    During his young childhood, Gariga was always told to never wander into the forest right next to his house. Folk-lore says that once inside the woods, a wild beast-like creature attacks you and drags you deep into the woods to never be seen again. As Gariga grows older, he puts that tale to the test and takes a trip inside.

    THIS IS A SHORT STORY!!... Sadly it is not finished yet.. BUT it will be soon. So if you are left on a cliff hanger i am sorry<3 In a world where the medieval era has gracefully yielded to the sprawling urban jungles of the modern age, the legends of yore have all but faded into myth. Towering buildings stretch towards the heavens, and bustling cities teem with life, their inhabitants oblivious to the ancient tales whispered in the countryside. Among these stories, the legend of the Wolf Walkers persists, told by farmers to curious travellers, but believed by few. These mysterious beings, it is said, walk among us by day as ordinary humans, only to transform into wolves by night, their wild spirits unleashed as their human forms lie soundly asleep. Kiyoko, a smart and inquisitive teenage boy, stumbles upon a secret that will change his life forever. One fateful night, driven by an unexplainable urge, Kiyoko sneaks out of his urban home and ventures into the nearby forest. There, under the haunting light of the moon, he encounters a lone wolf. Startled and in defence, the wolf bites him before disappearing into the depths of the forest. Kiyoko returns to the city, shaken and bewildered. However, his confusion turns to sheer disbelief when, just nights later, he finds himself looking down at his own sleeping body. His spirit, now untethered from his physical form, begins to shift and change, embodying the wolf that lies dormant within his soul. Kiyoko's life spirals into an extraordinary adventure as he grapples with his newfound identity as a Wolf Walker, navigating the duality of his existence. THIS IS A FANFICTION BOOK!. Slightly altered the storyline, characters. This story takes time in the modern era/century aka 2024.
