Hunting (Help Wanted) [End]

The Forest of Resonance was incredibly vast, deeper than any Amazon and filled with more wildlife than entire countries. Within its coils of exotic foliage, skittering beats, and towering arbor, massive resovoirs of naten were hidden. They provided the flora and fauna with practically limitless resources.
Various agents, scientists, and soldiers of the Astral Kingdom were tasked with exploring the massive ecosystem. Doing so, scholars have discovered thousands of different species native only here, due to the powerful concentrations of Naten thereabout. Cartographers and geological pioneers created maps that exposed these pools of raw energy, so that the Kingdom could properly preserve the integrity of the forest. These were places and routes within the Forest that denizens were instructed to avoid, usually for their own protection. As animals born closer to these oasis were incredibly territorial.. with horrifying metrics of power. Most of them residing within the Maalukian Woods.
Qarinah was pretty familiar around these parts. Like her, most of the dangerous beasts within these lands were nocturnal. They roamed these woods under the mask of darkness, where their knowledge of pitch black territory made hunting for food a breeze. She been veering through its haunting shadows for about an hour now, and the moon was at its Zenith. There weren't too many maps that could lead you out of the Maalukia should you be foolish enough to wander to far. Voyagers who survive warn of whispers that beckon them further, foreign hymns that pervert the sense. Qarinah was here for one of them, but she knew she'd need help doing so.
She'd spent a long time whining about how she would find help after disbanding her temple, but making friends was harder than it seemed. Was she supposed to pass out flyers? She sort of did that but put to it as little effort as she could.

Was the jist of what she wrote on about a dozen or so scrolls of eleven parchment. It had been some time since she ever needed someone else to accomplish a goal, let alone tried to make a friend. So she never gave another thought to what she was sure was a welcome invitation. She settled in a small clearing at the opening of the Maluukian Woods, near a woodland river that would hopefully guide her attendees. She sat pretty and poised upon a nearby Boulder, with her leg resting on her lap.
