Kace's eyes went wide with shock! He never expected such a large beast to bury itself. What made their current predicament so dire was the fact that the ground level was slowly rising! This meant that the creature must have just woken up and was currently in the process of getting out of bed! They would be unable to deliver the damage they hoped for before the Hydra noticed them with their current position. "This is. Perfect!" Grugda roared enthusiastically, soliciting a loud hiss beneath their feet as…-

Kace stood silently while observing the thorny forest. Grugda was putting the final touches on the traps they decided to use, and the Tu' Thrag tribe were ready in the Shadow world. There was nothing else to do while he waited except watch for any signs of the Hydra possibly emerging from its den. The Hydra's scent was so thick in this area that it rendered the Tracking skill useless. All he would see was a massive cloud of yellow, which would hinder his sight if he were to keep it active. Once they…

"This is it," Kace announced as he analysed the thick yellowish scent hanging around the thorny trees. "It's definitely in there. This kind of scent has built up over time with many passings. So we can be certain this is its home." Grugda stared at the thicket of trees with a solemn expression. He could not see what Kace could, nor was he able to tell in any other way that a Hydra lived there. 'I'm glad. I never explored. This part. Of the swamp. Before.' Grugda imagined a day where he came out here to…

On the other side of where the crab-like creatures were sleeping, a large green-scaled serpent-like head appeared. It pushed aside the branches of the strange trees that grew in that area to peer at the rock-like shells. A long, forked tongue shot out from its mouth as it tasted the air. This action allowed it to 'taste' the scents of prey carried on the wind. The head let out a low hiss, and immediately afterwards, another four identical heads appeared. All five stared at the crabs' shells, an intense…

It took a little over a week of travelling for the group to reach the edge of the swamp. It was at that point that the Tu'Thrag tribe retreated into the shadow world. Kace and Grugda theorised that the Hydra might not even appear if it sensed too large of a group in its territory. Kace looked out over the swamp and remembered the various poisonous flora in the area. 'Thank god I'm immune to it.' "Drink. This." Grugda said as he removed one of the bones hanging from his waist. He snapped the top end of it…

Kace stood in front of the city gates, patiently waiting for Grugda to arrive. The Tu'Thrag tribe surrounded him and were even eager to help in his hunt. Kace decided to bring them along since they could protect themselves from the poison attacks of the creature. While Grugda knew that territory's layout quite well and was skilled in making antidotes and medicines. Kace was positive that there should be no problems in what he was about to attempt with his help. Simultaneously, the Tu'thrag tribe would…

Eventually, the pair made their way to an area reserved for the hunters amongst the different races. Kace had to gain an idea of the species that would be available to him. There were numerous carcasses strung up in the streets in various stages of being butchered. Kace even realised that there was plenty of species that he had never seen before, which gave him quite a bit of hope. "Lord Kace! What can I do for you?" A foul-smelling goblin quickly raced up to him when he noticed his presence amongst…

Kace quickly left Elderbeard's grove after some of his questions were answered. The ancient Treant would not reveal how to forcefully change his class until he found something more fitting for his DNA chain. The question was, what would he sacrifice? This was basically exploring his individuality to find the best version of himself that he could become. At the moment, the chain with the least amount of usability for him was that of the Dreamscape Moth. He had not bothered with its skill in a long time as…

"Hm, Class Advancements? Well that's pretty well known, isn't it? Or it should be at least." Elderbeards voice rang clearly through the grove. Kace stared intently at the confused look on Elderbeard's face. The Treant had an expression of not really caring about the matter. As if he could find the answers by asking any random monster on the streets. However, the only monster he had ever come across that seemed to have solid knowledge about it was Sonja. Which was why he thought to ask Elderbeard about the…

Shadow was the only one to accompany him on his journey through the sprawling city. The goblin would not hear of his Lord travelling anywhere without a guard. Now that he was not directly led to a specific area in the city, Kace took the chance to properly analyse how things had changed. Before, he could only see the superficial changes on the surface. Since Shagrat had been in too much of a rush to go directly to the mansion. It was only now that Kace realised that he had probably cleared the streets on…
