Finally! Its confirmed! Spiders of incredible size and ferocity are infesting the Wolfswood! Whats worse is that this reporter has unearthed a truly terrifying account of dark elves infesting the forests as well.

Does this mean that the Rangers and Druids are in league with such creatures? Could it be that a great evil lies on our very doorsteps! What secrets are the Rangers keeping? That they have signed pacts with Darl Elves and even now seek to breed massive armies of spiders that will overun the Sun Kingdom and spread further throughout Alindor.

This reporter has evidence that these creatures exist, eyewitness accounts of those who fought the spiders and who slew some of the Dark Elves as well. They even brought proof that it was those who purport to protect the forest that started the fires that caused such terrible damage.

On top of this information comes word that forces in the Erilyn Kingdom have been mobilised to face some threat from the eastern edge of the Wolfswood. Levies have been called up from Fort Homestead the Fort of Kings and the many farms skirting the Rusty River to contain some threat. Is this linked to the current situation in the western forest? Only time and more investigation can tell. One things for certain, healers of every description are being drafted by the Erilyn forces as they mobilise.

This reporter does not like to catastrophise but in light of the evidence that has been brought to me from the very heart of the problem I have to report to the good people of Mariners Hold the truth no matter how terrible it may seem.
