As the time went by, Aerendyl did the best he could to make each day as normal as he could. But as each day passed by, the lonelier and lonelier he would get. [color=0054a6]I hate this. I can't stand this feeling anymore.[/color] He slammed his drink down on the counter at an empty tavern. For onne day a month Danny would close down the tavern and he and Aerendyl would just talk throughout the day and night. Since it was never on a full moon that Danny closed down, Aerendyl had full control over turning into a wolf at night or not. [color=fff200]Aerendyl I really don't know what to tell you. I've never felt the way you do so my opinion wouldn't really matter all that much. You seem to be doing well though making your days go by in a normal way.[/color] Danny placed a card down on the table. Card games were one of the things the two of them really enjoyed. Of course they had the video games ready to go too, but a little betting on some cards was always fun. Most of the time the two of them were very drunk by the time night fell. Just like the rest of the last month though, this time was different.

[color=0054a6]Danny everything is changing for me now. This last full moon I didn't even turn. I had full control. Though when I did the pain in my chest was so great I had to turn back. I haven't hunted in days and I'm starving, but each time I turn into a wolf it hurts. I can sometimes smell her too. I've followed the smell once and I know were she lives now. If I showed my face around there, I would be slaughtered in a second.[/color] Aerendyl placed his card down in turn then made himself another drink. Since the time he let himself go, he hadn't had to much to drink. Danny stayed by his word though and gave him free drinks. 

[color=fff200]Aerendyl you can't do this to yourself. You've got to go out there and hunt. There are plenty of deer and moose out there for you to take and it wouldn't even take you that long to catch them. Look all I'm saying is you don't need to kill yourself over this.[/color] Even though Aerendyl knew Danny was trying to make him feel better, it didn't really help all that much. Aerendyl just shrugged though. He was really hungry. Maybe tonight he would change long enough to eat then go home. 

As the day continued, Aerendyl and Danny put way a ton of liquor and played a ton of games. Aerendyl didn't really feel any different from before, so he helped Danny get home and into bed. [color=fff200]Aerendyl![/color] Danny stumbled. [color=fff200]Get some fucking food tonight you asswhole. You may have out drank me this time, but next time I'm breaking out the good stuff. You know the illegal goods.[/color] Danny laughed and stumbled around his room until he fell flat on his face into the wood flooring. Aerendyl just laughed and placed Danny into his bed before leaving. After making sure everything was okay, he locked up the place and left. At this point it was night time and the area was full of life. All the sounds that could be heard felt very calming to the ear. 

[color=0054a6]I'll hunt tonight.[/color] Aerendyl spoke silently to himself. He took a bit of time to walk out of town, listening to the cicadas and crickets fighting out which one would be louder tonight. It was music to his ears. Once in the forest and away from the town light, Aerendyl started to transform into the werewolf he was. The sharp pain that was already in his chest at all times amplified making it a little bit hard to breath. This didn't stop the former king though. He pushed through the pain and started stalking the woods for some fresh meat. It didn't take to long for him to find a family of elk running around. Aerendyl stalked them for a bit before pouncing on the alpha male. Ripping the flesh from it's bones the elk made awful sound. Aerendyl didn't like this part of the hunt. It always made him feel like garbage. 

The rest of the elk ran off into the woods before Aerendyl was able to catch them. It was no matter. The pain in his chest was growing to great for him to bother to run after. Once he finished eating the main elk, he turned back into an elf. [color=0054a6]Thank you for this meal.[/color] he bowed to the dead remains for the elk then turned away to get home. His whole body was covered in blood from head toe. Elk wasn't his favorite thing to kill since the blood got all over him and felt sticky, but it was what he was able to have for the night and it filled him up for the time being. 

It maybe took about an hour or so for Aerendyl to make his way back. Since it was night, it wasn't much of a big deal if he took his time or not. As he got closer to his house though, the feeling in his chest started to fade away. He stopped briefly and sniffed around. [color=0054a6][i]Neveah.[/i][/color] He thought then booked it the rest of the way home. Once he saw his small cottage in sight, Aerendyl slowed down to a walk as to not make it seem like he was in a hurry. Neveah was already at his front door pounding on in vigorously. Aerendyl came up behind her slowly, wanting to take in as much as he could before speaking. 

[color=0054a6]Neveah?[/color] He said gently, still covered in blood. [color=0054a6]What are you doing here? I thought I'd never see you again.[/color]
