Being a kitsune, especially one who eats souls you didn't actually require as much sleep as a regular human as you mostly ran off of magical energy but that only meant more free time. The question being? What to do? You didn't want to go asleep just yet, Lyaa was in the guest room for the night (For some reason Master and Lyaa don't sleep in the same room, were they that far apart or was it simply a cultural custom of this world?)
and Master Harauphar is presumably asleep.
As you think, a large rumbling emits from your stomach and you realize that the last time you had eaten was this morning. The rumbling continues and suddenly a large urge for souls dominates your mind. Your canines seem to sharpen and your claws almost elongate as your hunger grows, your black fur almost seems to form pointed spines and your four tails grow longer and thicker as your hunger grows, yet right now you don't seem to notice.
You exit the house through the rabbit hole and rush off into the forest, jumping over the fence as you easily hop and twist over any branch of root in your way. You concentrate and suddenly the dark forest is alive with the glowing of souls. Your regular vision is gone but you can still almost "see". You see the souls of the world around you only. the trees, the worms moving through the ground, the rabbits. Everything that is alive cannot escape your soul sight.
As you run, you briefly consider eating one of the rabbits but decide to hunt for something else. Ahead of you, you could faintly sense the souls of humans in the distance, not enough to pick out individual souls, but enough to recognize their presence. A town with a distance of an hour run if you go there. Perhaps there is an unlucky thief you could prey upon? However far west, even farther than the town, possibly miles away was another gathering of souls, even fainter, yet something seemed... off about them. You could barely tell they were human yet they seemed to be tainted almost. Tainted with magical energy not unlike the magical energy your Master used, yet this energy was more... spicy. It would take you hours to travel there, possibly even the entire night. Where should you go?
