❏The village has been much more lively thanks in part to the litter of wyvern cubs that had been set loose onto the village. Per the Chieftain's honorable request, Koza has been following them along with Cloudjumper in order to ensure the safety of the villagers and the cubs themselves. Koza has included Gordrik in this task hoping to give him something to focus his energy on other than harassing anyone that he comes across, although the boy has been much more well-behaved as of late due to a certain 'inner voice' speaking to the kid. This task has taken up most of her time in-between her other duties to the Tribe, but she has been spotting still making her trips to the main hall and was even seen speaking with Enyetof near the edge of the village.
❏ Iko (Texas) left the battle out on patrol with only a few moonfire burns. But she took a prize from the field, too-- the priestess's corpse. Coupled with the soulgem she made, it's not too hard to guess her immediate plans for it. In the meanwhile, she's seeing to Hinjen's injuries, making sure he's rested and properly fed so his demonic mending can take over.
❏ Though the village has been fairly quiet the last few days the Tribe seems in good spirits. There has been a long run of warm sunny weather where the wind has not been so bitter.
❏ The leathers brought in by Kuhnok have been prepped and are now being put to good use putting up huts for Okuun and the other newer members of the tribe as well as repairing several strange holes that have appeared in Aja’it’s hut. This seemed to have stopped when Huntha was caught trying to spy on Aja’it with his mother who was still in her coma. Rhajin sat on the boy for some time as a punishment though soon after this Kanatu forced Aja’it to let the boy in. The older troll vanished from the village for several hours after that.
❏ Harnor’s broken arm seems to have at last healed and he’s celebrated by making a set of sweet fired berry fritters and passed them out. The sweet snack seemed to put everyone in a good mood as good food usually did.
❏ Dakoda seems to be past the worst fears regarding his health and has started to test his limits. Though always supervised and never far from the bed he’s started to hobble around on his crutch for short periods of time.
❏ The shipment of glass from Orgrimmar has allowed the tribe to fully finish and even expend the Greenhouse. Though between the druids, Jaeva, and everyone else seeking the safety of the enclosed shelter for their plants talk has already started of needing a second or a way to create a druid burrow that can double up as a subterranean greenhouse. There is a bit of glass leftover which is tucked away with Kireena.

❏ Koza has set off on her journey with Dakoda to the White Spire with the blessing of the chieftain. She made sure that Hotah had been left with the task of watching over the young wyverns before saying goodbye to Cloudjumper and Gordrik.

❏ Gordrik for the most part has been on remarkable good behavior. Hes often been seen trying his best to help Hotah with the wyvern cubs with Cloudjumper keeping a close eye on him, but he has been having a rough time with it all.
❏ Jaeva Celebrated her 38th birthday with desserts and flower crowns at mealtime
❏ Kamiri has been working hard on making helpful scrolls for the tribe. She seems a little less chipper than usual.
❏ Okunn yesterday with the help of Enyetof, Kanatu, and Korgig fought a small battle against a group of Fel Totem tauren atop the emerald summit. They prevented Narsok the leader of this particular group of Fel Totem from corrupting a powerful tree from the emerald dream that appeared on top of the sacred druidic site. Killling Narsok's followers and gravely wounding Narsok himself the group was victorious despite some injuries. Okunn was able to get a branch from this tree which infused him with druidic power and knowledge and allowed him to acquire more powerful druidic forms. He will now spend some time away from the village learning to control these new forms but will return soon more powerful than before.
❏ Enyetof has chosen to stay with Okunn in Feralas for the time being to recover and help Okunn master his new bear form.
❏ Kanatu has instructed Iko to inform the Village of a gathering to speak on the threat of the elves and to introduce the new faces among the tribe. There’s been news and information gathered about their attackers and Kanatu intends to try and put together a puzzle with everyone present and working together for the retribution of their people.

❏ The young cubs are growing fast and three of the nine have been selected to be taken to Thunderbluff and possibly Orgrimmar for sale to the Horde. Three of them have been selected for proper combat training in the village until they are a few years old at which point they will be sold as well though at a considerably higher price. The last three including a young female with a very soft disposition, a young male that is already hunting his own food and showing promise with an independent and smart personality, and the little runt who still remains healthy if not skinny and picked on by the other cubs.
