Something to Write Home About
A young man wishes to change his fate and go off on amazing adventures, but his physical and mental stature seems to all but secure his fate as a fishmonger. Can a demon in the nearby woods give him the glory and excitement he craves?
There was a small village that sat next to the coast that was known for two things; the first was for some of the best fish and fishermen that could be found in the kingdom, and the second was that some of the finest heroes that had ever served the kingdom were born and raised there. Whether it was something in the water or perhaps that there was a magical aura in the area several champions had come from the capital with wonderous strength, amazing dexterity, or some other source of attribute that made them vital for the killing of monsters and the turning of the tide in battle. It seemed that for those who had the ambition they would either become great heroes or great fisherman.
For the young man known as Ferdinand it appeared that he was leaning heavily towards the latter. While he could finesse a fish into a net just as easily as his father however it was not the life that he had wanted to live and he would often dream about being plucked by the royal advisors that came through the town once a year in order to serve the capital as one of the protectors of the land. Unfortunately fishing appeared to be the only skill that he had latched onto as when he had attempted to enter into the training hall for potential heroes he found that his skills in fighting were severely lacking and he his bow skills were not much better. After about a year in the training hall the guild members there told him that he was not going to be chosen as a hero at all at this rate and that he needed to face the reality that he never would be.
It had been several months since that brutal rejection and as the trading vessel that he was on that went from his village to another one that was many miles down the coast he rested his head on the railing of the ship. "I've never seen someone stare so intently down at the water that wasn't trying to find the pole they had dropped in the water," a familiar voice said to him, Ferdinand looking up to see the smiling face of an elf standing there. "You've been quite gloomy as of late, are you still brooding over the rejection at the training hall?"
"It was sort of my big dream shattered into pieces," Ferdinand replied with a sigh. "I know that you wouldn't understand since you're probably going to be accepted into the ranger section of the training hall but that was a big deal for me. Not a single trainer said that I would be able to find a place in there."
The elf just patted the human on the shoulder and sat down next to him, and though Ranili had been his friend ever since they discovered one another in the training hall it didn't help to see him at the moment. He had been almost immediately accepted as soon as they saw him split his own arrow that he had previously fired into the bullseye and had attempted to help him with his own bow training so they could get into the same program. When Ferdinand hadn't gotten accepted into the program he had to go back to fishing with his father, which meant that the two hadn't seen each other until the ferry ride since Ranili had to get some supplies for his alchemist mother. The elf tried to joke that the only reason that they let him into the ranger program was because he couldn't catch a fish to save his life and reminded his friend of the time he had gone with him and his father only to fall off the boat when casting a net, but when Ferdinand looked over at him all he could see was his future that he wouldn't be allowed to have.
It still did lift his spirits a bit though to see Ranili and by the time the boat had landed he at least lost the dark cloud that had been over his head. The port town they were in wasn't very big but it had a direct line to the capital through the river that ran alongside it. It had to be small though due to the dense forest that laid to the north and the defensive provisions that had to be put into place to defend it. There was even a small garrison in an outpost that sat along the edge of the forest to try and keep anything from attacking the vital town, especially since there were rumors of everything from werewolves to demons that resided within.
But none of that concerned Ferdinand as he helped his father get the fish to the trader's guild to be weighed and paid for. He got to see the life of a fishmonger that he would soon adopt and it caused him to shake his head and ask to be excused before leaving the hall. Ranili was nearby talking to the reagent merchants and he asked the elf to accompany him out in the city. Once the two were near the outskirts of the gate that led to the forest the human finally sat against the wall and broke down, rubbing his hands against his face while his friend did his best to comfort him.
"Well well, what do we have here?" a voice that was not either of the two men said, both of them looking up and seeing someone staring down at them. Like Ranili he was elven and had on a garb of a hunter, though he didn't appear to have a bow or anything like the other elf as he smiled down at them. "Someone that forlorn must have lost something terrible, or perhaps it's because they were never able to get it in the first place?"
"Sod off, you creep," Ranili replied as the sudden appearance of another had caused Ferdinand to stop crying and was being helped up. "He's just having a bad day is all."
