Wolf Huntin'

by Wenlin Bluebeard

Arr! Der be more than one way to skin a wolf!

Arr! So 50 years ago, it was, I was with mah old matey's out doing our favorite sport o' wolve huntin', those wolves tasted mighty fine seasoned with orange juice...as long is it didn't com' from' Boon, alla his orange juice is'a poison. So anyway'sa, we had all da fanciest tools and mages with our huntin' party, and da woods was just FULL of wolves! They'sa were tough killin', but we were experts at da craft! Wit' er spears and magik missiles, we always had extra beef by night!

Now'sa, I'se not being very descriptive, am I? No but I did says it was tough, you had to kill da little furry varmints in just da right way er their blood would get everywher! And blood c 'ice storm' only good with prime cuts of fruits an' vegetablesis! Now listen, if you be usin' a spear, it gets a bit difficult now; you'sa must be working with a nice strong mate to take down a wolve with'a spear. Da key is ta' surround him, and then lop his head off when he'sa too busy chewing on yer partner's hand!

Arr now, if you have some rangers in yer hunting posse, that'll do you no good, them rangers and dru'ids wonts even lay a finger on an innocent wolve, except ta pet 'em, of course.

Shiver me timbers! Did I tell you about the time the nastiest, biggest, rabid wolf nearly took my face off? I tell you this so you'll's never makes the mistake I'sa did! Oy, so anyways, I got separated from my hunting party, but that's not the mistake, the mistake was, I only had a spear which I was'a still learnin' to use! But I tried ta' take on that wolve all by ma'self! Well I nabbed him in the side, but mah swing was a little wild, so when I was'a off balance
he tackled me! You see? Then he was tryin' to bite mah nose off, and would have taken my eyes out, if mah best warrior bud...we liked to call him Slice... didn't run over and chop 'im in two, with his weapon not even nickin' me!!

Arr, I'sa forgot the point of the story, its da' more than one way ta' skin a wolve. Now'sa, I bet'chall want to use yer perdy little knives made out of stone, and when your'sa offered one made from fine steel you reject it because, oh, 'you made it yourself', you'sa didn't buy it, no, you *made* it. Well, forgot where I was going with that...

But wait now! Drop that'a subject, but keep the knife, and we'sa return to skinnin' the wolve fer' its ferr. Now, one clue that you may never ever see put into effect, is to hold yer dagger in reverse grip, this helps very much in yer skinnin' art. And a second clue is ta' BE CARFUL! Do noh' rush yer skinning of da' wolf at all, it will result in time gone ta' waste and possibly damagin' yer dagger.

Da' second way to skin a wolf is however you want.

Now, after ya' take all the wolve skin off, you can put it on a stick an' hold it ove'a a fire if yer out campin', but if you'sa really want to enjoy the taste of wolve meat, swipe it from the Lunarou ovens. They'd never admit it but they COOK wolves in those ovens, the pasty filling? Wolve. The bread seasoning? Wolve. Now yes'a, filling isn't wolve meat, but did you look in da' secret oven? Bet'cha didn't. Huge slabs of wolve meat, jus' sittin' there waitin' to be eaten bah' someone lookin' for'a good tastin' food.

Hows's do I know abou' that? I once joined Lunarou...under the guise of wanting to uphold the law...but really, I had heard rumors about them cookin' wolve meat...so, I suppos' you'sa could say I was da' "official wolve meat
tester" of Lunarou, if you'sa catch my meaning.

Also try Lunarou brews, with added wolve alcohol to give it that special taste!


Disclamer: Sorry if I bored you with this overly silly story, its all fiction and just for a laugh.