❏ Aja’it has been seen more about the village though not too long from the hut as Huntha keeps trying to break in. The boy and the hooded troll had been seen arguing more than once after the boy had been let in to see his mother for a time. Aja’it was on the firm side of Wal’ami not wanting them to interact and because he was taking care of her and keeping her body whole while the Loa spoke with her spirit that Huntha had to stay way. Huntha on every turn told the older troll that he was near of age and that his mother was being silly for keeping them apart and didn’t mean for this to happen. The ongoing argument is one that most of the village seems content to let happen at this point as most people don’t like Aja’it and wish to help Huntha instead of having damn near raised the boy.
❏ Reconstruction of the village moves on according to design. With so many new Tribesman being brought in and a stable supply of leather and food construction on the huts has started up again. Koza, Okunn, Nemila, and Enyetof are first on the list to be built.
❏ Plans for a zeppelin have been brought to Kanatu and probably changed or rejected. The little vulpera that has taken up the project has complained loudly to anyone that listens but soon it is thought that the Chieftain and the Engineer will be able to come to an agreement and the building of the vessel can start soon. Kanatu has made it known that he intends to leave in the middle of Spring after the Feast of Change if the vessel can be completed.

❏ Iko's traveling to Orgrimmar, and has been preparing for the trip ever since the tribe meeting. In the meanwhile, she makes regular trips out to the Kodo Graveyard, and it's safe to assume she's attending to the priestess held prisoner somewhere out there. Hinjen has been kept on a short leash, so to speak, and been denied his usual mana gems. Iko feeds him scraps of latent energy to keep him from snapping at villagers.

Hinjen has been kept on a short leash, so to speak, and been denied his usual mana gems. Iko feeds him scraps of latent energy to keep him from snapping at villagers.
❏ Kamiri is in need of supplies as well, so she is going to go along on the supply run. She has been seen mumbling to her Krag'wa effigy more and more as of late. She still seems a little down ever since the last patrol she attended.
❏ Since arriving in the village, Korgig has busied himself with rebuilding the forge. He doesn't leave the confines of the forge for much aside from gathering more materials or meals which he seems to take back with him so he and Muuran and continue their discussion on smithing techniques. He also sings often and mutters something regarding the heart of the clan.
❏ Enyetof is staying in the village, and has been seen gathering various things. When asked what he's doing, Enyetof only responds with 'Preparing for the inevitable.' Whether that means something only to him or The Narvening remains to be seen.
❏ Wal'ami has had little changes since her injury, however recently she has begun to make quiet noises.
❏ Okunn has been away from the village for a while now presumably learning to control his new druidic forms. Though he had indicated to the others back at the summit that he would not be away for much longer.
❏ Gordrik has been milling about the village as has become usual for the kid. Often times he can be seen sitting outside of what is soon to be Koza's hut, which now has walls beginning to be erected. He'd been barking orders at those that were doing the construction, but after a bit of stern talking to he was promptly made to wander elsewhere. Other times he sits out on the stones near the wyvern's rookery, looking out at the desert and even sometimes wandering around with the older troll boy, Huntha, as he tries to learn how to play.
❏ The morning before Kanatu's departure Huntha accidentally shot a druid from the sky, not recognizing the druidic markings on her bird form. It turned out that the druid was a friend of Jaeva's and an ursa totemic druid. She was healed by Jaeva and later that morning spoke of joining the tribe fully. Though this is good news Huntha seems in low spirits for having nearly killed the tauren and sulks about his punishment which includes removing stones from around the village and taking the outside the village boundary.
❏ Jaeva has also made it know that she intends to join the tribe fully and plans to take young Huntha for the practice on the hunt.
❏ With Kanatu's absence Narv is leading the tribe. Though no one but Kanatu himself seems to have confidence that the old bull will act appropriately things have gone on normally the first day. The only thing Narv did was to send Muuran and Dosta with the group to Orgrimmar for trade and protection. Life goes on normally as the village is made ready for their guest.

❏ Kamiri's anxiety about the trip to Orgrimmar was only heightened after their run in with the elves aboard the Zeppelin. She kept to herself for the rest of the ride.

