Chapter 9 by Azulblade

What do you choose?

Greater Moon Wolf

You look at the options that have been presented to you. Becoming a champion of Nalu would be a grand honor. To fight in his name, and be granted his strength, would change everything. Yet you hesitate, your paw hovering over the choice. It’s as if something stopping you from it.

“You are not yet ready, young one.” An old, mysterious, yet somewhat comforting voice echoes in your mind. “Become stronger, and soon you will be ready.”

Just as fast as it came, the mysterious voice soon vanished from your thoughts. It felt ancient, powerful even. Glancing up, you see Nalu’s moon. Could it have been…

You shake your head, clearing your thoughts. “Argh, it’s been too long a day to worry about it now.”

In any case, you still have a choice to make. You lower your paw and hover over ‘Greater Moon Wolf’. Get stronger, huh? Pressing the option, you watch the growth chart dissolve into light and soon spread over you.

You yip in shock as a new wave of energy washes over. You feel yourself grow again but not as much as before. Your stance gets wider, and grows longer, and even feels muscles start growing, making you stronger. Bones pop and joints snap and reform throughout, you even feel your tail lengthen as well.

The process wasn’t as powerful as the last one and soon dissipated. Opening your eye, you look down and see the ground farther away. You weren’t exactly big before but now it looks like you’ve doubled in height. You see a ring of darker white fur above your paws. Feeling something on you, you look to your right which is extremely hard, and find a brown leather holster strapped to your right shoulder.

“Where did that come from?” Wondering what else changed, you bring up your stats screen.

“Open my eye?” No way. Hesitantly, you slowly open your right eye. At first, you see nothing but slowly the colors and the world come back into view. Soon, your full vision is restored.

You can see. Praise Nalu, you can see!

You're so overjoyed you actually backflip with ease. Glancing to your right, your grin disappears, and are vastly reminded of why you went through all this.

How is the huntress?
