Sun Bane Territory, located far north in the old Snow Fox Territories and just west of The Ice Wolves lands. It is here in a Snow Fox village of Frost Fire, so named due to cold winds give a feeling of being burnt by fire when it cuts through your Fur, a young Adult Ice wolf found himself in a state of awkwardness due to the differences in culture, customs and morality as he stepped into what he understood to be the towns Inn for a drink.

Honestly we was only expecting to see quiet drinking and maybe some songs and dance, like in his home village, but to his shock he came upon public drunken orgy of all sorts.

Not much was really know about the Ice Foxes, the Ice Wolves preferred they kept to their territories and they in turn would do the same. Only thing discussed about Ice Foxes in Ice Wolf conversation, was they were deviants, details vary from perverted activities to no respect for operations of genders. Just now the lone Ice Wolf realized there a lot of truth to what he heard.

"Oh my good gods..." He muttered wide eyed to himself as sat himself down at his table and watched a young vixen, probably too young for this sort of thing, crouch down to preform oral sex on a father and son who had propositioned her with their fully erect and espoused members.

Unashamedly she accepted and joyfully started sucking off the two as a third Tod approached her from behind, eased her rare up with his hand, positioned himself into a direct penetrating position from behind, moved her tail aside and inserted himself directly inside her without so much as a greeting.

He only response to his invasion was a loud joyful moan and on that note he quickly started thrusting his hips and starting pounding away at her backside. The farther and son seamed to get a kick out of it also and licked their chops as they watched the stranger mate with their vixen who was busy suckling away happily at their members.

The Ice Wolf had to force himself to break away from watching as his sense of morality was screaming bloody murder inside his head and his animal desire wanted to continue to watch the action. The barkeep approached, asked him his order and served him a mug of ale.

"Good gods...what have I walked into?!" He muttered to himself and took a shaky drink from his ale to settle himself down. He tried to look away in the opposite direction but to something much worse.

Two completely nude snow white fur tod were muzzle locked together and one had his hands wrapped around their fully erect members. Their members were pressed up hard against one another and pulsated joyfully from the passion of the moment. One of the tods noticed the Ice Wolf watching them with a wide eyed look of disbelief and smiled.

He whispered something in his partners ear who then broke muzzle contact to look at the Ice Wolf watching them. He smiled also and on that note he moved himself over so his back lined up with the wolf's sight, he then raised his tail up as his partner motioned for the wolf to come join them and then spared his partners butt cheeks, showing the wolf his fully exposed hole.

"Um...I...I..." The wolf muttered in a shaky voice as the two tods were inviting him over join them, one of inviting him to penetrate his parter and the other smiling playfully in a suggested 'Go ahead!' look.

"I better go!" He said as he quickly paid for his drink and proceeded to make a quick dash for the door only to see his pathway was blocked by a nude couple who were just about to ask the wolf something when he turned around to leave.

"Oh pardon me!" The tod said in a slightly nervous voice and in the Snow Fox language, "My female has always wanted to taste a wolf, is alright if she dose while I watch?"

'I'm sure I misunderstood that!' He thought to himself and replied in the foxes language he didn't understand what he had just asked. His ears shot straight up and his eyes were like two full moons when he heard the more explained version.

"SHE WANTS TO WHAT?!" He tried to shout but it more or less came out as a high pitched squeak. The vixen giggled and bashfully blushed.

"It's been my females greatest dream and when we saw you, we wondered if you could make it come true!" The Tod replied and the wolf, completely dumbfounded by the request found himself in a touchy situation.

True he could turn it down, however Snow Foxes are infamous for taking a hard grudge to rejected requests, especially when it involves their mates.

He then asked in a suspicious tone, "You are Okey with this? Letting your female preform oral on another male?"

The tod looked a little confused and replied, "Why wouldn't I? If my female wishes to try other males, why should I protest? I like watching it anyway!"

'Clearly no one told me this about snow foxes! It is no wonder no one back at the village ever talked about them much!' He thought to himself and thought hard on the situation.

"Um...could...could we...do this..." The wolf blushed red hot as he looked around at the public show of fornication going on. "Some other time maybe?"

The vixen gave a sad whine to which the tod smiled and said, "I understand, It was only a suggestion." On that they walked away to the other side of the room to join a waiting couple in a mate swap type thing.

He let out a long sigh of relief and just then a voice from behind said, "You're being very selfish just so you know." He turned around to see the barkeep take up the pitcher of ale and coin the wolf paid. "Selfish?!" The wolf snapped and continued, "Just because I turn down letting his female drink my seed?"

The barkeep just gave the wolf a weak sneer and said, "We do things differently here wolf, unlike your kind we do not deny our mates the right to find pleasure with others. Reason we unlike you don't go around killing each other like savages over so called ownership issues! Also this is a Sharing Hall, all those who come are expected to share themselves."

The wolf didn't know what to say, clearly there was a direct contradiction in ideas of morality. Where the wolf was thinking he was being moral, it turns out in fact he was being selfish and maybe even rude.

"Look..." The wolf said and continued, "I'm not going to be here long, I only stopped by for food, bed and drink. In fact, I think I'll be leaving right now!"

The fox twitched his ears and scoffed, "You won't be going anywhere for a few days wolf! The blizzard up north is deadly and won't be dying down for a long time! I'm sorry to say you are stuck here till then!" On that he walked off to tend to other duties.

The wolf paled and now knew he was in an exceptionally touchy situation. "Well..." He said to himself and looked out towards the ongoing orgy, "Guess it is alright...I mean...I don't..." He gulped, "I don't know!"

* * *

The Ice Wolves, unlike the Snow Foxes, followed a code of ethics and courting rituals that vary upon birth cast. A commoner like a farmer or laborer was arranged by their fathers to marry chosen mates of opposite genders only, wither they wanted to or not.

A Solider was allowed to marry any female of his choosing and allowed his rights to any concubines he brought home from war, however he was forbidden to touch any female married to another Ice Wolf.

Royalty on the other hand followed an exceptionally strict monogamist protocol, politically benefiting and complicated courting rituals that often lead deep rooted depressions and heavy substance abuse. Contrary to what is believed, being a royal meant you had sever restriction on your bedroom habits and you were policed at ever turn by unseen eyes.

Having been born a bastard, his father being unknown, this wolf unlike others was free to chose a mate for himself, however his selections more or less limited to widowers or the disowned who resort to desperate measures to keep themselves fed and housed.

Fed up with not being able to find work, the wolf left his village to head north through the Snow Fox lands in search for truth to the rumors of rare Sky Iron being abundantly scattered all over the untouched snow mountains. Just a handful of Sky Iron would set him up nicely for many seasons and he intended to seek his fortune.

However...

It appears he will need to adjust to the unknown and shocking customs of Snow Foxes, even if he's moral upbringing screamed no!

* * *

"Oh that's just not right!" The wolf muttered to himself as he winched watching one Tod mount another, who was currently mounting a vixen, and the Tod just went ahead and inserted himself right under the other ones tail.

The submissive Tod let out a loud gasp and moan as the other Tod pushed himself in deep, he looked over his shoulder and lapped at his nose before returning his attention to the vixen he had between his legs.

"You like watching I take it?" The barkeep said with an amused tone. The wolf looked over at the barkeep and asked, "Is that common? One male mounting another?"

The barkeep shrugged and said, "No more common then mounting vixens. It's quiet enjoyable if your partner dose it right, however it can be very painful if done wrong."

The wolf drew his ears back and asked, "Don't tell me you do that sort of thing?" The barkeep scoffed and said, "I've mounted and been mounted many times! Just because your kind believe males should only mount females, dose not mean we believe the same! You should try it!"

The wolf gave the barkeep a cold 'you cannot be serious' look to which to chuckled and said, "If you want to play only the dominate role, that is fine! Honestly we would expect nothing else from a big strong Ice Wolf like yourself!" On that the barkeep gave him a playful wink and flick of his tongue before walking off again.

"No, thank you but no way!" The wolf muttered with a disgusted tone and directed his attention to a hand woodcarving of two foxes making that was beautifully carved on the table he was siting at.

'Is this all these retched curs think of? Unlicensed carnal depravity?' He thought to himself as he traced the etching of the two lovers with the claw of his forefinger.

In his mind, he role played many scenarios of himself coming home with bundles of Sky Iron ingots and even a heroic image of himself decorated in armor made of solid Sky Iron and with a matching sword.

'Mmmmmmmmmm...' He moaned happily as he imagined himself walking into thd village looking like a legendary warrior and swarms of beautiful she-wolfs greeting him and running their hands all over his glistening armor.

"May I unsheathe your sword?" One imaginary she-wolf asked him and another asked, "Can I polish your spear?" He giggled to himself at the suggesting remarks within the questions and then a big brawny Ice Wolf male suddenly appeared and stood before him. "You going to stick me with that big sword of yours?" The male asked and suddenly in his minds eye, all the she-wolves vanished and only him and the other male was left standing. He then noticed his armor had vanished and that he and the other male wolf were both in the nude.

"I cannot wait to feel your steel run through me!" The male said in a seductive tone and approached. He could feel the heat radiate from his massive built body. "Do me!" The male said, "Do me in real good!" Just then the male moved forward to lock muzzles with him and in that spit second the shock snapped him out of his daydreaming and he jumped to his feet.

"BY MY ANCESTORS!" He yelled, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!" he found himself the center of the attention by countless surprised eyes, even the two tods who had propositioned him gave him a look that made him wish he could shrink down to the size of a mouse and scurry off to the nearest hiding spot.

"Um..." He said as his ears turn bright red and his heart starting beating so hard it made the Brest of blue tunic bounce. "I...It was...I mean...DAMN IT!" On that he made a run for the door and into the darkness of the on going snow storm outside.

"What's wrong with that brute?" One of the Tods asked the Barkeep and another asked, "Why is he so selfish?" Another asked. The barkeep sighed and said, "Ice Wolves and their senseless sense of morals! It's a no wonder they fight more with their own kind then any other species!"

* * *

Foolishly the wolf had giving into his panic and ran blindly through the snow storm and far away from the town of Frost Fire. The wind was very harsh, even by an Ice Wolf's standards who were not strangers to harsh winter like conditions.

He wandered around blindly, trying desperately to relocate the fox town and or some shelter to take refuge till the storm lets up.

'Can't breath!' He thought to himself as he was slowly succumbing to hyperthermia. He was exhausted from shivering and the cold air was being more and more difficult to breath by the second.

'It's over...' He thought and collapsed to his knees, 'I'm done for!' He was too cold and exhausted to care, all he wanted was for it to be over and on that he fell forward and awaited the end to come.

A brief moment passed when suddenly strange warm hands invaded under his neck to sense his pulse. "Still alive?!" Said a very gruff masculine voice and suddenly the hands pulled him up from the snow. His eyes were frozen shut and he could see who it was who was handling him.

"Not breathing!" The voice said and to his surprise, warm wet lips locked with his in a kissing like fashion and a breath of hot air was forced into his lungs. The warm air stung his cold lungs and he instantly started coughing.

"Ice in lungs you have!" The voice said and he struggled to take a breath on his own, it was as if his lungs were filled with cotton.

"Relax!" The voice said and once again warm lips locked with his and hot air are forced into his lungs. "I'll breath for you!" The voice said and again the lips locked with his and another breath of hot air filled his lungs.

The wolf moaned unhappily for he was completely miserable due to the cold. Thanks to the unknown stranger brief moment of breathing for him, he eventually he started breathing steadily on his own. A cloth like meterial was wrapped around his muzzle and over his nose.

"Warms the air, breath slowly friend!" The voice pointed out and he was in no position to argue. The only reply he gave was a distressed whine and moan.

"Don't die!" The voice said and to his surprise, very strong arms looped under his knees, shoulders and lifted him up like he was nothing.

"Mmmmmmm?" The wolf hummed as to though ask what is going on. "Don't die!" The voice said again and from the rocking motion he was feeling, the stranger was carrying him as he walked. "Home not far! Food and warm spirits I have! Don't die!"

'I'll try not too!' He answered in thought, for he had no way to speak due to the cold and the cloth wrapped tightly around his muzzle to keep him from suffocating again to the lethal cold air.

* * *

It wasn't long until the smell of cooking meat filled his nostrils and the sound of another voice, female, asked, "Wolf dead?" The male voice answered, "Almost! I save! Wolf so cold still!"

"Give wolf!" The female said and ordered, "My turn! You save enough! Go eat!" He then felt himself being handed over to someone else, who wasn't as strong as the first, but strong enough to carry him over and laid him on a bed like place.

"Won't live long!" The female said and to his surprise he felt someone start to undress him.

"Hmmmmm?" He moaned and thought, 'What do you think you are doing?! Stop it!' However his body was still very cold and was too weak to protest.

When the last of his clothing was stripped off he felt very warm hands rub up and down through the fur on his body, no doubt an attempt to help his circulation, but the gesture was unwelcome to say the least. He tried to growl in protest, however it came out as more of a cat like purr.

"Wolf likes? Yes?" The female said with a chuckle and in an amused tone. "Good! Wolf will like what comes next!"

'STOP TOUCHING ME!' He yelled at her in his mind and tried to open his eyes, but a seal of ice was still holding them closed.

A little while later he felt the females hands take hold of his loins, mainly around his sheathed member and with a tight grip she started stimulating him till he was hard.

He tried to growl his protest but all that came out was a strange sounding purr. "Nice!" The female said and pulled back the skin of his sheath, all the way back past his knot. "Relax wolf!" She said to him and stroked the fur of his neck as he attempted to struggle.

"Warm you I must!" Just then a heavy body straddled his hips and he felt his espoused member slide gracefully inside a warm wet canal.

'Oh...my...GODS!" He yelled in his mind and tried to force his eyes open, the adrenaline rush from the shock of realizing the female stranger is right now having intercourse with him was enough to force his left eye open. His vision was very blurry and could only see shadowy shapes.

The female leaned forward, pining him down by his shoulders so he wouldn't struggle so much and ran a wet warm tongue over his forehead. "I like wolves!" She whispered to him and eased herself back and forth over his groin, his member engorged itself to full size and his knot locked itself in tight.

"Mmmmmmmm!" She moaned and pulled upward to fell the tension of his knot as it was held tight inside her. "Yes! Yes I like that!" She said and giggled. She licked his forehead again and laid gentle kisses around his face.

The wolf had to admit, since she took him inside herself, he warmed up real fast and was already starting to feel strength return. Also...he had to confess he was really enjoying every secound of it even though he didn't want to!

"Wh...wha...what...you...doing?" He forced himself to ask in a weak whisper like tone that was barely understandable. The vision to his eye eased into focus and the first thing he saw was a bare and lushly exposed female breast with dark fur.

He gave a quiet moan and smiled upon realizing what it was he was looking at. 'By the gods! She's very well endowed!' He couldn't resist taking a quick peek at its twin which was not too far away and both were swaying back and forth before his nose.

'These are the most beautiful things I have ever seen!' He thought to himself and couldn't resist giving them a lap from his tongue.

The female giggled at feeling his tongue touch her sensitive nipples, she then stopped for a moment and eased herself down to allow him better access.

'Oh gods yes!' He thought and locked his lips around her left nipple and give it a gentle suckle. The female gasped and moaned happily as he did so. "Good...Good!" She muttered and he turned his attention to its twin and give it equal attention.