❏ Okunn returned from his secluded training just in time to find a group of the Skyrunner's leaving for Orgrimmar. Despite just returning to the village he seemed very eager to go on the supply run to Orgrimmar and readily went with them barely having anytime at the village at all. Those traveling with him would have noticed him using a new owl form while flying instead of the eagle form that most had seen him use up to this point. The owl form seems to be much more nimble in flight and its speed is greater as well. Obviously his efforts in training are bearing fruit.
❏ Lakodha had departed for the zeppelin with his traveling companions. He was tentative to learn more about the strangers until an attack from the (insert word here for corrupted people) Blood Elves put him on edge. He's beginning to think this trip may have been a mistake.
❏ Since his encounter with the elf and the Void, Enyetof seems to have withdrawn into himself. The druid has been seen only briefly, and has said little.
❏Koza has returned from her long journey early in the evening. Both she and Dakoda returned exhausted, but there was something different about the two. Koza herself seemed to walk taller and had a more determined look upon her face and in her eyes. Once she had stepped within the confines of the village Koza parted ways with Dakoda, greeted those who came to greet her, ate something, then promptly passed out in her now newly finished hut without giving herself much time to digest all the things that would've been told to her.
❏ Gordrik was ecstatic to see Koza return. He had now taken to following Koza around, vomiting information at her without rest as she went about trying to recover. Something about her return had made him very happy, more so than would be thought reasonable just for her returning, but then again the kid had thought she was dead for the most part. As she slept, Gordrik stood outside the huts door as a self-appointed guard to keep any who'd want to disturb her away.
❏ Dakoda’s return to the village left him feeling a bit sad. At the top of the White Spire, he had burned his offerings and sought guidance from his father and the Spirits but nothing came to him. He admitted, though only to himself, that he was disappointed that his efforts had not gained a reaction from them. That his questions of what exactly he was supposed to do now were not answered. The trip back had been long and slow. They were able to use a rope system left by the Tribe to repel quickly down to the ground and would eventually start their trip back. He continued to teach Koza Tuarahe the whole way. He would return thinner, warier, and in near-constant pain from his leg, but seems at peace. He went right to find Jaeva before the sow could find him for a checkup.
❏ Jaeva’s plan to starve the elf prisoner seems to be working. Though she hasn’t said anything of note the magical aura about her seems to be fading and she doesn’t lash out against anyone that comes close. She even seems to have made some sort of connection with Maurin Bonesplitter who has been seen visiting the cage often enough.
❏ Narv’s continued leadership has not set the tribe on fire as might have been expected. Instead the forced interaction with other members of the tribe seem to have softened the bull just a touch. He’s not as snappy to the outsiders, and he’s a bit more willing to listen than to just ignore people.
❏ The day that the group left for Orgrimmar a Highmountain Tauren by the name of Ceryl had come upon the village seeking to learn from it after rumors about their activities. The Bloodtotem then spent the next several days watching and observing, getting to know people and doing odd tasks for Kireena including finding specific flowers and plant matter from the Glade, collecting fallen feathers from the hippogryphs, and even traveling along the outskirts of village lands with a village escort and painting the boundary line of stones with orange and white paint.
❏ No word about Kanatu’s absence has reached the Tribe, good or bad. It has been a full week since he left for the south and some might be a bit anxious now having not gotten any sort of letter or runner from the Chieftain and Towateke Longhorn.
02/17/2020
❏ After the Orgrimmar group met with the Elder, Iko has made herself scarce. She was last seen trying to figure out the trinkets given to her by a strange orcish trader in the Drag, on her way out of the city. She has told her traveling companions that she is going to travel back to Desolace on her own (except for Hinjen). She mentioned something about a hunt for a special feather, but has said little else aside from well-wishes and a hope to meet up with them soon!

She mentioned something about a hunt for a special feather, but has said little else aside from well-wishes and a hope to meet up with them soon!
❏ Jaeva, Mahala and Huntha have returned from their Feather Hunt. Although they have not slain the beast, they have brought back an older female plainstrider from The Barrens, as well as six eggs from her nest in hopes to hatch and domesticate them for the long run. Only three eggs have survived the journey, though the dead ones are being put to good use by Harnor, feeding a great deal of tribesmen in their size. Jaeva has expressed the desire to seek a male plainstrider from Mulgore once the hatchlings mature, to pair with the females.
