I have an idea here that I am not sure the merit of it. I have written about five chapters and the end of the story but I am not sure if I should continue. The more I write the more it feels like a rip off of a different idea. But here it is.
In this particular fantasy tale there are tribes of Wolf-hybrids that are very similar to Native American culture. They even play lacrosse. The basics of the story is that a human hunter is nearly killed and brought to the village of the wolf-tribe. Before sentencing him to death a member of the tribe offers to care for him until he is well enough to travel on his own. Both are social outcasts. Him because he spends more time in the wild than in civilization and her because her conception was the result of rape.
As the human gains strength, he proves his skill with a bow to the tribe and is slowly accepted as one of the tribe.
This entire idea was sprouted from the idea of a mating ritual I call "The Great Hunt". The females old enough to mate are sent into the forest at a head start. The males or "hunters" are then given a very powerful herb called Dutral that enhances their senses to the point of practically seeing scents. The males then hunt the females. Those that are together when the sun rises are mated pairs as their diety, the moon, has fated.
I would like to know what people think of this idea because I am starting to think that it wasn't worth actually making and maybe I should add this idea of "The Great Hunt" to a different story
