The Hunt

"Over the years, as the Hamlet has grown, so has its enemies. Brigands and swinefolk, Fishmen and Ghouls, the incursions grow more by the day, like weeds. One day, those weeds will spread, sapping the garden of all life, till only weeds remain. The nature of this 'Hunt' isn't a singular mission, it acts more like a route, uprooting the evil from the lands, so that our trade routes may be protected more, and where the hamlet just might live a little longer. Of course, a larger ambition remains: To cut the head of the snake from these enemies, to fell the figureheads of each rivaling force.

The first mission along this line of quests has been deemed the 'Cattlecrier' from the hunters of Rampshire. As of late, Rampshire has seen more and more disappearances from around the town. Respected faces of farmers, traders and other simple folk, gone, never to be seen again. At first, citizens believed they had simply moved from the town to the Hamlet, though terror has recently stricken Rampshire, as mutilated corpses have been spotted by hunters, hung from trees like cattle. The irony? They were hung by cattle. Fear has spread like a disease through the village, doors have been bolted, paranoia ensues, and violence has become increasingly common amongst the labouring roads and alleys of Rampshire. Since this town acts as one of my... regular investors for the survival of the land, this simply cannot be overlooked.

The only information that has been given, is that the culprit is Swine. A hunter managed to pick off one of the stumpy pigs that vomited anything and everything, so at least you'll have something to look out for. And one more thing: Loud wails echo through the woods, almost pained, like a child lost in a bustling market place. From those wails, do the swinemen come from the tunnels and pits where they squat. See to it that this 'Cattlecrier' is removed from my land."

Objective-
Primary : Destroy the Cattlecrier.

Secondary: Kill at least 80% of swinefolk within the woods.

Bounty-
2000 Gold. Every swinemen head you bring back will increase the overall pay by 100 gold. For the final reward of 2000 gold, there must be some evidence that this 'Cattlecrier' has been eliminated.


Aggression is paramount to this operation. Get to the Cattlecrier as quickly as one can go, else danger will continue to rise, and rise within the area.
