Before long, your ears detect a heavy footstep behind you, and you turn around to see what exactly is there to make the noise.
To your own surprise, you see a wolf-like creature standing proudly in front of you, as if warning you to be careful of your movements. You notice the feet have talon-like toes, and the fur patterns seem to remind you of what your 9th grade Biology teacher once told you. "If any animal has red markings, it usually means danger."
Trying to make the best of this situation, you kneel down and hold your hands out to the creature, trying to show that you mean no harm. The female, obviously very protective of her home, glares at you the entire time she walks over to you and sniffs at your hands, then walks away again. She lays down on what appears to be something she made for her bedding, and dismisses you by turning her back on you. "That was wierd," you tell yourself, looking over at the femme as you stand. Standing there just for a moment, watching her side rise and fall with her breath, you shrug and look around again for anything that'll tell you what on earth this creature is and where it comes from.
Just as you decide to give up hope of finding anything, you see a plaque on the wall, screwed into the rock with gold colored screws. The plaque itself is some darkwood, and it reads:
