Edited: Minor edits, but I also changed the riddle at the end.
---
With this surprising evolution of my curse came an equally surprising notification about my future as a werewolf.
[ALERT! A rare strain of lycanthropy has been born inside of you, unlocking a divergent path that may put you at odds with the other members of your wolf pack.]
I figured there were a variety of werewolf strains just like there was a whole slew of vampire subspecies like strigoi, Carpathians, aswang, and the Atlantean empousa spread throughout the realmsverse. The patchwork wolf, the classic wolfman, and the wilder-looking bipedal werewolf were examples of such strains. There was also the demon wolf, which I thought might not just be one of Fenrisúlfr's titles.
If the bloodstained wolf was a rare strain of lycanthropy, then the demon wolf must at least be a legendary tier strain. One of a kind too by the looks of it.
Some people might ask, why stick to this title?
Because it's the theme of the chapter. It's not about the gold. It's about what Will finds that is as precious as gold.