"Or perhaps he finds himself floating down a river to an end that he doesn't wish," the elf replied, and though Ranili was about to rebuke him again he found himself stopped by the human. "Ah, I see that he understands, there is not much one can do when facing against a strong current to get out of that situation. If, however, someone was to give them a branch so they could pull themselves a cross they may find that they could choose where they wanted."
"How would one do that?" Ferdinand asked before he felt his friend push him aside and get close to him.
"I wouldn't trust that one," Ranili whispered. "Someone like that is a snake oil salesman at best and a practitioner of the dark arts at worst."
"Perhaps you should let your friend here decide what he wishes to do," the elf said to Ranili before he turned to the other man. "I do know of someone that could change your fate, to make you into the stuff of legends that they would write songs and stories about. If that is what you want then follow this path to the fortress and take a left when the road turns right, from there if your desires are strong enough then the rest of the way will reveal itself to you. Word of caution though, once you get to the threshold you should go alone, they only do individual wishes."
As the two watched the other elf wave and go into the city Ferdinand found himself looking down the dirt path, one that led to the outpost and eventually the road to the capital. The stuff of legends... that was what he had desired, and if this person knew that then what's to stop whomever or whatever was at the end of the road from giving it to him? The ferry wouldn't be going back to their town until tomorrow anyway and though Ranili told him that such things were a fools errand and was possibly an ambush he knew deep down that he would try anything to change the course of his fate of being just a fishmonger. When he told the elf what he was going to do Ferdinand saw him sigh and say that if he was going to go off and get himself killed he wanted to be there to say he told him so, and though he told him it wasn't necessary Ranili just smiled and told him to lead the way.
The dirt road they took had them go close to where the woods were and as they traveled up a particularly large hill they could see the outpost in the distance where it bordered the southern most point of the forest. When they got to the bend that would lead to it however they stopped and looked around for something that the hunter indicated would show them the way, though Ranili had his bow drawn and ready just in case. At first nothing seemed to happen and as they walked towards the edge of the woods the elf mentioned that it seemed like a fool's errand after all. Ferdinand continued to look however and as he peered into the darkness of the forest he saw a shiny golden ball hovering in the air.
Though once more Ranili warned against following it Ferdinand knew that this was it, that this was the chance to get what he wanted from life as he pushed through the underbrush and began to follow it. With the idea this was some sort of ambush growing dimmer the elf put his bow away and just followed the human as more balls of light sprung up in a path until the two were deep into the shadows of the woods. He was much more thankful that his friend had decided to follow him since it would have been very possible he could have gotten lost if this did turn out to be nothing, although after about an hour of following they suddenly found themselves looking at a rather large and nice cabin in the middle of the woods.
The door was only a few feet away but as Ferdinand was about to step forward he felt himself get pulled back by Ranili who gave him a stern look. "You know that if you go in there I can't follow," Ranili said. "The one thing that's worse of crossing paths with a magical creature such as this is to run afoul of them. But that means that if you go in there I can't protect you."
"Yeah, but it also means that if everything comes to pass I won't need your protection anymore," Ferdinand replied as he patted the hand of the elf so that he would let go. "I want this so bad Ranili, and so far everything that hunter said has come to fruition. I may be putting myself in danger but that's what heroes do, and if I want to become one someday I have to see this though."
While it was clear from the look on Ranili's face that he still didn't like the prospect the elf let Ferdinand go, who just gave him a reassuring nod before heading up to the door. Even before he knocked it swung open as though to beckon him forward, and though he could feel the eyes of his friend staring at the back of his head he took a step in anyway. As soon as he cleared the threshold the door slammed shut once more, prompting him to yelp slightly as he peered into the darkness. For the first time since he had gotten the directions to this place he began to wonder if this was a good idea as he made his way through the narrow hallway into the room beyond.
"It appears that I have a quest," a light, smooth voice said as Ferdinand got into what he believed to be the living room and saw that someone sat there in the darkness as though waiting for him. A drow... as soon as the other one in the space lit a candle with a snap of his fingers he could see the light glint off the ebon skin and silvery hair, though it was a bit of a surprise to Ferdinand since most tended to live in the more mountainous regions further inland. "To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?"
