It is haunting and enticing, there is no choice but to follow it. Winding through the autumn leaves, he soon leaves his kingdom and heads towards the long forgotten mountain. There is a spine tingling element in the song that weaves such distance, of course he is tantalized by someone new he may be able to collect. A siren power of some sort perhaps?
Arriving, he notices others and at the center of their focus comes the owner of the voice. Irritation flickers over his features, a fucking fairy. Great. He hadn’t seen them since the birthday party debacle (the murdered fairy’s wing had been dissected since then and remains buried somewhere in the forest) and doubts they had forgotten their lost comrade. He’s still not sure if they knew it was him but it was best not to take chances.
Before he can slink away, the fairy turns and there is a sudden blast of energy as her magic takes hold. He begins to morph and shift until he is no longer himself. The white of his hide begins to blacken, his fur elongating into a disarray of shagginess. His size stays much the same as his hooves change to large furry paws. Canines elongate and he can feel a real growl rumbling in the back of his throat. The only thing that stays the same is the gleaming red eyes.
Perhaps the fairy had known his past transgressions after all.
Keeping true to himself, magic has turned him into a ghostly black dog, an english legend of old. <i>”A Black Shuck.”</i> A dark omen of death where if one saw the haunting image of the black dog with the flaming eyes they would fall to their death within the year. How fitting. How appropriate. A guttural howl escapes his lips as he throws his head back and bounds off through the trees to the dark forest beyond. With no graveyards to haunt, the shadowy trees will have to do. He keeps to the origin of the lore, not one of those that helps lost travelers or escorts woman to safety. No, he is an ill omen. A talisman of death. And anyone that hears his bone-chilling howl shivers with fear and closes their eyes. Hoping the shaggy black dog doesn’t cross their path.

Gryffen has changed into a Black Shuck. Another reference would be Harry Potter when Sirius Black morphs into a big shaggy black dog that everyone thinks is a "Grim" which was based off the Black Shuck as it also predicts death.
