A Yamaer Welcome to the Nyre
The initial journey into the Nyre was eerily calm. While they didn't see signs of other Kurach, they also didn't see signs of wildlife or birds. Just the pesky gnats and parasitic insects that plague all forests. A few scouts were sent out to find some kind of game, as their rations were running low, and the raiders settled down to rest for the first time in a few weeks.
The scouts returned with a few deer and hogs they managed to find a long distance from the raider camp. It wasn't much, but between that and what little they managed to gather nearby, the raiders were able to keep themselves fed as they rested and planned their march through the Nyre.
The night before they were to resume their conquest, they were visited by the deep cave hounds. The raiders had kept their campfires well maintained in preparation for a gryphon attack, but were not prepared for the blue-black scales of the yamaer, or their venom. Even though the raiders successfully drove off the yamaer, those who had been bitten or scratched fell severely ill within a few hours.

A Yamaer Welcome to the Nyre
The raiders had to go full feral for this one.
And tax season is finally over! Good riddance! Bad enough dealing with the stupidity of Congress and the IRS without all the other crap that comes with an office job. To top it off, I got the pinkeye too. Ugh... Grounded me from work two days early. With one office manager out with cancer treatments, another out from infections in his ears, sinuses, and throat, all that was left to run the front was me. On top of ten hours a day doing my job in the back preparing tax returns during the procrastinator rush and doing part of the receptionist's job when they got snowed under. And then I'm down for the count. Hope they managed alright those last two days. This has easily been the worst season I've worked through.
