Fics like The Starving Shadows

Argarus. A living weapon. His whole life he's been immersed in the filth of evil. In the dark places no one sane dared to enter, he ripped through man and monster alike. In the light, where all could see, he delivered the ultimate sentence to those who tread the path of corruption. Order and justice, held above all else. Yet, the harder you push against the dark, the harder it rages back. In his unyielding need to purge societal putrefaction, Argarus failed to keep his city pure. He lost his home and his purpose. With nothing tethering him to his old life, he banished himself to a life deep in the forest. Despite his best effort, the exile is not alone. A tribe of wolf beastkin neighbors his dwelling. It is only a matter of time before curiosity and desperation pull them closer. Will they give him a new home? Or will they be revolted by the man they discover? Something else slithers in the shadows. Something old, powerful, and hungry. As it sinks its fangs into the wolf pack, Argarus will be forced to make a decision: Flee and fail them like his city, or stand and fight as he was made to. It seems his old life is not quite done with him after all.
