Late at night, a Kitsune finds an abandoned infant. Unable to care for it herself when she first finds him, she enlists an old friend to aid. The boy isn't raised like a normal human would be, however, and this brings him to odds between human instinct and the culture he grows accustomed to. It's a matter of how he'll adapt... or how much he's willing to change about himself.

Hume and the Demands of Philosophy: Science, Skepticism, and Moderation offers a comprehensive interpretation of the relationship between Hume’s scientific project and his skepticism. Nathan I. Sasser argues that Hume is a radical epistemic skeptic who has purely practical reasons for retaining the beliefs that are essential for ordinary life and scientific research. On Sasser’s reading, the key to Hume’s epistemology is his conception of philosophy as a normative method of inquiry governing the special sciences. Philosophy approves of the mental faculties that produce reasoning and sensory beliefs. But sensory beliefs and the products of reason themselves face insuperable rational defeater arguments, and because they do, philosophy demands that we suspend these beliefs. Hume’s solution to this skeptical dilemma is to point out the fatal practical consequences of doing so. He advises us not to submit to the demands of philosophy when doing so is neither agreeable nor useful to ourselves or others. Hume’s moderate approach to philosophy recognizes that if the human mind is not created by a beneficent deity, then we must learn to live with the divergence between the epistemic demands of philosophy and the practical demands of life.

A Birth family infatuated with black magic, an adopted home with a man who went from nothing to a medical breakthrough after a chance crash landing in his town. David would have it rough, but the man before him may make it look like he got off easy with the curse that befell them. How will they manage? And what was the motive behind the strange curse? (Updates will occur when I can, right now I'm looking to get this out there)

Some of my kind was free and self-sufficient, others were tamed, and in the care of the humanoid animals that had some dominance over the land I knew, and despite it seeming like a nightmare, these creatures were as kind as can be. However, even in our reality, nothing's perfect, because what's a utopia for one, isn't for another. Even then, I didn't find myself in a good situation. My family was tamed for a certain animal family; however, in the master's will, it said that the child would be in one of his daughter's care. Once he died though I was left fending for myself in my own home from one of his crazy daughters. I ran only with the stuff he got me and a five-day supply of necessities if I didn't ration. Now all I knew is that I was on my own. The only thing that was on my mind now was, do I give this a chance and be free, or do I try to find a new family?
