Chapter 1 of WIP Monster Hunter Book [Dark Fantasy, 5738 words]

Hi, I've never really done anything like this before but I'm pretty new to writing, I don't have any professional or academic experience with it so I'd like any opinions or thoughts or help with it.

Mostly any advice where you think either, I go on a uneccesary tangent, grammatical/spelling error, overall writing faults. In terms of of any specific ideas/thoughts on the world building idm but that will be more secondary to me.

To summarise this is the first chapter of a story I kind of just came up with out the blue, I only have this one chapter planned if it was to continue though it would most likely feature a time jump from the end. The overall premise is as a monster hunter story i.e. the Witcher or something similar to that. However I want the monsters to be as realistic as possible i.e. to have evolved to that point what would be necessary. Obviously this is fantasy but how would these monsters biologically be possible in theory at least.

There is some graphic language an or violent scenes described as well as topics discussed that may impose ideas I DO NOT reflect personally but as a medieval society are common for this time. If this is something you may have problems with now is the time to step away or decide for yourself. I hope you enjoy, many thanks an all support / criticism is appreciatedHi, I've never really done anything like this before but I'm pretty new to writing, I don't have any professional or academic experience with it so I'd like any opinions or thoughts or help with it.
