A lone wolf crosses your path, both lost and sad. Thinking he may know something about what's been going on, you approach him.
What happened?	"I was responsible for them... two young wolves from my pack went missing during a hunting lesson yesterday. I can't return without them." There is clear determination but no hope in his voice and you just listen in silence. You offer up some information about your journey and some possible clues that may help. The wolf gratefully gives you something he found while looking for the puppies.	+1 Smoky Quartz

A young wolf is cowering on the ground, its eyes white and wide with terror.
Are you okay?	"The lights... they keep following me... I can't... escape them..." The young wolf splutters her words out between gasping breaths. Before you can reply to ask more, she gets up and runs away, leaving you clueless. What lights? Oh--she left something behind. You quickly swipe it up.	+1 Smoky Quartz

This wolf's behavior seems odd and you have no idea what it is but it's giving off strange vibes. He's looking around with a puzzled expression as if he were born today or completely lost.
Come closer	You approach the wolf and he is visibly relieved. "Finally! A friendly face. Where are we? What are these strange plants?" The wolf continues to chatter on, asking question after question that even a young pup would know. Maybe he wasn't from around here? Yet there's something off about him, and you can't help but wonder if there's something else going on. While he's distracted by a plant, you slip away. A few steps away, you find a strange object, which you decide to take. Maybe it will help you solve these mysteries.	+1 Smoky Quartz

Two curious pups are sniffing and playing around the weirdest mushrooms you've ever seen. You're no expert, but they definitely don't look edible.
Warn	You approach to warn the pups not to eat or lick the mushrooms, explaining to them that they aren't native to this land and may cause them to get sick. The pups agree not to touch them again and to inform the herbalist of their pack as soon as possible. You inspect the mushrooms yourself to be sure, and you notice a small object tucked between them.	+1 Smoky Quartz

You come across a young pup wandering alone. You look around but there is no adult wolf nearby.
Are you lost?	"I want to go home but they're still there." He lowers his voice to a whisper and you can see genuine fear in his eyes. You check the way ahead of you but if there was anything strange here before, it's gone now. The young wolf gathers his courage after hearing the good news. You follow him for a while to make sure he's safe. A small, oddly shaped object catches your attention for a moment, but when you look back up, the wolf is nowhere to be seen.	+1 Smoky Quartz

An exhausted looking wolf chances upon you, and seems relieved to see someone to talk to. He asks about his lost son who disappeared the day before.
Stop	"After hearing a description and sniffing his scent, you don't have good news but you promise to contact him in case you find any trace of him. You spend some time talking about this strange phenomenon and the wolf gives you something he found on the way. Maybe you'll make good use of it."	+1 Smoky Quartz 5% Energy

Ignore	"You don't have time to waste, you need to concentrate on looking for more clues. Pretending to be too far away to notice him, you continue your journey. The wolf turns back after a while and you use this moment to rest and gather your thoughts. While resting, you notice a shiny placed amongst the roots of a plant nearby."	+1 Smoky Quartz 5% Energy

A wolf hurries to get past you, carrying a strange plant in its mouth. The plant looks weird, and unlike any you've seen before.
What have you got there?	The wolf looks at you incredulously for a moment before tilting his head to better reveal the plant. It's small and green, with four egg-shaped leaves, and a mop of white fluffy petals on top. The wolf drops the herb to speak. "It's clover, obviously. Don't you know your herbs?" Bewildered by your blank expression, the wolf scoops it back up again and walks off, shaking his head as he goes. You notice a small object kicked up by the wolf's paws and tuck it away for safekeeping.	+1 Smoky Quartz
Give me that!	-	Automatic battle with a Wolf. Winning drops: 1 SQ & 1 Random Coigreach Herb

A young wolf is walking alone, looking both excited and confused. His face lights up when he noticed you and it's clear that he can barely contain himself.
Tell me everything you know	"This is incredible! I thought I know this area well, all the good hunting spots and all... but something strange is happening lately." The young wolf keeps describing animals and plants you've never seen or heard of before. At some point, you're not sure if this kid is making things up or not, but his emotions seem trie. To try to convince you more, he gives you a strange thing he found next to some of the unknown plants.	+1 Smoky Quartz

