In the wee twilight hours of the night, the deer stumbled through the quieter part of the Armada woods. Here, where the tangled, gnarled branches of the Mile High Woods were the thickest and least welcoming. Its gait was unpredictable and haphazardly as its body smacked one tree, and then another. Before slowly, and unavoidably, it sank to the forest floor. Its fragile, thin limbs were a tangled mess beneath it. Just above the fallen deer, whose shallow breathing indicated distress, was a tall and ramrod straight tree. Oddly so for these parts of the woods.
The tree itself was the corpse of a once sturdy oak. Now, there was a veil of sorrow across its limp branches. The leaves, once vibrant, had turned a sickly yellow, mottled with dark spots. The bark of the tree had become a brittle, fragile texture that was covered in patches of grey and black. At the soft thump of the deers body beneath it, small flaky bits of bark crumbled away, scattering to the ground and wind. The deer took one last, rattling breath, and its head slumped down against the fallen, decaying leaves and the forest was still once more.
What’s going on?
A blight has entered Mile High Woods! The affected trees are growing sick and fragile, with leaves of mottled yellow. The forest critters are experiencing Woodland Fits, and cases of prey with delirium, hallucinations, convulsions, mild fever, and vomiting are appearing all through the Mile High Woods!
What does this mean for you?
Will your wolf help examine this sudden sickness? Will they themselves get sick? Perhaps they need to investigate what this will mean for the Armada. How to deal with it in the now, and the consequences for the packs future.