❏ Enyetof seems troubled by what the village group has found from their hunt for the thunder lizard. He arrived at the village carrying the elfs belongings and has been taking time to go through them and find out what it is the elf was up to.
❏ Koza has joined Gordrik on his personal vigil to watch over the elf confined in the cage under the bridge once their daily duties have been completed. After her talk with Jaeva and Narv following the hunt, she has become concerned about who is visiting the cage and what it is they may be talking about down there. The two orcs seem to fill this time with conversation and at times games amongst themselves. At Koza's hut, a clear outline of a pool could be seen etched into the dirt although little other work has been put into it.
❏ Korgig had been spending his time in the forge. Not just setting things up but it seemed the list of his projects was growing quickly. He would work on each some each day and it may have made some think he would never finish one with how they all seemed to demand his time. Not having his helper there was definitely taking its toll though he would never admit to it. He just kept going on about needing more anvils and more heat. ❏ Having arrived in Orgrimmar, Lakohda set off immediately to begin purchasing supplies; Starting with a sizeable amount of meat. He met up with Okunn and the two had the Night Elf's writ translated by Elder Eyechaser. He's begun to change his outlook on outsiders, at the Elder's advice. He may also have a conspiracy theory brewing regarding the Tear.
❏ Okunn had traveled to Orgrimmar and saw to it that the Old God Worshippers were handed over to the proper authorities. He received a bounty of 900 gold for his trouble. He then took care of some minor personal errands before meeting with Lakhoda and seeking the aid of a very old elder in the translation of a text that may give them insight into why the Elves seem interested in Kanatu's sacred necklace. Armed with the translation Okunn is now heading back to the village with the rest of the Skyrunner's where hopefully they can gain greater insight into the intentions of the elves that are plaguing the skyrunner tribe.
❏ Wal'ami woke from her comatose state to see Aja'it still watching over her. The two remained together as she told the tale of the vision she was shown by an unnamed loa and the journey it had asked her to take while the forest troll told her of the current state of the tribe and what Huntha's been up to.
❏ The weather in Desolace seems to have turned from lightning storms to rain showers that sometimes last a few hours and sometimes it feels like a flood is coming for the tribe. The freezing winter rain keeps many inside but it will not last for long. Soon the land will be aired and parched again.
❏ Kanatu has yet to return to the village and though it is not yet the time he specified for his return a few people grow anxious, Narv included. The old bull paced back and forth grumbling to himself but he let well enough alone it would seem as far as the function of the tribe. He had given tasks of patrols, hunting, and work, as usual, even working politely alongside some such as Enyetof and Jaeva when she returned to ensure that everything was as it should be.
02/20/2020
❏ Korgig has been hard at work in the forge. With Koza's help in collecting items from the tribe, he has been able to repair most of the damaged armor. He was also able to finish two projects for specific members of the tribe (Muuran and Kireena) as well as make some medications to his own armor.

❏ After awakening from her comatose state Wal’ami has divided her time between speaking with Aja'it and Huntha, and getting caught up on the recent events with Narv. She has made mention of a long journey she may take alone in the near future.
❏ Enyetof has disappeared into the Glade. Several large spectral storm crows have been seen coming and going. It's clear that the druid is trying to contact someone, but who and what is unclear.
❏ Koza has spent much of her free time pouring over the crate that Lakodha brought back from Orgrimmar and beginning the excavation of the area where she is obviously planning to put something.
❏ With Kanatu’s return to the village, the Chieftain has had almost constant contact with various members of the tribe to gain information on what is going on. After a several hour meeting with Jaeva upon first arrival. He would then move on to speak with Narv for many hours as well to gain reports on the situation. After all of this though it was quite late and his travels had taken their toll. Before he went to sleep he instructed Harnor to prepare a feast for that week and then sent Winona to send a message to Enyetof, Wal’ami, Dakoda, Lakodha, Okunn (if he returned to the village) and Huntha calling for private meetings with them.
❏ Dakoda has been hard at work outisde Koza’s hut nearly all hours of the day. Kneeling down in the dirt with a shovel to dig a rather large hole. He didn’t seem to mind the labor though he went to sleep very sore and his stump burning like fire every night from the effort. Whenever he is asked about what he is doing all he will say is that he is fulfilling a promise. The two-legged bull has also been seen lurking about the Greenhouse and anyone that has Alchemical knowledge as if he were trying to gain information when topics of potions came up.
