Lenya had learned early that she had a knack for words; a light tongue, as the Elder called it. She cherished her ability to turn a phrase, or ramble off long tongue-twisters that villagers, let alone other Descendants, couldn't even attempt - and she loved it. She wasn't very sturdy, and often needed escorts out of the village; One of the frequent body guards was a Huntress named Janna, a tall brunette that tried her best to keep Lenya safe, often leading to arguments between the two on how to best keep the half-elf from hurting herself. It was during one of these spouts that they met the Loup people.
Lost in the forest, Lenya did her best to bicker with the Huntress, who tried to keep her quiet, not wanting to draw the attention of any predators - but they were far too late. Wandering into another part of the forest, they sprung a trap, and were quickly surrounded by canine men and women. Partly fearing they were the rumored beastmen, Lenya began to talk quickly, and soon found they were something completely different - an intelligent race, who believed in honor above all else. They gladly helped Lenya and Janna back to their village, and invited the two to visit them at any time.
She hadn't taken the Loup up on their offer; and that had been months ago. Now, with the Elder's desperate plea, Lenya felt that it was time to ask the creature's for help. Janna had gathered with the villagers, but looked rather disinterested in going out and adventuring...
