The Unicorn was, of course, a mythical beast that Gary had heard of. Just like the tales of Werewolves, these were also talked about to children. However, there was a large difference in how both of these tales were told.
Unicorns were seen as a beautiful, elegant creature with magical powers. They weren’t often what one would imagine when thinking of a strong, powerful being. Whereas Werewolves were mostly seen as vicious creatures that had great strength and power.
‘I have to be on my guard still though. Mythical creatures are mythical because we learned that these fairy tale stories came from somewhere, and they came from the beasts of the past that used to roam on Earth.’
‘Beasts that were so strong that their stories were still passed on to this day. I have to be cautious and not think of the image in my head, they could be able to do anything.’
