Event Description

A few nights ago Zen was walking through the forest and she saw something that looked like a drow.  Last night she went to Jhaesoph’s apple tree and saw the same creature lurking nearby. Why would a drow be here in NeoVictoria?  Concerned, she gathers the citizens for a hunt.  Mr. Lucian picks up the scent, but this interloper turns out to be more than they bargained for!
