After Yoru and I found our second scorched area in the Lunar Forest, we inspected it for a bit in search of clues.
The damage spread for at least a hundred meters in diameter, which was pretty shocking. However, this area did have some signs of a battle, and not with a monster.
Some of the trees around the burnt-down zone had arrows stuck to them, and Yoru even found a splash of blood on one of the trunks.
I pulled one of the arrows from the tree and noticed that the tip was laced with some sort of poison, which I could only detect since it extruded a bit of MP from it.
Moreover, the arrow had some sort of engraving, and the feathers were of very high quality, leading me to believe that these weren't the arrows of random hunters.
That night, we returned to the base, and I showed the arrow to the group while we were having dinner around the fire.
"Hmm, that looks like an elven arrow…" said Vespera in between bites of her sandwich.
