Message: <blockquote data-quote="ethandrew" data-source="post: 5307428" data-attributes="member: 17456">Pinder - Chimpanzee Druid - with his faithful Husky steed SessayThe forest here was dense and dark, despite the midday sun high overhead the wooded canopy. Shafts of light would penetrate the leaves and branches, yet nary a few would reach the forest floor, providing just enough illumination for those wont to see.On a rock Pinder perched, his toes grasping the corners, knees winged out, and hands resting between his feet. Sessay, coated in mud to hide his scent and color, sat alertly behind the chimp. Through the heavy brush, the young druid could hear and see the movement from several of his targets, carrying limp, young bodies of other simians into the deeps of their cavernous lair. He could understand why they chose this location, its dankness left it undesirable for habitation, cultivation, or visitation; perfect for their illegalities.This mission, however, wasn't one of engagement, merely one of reconnaissance, of which Pinder had done quite well. Not only had he uncovered the cultists' whereabouts, but he had seen them transporting bodies, whether dead or alive, he knew naught.Out of his peripheral, he noticed another figure emerge from the brush heading toward the dubious entrance, this one dragging a body, by the size it was not much older than adolescence. After a few more steps, the body groaned, forcing the figure to drop its legs, a loud thud and puff of dry earth issuing forth. The dark body stood over the groaning victim, leaned down and picked up a large rock in two hands, bringing it overhead and downward with a quick, violent strike.Pinder, for his part in things, shouted in surprise and shock at the brutality, forgetting his place. Sessay howled. Quickly the cultists' figures turned to address the obvious intrusion, making their way hastily through the brush toward the perpetrator. A look of panic crossed the young chimp's face as he fumbled for his spear, and then, without warning, he vanished completely.</blockquote>
