Spice and Wolf: MERCHANT MEETS THE WISE WOLF - S01

With a cart full of fur pelts, traveling merchant Kraft Lawrence stops by the village of Pasloe. Local folklore says that centuries ago, a villager made a promise with the wolf deity Holo, who swore to bless Pasloe with bountiful wheat harvests. Over time, though, those stories became little more than relics of the past. After quickly finishing his business in the village, Lawrence sets off for his next destination. His journey takes an unexpected turn when he finds a nude, animal-eared girl sleeping among his pelts. Even more surprising, the youthful-looking woman claims to be Holo, the wolf of legend. Holo wants to return to her hometown in the north, and though their first meeting is rocky, she convinces Lawrence to take her along. In return, she promises to earn her keep, using her quick wits and a lifetime of experience to help her new companion in his dealings. As they travel on, Lawrence and Holo take advantage of whatever economic opportunities they find, often landing in situations that test both their business skills and their relationship.
