Bk1: Ch8: Pg15
Arayanna: Yes. You will do just perfectly.
4a.
Arayanna: Maeye...
Maeye: Epsca's eyes! Where have you been!
4b.
Arayanna: Wait, there's something I want to show...
Maeye: Me first!
Arayanna: But Maeye...
4c.
Maeye: Trust me.
5a.
Zenlan: You've returned!
Zenlan: And I see you've found your lady friend.
5b.
Sansraen: Sansraen of Stennar. Please to meet you.
Zenlan: Zenlen, proprietor of The Blue Heron, where you are most welcome my lady.
6a.
Zenlan: But wait. What of the third fellow?
Nihklas: He was wounded by the beast yet again.
Nihklas: But he is resting safely in the back of your wagon.
6b.
Zenlan: So you battled with this beast?
K: Battled and defeated.
7a.
Zenlan: Uum...
Nihklas: Uuh...
7b.
K: What devilry is this?
8a.
Arayanna: Maeye, I was just jogging! I'm all sweaty!
Arayanna: What are you up to?
8b.
Maeye: I think you're going to like this.
8c.
Arayanna: Oh my...
8d.
Arayanna: Ooooooo!
Oh my… 😀
but regarding our beast, doubt that this is over… and the third fellow might just not safely resting in the wagon…
Fairly sure Endora cleared out the lycanthropy virus (at least, she did the first time… )
It’s definitely not over. 😀
“That howl! Was that another of those beasts?”
“It must be! Hurry, everyone! Grab your swords, and follow me!”
“OOOOooooOOOOOoooooo…”
“It sounds like it’s just through this door. When I burst through, everyone follow on my heels… Now!”
BAM! Tromp, tromp, tromp…
“The light! It’s blinding! Can anyone see?”
“I think I see it! It’s devouring someone! Kill it!”
“No! Stop! That’s not a monster! I’d recognize the shape of that ass, anywhere. It’s Maeye!”
“Oh yeah, you’re right. That is Maeye’s ass! Everyone knows what that ass looks like.”
“Even I recognize that ass, and the last time I saw it was years ago, when Maeye’s family came to the city!”
“Um… If that’s Maeye’s ass, then what is she doing devouring… Oh. … OH! …”
“Eeeh… H-hi, Maeye. …Hi, Aray. …. Bye, Maeye. Bye, Aray.”
“Hi, guys! Just testing out a new tingly magic trick I figured out today.”
“Huurrrglle, gurrbls.”
“Aray said ‘Hi, guys.’ I think her slurring is a side effect of the magic… or, maybe I’m just… that… good…”
“Later, Maeye, when you two are dressed, remind me to teach you a concept called ‘Too Much Information'”
“Never heard of it.”

(Now I wanna see this as a side story) xD
Huh. Reminds me of the “Were-woman” story here:
https://moonstruckwolfgirl.wordpress.com/2016/07/23/werewolf-myths-and-legends-of-france/
…Aaaaaand she was burned at the stake. The end. 🙂
That was a cool story and a great website. Thank you for sharing! I have lots of reading to do.
I wonder if “The Beast of Gévaudan” is the basis for Brotherhood of the Wolf? (One of my favorite werewolf movies)
An interesting collection, but she got a few particulars wrong. Bisclavret is a lai, a poetic style popularized by Marie de France and usually told to musical accompaniment. It’s not a report, and Marie never intended it to be believed.
Do you study literature or is it a hobby?
And, yes, “Brotherhood of the Wolf” is based on a retelling of the Gévaudan tale. Chevalier de Fronsac even says he’s been sent to Gévaudan to investigate.
Now I have to watch that movie! Thank goodness it is Halloween season. It’s all horror movies from now until All Saints.
Now that’s a kiss to jumpstart her week 😀
After leaving her weak at the knees first 😛
Definitely a nap in order after that, I believe.
The beast’s head has reverted to its original state post mortem?
Yup. 🙂
Well that was unexpected. Wonder if anyone recognizes mister head?
Well that’s a kiss that’ll light up your day. I agree with Maeye if it’s jest sweat it just adds to the experience.
Hmm. I guess they could sit him on a tree stump out front and see if anyone recognizes him. 🙂
Agreed. A little sweat is just yummy. 😀
Eleven days since the last update. Trouble in graphic paradise, Feori?
Nope! Update coming in a few minutes. We are on an every two week schedule. The time is a little longer, but the page I produce every two weeks is a bit more than twice what you usually get in a web comic – I just like to tell the story in bigger chunks. Page a’comin!
Sweet!
We always knew Maeye had a magic mouth…
But now, she really does have _a magic mouth._
pick it up n be like “hmm this head is suddenly a lot less hairy and heavy oh well musta been the wind”
