Chapter 26 - A taste of power.

The new day dawned, the first rays of sunlight filtering through the blinds of his motel room. But instead of bringing with it a sense of renewed energy, the morning only served to amplify Tyler's growing unease. He felt a strange disconnect from the world around him, a sense of unease that gnawed at him from within.

The full moon, looming closer with each passing hour, cast a long, ominous shadow over his mood. He felt like a puppet on strings, his life dictated by forces beyond his control. The transformation, the encounter with the First People, the strange incident in the forest – it all felt like a series of events orchestrated by some unseen hand, a grand design in which he was merely a pawn.

He tossed and turned, unable to shake off the feeling that he was being manipulated, that someone, or something, was manipulating the course of his life. The thought of the impending full moon only served to intensify his anxiety. He knew, with a chilling certainty, that the next few days would be a test, a trial of his will, a battle against the beast that lurked within.

He got out of bed, the floor cool beneath his bare feet. He felt restless, agitated. He needed to move, to burn off the pent-up energy that was coursing through his veins. He decided to explore the city further, to immerse himself in the vibrant culture of the First People, to try and forget, if only for a short while, the impending threat of the full moon.

He stepped out of the motel room, the city awakening around him. The sounds of the city – the hum of traffic, the chatter of vendors, the distant wail of a siren – washed over him, a cacophony of noise that both soothed and unsettled him.

He took a deep breath, the air thick with the scent of spices and exhaust fumes.

He decided to check his stats before leaving the streets."

While being satisfied with his stats, he quickly heard some footsteps running towards his location. He decided to turn and fight, but it was Dorothy running towards him. He lowered his guard and asked, 'How is he?' She burst into tears, thanking him for what he had done for her and said, 'Her brother wishes to see his savior.'"

The both of them strolled down the streets heading to the north. While arriving, he could see the cottage. Although they didn't have a currency, the cottage looked poor. And behold, a dark-skinned boy, about 25 years old, stood at the entrance, bowing at a 60-degree angle.

'Welcome to our humble abode,' he said. 'Come in, for I have been eager to speak to you.'

Tyler felt welcome and was led to their living room. Tyler was served a fire fruit, which was new to him. And Tom decided to try it, finding it surprisingly sweet and juicy."

"After having a little snack, Tyler asked, 'Have you felt any difference in your body?'

And Tom replied, 'Yes, I seem to crave meat. And when I went hunting, I was able to take down half of a horde which I couldn't yesterday. And that's why I called you. What have you done to me?' He asked, concerned for his own well-being.

Tyler smiled and told him, 'After tomorrow, you would know what you are... if you survive.' Tyler stood in front of him, leaving the cottage and headed towards the mayor's office."
