Er. Grandmothers...?

[You know what, it's no stranger than the fat, weird magic man. He's sort of just accepting the local tales from others at this point. None make more sense than others. Nothing says wolves can't dress like old women, he supposes.

He means to add on there are plenty of stories where wolves are noble. Mostly written by yours truly, of course, if only because his specialty is metaphors that are a bit too on the nose.

However, her story intrigues him -- this one, at least, not the grandmother one.]
A giant wolf, you say...

[Is he contemplating it? Yes. A little. What better would protect his tavern? (Not that he has anything to fear. Here. In the Horizon.) And he does miss the wolf that had once traveled with him.

Besides, her story hits a rather poignant note. Wolves bringing about destruction and death? Killing loads of people? Ah, he's never heard that before.]
Mm. I wonder. People say plenty of things about the things they fear. Beasts and people alike. Besides, outside of the very mangy and desperate wolves, I find it hard to fear any beast with such soft paws.

[He's gotta squish a bean. At least one.]