As the human's eyes got more adjusted to the light he saw that the dark elf was naked, and though he looked rather normal he could start to see things that belayed that particular notion. The biggest was the fact that nestled between his legs was a huge cock that had to have been a foot long soft and while humanoid in nature also had a medial ring and thick girth like that of a horse, and as he saw that there were a pair of black antlers that stuck out from behind his ears and he had the hooved feet of a deer he knew that this was no ordinary drow. "You're... you're a demon, aren't you?" Ferdinand asked, the drow chuckling and looking at him with purple eyes while giving a small nod. "They said demons resided in the forest."
"Yes, they were right," the demon replied. "If you would like I could make my form more monstrous, though I think that might upset your fragile mortal sensibility. The fact that you haven't gone running from this room means that my nature is not enough to dissuade you from the reason you wanted to see me, so go ahead and tell Nival what you desire the most."
"I... I wanted so badly to be a part of the heroes that our town have forged," Ferdinand replied, finding the words tumbling out of his mouth before he had a chance to stop them. "But I am not strong, I am not agile, I am not a tactician. There seems to be only one good thing that I can do and that's catch fish, but I can't do it, I can't live that life when I know that there's so much more out there for me than the quiet and boring life of a fishmonger."
"I see, a bit different than the usual desire that I see," Nival replied with a fanged grin. "Normally those that would seek out a creature such as me wants power, and though that is similar to what you want what you actually seem to crave is glory and excitement. Am I correct in assuming this or have I gotten you wrong?"
It took Ferdinand a second to think about it but he realized that this creature was speaking the truth, while he could make good money as a successful fishmonger and even have a bit of power what he really wanted was the fame that came with being a hero of the realm. "Yes... I want everyone out there to know my name," Ferdinand once more found himself blurting out. "I want to be the greatest out there with a legacy that most will only wish they could challenge. I don't care that you're a demon, if you do this I would lay my very soul forfeit to get what I need to make this happen."
For a moment there was a pause as the demon seemed to look him over, and though those eyes merely glanced up and down it was like he was staring into the very core of his being. "Blind ambition, intense desire... yes, I think that this will work quite well," Nival said with a small chuckle. "Very well Ferdinand, I will grant you what you most desire, but in order to do that you're going to have to accept me into you. Once you have been fully hilted we can begin the process to make you the greatest in the land."
At first Ferdinand was confused on what the demon meant, at least until he saw the thick cock between the demonic drow's legs. He found his jaw dropping slightly at having to do such a thing but before he could even think about it he started to strip himself of his clothing. Deep down he knew that this demon could give him what he wanted and he wasn't going to let something like that stop him, even as he saw it start to stiffen and grow even larger while watching him reveal his somewhat thin body. Even his long days spent on the boat hadn't caused him to grow much and he hoped that was one of the things that would change as he started to approach the drow once he had gotten naked.
When he got to where the drow sat it was clear that the demon wasn't going to lift a finger in order to aid him in the process, though he could see that the flesh of the huge member glistened in the light of the candle like it had been already lubricated. Nival was going to make him do this himself as a means to show just how dedicated he was to this, the human thought to himself as he slowly turned himself around. Even though he had just been promised what he desired most part of him wondered if this was a trap, especially since he was making a deal with a demon after all. But even in this moment when he knew there was no turning back and the head of that cock that jutted out from the drow's groin brushed against his flesh he knew that even if there was a slim chance that this would work he would take it to change his fate.
There was only a moment's hesitation before Ferdinand started to push himself down against the head of the huge cock beneath him, and though he had braced himself for the stinging pain that would have likely come with such an insertion the only thing he found was pleasure waiting for him. It was like the demon's cock was made for this and once he gotten the head in it started to feel like it was sucking him down. It didn't help that he felt those slender but also strong hands press against his inner thighs as though to goad him on. While he had only done it in order to get the strength that he was seeking he couldn't deny that it also felt strangely good, especially as the head bank deeper inside of him and he felt his own member start to stiffen.
