Wolf in Merchant's Clothing
![]() |
Not Everyone Is As They Seem
Many moons ago¸ an ambitious family of merchants with new wealth sought to expand their reach. They quickly abutted Lord Alyx's dominion. Alyx¸ a very territorial noble¸ wished nothing more than to maintain their keep. So¸ they did what any conniving aristocrat would do and tricked the family with a false trade deal. Instead of meeting their contact¸ the family was greeted by a pack of werewolves.
With the family's "mysterious” disappearance¸ Lord Alyx has let down their guard. They now rest at ease in their estate¸ where they await the arrival of a small merchant caravan. However¸ the child of the scorned family¸ fueled by revenge¸ has decided to masquerade as one of these merchants to get close enough to Lord Alyx to avenge their family.
