Part I: Homelands (A Knight's Quest & A Queens Journey) The war between France and Spain was a battle for power. During the war there was a myth/lore that a creature of the night existed. The fulad-zerah, also called the beast. A war machine, it's purpose to kill. It destroyed kingdoms leading them to surrender. The deadly destruction of the brutal killings was all doings of the supernatural. It gave France an advantage; Keep the knights off of French lands. What is the fulad-zerah? Imagine: twice the size of a bear with the senses of a werewolf a natural predator, but it's also a man. A man who wants to continue something he started. Black shuck: a hellhound, also part demon. Remained in it's human form, with a partial shift when the black shuck came out. Powers-heightened senses, claws, glowing fiery orange eyes, master of fire like her farther. To some a guardian of the night. To others a terror of the night.
