Okay. Pros and cons here.
I'm giving you a 5-star because this is probably the most compelling writing I've seen on the wiki so far. Very Lovecraft, great pacing, most of the paramilitary details tickle the right organs or whatever that don't set off my "tacticool bullshit" alarm. The description and the hunt log have distinct and different voices, which is not the easiest task to pull off (definitely a weak point of mine, personally), and both voices "feel right" to me.
The cons are more nitpicky things that threatened to derail the read for me:
(1x) Standard Issue cryptid armor
Oooh boy. That's veering into "standard tree" or "telekill armor" territory, to use the SCP equivalents. Cryptids are largely different from one another; who's manufacturing armor intended to be "standard issue" for them? Hell, if they're doing a bunch of nahual hunts, why not have anti-nahual armor? Maybe with some of that "scent blocker" built in that I'm about to complain about?
(1x) scent blocker
Don't hold me to it, but I don't think that's a thing. You can conceal your scent by covering yourself in something that smells indigenous to the area but not like yourself (i.e. deer musk), or you can reduce your scent by, I would imagine, bathing extensively and keeping all of your equipment as scent-free as possible (I would imagine any experienced hunter of anything could give you more background on this than I can). I don't think there is such a thing as "scent blocker", just like there's no such thing as a "noise blocker" (only noise-cancelling, which is also a misused term, IIRC).
Some of the writing is a little more flowery than I would expect.
…and began our search for the foul aberrants.
…while the airborne Náhual kept circling around us, projecting its feral shadow upon the bloody ground.
Monsters are a real threat to this world, and we, as Wayward, are the only ones keeping our civilization free from the burdens that those threats carry with them.
And yet, there's no one better for the job than us.
It all just feels a little too fiction-y, adding all these normative descriptors that I would think someone in that situation wouldn't have time to worry about. You worry about the creature's shadow, sure, because it's above you; does the shadow being "feral" somehow enhance the danger of horrific flying talon-beasts? It sounds almost like the writer is offended by the creatures, more than angry, greedy, or afraid, which all sound like more reasonable responses.
And that last bit just seems very Very Special Episode, very After-School Special, very This-Is-The-Moral-of-the-Story. But real stories don't have morals. They just happen, and while someone's memory and descriptions afterward can certainly add exogenous continuity and moral weight or whatever to the events, I would (personally) rather see a slightly dryer, more "this is the shit, this is what happened, next detail" form of writing. You can imply some of these narrative devices without saying "nahuals are morally bad and not good, this is literal Manichean evil incarnate in the world," etc. etc.
Good story, though. You deserve the 5. Hope to see you do more here.
