(Sorry for the long wait, Internet quit on me)

Jewl watched in confusion as the man she had known as her father stripped down in front of her. Still, it wasnt that big of a shocker for her, modesty didnt count for much when you had spent your whole life out in a forest with only one other person, she had seen her father naked before, in fact, she was more surprised when he stopped at his underwear, wondering what it is he was going to show her that required all of this.

Then it started, and her eyes grew wide in fear and awe. She had never seen a were before, muchless such a bizarre one, and the transformation itself was unsettling to say the least. She continued to watch throughout the ordeal, horrified as her once loving father turned amnesiac contorted, twisted and changed into a beast beyond imagination, unable to tear her eyes away despite the terror that coursed through her.

When at last the transformation ended and he stood before her in all his bestial glory, she almost couldnt breath and couldnt respond to his words with her own. Her legs felt weak, and indeed seconds later she found herself on her knees looking up at the monstrous, feathered creature. She couldnt believe her eyes, couldnt even comprehend fully what she was even then looking at.

"H-How?" She managed to gasp through trembling lips. Jewl had faced down bears, hunted mountain cats, and been chased by wild boars, but none of that compared to the creature she now faced.
