{10 chapters so far.} Amongst the stars is Panimoon, a place where technologically advanced, evolved, magic wolves rule. A fluffy, curiosity-filled dragon-wolf pup that fears others leaves home to go adventuring, unaware of what will arise from such a decision.
This story doesn't focus on or really even have romantic stuff, but it has violence literally in the first chapter.
This story is still in progress. This is also not a werewolf story nor are the characters physically anthropomorphized, by the way, although they might be mentally anthropomorphized a little. I mean, I'd think that evolved wolves would be more nomadic and would be less likely to live in villages like humans do, and wolves primarily eat meat so it's kinda odd that they'd have macaroons, but oh well.
Humans, so far, are absent from the story and it could remain that way forever, so don't expect humans.
In this story,
People ≠ Humans
Person ≠ Human
Person = Someone with a personality, whether they're human or not
This is Outcast, book one of the series Starran. There is a book zero, which used to be book one (and Outcast used to be book two), but I'm not comfortable with posting book zero. With that in mind, I don't know if there will be a book two or not.
Here's a link to the same story but on a different website (Google Docs): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1O-OFPgsjSzTH9n0m5_ym97nEj48gYV3ZDGERjOidYzs/edit?usp=sharing
Beware of a sad image if you go to that website (it's the alternate cover for the book).
Ray is low on time, luck, and hope; his only chance is an artifact that may not even exist. But upon meeting Landon, Ray is beginning to believe he might find all four.
*****
Cambions are doomed to tragedy. They are weak, sickly creatures that rarely live to see their twentieth year. Ray refuses to resign himself to that fate. Upon learning of the Crimson Sheath-an artifact capable of preserving his life-Ray is prepared to fight, steal, and kill to get his hands on it. He is not prepared for Landon. Landon is an orphan with no memories of his parents, the only inheritance left to him a dagger, sleeping in a crimson sheath. Though he has no love of bloodshed and no use for a dagger, Landon isn't about to let Ray take his only link to his forgotten history, even if that means following the cambion past the edge of the world and into the shadow beyond.
