Noctisardor Bypass In these times of doing what you're told.

Hoping for @Druid!

Viinturuth followed the river, leaving no stone unturned. He stopped any traveller who crossed his path to share his brother's description of the monster who'd claimed the vision of his niece. While no one seemed to have seen the darkened hide of such a beast, the alabaster ranger carried on with his mission.

The bypass caught his eye and ge veered off from the water, picking his way toward the valley's Eastern mouth. As he drew nearer he found the strong aroma of wolf on the breeze and was quick to decipher that the land was claimed. He paused, aware that its inhabitants might take offence to his approach considering the breeding season, and he lifted his voice to ask for an audience.
