Hunting the Silver Wolf

n my way to the city of Moonglow, I was strolling along the coastland of Moonglow island to enjoy the peace and tranquility for a while. I walked past a beautiful farm house, and the white flowers planted along the wooden walls invited me to come in for a visit. I opened the front door and entered. A farmer welcomed me. Upon my greeting, he began to tell me a story about a silver wolf haunting the area, killing all his cattle. He asked me for assistance to get rid of the vile blood-thirsty creature. I accepted the challenge and left the farm house, looking for the threatening beast.

The farmer had told me to head northeast, so I walked into this direction, tracking for any animals. Then suddenly, not far from the farm, I saw a pack of wolves! My heart began to beat faster. There were four wolves, and I knew that the grey and dire wolves could be quite dangerous. One of them always kept back and seemed to watch the scenery from a safety distance. He had a strange color, not really silver, but somehow light grey with a shade of golden. The wolves attacked immediately. It was a tough fight, I had to retread and hide several times to recover and refresh my Reactive Armor spell. Then finally the three wolves were defeated. Only the silver wolf was left. The silver wolf watched me through his cunning eyes. Then I stepped forward, lifted my halberd and attacked! This beast dealt a lot of damage to me! When my Reactive Armor had worn off, a single bite of it took about 10 percent of my life energy!

Finally, with 15 percent of my health remaining, the silver wolf sank growling to the ground, lying in his own blood. I took his fur and headed back to the farmer. When I showed them the fur, the farmer and his wife were so relieved and grateful that they rewarded me with a magic plate as a reward. Later I identified it as a breast plate of protection and guarding with 32 charges. A kingly gift!
