Man and beast (OC)

(For correspondence and updates, please go to : https://ricebowl70.blogspot.com/2025/08/updates.html ) Overall living on the edge of your village wasn’t as bad as everyone had made it seem. Sure, the walks to the centre of town and the markets were longer but you also got to have the relative quiet of the wind brushing across the grass and you even got to see the beastmen guard walking around the village perimeter to protect from anyone seeking to invade. You remember the story about how the beastmen came to guard the village, knowing that your ancestors had helped them when they were attacked by a particularly aggressive group of fae bandits.

From those who hunted with spears to now where people could use guns, the desire to kill the dangerous creatures that lurked in the shadows overruled most desires although the reason for the desire had changed through the years, your ancestors had hunted for food whereas the hunt nowadays is for glory and trophy.
