Bayne entered his dorm room pulling leaves from his hair. Chad sat at his desk, an everquill gliding across a piece of parchment.
“Morning Hairy Butt,” Chad said in a cheery voice.

From time to time Bayne would come across others of his kind in the forest, which usually led to a skirmish for dominance. And that often led to a lurid tale the next morning. “No hot wolves. But I did meet a hot nymph.”
