Hunter's Guild: Return to the Wilds

[Hunters Guild]

GOLD MARK	SILVER MARK	BRONZE MARK
WANTED: Giant Forest Golem Beneath all natural armor is a rocky puppet of magical make. While "peaceful" from a distance they have become a nuisance to our hard working ground team in the area. The guild is looking for brave adventurers willing to put an end to these walking constructs and bring us their still humming core for further investigation. Don't be fooled by their size and speed — they pack a powerful punch.	WANTED: Will-o'-the-wisp Unlike the few numbered Giant Forest Golem, these ghastly buggers have been coming out in force; a quite deadly one at that. We need them cleared out and we're not only paying for pest control, but also for their ghostly essences. Purchase an essence collector from the Guild for an easier time, or else be prepared to get your hands sticky. Warning: We're not responsible for any soul loss.	COLLECT: Sky Touched Gems What appears to be simple purple gems are highly unstable lightning attuned aether shards. Due to their connection with multiple imagery on found artifacts the guild has started using "Sky Touched Gems" when referring to them. Original, we know. Gather as many of them as you can find and you'll be rewarded. Warning: Keep behind statues when prying gems from sockets or else you'll be in for a deadly shock.
LOCATION: The Wilds	LOCATION: The Wilds	LOCATION: The Deep Wilds, within the ruined temple grounds.
Proof of Hunt: Humming Golem Core	Proof of Hunt: Ghostly Essence	Proof of Hunt: Collected Gems

WARNING: The guild is not responsible for any loss of limbs, sanity, life, etc. Proof of Hunts must be turned in to the Hunter's Guild Headquarters in Old Market.

[Aiden Harper]

Koyan's questions about the Will o' the Wisps he'd captured had him flashing another quick grin. "Yeah, they're on the list this month. I'll probably get a few hundred for each of them. I found some of the gems they wanted, too, so that's some extra coin." He twisted a little to fish a couple of the purple gems out of the pockets of the pack that held the Wisps. He showed those to the Turk as they walked. "I've got a few for En and for Spock, too." ***

After the incident at the Golden Perch Inn, Aiden only had two live Wisps to turn into the guild. He supplemented the haul with a handful of the purple crystals, some just jagged shards, that he'd collected during the hunt. Even the splinters were still completely charged!

At the close of the season and his eventual return to the city, the man makes his visit to the Guild's proof-of-hunt claims window in Old Market. After many exciting summer adventures in the wilds, he presents copious amounts of all three proofs: humming golem cores, ghostly essences, and sky touched gems.
