We were a little short on healers, but that did not stop us from venturing deep into the lair of the Tok&#8217;han.<br \/>\nTrouble struck us, however, when we lost a number of our fighters who had tried to &#8220;peek&#8221; into the infamous Snake Pit within Melabrion&#8217;s Mines.  We tried a number of distraction tactics to lead the monsters away from the entrance, and were about to make a desparate charge into the Pit, when we were joined by members of the Order of the White Elephant, who had been hunting above.<\/p>\n<p>The Tok&#8217;hans and Cobras in the Pit were no match for the combined might of our three clans, and we quickly cleared the cavern, and pressed on deeper.  This was the first time that many of us had visited the deeper caverns of Melabrion&#8217;s Mines, so it was very exciting.<br \/>\nWe encountered Lime Tok&#8217;hans and Tok&#8217;han Shamans, whom I had previously only read about on scrolls.  We were forced to turn back, however, when we encountered a powerful Emerald Tok&#8217;han, that none of our fighters could hit.<br \/>\nIt was quite an exciting hunt, and I hope to be able to venture forth deeper into the Tok&#8217;han caves some day.  Below are some sketches that I made during the hunt:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"elfhuntermega.gif\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puddleby.com\/lundar-files\/img\/elfhuntermega.gif\" width=\"315\" height=\"244\" border=\"1\" \/><br \/>Battling a Mega Mouth<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"elfhunter3toks.gif\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puddleby.com\/lundar-files\/img\/elfhunter3toks.gif\" width=\"325\" height=\"225\" border=\"1\" \/><br \/>3 Flavors of Tok&#8217;han<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"elfhunterretreat.gif\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puddleby.com\/lundar-files\/img\/elfhunterretreat.gif\" width=\"339\" height=\"246\" border=\"1\" \/><br \/>Beating a hasty retreat<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"elfhunterpit.gif\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puddleby.com\/lundar-files\/img\/elfhunterpit.gif\" width=\"274\" height=\"292\" border=\"1\" \/><br \/>Taking the Snake Pit<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"elfhunterlimetok.gif\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puddleby.com\/lundar-files\/img\/elfhunterlimetok.gif\" width=\"316\" height=\"276\" border=\"1\" \/><br \/>Encounter with a deadly Lime Tok&#8217;han<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we had a joint hunt with clan Hunter in Melabrion&#8217;s Mines.
