Creature
Hydra
A Hydra has reportedly been sighted within the crater of Mortenox. Davos Fratz, once leader of the hunters' guild of Vansreik and now risen in the military branch of the Morenar, wants to find a way into the crater so that he can hunt the monstrosity and find its lair.1
A hydra also killed a noble's family as they were swimming in a lake. It was one of the beasts hunted by Shaila Bellwater as she moved on to more dangerous work.2
