“Amazing. By dealing with them you proved that you’re really an outstanding warrior. No one will doubt you any more.”
Ding!
You have completed a quest: ‘Kokun’s doubt’.
In the whole village of exiles only a few people ever managed to hunt 5 giant ants. And those people are called the greatest warriors and the main protectors of the village. Now Kokun will spread the news of another great warrior among the villagers.
Reward:
Kokun’s knife.
Experience points.
Fame increased by 6.
This time too Weed checked the experience bar. For this quest he was awarded 15% of experience bar. But the most important was the fact that the villagers will finally start to accept him.
“This is my knife. Now it belongs to you. Such a great warrior like you is always a welcome friend for me.”
Kokun took out a small knife and passed it to Weed.
“...”
That was the most dirty and dull blade Weed ever saw in the game.
“And what do I need it for?”
“It’s handy for removing bark from trees. Very useful knife.”
Weed decided not to reply, he already had Zahab’s knife and Kokun’s gift was of no use to him.
“I’ll continue my story about our village. The place where it’s located is really very dangerous. If you act rashly you can easily lose your life. That’s why you should never underestimate orcs. Since early childhood they’re trained to fight monsters, very strong monsters... It can be said that orcs rule these lands.”
“Got it. Avoid the orcs.”
“That’s right, if you value your life at least. However high in the Yuroki mountains live dark elves, Moreover recently some dark creatures that use magic appeared and allied themselves with elves.”
Weed’s gaze became keener.
“Could you tell me more about that?”
“Village’s hunters, like me, aren’t that aware of what happens in the Yuroki mountains. But we saw many times how orcs fight with dark elves. Almost every time orcs were winning, even though elves use dark magic and summoned spirits. But ever since those dark creatures appeared, orcs started to lose more fights. A lot more fights. Moreover, the slain orcs were rising and attacking their own kind. I almost got killed a few times when I watched such battles.”
Weed was well aware what kind of dark creatures were allied with dark elves. The necromancers of bar Khan Demoff.
“Dark elves started to win. They even built walls, fort and then a fortress and towers in the mountains. Thought that seems strange, isn’t it?”
“Right.”
Elves were the race who lived in harmony with world and nature.
And even though dark elves loved to fight, they still lived in natural environment. Why would they move into a fortress?
“I have a feeling that elves are preparing for a war. Are they going to start the full scale war with orcs and are hiding something behind those walls? I don’t know anything, I can only guess. However one thing I can tell for sure: ever since elves got support nights in our lands became longer.”
“Longer?”
“At certain time dark clouds emerge from elven fortress, and they cover the entire sky. The time for which we can see the sun keeps reducing. Take a look in the evening and you’ll see for yourself.”
That’s how Weed learned the rough situation in the Plains of Despair.
“By the way, if you meet brother and sister Moss and Amy in the village, don’t talk to them about the shape shifting monsters. Now I need to go hunting.”
Kokun picked up his shield, waved his head and left the village.
