Into The Wildlands: Chapter V - Out And About

Into The Wildlands: Chapter III - Meet The Family
The path through town to the farm was like a walk of shame for both Will and Erik. Erik, for being the human, the most reviled creature around, and Will, for having to babysit him. Erik tried to avert his eyes from most of the denizens glaring at him,...
