Overview

This is a favorite hunting ground of the Dogtar people and none of them hunts here more often than a young warrior named Naik. The plains below the mountains are dry, so the wild aurochs often gather at the watering hole that can be found here. Although it has only been a scant few years since Naik passed his initiation in the Mocking Hills (04.07)(he has a sharp memory and paid no heed to the screams of women in distress that he seemed to hear, for what did he care for the plight of outsiders?) he has already become well known for his hunting prowess as well as for darker things. It is rumored that on one dark night he went to the Glass Rapids (05.05) and struck a bargain with the black dogs that roams the dead rocks that surround those fell waters. What the truth is nobody knows, but soon after the disappearance of his sister, Naik’s favorite dog died giving birth to a litter of fierce black pups with bright red eyes that grow even now with astounding speed.
