"Ten years? That's kinda ...<span style="font-style: italic">long</span>," Lianth said after his sprite had explained everything to him. The werewolf was trudging along in his human shape, Kiana floating along beside him and nodding.<br/><br/>"Yes, it is," Kiana replied. "But it's the only way, unless you plan on cutting my time with you short by getting yourself eaten."<br/><br/>Lianth chuckled. "Yeah, fuck that," he said, noticing some other figures on the horizon. "Huh, some other folks. Don't look like the ones you talked about."<br/><br/>"The elves and anthros? No they're not either of those, I think I even see some sprites."<br/><br/>"Let's check it out," Lianth said, grinning and hurrying closer, heedless of Kiana's warnings that they may not be friendly. Either they would be friendly or they would not, and that's Lianth cared to know - because it either meant he got to get a better idea of what's going on, maybe come up with a plan. If not, however, he was sure he could get a kill or two - which would cover food for the day.
