Setting
The Wilds are a deep, dark, forgotten realm where only the mightiest of Drazyllian elders will go. The Punyimpas will not even go here because there are beasts that prey on them. The creatures here grow out of control because the ecosystem is untouched by outside influences. Some say that the Wilds are protected by an ancient elemental spirit and only the Drazyll can understand his language. It is said that he will attack if he feels as if the forest is in danger.
The Battle of the Winds commences here.
The Forestfolk campaign begins here.

"Crystal Conflagration!"
The massive wings on Balthazar's back suddenly beat forward, pushing the magickal energy away from him in a beam. The blueish energy flowed forward, freezing water in the air, until it collided with the remnants of Junpei's attack, and suddenly a massive wave of flesh-searing steam blasted into the weakened Behemoth. When the attack struck, Balthazar brought his wings in and grunted confirmingly, his ice attack done.

He pumped his arm a bit before allowing Ogava to walk off, and he slipped back into the world of fancy he'd been visiting as he examined the dead creature. Tedrin should have been here; this would've gone a lot more smoothly, perhaps they would have been better coordinated, perhaps there would have been less mistakes...
The Drag'Konin's mind replayed the scene of Tedrin's death, the confusion, hatred, and violence that'd rifted the party members like a bolt of lightning. It'd been a massive cluster-cuss of miscommunication, but to draw so quickly... Balthazar glanced over at Ogava and saw his kin stragetically place himself nearby Anya in case of treachery. While Balthazar's mind did doubt the intentions of Nez, Junpei's self-righteousness was continuing to tear at Balthazar, and he looked at the Val's back as he turned away from him, Balthazar's eyes slitting to predatory and for a second be beared his teeth. A sound from one of the others brought him back again and he turned away. It wasn't worth it. He lumbered over to Ogava and took an obviously defensive position next to Anya; although defense from the others, or the creatures of the forest, it was not apparent.
Tedrin wouldn't want Junpei dead for a mistake.
Even so, somehow still, Balthazar did.

Anya grabbed her bow from the dirt and quickly got to her feet before saying, "It's okay. I think it's okay. Balthazar was the most ferocious and Anya had to raise her left hand in front of him and slowly lower it in order to calm the Drag'Konin. He was a powerful Drag but he was kind in a warrior's way and Anya respected the man was was beginning to understand him. "We'll be fine, Balthazar. Thank you..." She turned her attention to Nez and asked, "What is it that you want?"
"I only propose that we rest here. Our battle was very difficult and I have not had a battle this intense in a very long time."
"Well too bad for you, Nez. But alright. I'm fine with resting here until we are prepared to move..."

A few large tree limbs served as a good perch for the hilt of the weapon as he jammed the pommel into the dirt and let the meat hang over the flames. As the flames licked up, kissing the meat, the smell began to fill his nostrils and he smiled at the idea of a good hunk of cooked meat. He licked his lips and looked toward Anya, saying, "For me, one who is much larger than you, this is a delicacy. Inple take down creatures like this in hunting parties and we cook these beasts and we can eat them in an afternoon, leaving nothing but bones and brain."
He looked back toward the meat and remembered being with his own people. He was saddened that it would be a long while before he was back with them. In that case, he wasn't sure if he would ever get back to them if the enemies were to become more powerful than the behemoth. He took the blade from its perch and made quick work of flipping the meat on the blade and returning it to cool. "I sure wish I had some seasonings and a few bundtchal coast potatoes right now. A big pot and some broth with a little of this meat settled in it over a low flame would make for a tasty stew..."

"I would figure..." Nez said.
"I will go out, shoot some game and we'll let Oleris cook it up..."
"That Behemoth tasted like dog shit..."
"And you've eaten shit?" Anya said.
"Seems like he would," Balthazar mumbled from behind Anya.
She laughed and watched as Nez's face crumpled up. Anya said, "Oh, Nez, just let it go. He's just being Balthazar. You should be used to is by now."
Nez shook his head and said, "I'll drop it. I'll join you on your hunt as well..."
Just then, Ogava asked a question of Anya and she thought for a while before saying, "We'll have to draw the demon out. We know little of it so we'll have to go into the bogs and wing it. Perhaps we call upon the Forest Spirit, see what it can tell us now that the Champion is dead."
Nez nodded and said, "What of the future...?"
"We will continue Tedrin's journey. The powers that be need to know what happened. We don't need to fight a war based on a lack of information and twisted lies. I don't want to fight a war against the El'Dren. We don't need to. Thousands have fallen because of one demon. We have a chance to kill him now. It was what Tedrin wanted. It's what we need to do."
