What? Why can't they leave that poor town alone?!

Hours after a good number of the forces who were setting up to make a large push on the Cult word comes in from Llast. A frantic merchant reported riding at a hard gallop from Hlint. Incredulously he claimed that where Hlint once stood there was nothing but a crater left! What forces are left in Llast are riding out to investigate....

A patrol rode out from Llast, making best possible time without killing their mounts in route. By the time they arrived the 'crater that was Hlint' had become Hlint once again. The bodies of Cultists littered the east gate as well as the fields and forest beyond. A continuous and wide scorch-mark circled the city. The Citizens and Visitors within, nauseous and weak gave varing accounts of an ordeal that left them disconnected from their world. Priests and spellweavers reported losing touch with their deitys or gifts and everyone reported struggling through a world of grey...

Through a valiant effort of several individuals the town was returned to it's normal place in the world. As people heal and recuperate from the trial excited young voices tell how they were the bucket line to keep the fires off of the walls, other report being enlisted to help fire volleys of arrows into the charging Cultists. What this awful group wanted to eradicate Hlint for is not well understood, though the rumors from the front line is that they sought to take one Elohanna and to eat the rest....
