Secret Cavern Pack

You walk through the densely wooded forest, cautious of what you may find. You turn your head to the sound of a faint howl due north and you follow it, your curiosity peaking. As you pass by a trickling stream, you hear the same faint howl but coming from the south. You shake your head in confusion and turn around to follow the howl again.

After walking for what seemed like hours, you hear the howl a third time, coming from the east. You growl under your breath, annoyed, but turn towards the howl. After weaving your way through overhanging vines and branches, you come to a small clearing that opens up to the sunlight. To your left is a small dip into the ground that opens into a wide cavern, the ceiling is Dripping with glow in the dark crystals and mirror-like stones imbedded into the walls.

You step out into the clearing and in front of you, lazing about under a large weeping willow, lies a midnight-black male wolf. Two small grey speckled pups play by his side. You turn towards the cavern entrance when out comes a dashing starlight-grey she-wolf, a white patch shaped liked a star on her forehead shines in the sunlight. Her eyes are a piercing blue as her gaze meets yours and she flicks her tail as she walks regally up towards you.

"Greetings," she barks. "I am Shiver of the Secret Cavern Pack. How may we be of service to you?"

You hesitate, not knowing whether or not to ask her your question and go on with your business. She smiles and wags her tail, "Don't worry, we are of no harm to you."

You nod, "Well, can you first explain who was howling just outside your den clearing?" you ask as Shiver leads you inside the cavern.

Shiver tilted her head, "Oh, you must ebe earing the howls of our ancestors. They lead any wolf to us if they are true at heart and worthy of our help."

You nod and cheer up at the idea of these strange wolves's ancestors and how they had approved of your arrival.

"Now," Shiver interrupts your thoughts, "What can we help you with?"