❏ Aja’it has been seen about the village a great deal now with Wal’ami awake. Though he hardly speaks to anyone he is at least seen which is unusual for him. Most of the time he is right beside Wal’ami as she moves through the village. A near-silent shadow standing beside her, ever watchful. The two trolls have also been seen practicing hand to hand combat outside the hut. Sometimes with weapons and sometimes without but always in slow and practiced movements more like a dance. Wal’ami has to get her strength back fully before going anywhere else clear threats about old Rahjin sitting on her might actually happen. He’s also been seen alone with Huntha about the village. The two seem to be getting along though anything overheard from the two is spoken in Zandalari, or in Huntha’s case very bad and broken Zandalari and the older troll seems to be teaching him about more troll specific culture. It would seem that Wal’ami has given in and allowed them to interact more fully.
❏ Since his return to the village Towateke Nataka Longhorn has been quiet. Moreso than usual. Though he has been overheard talking to some others that ask about what he saw in Uldum. He would describe the horrors of a nightmare. Being attacked by Old God servants in the streets, being dragged into the once beautiful waters by slimy rotting tentacles, and swarms of bugs and aqir that choaked the sky. The bull would look faintly sick whenever he spoke about it.
❏ The elf in her cage has continued to be silent to all but Maurin Bonesplitter. The two don’t ever seem to talk when others are about though and the jawless, eyeless Foresaken refuses to communicate with anyone that asks him about it. The elf herself looks very thin now though as she is continually starved. Kanatu has yet to speak with her fully though he has been seen on the bridge looking down at her in thought, a hand resting back on his Totem as it glowed and whispered to him.
02/24/2020
❏ Kamiri continues to have issues contacting her Loa. She has been seen around the village carving small frogs out of wood, stone, and even bone. One may even find some lying around in the village.

❏ Iko has been hard at work moving her wagon and belongings into an old, enormous kodo skull sitting just outside of the village's wall. She's begun the process of setting up a few colorful rugs and banners to indicate that yes, someone certainly is living here now. Her animal cages are scattered around, along with areas being cleared away for housing future livestock and other critters. She can often be found moving in and out of the skull clearing away debris and dirt. Hinjen has also been seen at her hip, or leashed to the side of the wagon on a long, thick chain. He snaps at any trace of latent magic, and Iko has been keeping him further away from the village because of this.
❏ Lakodha has been in good spirits since his meeting with Kanatu. He has been going for regular walks about the village, speaking to fellow tribe members on the way.
❏ After the events of the past few days, Enyetof has been seen more often during daylight hours around the village. The druid seems a good deal less tense.
❏ Koza has busied herself with the construction of her pond ever since she had come back from her meetings with Enyetof and Iko. The comment at the celebration seemed to have stuck with her, as she could be seen helping with every part of the process, even the parts that she had no knowledge of, although in those cases she usually ended up watching Dakoda with a lost look on her face instead of helping much. When she was not busy with that, in the early morning, Koza has been seen training outside of her hut, a few times with Jaeva. The two still seem to have differing opinions, but the time has been well spent regardless. On one day, it could be seen that Koza requested a private meeting with the Chieftain and rumor has it that the orc is seeking the Judgement of the Wyverns although the exact details such as witness or when is lost to rumors and guesswork.
❏ Gordrik has been acting strange since the night of the celebration. He seems much more subdued and even a bit ill at times, although he seems to be trying his hardest to keep his spirits up with the encouragement of Koza. While she is busy, he has been seen: miming Koza while she trains, removing dirt from the digging, glaring at the Forge and blowing obnoxiously on the flute Koza found in the scavenger hut right next to Harnor's hut and the meal hall.
❏ The Skyreaver had been spending her time wandering through the village, checking in on everyone here and there. Her steps had finally regained their former speed, it seemed that her recovery was nearly complete. When others did see her the shadowy Reventusk was always looming just behind and adding his two cents to a conversation when he saw fit.
