Fall of a Kingdom and The Rise of the Wolf King

You ever had a day that left you speechless because it was so bad? That's what the last 24h have been for Mathew. The first thing that happened when he arrived home from a 3 month expedition that ended up lasting nearly a year because of an accident, sees him being arrested for desertion and tossed in prison. When he was questioned and explained that he was seriously injured in the wilds making it impossible to return, he was then given a pardon and commendations from the king. To bad when he gave his final report it was ridiculed as completely impossible. "Magic doesn't exist! Giant Wolves?! Are you insane? That's Impossible, and they talk to? You must have hit your head too hard." That's all he heard from everyone.