When it got to the halfway point though Ferdinand had to stop in order to let himself rest; even with whatever powers the demon had to make it so that it wouldn't hurt he could feel himself being stretched to the limit. As he panted heavily while he rested he could feel the fingers that had been teasing his legs and groin slide upwards, one of them starting to stroke against his cock while the other went up to feel the bulge that his cock had made from being so deeply inserted. "Not bad, young mortal," Nival said as he nibbled against the shoulder of the sweating human. "You managed to get yourself halfway down just on sheer determination and will alone, all you have to do is get the rest of the way and all your fondest dreams will be fulfilled."
"I have to... get all the way down?" Ferdinand replied in shock. "There's... there's no way, my body can't... it's so big. I feel like you're about to rip me in two..."
"I have heard that before," Nival replied with a chuckle. "Fortunately you're far enough in that we can get you started, and all you really need to get more of me inside is to give yourself a little extra room. I'm sure that you've already noticed the changes starting..."
Up until that point Ferdinand hadn't been really paying attention to his own body given that he was trying to pull nearly a foot and a half of demon dick inside of him, but as he looked down at those clawed fingers he saw more than just the swelling of the demonic cock inside of his body. It was subtle at first but he could see that his flat stomach start to shift and more bumps appeared than just the one created by the man behind him. He let out a soft groan as he could not only feel his muscles growing but the strength that came with them as his sides stretched in order to accommodate his new washboard abs while his pectorals filled out to follow suit.
"It's really happening," Ferdinand said with glee as he saw his own cock grow longer and thicker, which while it hadn't been his priority he found himself lusting over it. "I can feel the strength, the power..."
"Yes, with my aid you will be an unstoppable force in this kingdom," Nival stated as he watched the man become more interesting in his thickening thighs then the fact he had started to slide down further on the cock or that his butt was starting to grow larger around the fat shaft it was stretched around. "You will be known far and wide on the lips of peasant and king alike. Heroes and adventurers from all around will flock to you..."
Ferdinand let out a snort of approval as the demonic shaft inside of him continued to stretch out his insides as even with the growth of his frame he saw more of it pushing his increasingly muscular chest out while his body grew. With the combination of the pleasure that came from being impaled combined with his growing strength he felt like he was about to orgasm right there as he felt his arms and legs grow in order to match the rest of him. It was like they were being filled as a wave of muscle cascaded down them and when it reached his hands and legs he found himself able to touch the floor and support himself so that he could flex his new biceps. It was everything that he had ever wanted and as he approached the hilt of the demon's cock he knew that with the power that flowed through his form they would be begging for him to join the warrior program.
As he started to feel his backside brush up against the stomach of the drow however he felt something strange just above where he was almost completely bottomed out, and at first he thought it was just new muscle being added to his lower back before it started to feel like his spine was being pulled on. As he began to pant from the building of pleasure in his body it felt more and more like he was being stretched, and when he finally looked back he let out a deep, throaty grasp that accompanied his transformation as he saw the numb of flesh growing out more and more. It looked like a tail, though he had no idea why it would be growing out of him until he leaned back when he felt his fingers twitch and saw the flesh start to darken and look almost rubbery.
"Wh-what's going on," Ferdinand said as he started to feel panic among the pleasure, especially as his face started to feel swollen and when he brough his hand up he found that his teeth had started to grow sharp. "This... this isn't what I wanted..."
"I think you'll find yourself quite mistaken," NIval replied as he smirked when Ferdinand tried to pull himself off of the demon's cock, only to find that it had grown even more inside of him and practically pulled him back down until his thick rear was pressed flush against the supple flanks of the creature he was quickly outgrowing. "You wanted fame, recognition, notoriety... I am simply making that happen. Soon you will be one of the most powerful and feared monsters in the kingdom, a leader of your kind as you terrorize the coast that you so desperately wanted to escape from."
