Sounds wonderful so far, can't wait to see what the edits bring. And although your hero is not of the...scaley variety, he's still awesome. Oh and...I'm in love with the idea about the tree! Wonderful!

*cough* *cough* *mutters to herself* ugh, this agonizing cough will not decease, oh how i long for it to leave. *sigh* i guess some have it better then others.

oh hello Noir *old lady tilts her head up* you do know how to write that is for sure. Again another great story, you my friend are the reason why i come here, to here your wonderful voice as you tell stories like homer does.

BRUTUS *old lady yells* aw isn't he just a cutie i found him near some gate digging his self out when i was taking my nightly stroll through towns. can you help me out with him though i want to know where i should return him to.

*cough* i'm sorry i can't be here for *cough cough* excuse me i meant to say for very long, but i will be back in this tavern to here what you have to say for our friends and alas for now i shall bid you an adieu good night. *the old lady says as she picks up her ale and chugs it down as she and brutus walk out of the tavern.*

This chapter is great! I look forward to the special chapter that you have planned. Sorry it took so long to review. I haven't had access to the Internet for a few days now, and when I tried using my phone, it wouldn't let me submit a review. Nice work though!

Bravo. I really like this idea of wolf-men and the fact you're not using the term lycan or werewolf makes me very happy. I like the way you write. Your style is interesting and has enough little bits of humor thrown in that anything that could possibly get boring then becomes a place to put something funny. One thing that I noticed that i didn't really like was ... there are a couple of places that the sentences are so long winded that they were hard to follow. such as ... "I've always found the night to be peaceful in a way, despite the constant sound of heavy footsteps that were constantly made by the guards going up and down the hallway that was right outside my door." Another couple of things i like are ... 1. your use of description. You have such a wonderful way of describing things without making them seem long or too much to process. and 2. The idea of Orenda's tree. I dont even know why I like it so much. Most likely it is my love of fantasy that is causing me to like the idea so much. It's something new. What else can I say but I hope to be able to read more about it later.

Yes! An update! Especially since it was so good, I can't wait for more, and so far this story is really good! Keep it up!

*cough* *cough* good lady can you give an old women some water she is rather parched right now.

ah thank you good lady, now then i can speak. i believe we talked previously and again good story i thought brutus was going to come along but he didn't and i cant wait to meet the new girl ;) *cough* *cough* thanking for the water i am on my way to do other things i bid you good day.

*pulls cloak on and hobbles out of the room singing*

psst...*looks around under ger cloak* hows it goin? You missy are a very good writer. I could see everything that was happening and I give you a thumbs up. You know Orenda kind of reminded me of Pan in a way, ya know?

Maybe its just me but she did, and i'll be looking and hounding you missy if you dont update like you said you would :). *looks around again, gives a nod, and walks off like a crippled old lady*

The main character is a WOLF? Awesome! That is seriously cool. This story is off to a great start, so keep writing!
