Neverwinter Forest And what's he going to do, borrow a cup of sugar from Satan?

He wasn't too far from the den -- a good shout would call him back, but he was within the realm of free reign that his mother allowed. But he heard something! And thus, had frozen. Something big was moving about and it sounded a little different than a wolf. Kid or not, he was good enough at paying attention to how big something sounded.

And this? This thing was huge! A giant shadow maybe twice -- no three times bigger than dad! It moved differently, carefully but not quietly. Differently. Deer didn't usually come close to the den for obvious reasons, and though he'd been told about what other sorts of things lived nearby, this seemed like some sort of fantastic beast, not reality. And so instead the boy gawked at the distant, mysterious creature. If he had a functioning brain cell right now he'd call his siblings to look too but right now, nope.
