Candor the Fox
To humans, daemons are simply monsters; worse than animals, violent and feral. They are beasts, no matter how human they can appear. Daemons feel no better about humans. To them, humans are savage brutes, greedy and destructive. The animosity between the races has gone on for generations, with pointless acts of violence between them. No one knows who started it all, but it probably won't end any time soon. That is just the way things are, after all. It is only natural that daemons hate humans and humans hate daemons.
As for Candor, he doesn't know much about those things. He is simply a little fox, who was found in the woods as a kit and raised by Grandfather. He just likes to eat and sleep, and play with Anthony, who came to live with Grandfather so he could go to school in the village. Anthony soon becomes his world, his playmate, his best friend, his everything.
But sometimes, he can't help but feel a little lonely. Anthony goes to school all day, and he talks and laughs and plays with the other children...
Sometimes, Candor wishes that he could be human too.
He never expected that wish to come true.
