(Voda C tier Section)The huntsman had been scouring the landscape and wilderness through the days since his observation of the Imuchakk resident to this area, though the tip he had picked up on the ear allowed him to observe the goings on of these creatures that lurked among the waters, he wasn’t a fisherman of course, so things of the water wasn’t his strong point though it was something that intermingled heavily with the environment as a whole, by the what it seemed the creatures mainly predated on the fish and invertebrates that lurked along the rivers and sea, so they were quite a wide range traveller for a creature.
It seemed however that from his observations groups would come and go and he couldn’t tell if it was the same ones each time though there numbers seemed large and highly unsustainable, but why would something that he didn’t know of and seemingly from their words even the imuchakk didn’t know appear at this time, there had been issues since the rising of the second dungeon, but the first didn’t cause such issues other than the mega storm that encircled it in till it fell, though the difference between the two was that the dungeon was above ground where as he had seen the second with his own eyes, it appeared underground and reshaped some of the land and caused an earthquake maybe because it was underground it leached itself in the environment into the underground works keeping it in one place, if such a thing left a trace it being above ground would explain with the first had a lesser effect because it dispersed into the air.
Though he knew next to nothing about these towering anomalies and how they appeared they were somewhat unnatural but also slightly as if they were normal, it didn’t make any sense the ones he had seen could be said to be somewhat natural but didn’t make sense in the lands in which they appeared, Vodarara didn’t know much of the world around him other than the lands he knew that were stamped into his blood and spirit, could it be something that migrates like some animals do across the land or something that could be said to be a miracle, but then if it was such why would it feel like a quivering in the lay line and spirit of the nature, why did it feel so odd to be so sudden.
Though he had travelled within one once it didn’t make much sense to him, though he doubt someone such as himself would ever have such a thing explained to him, just a hunter, just a wanderer, just a mortal, a creature that was born to the wastes and would die to the wastes, time changes everything.
But it wasn’t time to exactly distract himself with such thought, Vodarara moved through the tree’s it was amazing such a landscape in such an environment he was it, it felt like a different biome of itself maybe the air currents flowed differently here, though snow still touched the ground there was a variable difference to the life that was here than what lived on the snow planes more fauna grew here and thus it was somewhat more teaming with life though everything here was adapted to the area that they came from and thus the creatures here were different as well, though he imagined it would confuse those whom didn’t know this land, he guessed the imuchakk may understand it greater than him, they had been here generations.
He found himself eventually reached the rivers and streams that cut through the forest, though these creatures were somewhat large it seemed that led them to only reach certain parts of the river system, the creatures themselves where quite odd if he didn’t say himself, a creature that could somewhat vary in length with somewhat vast differences to the fish he had seen, it somewhat had what looked like legs and arms to its body as well as a long tail, it defiantly wasn’t a fish that he knew of as well as it wasn’t like any slug or eel he had seen, though he had seen odd creatures appear recently much like the bugs he had purged from the cavern systems that he now used as a base camp as the native creatures had begun reclaiming the ground they had lost due to the incursion of the mutagen, though they somewhat still kept a birth from the area’s that had light in them though that could be said to be because they were creatures of the dark and most likely of those specific caverns due to the warmth inside them.
Vodarara stalked himself along the river itself, around it was snow and green foliage and bushes, tree’s towered tall above there needle like leaves blocking out some light though what filtered through allowed smaller foliage to survive down here, there was much sound through the forest that sounded as if it was always within touching reach unlike the sounds that filled the tundra, it would take him sometime of stalking the varying pods of these slugs before he could find a suitable spot to eliminate one from, though by this time he would be hungry, it wasn’t of his mind to do the job that the imuchakk were planning it wasn’t his place though he would observe this oddity.
Vodarara found his perch across a fallen tree though it was somewhat old though it still held somewhat strong it wasn’t the type of thing he would imagine an imuchakk would use to cross it was most likely used by animals, of course the imuchakk would only need the river to swim across thus such a thing wasn’t important to them.
Vodarara stared into the waters watching the creatures pass back and forth snapping there way at fish as they passed by attempting to consume and fill what seemed like ravenous appetites.
Vodarara somewhat imagined this must be what fishing from the shore is like, he prepared his
Harpoon like arrow steadily unwrapping the rope from the tangle holds on the bow, the rope being held alongside the bow itself as he notched the arrow onto the string, it would be a single shot he just wanted one after all as the huntsman observed the normal fish that swum around, drawing back the arrow the idea to shoot at the location of the fish that one would consume.
It would be sometime before Vodarara finally released the arrow as it punctured itself into the flank of the creature, as it writhed as he dragged it in as it fought, the others that were in its local streamed in towards it, they seemed happy to eat one of their own brethren, like many predators of this landscape you eat what you can.
Though it was only somewhat intact once Vodarara had drawn it in, it was enough he could at least trail it for its taste as he left the area and headed down stream towards the sea……..
