“The drug is called Soulvine,” the witch doctor explained. “It’s a creeping vine that, once ingested by a werewolf, rapidly creates a powerful addiction. This addiction alters werewolf behavior, making them irritable and aggressive as they constantly seek more Soulvine to alleviate withdrawal symptoms. Prolonged use can cause the wolf spirit to deteriorate.”

“From what I’ve observed, he should be fine. Did he show any discomfort during your journey back?”

I recalled our trip and noticed he’d had a few episodes but had gritted his teeth through them.

Lately, there’d been no signs of distress.

“Not really. Last time he had an episode, he toughed it out,” I said.

“Ah, Alpha Lance mentioned his severe withdrawal in Redwood City–he was banging his head and self- harming. But I haven’t seen that since I arrived,” I added.

Digby sighed. “The initial phase of withdrawal is the toughest, but the symptoms will gradually subside until it’s fully out of his system. This drug is harmful, and recovery will take time.”

“His stunted growth is due to malnutrition and the impact of the addictive substances on his young body,” he said, his tone heavy with empathy.

“Most people detoxing from Soulvine require werewolf healing techniques and medicinal support. That this child has endured it alone speaks to his remarkable willpower. With proper care and teaching once he recovers, he’ll surely achieve great things,” Digby assured me.

Hearing this, I could vividly imagine the agony Cedric must have endured during his withdrawal in Redwood City.
