Survival of the Fittest
He leaped up, teeth bared, growl coming from deep within his ribcage. Three bodies already sprawled along the walls of the den. His mother had been taken away some time ago. Food enough for one was promised; but only for one. Meeting the eyes of his enemy, he pounced. At the same time, his enemy launched towards him. They met in a whirling mass of teeth and claws. Pain swept through him, claws had pierced his defenses. Still, he wriggled and gained purchase on his enemy's hide. Shortly, one more body lay at his feet.
Two more litter-mates remain...

I think this is amazing. So horrific and so wicked.

Thanks Oshun. I was hoping to grasp the pain that the dark imposes on its servants. I'm glad you think I succeeded.

I think this is a very strong piece. How difficult it would be for a warg to overcome such an early conditioning! But perhaps not impossible, for if their nature were evil to begin with, the conditioning would not be necessary...

Thank you so much, Himring. I admire your writing so much, it is a joy to have had you read and review my little drabble.
