The sylvan warrior Harfoot had returned to<br \/>\nthe lands, after being missing for more than ten years! We quickly<br \/>\nbrought him up to speed on the events that had transpired since his<br \/>\ndisapearance, and he told us a tale of how he and his brother fought<br \/>\nback orcs in his homeland. After the meeting, our clan headed for the<br \/>\nclan hut, and after filling out some of Gnaroon&#8217;s paperwork, Harfoot<br \/>\nrejoined the clan! We then proceeded to go hunting.<\/font><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puddleby.com\/lundar-files\/img\/snowy.gif\" height=\"215\" width=\"298\"><\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<font>The first location that we chose to go hunting was<br \/>\nthe snowy grove. However, the hunting proved to be a little scarce<br \/>\nthere, and we left with only a few vermine skins in hand. We briefly<br \/>\nconsidered going to the Greymyr Village, but we decided against it,<br \/>\nbecause there might be too much people there. So intead, we chose to<br \/>\nleave Puddleby Island altogether, and hunt in the waters surrounding<br \/>\nKizmia&#8217;s Isle. We soon found the hunting there to be rather scarse as<br \/>\nwell, though it was an improvement over the snowy grove. Mostly, we<br \/>\nencountered a lot of GCP, with the occaisional Baltoise and Mega Mouth.<br \/>\nAfter circling around the east side of the isle, we decided to take a<br \/>\nsmall risk, and hunt on the western shore of Kizmia&#8217;s Isle. However,<br \/>\nthis proved disappointing as well, as there wasn&#8217;t a single lifelidae<br \/>\nin sight. We paid a quick visit to the old witch Fat Alice, and cleared<br \/>\nout some Cave Cobras and spiders from her basement. We then headed for<br \/>\nthe LSW Island.<\/font><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puddleby.com\/lundar-files\/img\/lsw.gif\" height=\"200\" width=\"278\"><\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<font>The LSW Island, which is located in the northern<br \/>\nwaters of Kizmia&#8217;s Isle, was crawling with the LSWs of it&#8217;s namesake. I<br \/>\ncounted more than 11 Large Sand Wurms, as well a couple Deadly<br \/>\nCrawlers, which snapped at us angrily. We came up with a plan in which<br \/>\nI would try to attract the attention of most of the LSWs on the south<br \/>\nside of the isle, while the fighters entered from the north, with the<br \/>\nhealers cadding the fighters. The plan worked pretty well at first, but<br \/>\nLarge Sand Wurms are fickle creatures, and I could not hold their<br \/>\nattention for long. Soon, more and more LSWs drifted away from me, and<br \/>\nheaded for the fighters on the north side. The LSWs managed to cut off<br \/>\nthe fighters from their boats with their bulk, and gradually the<br \/>\nfighters were cut down, one by one, by the powerful Sand Wurms. The<br \/>\nhealers tried healing the fallen fighters with their cads, and several<br \/>\nchain attempts were made, but when a sudden school of GCP spawned near<br \/>\nus, it left most of us fallen.<\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<font>The lone survivor, Firebird, requested aid for the<br \/>\nfallen ELFs, and soon Entil&#8217;Zha arrived, and with her help we were<br \/>\neventually all rescued. We then attempted to clear the LSW Island<br \/>\nagain, and with Entil&#8217;s help we were successful. We ended the hunt by<br \/>\nfinishing our circuit of the isle, and we were rewarded by several Mega<br \/>\nMouths and Baltoise. There was one close call, when our group ran into<br \/>\na huge school of GCP, but otherwise the rest of the hunt went pretty<br \/>\nsmoothly. Hopefully our next hunt we will be able to do without getting<br \/>\nmassacred, which has become something of an ELF tradition, in recent<br \/>\nyears.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 212, Year 544 of the Ascendancy Today, at the monthly meeting of E&#8217;las Loth&#8217;mon Ferindril, there was a surprise in store for us.
