There's a legend in my town that says, once you see the demon eyes they will follow you until you die. I don't know where the legend came from all I know is that it has been a part of our town since the beginning, passed down over generations. My grandfather told me the story about the demon eyes when I was little; he told me that a creature lurks in the forest surrounding our town, but that sometimes they venture out of the trees, and when someone sees their red, glowing eyes, they will see them wherever they go until they go crazy and die. This story has been apart of my town from the beginning, warding people from getting too close to the forest or from going out after dark, but as I got older I realized that it was mainly used to scare little kids into behaving, never believing just how much truth there was to the story until it was too late.

Fire Fox

It's dangerous to leave fire going while leaving camp. But some people just don't care, why come camp out in the woods in the first place? Whatever the answer is, I hope you're happy. A mystical forest is said to hold spirits of the ancient animals that once lived there, many creatures roam the forest. Some humans wish to see said beings, though they never are able to. Said for one family who decided to try and ended up with nothing, they didn't think about putting out their campfire. A young fox happened to roam where they had just left, seeing the red and orange flames dance in the blackened wood. It got closer and closer, not knowing the dangers. A simple pop and the poor baby fox's fur was set to flames, or ran frantically to get them to go away, but its efforts weren't enough, it simply burned to death, turning into ashes. It's soup now roams the forest, its body made entirely of flames, see as its journey takes him much farther than anticipated. What will come of this young fox? Will it accept its knew life or become impure like the Unrien, darkened souls that leak dangers during the night.
