Synopsis: Craft Lawrence, a young peddler, spends his days selling goods from town to town, with a horse as his partner to pull his cart. One day, he visits a small village surrounded by golden wheat fields and meets a beautiful girl with ears and a tail. “My name is Holo.” Holo, who calls himself the “Wise Wolf”, is the embodiment of the wolf that rules over fertility. Hearing her desire to return to her hometown of Yoitsu Forest, which is supposed to be far north, Lawrence and Holo become companions on a business trip heading north. However, the peddler’s journey is full of unexpected ups and downs… The carriage carrying the lonely peddler and the lonely wolf now begins to run noisily.
Voice actors Jun Fukuyama and Ami Koshimizu reprise their roles as Craft Lawrence and Holo respectively.