'I'm in paradise!' The wolf thought happily to himself as he suckled upon the strange females breasts and savored the sensation of her loins embracing tightly around his deeply embedded knot.

'God I hope she's got a gorgeous face to go with these heavenly tits!' He thought and looked upward to try and see her face.

He couldn't quite see her face aside from the outline of her head and muzzle. She looked canied but she was very muscular and built almost like a male. She was also quite big and made him seam almost small.

"What...are...you?" He asked in a much stronger voice to which she answered by easing back to show him her full form.

He smiled for a second for he thought she was another wolf, however that smile quickly morphed into a look of pure terror when he realized what she really was.

"Na...Na...Na..." He struggled to say and with the last of his summoned strength he yelled. "YOU'RE A GNOLL?!" The female Gnoll burst out laughing and said, "You realized just now?!" and continued laughing.

"Oh my good gods!" Was the last thing he said before his eyes rolled bank in his head and he fainted from the shock of his revelation.

"You killed it!" The male joked and laughed for he was watching the entire show from a short distance away as he was busy gnawing on a mastodon rib.

The female however was very confused by what had just happened and tried reviving the unconscious wolf by gently slapping his face.

* * *

Fully warmed and almost back to full strength, the wolf sat quietly across from the Gnoll couple who had just saved his life. He was wrapped in a mastodons hide and busy eating cooked meat from a very large rib bone. They spent the entire time talking backing and forth and enjoying a fine cooked meal.

His savories were two mountain Gnolls, a species hyena that is said to have blood ties to the long extinct Dire Wolves of the south. Most Gnolls are very savage and barbaric in nature, however the mountain Gnolls of the north were strangely peaceful and or very tolerant towards other species.

That being said, mountain Gnolls will however not have anything to do with other Gnoll species, especially the Planes Gnolls of the west whom they regard as mongrels and poisonous blood.

Suffice to say they will reproduce only with others of their own kind, none Gnoll species however, it appears their bedroom doors are open for pleasure, as it is a fact they cannot mix blood outside their own species.

The couple whom have brought the Ice Wolf into their home and bed, apparently were not an orthodox couple per se. They were brother and sister as just now turns out, some of the local mountain Gnolls practiced incest, this couple was in fact one of these types of Mountain Gnolls.

The male, whose name was difficult to pronounce but translated 'Has No Enemies', being so named for he possesses an exceptionally friendly nature, even by Gnoll standards, explained to the Ice Wolf when he asked if it was common for Gnoll to marry their own siblings. He explained that the local mountain tribes were obsessed with blood purity and a brother marrying his sister was not only allowed but encouraged by the tribe elders.

"So it doesn't bother you that your sister...um...Sorry, I mean mate!" He said and apologized which the couple found a little amusing and giggled. "It doesn't bother you that she and I...you know..." He drew his ears back and blushed a bit, trying to find a less awkward way of explaining.

The male laughed and said, "If you was Gnoll, I would have gutted you like pig!" The wolf paled at that fact and gulped. "You not Gnoll, so I not care! You want her again?" He reassured him and asked.

The female smiled over his way and teased him by give him a brief peek at her breasts by opening the mastodon hide she had wrapped over her shoulders for comfort and warmth.

"Err...Tempting, I'm very tempted!" He said in an attempt at not insulting her by saying a direct no and give her a playful wink. She giggled and said to her brother/mate, "I really like him! Can we keep?"

'Careful or you may find yourself their pet!' He cautioned himself but was relived to see she was only jesting when she elbowed her mate and giggled.

Apparently with these two, it didn't matter if he wanted to and or had sex with the female, just so long as he wasn't another male Gnoll that is.

'Very curious these customs are around here!' He thought to himself and after having a belly full of meat, he tossed the rib aside and just sat there quietly before the fire.

He looked around the place to see it was completely made of snow. "I've never seen an Igloo before!" He said when he realized what the dwelling was. "I'm shocked snow can be so warm!"

