The shape comes into the range of the fluttering lantern and you
gasp...
"Be still, elfling!" The werewolf thunders at you.
"If I wanted to kill you, I would have already done so."
The beast raises a mighty paw and you instinctively flinch. The paw
continues toward the bump on your head.
"Yes, I see...a nasty bump." The werewolf continues in a
more gentle voice.
....It's HUGE. Taller than a man and twice as wide, you feel your
legs start to tremble. You are not a coward. But you are so confused
and you don't even know if you know how to fight!
