“Woah! I see what that pompous mayor meant!” I said, giving a low whistle.

The ranger nodded and pointed along the edge of the pine forest. “Yeah, Mayor Drell already hired a small crew of exterminators. They took one look at that place and refused to go any further.” He looked at me and gave a rueful sigh. “They knew from the first moment, as I knew- that place is infested with giant spiders.” He shrugged. “It’s not like they are aggressive or deadly….until you start invading their home...which, as you can clearly see, has been claimed by a colony of at least thirty five.”

He rubbed his chin. “The Mayor kept trying to tell me it was my responsibility to clear them out, but I am only hired for threats to the village itself.” He gestured his thumb over his shoulder and to the web coated structure. “And that….that is way above the bounds of my duty.” He shook his head. “Told him he’d need a party of several adventurers to do this, but like always- he works on the cheap, by hiring only one.”

I was about to make a scathing remark, but he quickly added.

“Not to say that you’re cheap. No- just that he only sought to hire one.” He gave a rueful grin and shrug. “You’ve certainly got your work cut out for you.”

“That’s putting it mildly.” I said with a small grumble. “It’s almost not even worth it….thirty five you say?”

“At least!”

“What would be the high-end estimate?”

“Over two hundred, if you include the young.”

I groaned and shook the Ranger’s hand. “Thanks, say I didn’t catch your name?”

“Stannis.”

“Well met, Stannis. If I don’t come back in a month, send word to my guild that Nathan fell, and my coordinates.”

He nodded. “Well met, Nathan. Best of luck.”

I strode up to the web coated stone mansion and already spotted a large specimen near the front door. I nocked my bow with and arrow and let loose-

“Good, one down...this is gonna be a long, long assignment.” I groaned as I continued to pad closer.

(later)

“I wish I never taken this assignment!” I whimpered as I glanced about. Giant spiders were one thing….but there was a sinister, intelligent presence in the house. Something that called for me by name.

I tried to leave, but doors in the dilapidated stone mansion would lead to different rooms, sometimes doubling back.

All the while, I had to contend with the chittering beasts that would be in nearly every conceivable corner.

A movement caught my eye….it was...a human shaped cocoon? What?

I strode closer...the form wiggled and riggled every so often. I looked about and got my dagger ready and started to cut away at its head area-

A sudden movement of legs and fangs burst forth and I screamed as I thrusted my dagger into the legged horror and rolled away. I got to my feet and used my fire wave spell to crisp up the flood of tiny spiders that poured from the odd-shaped cocoon.

I gasped, breathing in the scent of charred spider and took a closer look.

“Okay! Note to self, just burn all cocoons no matter what!” I muttered, thankful that there were no bones, corpse, or anything else in the silk shroud.

Another flash of motion caught my eye and I just barely was able raise  my hands and grab hold of the giant fangs of an enormous specimen. It lunged, with only me holding onto its fangs keeping it back. It poured its web on me...crap! In desperation, I focused my energy and lit my hands ablaze to turn its fangs into ash and then focused the fire into the giant beast.

It screamed and rolled on its back with my fire blast charring what remained. I stopped and cried out, cradling my burnt hands. I slung off my pack and dug out my healing potion with my teeth, quickly quaffing it down..

Help me….please….Nathan….

I gasped at the sound of that same feminine voice and swiveled my head around to where the charred cocoon was. I stepped lightly forward and noticed there was a crude tunnel dug into the stone wall, lined with webbing.

Nathan….please….help me….

“Who are you?” I called out, half in annoyance...the voice never answered me before...but then again, it never was this clear. “Answer me, or I am staying right here!”

Faun….please….I don’t want to die like this….

I gasped, could this voice be real? “Faun? How did you get in here?”

''Slavers, I ran away into the forest...the spiders took me….I can’t move….they’ve been wrapping me up! Please!''

I catapulted into action and crawled through the hole. It quickly opened up into a chamber and I saw a large cocoon with a woman’s face at the top, crying.

“Please! Nathan! Help me!” She begged. “They have almost completely wound me up in here!”

I looked about, there were no spiders in here...maybe I got them all at last? That last one was certainly the largest, and must have been the queen.

“Hold on, Faun.” I said, trying to climb up the many strands of web that criss-crossed the room where her cocoon was suspended in the middle.

At last, I reached her cocoon and got closer to Faun’s tear streaked face. “They didn’t bite you or anything, right?”

