Belt of Blood

Few beasts were in Vale that day, but far too wily they were. Twas the second beast he had watched double back to cover his trail. Patient was Vincent, and now the beast headed down into a gully, and then vanished. A close inspection found a cave behind a nest of vines on the embankment. Vincent sat then and had a bit of Honey, then a bit of beer. Feeling refreshed, ye took the pelt of the squirrel he had ate for breakfast, and stuffed inside the tarball. A handful of dry leaves, a lock of his own hair, then squish it out along the whole of the whole the pelt. Light it afire and wait for it to burn, then into the cave she goes. At first none at all, then the beasts appear in one in twos. When he was spent of course the Alpha appeared. A gargantuan beast wearing a belt as if he were a man. Vincent held still as if stunned and the beast charged.

A dodge to the right and a backhand thrust found the neck of the beast. And thus the Belt of Blood passed again to man.