❏ Okunn has spent his time after returning from Orgrimmar setting up his new hut and getting back into the flow of things at the village. Though some may have noticed that Okunn has been sleeping and eating a lot more than he has before he left. He has been taking long naps and he eats ravenously at every meal. Even his table manners have deteriorated. However, he does seem in a generally good mood. He also took some time to participate in Iko's chuckle hunt the other day where he found some interesting items most of which were pilfered from a strange night elf woman who seemed to be having a picnic. While he did not win he did find the friendly competition a good break from the general monotony of the day.
❏ The forge had been roaring over the past week. With the group returning from Orgimmar, the production has increased. There were a total of five hammers striking the three anvils that now remained in the forge. The hammers rarely hit their mark at the same time which sent almost a melody of iron resounding through the village. Especially the huts closest to the forge. Projects completed by the forge:
1. New chest piece, leg plates, and belt for Kanatu. (with stat bonuses)
2. Thorium blacksmithing hammer for Muuran.
3. Gold plated bracelet with lavender gems for Kireena.
4. General village armor mending: 45% complete.
❏ Huntha has been seen about the village in a much better mood. Most often at Wal'ami's side when not doing work or with Aja'it. Whatever command the mother had given the strange troll before seems to have been resolved as the troll has been working a great deal with the boy.

❏ The additional anvils at the forge were at first met with groans because of the additional nois but as more time has passed the Song of the Forge has become something of a comfort to some. A constant beating heart that fills some with a feeling of comfort. Not everyone of course, it is fairly loud.
❏ The elf in her cage has continued to starve herself. After three weeks in the cage she looks a shadow of herself. Thin and boney, often laying at the bottom if the cage as Kanatu questions her. The Chieftain has spent a great deal of time talking to her, offering food whenever he can though most of the information is reported to be madness gripped babbling and riddles.
❏ The day has been rather busy as the Wyverns are prepared for a long trip North over the Glade. Kanatu has been rechecking everything over and over as he prepared the Braves for a raid. He seems easily agitated and most people have been keeping their head down. There's clearly a great deal on his mind as they prepare for what could be a long hunt but hopefully would be short.
02/28/2020
❏ Kamiri has put up a small tent in the village and has been keeping to herself after their battle with the elves. She continues to create small frogs out of various materials, leaving a small pile in front of her tent.

❏ Mahala can be seen out socializing in the village more often than before. It almost appeared as if she was looking for people she still had not properly been introduced to yet in order to place faces to names. The Druid appeared to have relaxed significantly since coming here, and was prepared to step out of her shell in order to start creating stronger relationships within the tribe.
❏ Enyetof seems to be acting strangely. Though he seems otherwise calm, the druid has often been seen staring toward the southwest. When questioned, the druid only responds with "Just a feeling."
❏ Since returning from the recent hunt for the elves, Jaeva has been informed that her deed of healing the centaur leader in the past has been requested to be repaid. Having accepted the invitation to meet and see things through, Jaeva plans to request a thorough map of Maraudon to aid the tribe in their endeavors. On more social notes, the healer has been seen lingering in the mending room more often than not, working tirelessly on creating moss-stuffed woven mats, the goal to up the efficiency of cleaning up blood and other questionable substances from her patients. The progress of her hut on the borders of the glade looks promising, nearly halfway done.
❏ The Skyreaver had been out and about the village more and more as her strength had returned. After the altercation with the elves she seemed to have a bounce in her step having survived that conflict. She also had mentioned to a number of tribe members that she intended to travel to the jungles to seek out some loa, though she claimed to need to settle business in the village before making the trip.
❏ The Orc seemed to be finding his place within the tribe for the time being. The song of hammers on metal rang from the forge at an almost constant rhythm which was good for production, and less so for peace and quiet. It seemed the orc had run low on special projects over the past few days. He had been busy with repairing the mountain of armor Koza had gathered from the tribe. Projects completed by the forge:
1. General village armor mending: 70% Complete
2. Sketches for what appeared to be a leg of iron were drawn.
❏ With the pond all but finished, Koza has been seen leaving the village with Gordrik to work on what appeared to be a large cleared patch of ground just at the edge of the Grove.
