Last time on "The Chronicles of Sypher and Bogart": Our dark elf ranger and his hellhound companion Bogart, with the unexpected aid of the demoness Estry, found themselves in a race against time. They set out to stop a mysterious hermit from performing a malevolent ritual that would amplify the curse of lycanthropy in a group of werewolves. The tension was high, and as an eclipse began to obscure the moon, the trio devised a daring plan to distract the werewolves while Sypher would attempt to interrupt the ritual.
