___________________________________________________

Yeti-Rhino’s were one of the selection of beasts that the limited number of Beast Masters that served the varying Imuchakk tribes could train into service for the Imuchakk. They served as beasts of burden that could aid in the larger caravans that moved between the settlements trading goods or moving supplies to aid the Imuchakk in their very much community focused lifestyle.

Surviving together was what High Chief Asisiak had promoted long ago when she hunted and slew huge numbers of rampaging unicorns that consumed the fish stocks around the coast. The predators had become the prey of the Chief’s first Sabertooths all of whom at least to the Huntsman’s knowledge had passed away at one time or another and even the second wave had also passed away.
He did wonder if the role was cursed, after all who could keep up with the power of the Chief and if you were dragged into that maelstrom. How long would anyone survive.

The huntsman was far to aware that he would eventually die, he was getting old, his bones and joints ached though he had been given mercy from the injury he had suffered while clearing the cave as per Asisiak’s orders by a Shaman-Adept and their powers.

The huntsman would finally be able to head out into the wilds and this hunt was to be a simple one after all it was a creature afflicted with Frost-Madness and such a creature would need to be burned to be disposed of.
The huntsman had preparation to do, he would of course be joined by his beast companions - Shevika and Seeker.

His preparations were simple, he would first of all receive information that he could acquire from those that desired to send the huntsman out to slay the creature before it could cause any further damage.
It had run wild during likely afflicted by something that had bitten it or that it had consumed during its travels, though it seemed only this one in particular had developed the sickness rather than the entire caravan groups beast’s - this was of course rather fortunate after all if had been the entirety of their beasts of burden then it would have been a real problem.

The huntsman would acquire a number of vials of unicorn oil, this would be used to burn out the creature to allow the huntsman to turn its flesh to ash. He would be able to load it into the body cavity and spread it across the carcass and then ignite it to from there he would just have to observe and wait for the blaze to end but he needed to eliminate the beasts flesh.

Setting out into the wilderness was its usual sort, the huntsman would make use of his own tracking ability and that of Shevika and Seeker to aid him in catching the creature's slightly aged trail. The huntsman was originally meant to meet the group but his wound had changed that leading to the group arriving at the settlement with other guides. It was now his turn to perform clean up duty.

Snow would crunch underfoot as the huntsman began to once again adjust to the cold that he had escaped during his time in care. It was bitter and cold and for a human like Vodarara benefited from regular attunement of the cold, growing used to the environment while protected by his numerous layers of fur that adorned his body. Though getting caught in a Blizzard could easily be lethal if mistakes were made by the veteran huntsman whereas the Imuchakk could act reasonably unfazed by such an environment bar the risk of accidentally wandering into a crevasse due to low visibility.
Thus during those conditions it was safer to set down and wait for the weather to clear.

Shevika's muzzle would sniff around as she continued to track and Seeker circled in the skies above. While Vodarara’s eyes were good, he could not fly which gave him a disadvantage unless he found a vantage point and even then those vantage points were limited in where you would be able to see into.

Their journey would be long, their dawn travels swiftly moved into the late afternoon as the huntsman and the beasts headed back along the route that the caravan had initially taken before he would end up following the trail discovered by himself, shevika and seeker off into the wilderness as the closed the noose around the wild-beast.

Eventually, from afar the Huntsman’s keen eyes and that of his beasts scent and sight would mark their target.
The Yeti-Rihon was a hulking mass of muscle and fat, this one in particular was around three metres at its hulking shoulders, its body length was around four metres in length and its head adorned with a metre long horn that could do some serious damage to those that attacked it should it get into close quarters though its shear body mass was just as lethal, even if it did not impale you it could simply crush you or shatter you with its mass and momentum.
Its thick hide and fat could often be another issue causing weapons to get stuck or not penetrate as expected.

The huntsman had a simple plan however, any beast like this was simple to deal with as the creature fought with some trees, attacking the tree stumps with its mass. It had clearly seen some combat though it appeared to have likely got the better of whatever had battled with it, its wounds had sealed but its fur was stained with blood in different areas across its body.

This would be a simple hunt, the huntsman plan was as it was for any beast hunt. A single arrow just behind the front leg to penetrate the heart or lungs. This would lead the creature to swiftly die from its inability to breath or the failure of its core organ of life and the hunter easily had the arsenal to do such a thing simply.

It was now just the case of getting himself into position once he strung his bow. Before he began to close in for the kill as he creeped into position and prepared to make his Pin-Point Shot. The fine razor-like swallowtail headed arrow, its sweeping bone blades coming back down the shaft of the arrow, its long barbs giving maximum cutting edge while minimising the weight of the head.
The huntsman would slowly take his stance once he had creeped into position, keeping himself down-wind of the creature. He would slowly stand from his low stance as he stood, making ever so slow movements as he brought the arrow to the bow. Relying on lack of movement and his camouflage would help breakup his shape and presence.

The cold bowstring slowly drew back as the huntsman emptied his lungs to steady his aim. This was the eye of the hunt as the arrow sat on the outside of the bow, three of the huntsmans fingers closed on the string as he drew backwards.



The huntsman had elected to shoot on the outside of the bow, though he was capable of shooting from both sides, each favoured different scenarios in a hunt. This time it was in the open, a simple kill.

The arrow released as it sailed through the air on its arc as the arrow held stable in its flight, its wobble remained low as the arrow ocellated under pressure as the arrow was affected by the archer's paradox as the arrow’s spine passed around the shaft.

The creature wouldn’t even feel the strike, the arrow penetrating through its body passing clean through the Yeti-Rhino and embedding into the snow past the creature. The creature took sometime to come to its senses as it brain began to struggle for blood and oxygen as it continued its actions before finally its legs would give out, while the huntsman still remained stationary and still, intending to Hide his Presence.

It took minutes for it to finally be done, the huntsman waiting for the creatures breathing to significantly labour before he would approach. He would use his kukri to slice into the throat of the creature as he wanted to make certain it would drop dead.

It would be a slow process as the huntsman would prepare the corpse, slicing into the creature's gut to open up its body cavity as he prepared it for burning, loading up the body with flasks as its body began to steam the environment.
Pouring further oil across the carcass, he would begin gathering up tinder that he could from the nearby trees before he would finally begin working on creating a fire.

He would remain there the night as he dug out a snow-burrow and prepared traps for security as he attended to the burn, it would take time but it had to be done properly to prevent scavengers from feasting on the body and continuing to spread the infection to other creatures.

Eventually, the huntsman could return from the cold… there was still work to do after all.
