In the process of writing this month’s Patreon exclusive, I got smacked with inspiration for two OTHER stories using the same monster!
This is one of them, with a new character we’ve never seen before, in an entirely new world, actually! It’s a little on the long side, as I got carried away with world-building, but I’m hoping to be able to come back here and write more stories with some of these characters in the future! Without further ado, enjoy!
Also, much thanks to @welwitschia for creating an aesthetic for my anon ask, which was a huge inspiration and will be reblogged alongside!
You were a reporter at the local paper, trying to make a name for yourself despite the fact that you were treated more like an intern than an actual writer. You’d been assigned to a story that nobody else would take, due to the failure of several of your colleagues beforehand to actually get anything on the guy it was about. Though, to be honest, you weren’t sure that was even possible.
You groan loudly as you read over the minimal files you’d gotten from your superior; a ring fighter? This was definitely out of your scope of knowledge. Your long-time manticore friend at the next desk over, Grant, glances at you, brow raised. You shake your head and wave him over to read the file on your desk. After a moment, he groans as well.
“Seriously? They’re sending you in to do this report with no prior knowledge of the sport?” his tail whips around angrily as he shoves his glasses back up his face. “You’ve got to be kidding me.”
“No, not kidding,” you mumble unhappily. “I mean, hooray for a story to get published with my name on it, but why did it have to be this?” You toss the folder on the desk with a sigh.
“How many have been sent before you?”