A wolf is inspecting the area very carefully, sniffing every rock and every branch with visible pain in his eyes. You can almost feel the tension.
Can I help you?	The wolf doesn't seem to even notice you until you come really close. His gaze shifts away from you for a moment. "I don't know if anyone can help me. She's gone. My beloved... She's completely gone. No trace, no scent, no sign..." Before you can ask further, he's gone, nose to the ground, searching desperately for any scent. It seems, in his search, the wolf lost something along the way - but now he's too far away to give it back. You take it with you instead.	+1 Smoky Quartz
	The wolf barely acknowledges you at first, but with some gentle prying he reveals that his mate became the second member of their pack to disappear suddenly. "I'm trying to find her, but I'm afraid that my search will be in vain. Be careful you don't get lost too." He heads away, nose to the ground, searching desperately for any scent.

You come upon a wolf laying very still and staring off into the distance, appearing to be deep in thought.
Is something wrong?	"Everything is wrong. The world as we know it is changing. I've seen them... the lights. They keep appearing out of nowhere. Following me, haunting my dreams... Listen to me and escape somewhere safe. This land is cursed and it all started from this. I found that thing a couple of days ago. Do me a favor and destroy it, maybe it will change something for the better." The old wolf doesn't even let you get a word in edgeways, and pushes an object into your paws. You assume he won't take no for an answer, so take it with you.	+1 Smoky Quartz

A tall, graceful bird is standing ahead of you on one leg, relaxed and unaware of your presence. It reminds you of a heron, but the scent is wrong, and you feel uneasy as you study it.
Attack	This is a perfect moment. You manage to creep up and snatch the bird successfully before it could even spread its wings!	+1 Smoky Quartz 15% Hunger OR Energy
	You decide to cautiously approach, crouching low into a stalking position. The bird's keen eyes notice you before you take more than a few steps. You follow its silhouette in the sky until it disappears, wondering where it came from. Turning back to continue on your way, you come across a small object in the dirt. It smells funny just like the bird did, but you take it with you anyway.	+1 Smoky Quartz

A strange, ginger rodent is sitting comfortably on the ground, minding its own business. It's definitely a squirrel but why is it so bright? And why are its ears so pointy?
Sniff it	You go a bit closer to check out this strange fur. Is it even real? Is this squirrel ill, or is it a new mutation? You want to ask this question but when you open your mouth, the squirrel escapes in fear, leaving the tiny object it was holding in its paws.	+1 Smoky Quartz
Chase it	The chase was short, and soon you are devouring the squirrel, which tastes just like any other squirrel you'd eaten before. You're a bit disappointed. Before you leave, you notice a piece of dark rock on the ground. This must have been what the squirrel was playing with, and you snatch it up quickly.	+1 Smoky Quartz 10% Hunger

You notice an unfamiliar animal among the bushes.
Who are you?	As you come closer, you realise that this creature is not completely alien to you but its pattern is different to others you have seen. The creature looks at you, puzzled, and your expression is probably similar. You've seen badgers many times before - perhaps this was a new mutation? The creature in front of you is somewhat similar but larger, darker, more fluffy, and supposedly friendly. Almost cute. The badgers you know are snarling, hostile balls of ruffled fur. After a while, he leaves you with your doubts. You notice a small object on the ground. It probably belonged to the creature but you take it to inspect it later.	+1 Smoky Quartz

Kill it	This creature and its harmless appearance seems weak, so you decide to try your luck and satisfy your increasing hunger. To your surprise, the strange badger turns out to be just as aggressive as the ones you know--but you win without much struggle. Tasty.	+2 Meat Chunks [Medium] -5 HP

A lone wolf crosses your path, both lost and sad. Thinking he may know something about what's been going on, you approach him.
What are you doing here?	"You tell me." The large lynx stares at you with its piercing gaze. "What is this place? I don't recognize anything. Oh... I found this. Take it, I'm done with strange things for today. I just want to go home".	+1 Smoky Quartz