Ferdinand's eyes practically bulged out of his head as he could feel more changes happening to his head, but even with his newfound strength he couldn't pull himself off the cock that continued to mutate his body. His entire form quivered as more muscle grew on him while he felt the flesh between his fingers and toes rise up to give him new webbing. As he examined himself and saw that his tan flesh was turning white and black in nature he knew that he had seen this patterning before, although it wasn't very often his father had warned him to be weary of the orcas they saw because they were fierce predators. A fierce predator, the demon was making him into a monster and as he felt something push out from his back that was forming into his dorsal fin all new instincts were beginning to swirl around in his lust-addled mind.
While Ferdinand initially feared becoming a dumb snarling beast like the stories that he had been told he found that his intellect had actually started to sharpen, and along with it came a cold, calculating instinct that told him that he would be the apex predator of the sea and coast. As his face continued to lose his humanity and he grew even bigger he found himself enjoying the idea of being a hunter of men instead of just a hunter of fish. As he flexed his powerful pectorals and let out a growl he knew that anyone who dared stand before him would find their place at his feet... or perhaps with him between their legs. As his tongue stretched out and he let out a low grown the corruption of the demon settled into his monstrous form and he found that his benefactor had given him something more than just a new exceptionally powerful body, but also an ability that would put him among the most feared and spur on a new reign of terror...
Meanwhile Ranili continued to watch the house nervously as he ran a finger along the string, waiting and hoping that his friend was alright. With the canopy so thick he couldn't tell how much time had passed but he knew that it was starting to get dark. If his friend didn't get out soon he would have to make some sort of camp and hope that the creature within didn't mind it. As he continued to wait though he heard something behind him that caused him to spin around while grabbing an arrow from his quiver.
As soon as he got up from his crouching position however he felt a strong hand wrap around his bow hand and yank it, knocking the weapon loose and causing him to be whipped around. With his acute eyes he could see that whatever had grabbed him was massive and clearly not human, but as he tried to wiggle out of the monster's grasp he found himself unable to do so. "Unhand me now!" Ranili shouted, but as he grabbed for the dagger hidden in his boot he gasped when the monster reached down first and took it out before flinging it aside. "What the hell are you?!"
"Ranili..." the orca monster growled in a voice so deep it reverberated through him. "Don't you know your old friend?"
At first the elf didn't believe it but as he looked into the almost glowing red eyes of the orca he found himself gasping as he realized it had spoken his name. "By the gods..." Ranili said once he had managed to wrap his head around the fact that the massive smirking creature was once his human friend. "Ferdinand?"
"It's Finn now," Finn said with a grunt as he shifted his hands so that they were grasping around the elf's head instead of restraining his wrists. "It's time to fulfill my destiny, and you will be the first to join my army of monsters as my lover and mate." As Ranili opened his mouth to respond a look of shock went over the elf's face as he suddenly found his mouth filled with the tongue of the other man as he felt the skin of his cheeks hardening. He had been so engrossed with the creature in front of him that he hadn't noticed where he had initially been grabbed that scales had formed and claws grew from his fingernails.
The transformation was becoming far more drastic where their inhuman kiss was though as the elf's face began to contort and morph from the corruption spreading on it. Finn watched in eager anticipation as his features twisted and his face swelled, watching the sea-foam green scales spread as his teeth poked past his lips as they sharpened into fangs. He could already sense the powerful venom that was starting to be produced within them and as the toxic green liquid dripped down onto his chest the muscles of the other man practically exploded out while scales spread like wildfire. Soon Ranili would be no more, he would have the serpent known as Rain that would further swell their ranks from the poison that he would drip onto his arrows that would quickly mutate those that he struck.
There would be no ranger training for the former elf, Finn thought to himself as he watched the clothing rip and tear from his increasingly muscular form, but he would serve a far greater purpose by his side. For the moment however the demon had given him something other than just his body and the power to transform others into monsters as he grabbed the other man just beneath the tail that was starting to stretch outwards, he had also gotten an insatiable lust. Perhaps he could capture some humans in order to spitroast them and watch them transform, but for the moment he was fine with the other monster that he had created as he slipped his cock into the other man's hole. As they began to fuck in those woods they were only vaguely aware of the demon watching them with eager interest as they would soon spread their reign of terror out past this forest to become truly terrifying legends that adventurers would eventually seek to stop...
