Bab 298: Pathetic Excuse, All Going To End

[View of Howl]

Running through the forest, Howl wasn't really sure what he was doing. He had no reason to help this creature, yet something about him was strange and different.

Howl was used to the other bug people coming in and trying to kill him and succeeding a few times. Each time he died, Howl would respawn in a different ring location, but the outcome was always the same.

Now, this man had offered to take care of him, but Howl was a proud creature and not the type that shouldn't need help, but he did. Howl continued forward, but suddenly his senses went wild, and the wolf jumped to the side as a projectile streaked towards him.

An arrow pierced the ground where the blue wolf was supposed to be, but Howl gave it no thought as he darted for a tree. The wolf's mind had been in a cloud of thoughts, and it had almost cost him his life.
