Ranger 2 - Strange Happenings

 

The next morning, Steve scouted around the Tower

Indeed the creature left footprints near the tower, walking away

Over the next few days, he ran into the creature several more times

Each time, it was as if the creature was watching him

It just walked by, as if doing it's own business

But it never attacked, ignoring Steve, but never avoiding him

After a while, Steve waved to it, showing it he knew he was there

But the creature never waved back. Steve decided to call it "Grendel" because it was so big and strong

Then there was an adult, male bear, which Steve called Ursa

He ran into it a few times over the days

Then there was Toothgnasher, as Steve named him. A adult moose

He ran into it several rimes, probably in rut

But the creature that bothered Steve the most was not Grendel, but Fenris, a werewolf, or perhaps a dogman

It was nearly as tall as Grendel, perhaps 9 feet tall

But like Grendel, he never attacked, but knew Steve was watching him. Steve watched the creatures for weeks, not seeing another person for as long