The male chuckled and said, "Snow warm when shaped! Mountain Gnoll shaped snow long time!" What he meant was, the mountain Gnoll have been building snow structures for ages and continue to do so.

"I'll repay you both for saving my life when I make my first fortune in Sky Iron!" The male scoffed and said, "You paid already!"

The wolf cocked his head and asked, "How so?" The male smiled and said, "When you see my mate is Gnoll, I laughed so hard it hurt!" He then started laughing.

The female then said, "I got what is wanted!" She winked towards the wolf and smiled. The wolf couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and flattered by it all.

"Why did you...you know..." He asked then gestured the motion of mating towards the female. She smiled and replied, "You so cold, almost died! Sex good and warms fast!" What she meant, being Gnolls communicated with brief facts, is that the only way she knew how to warm him without killing him was to engage in sexual contact. Also she found wolves attracted and would have done it with him anyway under normal circumstances.

The male also added that in mountain Gnoll beliefs, that if a female Gnoll takes the seed of an wolf into her womb, it would appease the spirits of their Dire Wolf ancestors and that her future offspring will be born blessed with strength and charisma. He also pointed out it was nonsense and or more or less an old excuse females use have sport with a wolf guest.

His mate playfully punched him in ribs for saying that, to which he laughed and playfully shoved her,

"Well...I confess I'm really glade you did and I really enjoyed your company!" He said to her and added, "You have the most gorgeous breasts of any female I ever met!" She blushed and smiled at his compliment.

"I want you again!" She and added, "Before you go!" The wolf was very flattered by that and was looking forward to it to be honest. 'Well...if you can't fight it..." He thought to himself and said, "Sure! Let's do it now!" To be honest, he was very frisky at the moment and was curious to willingly try a depraved act.

The female wasted no time and headed for the bedding area. He then looked at the male and he had to admit to himself he found him very attractive at the moment. He could no longer deny he wanted to try some male on male copulation with the Gnoll, if only just this once and asked, "You want to join us?"

The male's eyes went wide and his ears shot straight up at the question and asked, "Would...me...you..." He then gestured sexual contact with his hands. The wolf giggled and blushing a little he said, "If you want too, sure! I would be honored to share myself with you!" 'Join them!' He thought to himself in completing the sentence in his head.

The male thought hard on that and asked, "It hurt?" The wolf then replied to his shock, "If it's done wrong yes, but I'm told it feels really good!" 'So the barkeeper fox told me, I sure hope he was telling the truth!' He added in thought to himself.

The male smiled and said, "Okey, but me first!" The wolf chuckled but and walked with the male to his female who was already ready for the orgy.

The male undressed himself, he was not bad looking for a Gnoll, being that most were heavily overweight and had mangy fur. This male was very muscled out and healthy. The Gnoll was obviously already very aroused by the idea of the new experience, for his member was fully erect and beads of excitement was dripping from its head. He no doubt was excited about the experience to come and laid down next to his female who ran a loving hand over his chest and down to his belly.

"What's name?" He asked the wolf as he started foundling himself to keep himself in the mood. The wolf let the mastodon hide slide from his shoulder, it fell to the ground with a heavy thud.

He stood there completely nude and fully aroused before the couple who murred happily in seeing the wolf in all his unclothed beauty.

"Never tried male!" The male said and added, "I'm little scared, but excited!" The female then whispered to him, "Want to watch!" And licked his cheek.

The wolf then said his name in his native langue, which to us would be a strong Nordic dialect.

"What mean name?" The male asked and the wolf answered before joining the two...

"It means Tough Knocks and or in a more literal translation..." He then eased himself down over the male, locked lips with and kiss him passionately before kneeling down and taking the Gnolls pulsating and wet excited member in his hand. He stroked the Gnolls member with upward and downward motions, his female watching excitedly and fondled herself, he then finished his explanation before taking the Gnoll's full length directly into his muzzle...

** "Hard Knocks!"**
