Warning! This story contains subjects that some could find offensive. Also, for those who are a stickler for timelines and realism, these events are matched at happening at the same time, when in actual history they were hundreds of years away from each other. Thank you for your understanding

Based off of Celtic, Jewish, Slavic, Norwegian, and Shetland mythology and the mysterious history of monsterous murders in France 1764

In Gevaudan France, people have been found dead, brutally ripped apart by some sort of beast. As the death count continues to increase, the king of France, Louis the Beloved, has sent a bounty for whoever or whatever is causing havoc. Hunters from all around the world have come to find the elusive murderer.

After an accident led to a burned down church in Prague, a great beast has been spotted in the surrounding area. Eye witness reports tell of the man-like creature traveling with a young girl.

In Ireland, a witch hunt has begun. For the last few years many sightings of unholy creatures have been increasing. Fairies tempting the hearts of men, Selkies shedding their skin and dancing on the sand, wolf-men pretending to be people, and even trolls hunting peasants at the edge of towns. After children have gone missing, and babies have suddenly changed personalities, the common folk have finally had enough. All signs point to a powerful witch deep in the woods.

These are just a few of the many monstrous accounts across the world. From vampires invading England, to demonic rituals being performed across Europe. Even talk of a dragon is being spread. However hope is not all lost. These Witchmen, dragon slayers, and priests. These "monster hunters" are being hired by the hundreds.

The hunt has begun, and it starts with the beast of France.

The Beast of Gevaudan.
