The Fall of Selene: How the Werewolf Came to Be | ✔

No one really knows how werewolves came to be.

Even the beast themselves struggle to place their origins- often likening their roots to the moon. Many worship the deities of the tales they have heard, passed down through tongue and pen. Selene, Artemis, Hecate- many names they have sung with their praises. Some pray to the moon itself.

There are those who no longer offer their praise.

Some say it's a curse, some say evolution- all have some kind of tale.

But how did such creatures ever come to be? How were they blessed with soul mates? Is there any truth in those tales of old?

I'll tell you the real story. You can trust my word, for I am the moon and I have seen it all.

It is a tale of great love, even greater loss and the power of compassionate hearts.

This is a tale about the fall of Selene.
