[The werewolf really was just a coincidence.

After a particularly strenuous trip back a couple of thousand years, Idris had needed more than her usual amount of time to rest, and that left Oswin and the Doctor stuck for a day or two in the village where they'd landed. And, of course it just happened to be one that was being terrorized (supposedly) by a werewolf. Oswin hadn't actually heard of it attacking anything more than a couple of sheep, so she doubted it'd actually terrorized anyone just yet.

Still, it was a magical creature, and there was nothing better to manage a magical creature than a mage of her caliber. Or, at least, that was what the Doctor told her, and considering that ego-boosting happened to be one of Oswin's weak spots, she'd agreed to go have a look.

With a ball of light that hovered just over her open palm illuminating her path, she headed into the dark forest that surrounded the little town. The full moon overhead did its best to provide light, but the branches and leaves were thick here. Best to keep to her spells just in case. Being stuck in the dark in a place haunted by a werewolf did not sound like a good place to be, even if she did have magic on her side.]

[Jenny wasn't born like this. She wasn't meant to be a wolf, it was just something that had happened in her lifetime.

There was no changing it, not really. There were a few rumors of cures, but Jenny wasn't even sure if she believed them. Not that it mattered anymore. The wolf was part of her.

Running free and wild beneath the moon, she loved it. Ears quirked for any sound, she listens to the sound of her four paws hitting the ground, the beating of her double hearts, the other animals backing away in fear of her.

Another sound brings her to a halt, and the wolf quirks her head curiously. A human, daring to enter the forest on a full night? She tilts her head back and howls, half-hoping to scare whoever it is off. She has good control over the wolf, but full moon is always a dangerous time.]
