     It's sneaky time! You creep closer to the village, carefully avoiding the dozen or so people in sight. It isn't hard. You have years of experience sneaking around, including the first six months when you had to hide from the resident wolf pack before you managed to befriend them. Word of advice to travellers: don't piss off the when her wolf friends are hunting.

     Thinking about wolves brings your anger at Papago's death rushing to the forefront. You realize you're a wolf on the hunt. Perfect. Wolf hunting wolf.

     You're among the houses now, the paths shrouded in shadow. There's a rather complicated spell that would make it even more difficult for others to see you, but it requires a bit more calm than what you currently have.

     A figure steps from a side door with a bag over her shoulder, blocking your path. You freeze, hoping she won't notice you being sneaky, but it's too late. She opens her mouth. Is she going to talk to you? Scream for help? What should you do?
