Reagan's village has been tormented by a demon bear for centuries. The animal form of a powerful sorcerer, the bear has brutally killed any who tried to defeat him. Every sacrifice the village has given to appease the bear has ended in bloody failure. Now, it is Reagan's turn. Will she meet the same horrible fate as all the others? Or will the monster want something far different from her?


Review: So I wasn’t really prepared for this short. I expected the wizard to turn back into a man at the end, but that didn’t happen. Which means it gets a little weird toward the end, yes that’s a spoiler, but you should know what your getting into. I didn’t and boy oh boy was I surprised. It was a nice story, but the end… I mean if your into that sort of thing then more power to you. The down side is this is a short story, it what I call a wham-bam thank you ma’am. It leaves you wanting more. There are so many questions left unanswered like why is the wizard terrorizing the village, why a bear, why Reagan?  This would have been a great first chapter or few chapters but as a whole story I was left wanting to know more about the plot.
