Treasure island

"Jolly Jagger was a very unusual wolf from the start - as a pup he couldn't stand still for one moment, he always wanted to go and do something, which, of course meant that he often either got lost or got in trouble. When he was old enough to leave his pack behind, he left it without a second glance and was never seen there again," Osprey paused for a moment to let the first part of the story sink in.

"However the word spread in the wilds about an adventurous wolf, who feared nothing, was eager to test his limits in every kind of way and who lived and breathed just to have another adventure-ful day. Those, who met him in person, thought that he was crazy. Those, who heard stories of him, from which the legends stemmed from, thought of him as a hero," she said. "Do you know why? It doesn't take much to become a good hunter or gamekeeper, you can even become a successful alpha with a lot of effort, but leading a life the way Jagger did, required something extraordinary."

"And he had it. The special sense of finding treasures - cold and shining trinkets, beautiful stones, even a carcass of a recently brought down and forgotten elk. The legend says that there wasn't a thing he couldn't sniff up and find. Whatever people treasured and had lost or hidden - he could find it. Even secrets - buried deep down in one's mind. Amazing, isn't it?" she asked, contemplating about this special sense and whether she would like to have it or not.

"However, this gift had come with a price. The story tells that, when he had been a young adventurer, he had helped out the sea-goddess herself and for that she had let him choose a gift. And after a lot of thinking he had asked for the keenest sense of smell. Yet the goddess wasn't known for being very fair, therefore she had fulfilled his wish and taken the most precious gem he had - his soul - and hid it in a place he would never find it."

"And you need a soul to die and move on - from that day on Jolly Jagger had his special sense of smell, yet he was damned to roam the Earth for many decades, watch his friends and comrades grow old and die, see their children being born and grown up, but he never changed himself," she finished. "Is there anything you want to know more about him?" because a character like this could fit in in many stories.