❏ Venzolo has been moping around the village ever since he arrived. A cloud of self pity seems to hang over the Goblin constantly as he bemoans his recent woes to anyone who will listen to him around the village. He has also been mooching off just about everyone. From clothes to food even to some small pieces of metal from the armory he will take whatever anyone will give him. Though it seems the new troll that moved into the village recently may have made a deal with the goblin to help the tribe with arcane problems faced with the Elf Prisoner and the plan surrounding her.
❏ As lift in the village continues the few short weeks of heavy rain at the tail end of the lightning season seem to have come to an end. The winter air is cold, bitter, dry, and generally unpleasant. Narv has been sent inside with the returned chill and is hardly ever seen outside.
❏ Dakodha splits his time between the elder’s hut, likely caring for the grumpy bull, finishing up Koza’s pond (which still needs rune stones, water, and fish/plants), and lurking about those with alchemical knowledge. He’s even been seen taking a few things from the greenhouse that can be spared. He still won’t talk to anyone about what he is seeking to learn unless it was perhaps Narv.
❏ A small group of braves has been selected to be sent south. Winona, Dosta, Gruda, and Dehokon left the village on wyvern back with six spare wyverns, all heavy with spare food, armor, medicins, and basically anything that Kanatu seems to think could be spared. While the materials were being gathered it was unclear as to what exactly was happening but if asked the four would only say that Kanatu ordered assistance be sent to Uldum. Talk is that they will leave tomorrow morning.
❏ Maurin Bonesplitter has reacted well enough to the plan to use the elf as bait it would seem. He’s actively assisting in keeping the elf calm as the tribe gets her strength back. The two have formed a strange trust and the elf refuses to eat unless the forsaken is there. The idea he has given her is that the tribe is grateful for the information she had given them. There’s no hint that she has discovered what is about to happen.
❏ Huntha has been seen about the village, spending a great deal of time with Wal’ami and he seems calmer. Whatever lessons the two trolls have been working on him with, in addition to the usual training with Kanatu they seem to have tempered the boy’s feelings. He can also be seen eyeing the Farraki that’s about the village whenever he is seen, giving the stranger a smile.
❏ Aja’it, being his usual self, remains a-social and stuck in the shadows. He did however make good on his word to Koza and a large bundle of ground herbs was left at the orc’s door with instructions on how to burn the incense. Very small amounts before rest and never burned more than a few hours and never more than once a night. The smoke would calm the mind magically as they were blessed by powerful magics, or so he claimed. They should not mix with the medicins that the boy is taking to the point of creating poor reaction.
❏ Three new additions have finally arrived at the village. Aja’it’s careful tending to the tree eggs he bought off Iko nearly a month ago has paid off as three tiny raptor hatchlings are now lose causing terror. A bright green one with a single blue feather can be seen following Wal’ami, having been carefully bonded with her from the egg. A brown one with a few yellow feathers is at the heals of Aja’it now, bitting them more often than not. And a pure black one seems to have taken up with Huntha. It is the quietest out of the three and seems perfectly fine following the boy wherever.
❏ Following the fortuitous meeting upon the road in Desolace, Grymdel was both surprised and pleased with the welcome he received by the Skyrunner Tribe. This soon gave way to alarm as he learned of the prisoner they were keeping and the madness that seemed to be possessing them. During his time on the warfront, he had seen up-close the chaos such afflictions of the mind could unleash and with the village under threat he couldn't help but think, that his coming to these lands at such a time was more than just happenchance. Perhaps the Earth Mother had a new path for him. Upon waking the next day, he checked on Snagg, rousing the boy to see to their gear and then left the meeting hall to take in the village. It was well-appointed, defensible and clearly the people were close-knit and loyal towards one another. A place worth defending. Upon breaking their fast, he and Snagg took up the morning training routine, finding a place upon the edge of the village to commune with the Earth Mother and reaffirm their vow of service. After this, it was arms training, for a squire's education only stops when they are raised as a Sunwalker, or upon their death. The afternoon was spent trading, shimmerscale, rare linens and ore from the lands of far off Zandalar. He made an offering of some of each free of charge as thanks for the hospitality he had received the previous night. Following the death of Saurfang, serving alongside the Banshee Queen had lost its appeal. He was happy to have resingned his commission and return home after so many years away. It was good to see his mentor, Lonaki and those who had raised him in the Crossroads, reconnecting with old friends and now meeting new ones.
