole lycanthrope people. This pack is known as the Lunar Rune pack, it is one of little power but compiled of healers and wise sages from a time long ago. The Lunar Rune pack focus on the power of the moon goddess and the ancient legends she gifted the lycanthrope people in hopes to guide the future generations.
