Luthyr, a goat cleric, from the a small farming village gets accosted by a group of wolf adventurers on a quest into the Dimwood Forest. Unfortunately, trust and relations between the goats and wolves are very tenuous, and the wolves are very insistent on Luthyr's help in completing their quest. Luthyr finds himself having to re-evaluate what it means to be dutiful and keeping his oath, as he confronts both the dark shadow looming over the forest and his own preconceptions.
