The restless wind blows across the sky as the sun began to fade into the darkness that will consume the town, just the right time for nocturnal animals to come out and play with each other. The sound of wolves howling at the skies as they chase a group of deers galloping away from them, one by one they began to catch their prey and leaving them defenseless, a hunter with a sword watches from a far through the bushes examining the wolves cooperating with each other to take down their prey.

"Guess they had their meal for the day"

The hunter simply commented on the situation ahead before letting out a soft sigh, panning over towards the setting sun and letting his gaze meet the yellow light, another sigh escaped his lips with thoughts running into his head like a crashing wave against the rocks on the beach. Gritting his teeth and biting on his lips soon after with a confused look.

"..."

The hunter stood there in his stood pondering on the thought before he snaps back into reality to hearing a two wolves stalk behind him, their teeth drooling and sharp like knives, their eyes flaring in majestic gold but they only know that their bellies are never empty. Adelart watched the two wolves coming closer towards him, in responds he reaches his arm up to the hilt of his blade to draw it out, letting the canines stare their eyes onto the bright steel blade.

"Fuck..."
He commented with a simple word, the first wolf rushed up with ready to bite his arm which the hunter turned his body to the side and sends a hard slash across the wolfs belly, cutting it open but leaving him open for the other one to come at him, its teeth biting into the hunters armor but his long sword is useless in this situation. Quickly his fingers unwrap themselves from the blade and letting it hit the ground, reaching for his hunter knife on the side and sending it straight for the wolf's neck, spurting out blood right into his face before tossing the body aside with both of them dead.

He panted heavily as he stood himself back up, looking down at the two dead wolves infront of him, suddenly a small sound of screeching came from a far..it sounded like two animals are fighting. He passes through the bushes and saw a young pup biting a young deer on the leg, the deer whimpered in pain and the pup attempts to take it down, but it was too little to do so.

Barked barked the little wolf went trying to become what their parents are, it turned its gaze towards the hunter and with a frighten look..it took of rather quickly. The deer looks up at Adelart with small tears running down its eyes as it continued to whimper in pain, likely their parents are already devoured moments ago during the hunt he witness moments ago. The hunter returned the look with a more natural state but knees down and pulls out his hunting knife once more.

"Today isnt your day isnt it..."
And with that...the whimpering stopped in a heart beat, and so the hunter walks back to the holy city after his successful hunt to sleep.
