Day 281, Year 545 of the Ascendancy


It has become something of an ELF clan tradition to fall at our monthly
clan hunts. Something just doesn’t feel right if a hunt doesn’t end
with us lying on our backs, in need of a rescue. Today’s hunt was no
exception.

For our monthly clan hunt, we decided that we
should hunt in the Northern Plains today. The hunting on the plains was
very good, with many cats and ferals that provided some very good furs,
and even some experience for our newer members. After we’d cleared out
most of the plains, we headed north towards the beaches, and hunted
some Adult Rockodiles. The rockodiles provided some challenge, but we
were eventually able to dispatch them and all, and we headed back into
the plains in search of more things to hunt.

After hunting some more cats on the plains, we
decided that we should move next to the lair of the Forest Chamelopods.
Firebird warned us that we probably wouldn’t last very long hunting
Chamelopods, but we decided to go anyway, despite his warning. Firebird
turned out to be right. At first things went smoothly enough, and we
were able to able to defeat the Chamelopods through a combination of
healing power and Kor’gah’s hunting skills.

However, as we moved deeper into the lair, the
Chamelopods appeared in greater numbers, and began overwhelm us. We
began to fall more often, and the healers struggled to keep us alive.
We managed to hang on for quite a bit, but when our three healers fell,
we knew our hunt had come to an end. Luckily Kor’gah was able to drag
us out of the lair with his chain, and we were rescued by Ffodor and
Alchemist who were passing through the plains.

All in all, it was a very exciting hunt, and we
were able to uphold our clan tradition. I feel very honored to be a
member of a clan that keeps its traditions alive.
