Azyrah Faynore (Azy) Session 1 Recap

Azyrah wakes in her family home. Her room is clean except for her desk area which has newspaper clippings of all the monsters she and her friends have been hunting.

After dealing with her two mischievous sisters, she heads down to breakfast where her father, mother, sisters, and her friend Girthor are. Girthor is in her chair and after a bit of bickering they end up sharing.

Girthor whispers to her about a wolf that's been attacking people. She thinks she, Girthor, and Vic can handle it, so she has Girthor text Vic to meet them near the woods.

Her father then asks her to help with the dishes--although in a way that gives her no choice. So, she agrees. While doing the dishes, her father gives her a beautiful leather alchemist's kit that has been in their family for many years.

Her father also tells her that he wants her to follow her heart and do what she loves to do, to make the world a better place by killing one monster at a time.

After the talk, Azy and Girthor meet Vic. The three of them venture into the woods to try and find the trail of the deadly wolf. Soon enough, they do find its trail and follow it deeper into the woods.

Just as they're about to give up and go home, they spot its trail again. However, the trail ends abruptly as if the wolf flew out of the grass. Suddenly, they find that there are more sets of glowing eyes than they bargained for--5 to be exact. They have no choice but defend their lives.

Azy and Girthor find a boulder to climb and Vic takes the ground. As Azy and Girthor launch ranged attacks, Vic defends the ground with his longsword. However, one of the wolves is a giant mutated one. It's huge and terrifying.

The wolves go after Vic, he shoves his sword into the mouth of the giant mutated wolf, which gives Azy a chance to shoot it through its open mouth. Green smoke comes out of the wolf's throat and makes Vic sick. The smaller wolves continue to go after him. Azy and Girthor continue to try and kill the giant wolf as Vic is dragged off unconscious by the four small ones.

Once the big one is dead, they have to duck behind the boulder because something very strange is happening with the corpse. It's filling up like a balloon and eventually explodes acid everywhere that eats into the ground.

Azy and Girthor run after Vic and the other wolves and fall into a pit, taking a lot of damage. Trapped at the bottom of a pit full of bones and rotting corpses with four wolves, Azy and Girthor are out of options. They try a few things, but ultimately, the pit is too dark and there are too many wolves--and another giant mutated wolf shows up at the top of the pit.

Azy desperately searches the pit for anything that could help them. She finds something hard and grabs it. Suddenly a voice asks her to do its bidding if she wants to live. She agrees in desperation and is then taken over by what turns out to be a longbow made of bone with two ornate skulls framing the arrow rest. It produces powerful charges. The first takes out the giant wolf above and the other 4 wolves fall soon after. Vic is saved by Girthor who has healing potions. Just as they're about to leave, one of the wolves jolts up and scratches Azy in the face. She kills it and the three make it home alive. Azy is both fascinated and terrified of the weapon she now possesses.
