This is the most common fate that awaits those who venture in Felarya. Something all over the world seem to compel predators into swallowing smaller creatures whole and alive. From fauna to giant nagas, fairies or harpies, most predators on Felarya don't chew or otherwise damage their prey when eating them, swallowing them whole instead. Thus, any adventurer who ventures carelessly into the jungle have high chances to end their trek slowly digesting in a stomach.
Talking with a sapient Felaryan predator can be a disturbing experience as you realize just how normal gobbling smaller creatures up -including humans- is for them. For a predator living in wilderness, it appears to come on par with their instinct and being surrounded by an entire world that abide by the same rules means few ever even think about questioning it. There are giant Felaryan predators such as Jade or Cypress who never eat other sapient beings, though, and completely keep their instincts in check. They have sometimes known humans early in their life or for prolonged period of times, or have been in contact with a civilization or society that told them it was wrong.
On the opposite, in some chilling reversal of situation, some humans who have been living normally in cities start to develop a taste for predation, eating tinies! Some might try it once and never do it again but some actually develop a taste for it. There is even a black market dealing with that kind of trade in Negav.
That hunger effect seems to be more pronounced in females and in creatures that have resided for a certain amount of time in Felarya.
There are some complex theories
One refers to a particular event recorded in Felarya history where the guardian Notys is said to have entered a transe that allowed her to heal
during which predation all over Felarya suddnely became rampant all over the world.
Many holds Notys responsible for that effect and according to them, if Notys was to die , the hunger effect would die with her.
Some dimensional mages theorize that Felarya is serving as a seal of sort between the reality and the outer ones beyond, and that their ravenousness is
About Vore
Vore, also referred to as vorarephilia, voreaphilia and phagophilia, can be described as a fascination towards the act of consumption, a particular interest in which a person fantasizes about eating another person or creature, or being eaten him/herself, or watching another be eaten. Preferences vary a lot from one voraphile to another. Felarya is based on "soft vore", where the prey is devoured whole and alive, as opposed to "hard vore", where the prey is torn and chewed.
