I agree, go for the sympathy route. Tell him that you're the victim of some kind of ancient curse and that you can't control your hunger, and beg him for help. He sounds like a good guy, so you can take advantage of that and hopefully murder him later.

I think we should have murdered him earlier when we had the chance.

Say you have no idea whatsoever what you are.. but you are sooo hungry. Very bad at lying.. concealing parts of the truth or being obtuse is harder to pick up on.

Because lying to him worked so well the last time we tried it?

Going with Cyn and Lizzie here.
We do have to eat, after all, and we're no worse than Alvier himself who apparently hunts his own food.

Same, as above, I don't think lying's gonna work here. Besides, I've not seen anyone come up with a lie that's really plausible, or can explain the wolf and horse features.

Alvier raises a brow as you tell him almost everything. Of course you spin it a little for sympathy, and feign more ignorance about the wrongness of your actions than is entirely accurate, but you manage to weave together a fairly convincing story, and most of it is even true. He nods his head a little and lifts you up, as you're too weak to move, and takes you back to his home.

On the way back you pass the corpse of the guard you had killed before you ran. Alvier pauses, staring at the body, before letting you down on the ground. You look at him curiously, and he crosses his arms, giving a slight nod of his head. With that demonstration of approval, you eagerly consume that corpse, the more serious of your wounds healing over with surprising speed as you fill your stomach.

Afterwards you're able to make your way back to Alvier's home with only a little assistance. He tells you to get a good night's rest, because in the morning, you're coming hunting with him.

Do you sleep, or do you have other plans?

We're going hunting, we have a bow and some arrows. Get archery.

Do another sweep of the house for vermin and insects, then go to sleep. You are wounded, and I doubt he's going to sleep particularly heavily tonight. Hunting with him tomorrow will mean food without particular risk, what more can you want?

Survival 2, then go into the woods for more food.
Make sure we get back home alive though, Alvier's home might as well be our home too since he's the closest thing we have to family or even a friend! \o/

Sleep.
We do NOT want to get mauled by another wolf hunting at night alone in the forest. Running the risk seems like a bad idea since hey, we're going to be able to get stuff there anyway right?

Archery 2 for pew pew btw.

Archery 2 I guess. And maybe scrounge the house for pests/vermin but afterward go to sleep. You're in his good graces, don't fuck it up.