She whimpered. “They did a little. I can’t move my body below my shoulders...please, be gentle when you get me down!”

I nodded and selectively cut a few strands, causing the gigantic cocoon to tumble its way to the ground, bit-by-bit.

At last it was on the ground and I started to cut her body free.

“Oh, Nathan...thank you!”

“Wha- what? NO! LET GO OF ME!” I screamed as the cocoon parted to reveal a part human-part-spider creature.

Her spider legs swung forward, pinning me to the ground and her hands and legs worked so fast I couldn’t even track its motions. I struggled and heaved and tried to burn my body, but she bit me, and I felt her venom course though my body, short-circuiting my thoughts, and disrupting the focus needed for magic.

She smiled, and I noticed her fangs and a maniacal glean to her eyes. She stopped moving her hands and I saw several strands that led from her fingers to the silk that now covered my mouth. “What’s wrong, Nathan? You’re not afraid of spiders are ya?”

She giggled and lowered her face and chomped on my neck. I groaned as I felt her venom enter my body, spreading fire throughout my flesh.

She laughed and giggled, and panted as she then closed her teeth over my jaw, my shoulder, my neck, my cheek, my arm……

I screamed as she released the silk around my mouth. The heat, it was too much! I had to get out! I had to-

I gasped, she cut me free from the cocoon.

I staggered to my feet and watched as she unwrapped her kimono from her body and gestured for me to come to her with her finger.

“Come to me, my husband.” She moaned. “It’s the least you can do, since you have routed all my pets from my home! Come! Take me too!” She cried, raising up, and revealing her fleshy slit as her spider legs mimicked the beckoning gesture.

I looked over my shoulder to the hole I came in and tried to turn, but a sudden stiffness and burning wracked through my body. I noticed many glittering strands of magic-like-webbing emanating from my body, leading to her spider legs.

“No, not that way.” Faun cooed and pulled on one of her legs, making my leg move stiffly towards her.

Like a puppet, she pulled me a few more steps. I felt my entire body throb and pulse as her spider legs reached out and slipped my clothing from my body.

“Don’t you like me?” She whispered, gesturing to her beautiful body. “Are you not throbbing all over to be satisfied?”

“You...didn’t….have….to….force me!” I struggled to say, panting between each word.

“Aaah, no...I don’t think I did. But-” She yanked me closer and closed her legs around me. She dug her sharp fingers into my hair and kissed me with a soothing gentleness. “...but...” She sighed. “My venom will make you feel so much better, make you so much stronger….why deny my husband such a wedding gift?”

I felt the haze take over my brain as I thrusted my flesh into her hot, dripping crease- already releasing my seed deep into her womb. Faun cried out, holding me tighter- tighter as I continued to thrust and heave my body into hers, grunting and panting with each wave of ecstasy I released into her body.

Faun trembled, quivering and shaking, and suddenly fell onto her back, bringing me on top of her. She cried out and bit into my neck just as my climax crested over both of us again, her venom pulsing with my seed, filling my body even as I filled hers, until I was swept into darkness.

I woke, seeing Faun stroking my face with a sweet grin on her face.

“Husband!” She cried, and wrapped her arms around me and snuggled close. “That was beyond even my most lewd imaginings!” She kissed my nose with a delicate peck. “I love you!”

I felt a strange soreness all over and got up, stretching and-

“Hey! Did...did you get smaller?” I said, noticing I now stood taller than Faun.

She shook her head and then rested it on my chest. “Nope! You’re bigger, taller and stronger!” She cheered. “The venom I have works just as strong as your feelings for me.” She shivered as I rested my hand on her head and gave her headpats.

“You...” She tilted her chin up to look at me. “You really do love me….” She whispered, her lip quivering slightly and a bit of moisture in her eyes.

I leaned over and kissed her deeply. “Of course I do.”

Faun sighed in my arms and soon backed up and pulled on a thread, bringing down a full set of clothes. “For you!” She cheered. “You won’t be able to fit in your old clothes anymore!” She smiled. “Shall we make our home here? Do you want to go elsewhere? I will follow you anywhere!”

I grinned as I pulled on my clothes and pointed to the hole in the ceiling Faun must have used for entrance and exit. “Let’s go. I have a home within the Tavermire. I think we would be happier there!”

“Yay!” Faun cheered as we climbed out, and started out on our next adventure.
