    Read it here!

    So, clearly the wolves and witches have very different ideas about the origin of their kinds.... of course, I didn't get around to explaining the rise of the W.A.W. as the myth writing ended up derailing me.

    It was quite fun to write in that style, almost like a story from the Bible, but also quite difficult. Not sure how well I succeeded.

    I found this entertaining. I liked the "legend" sort of feel to the story.

    ~Lyn, likes myths.

    I'm glad you liked it. I found it tricky to write in that style, and ended up reading a lot of religious texts to try capture the right tone.

    I was really tempted to write it a proper scene instead of a myth (as in, show Fang talking to Howl, and Howl's little kid comments at the story) but it kept jarring me out of the groove.
