Awakening of the Scrumhogs
On the Isle of Vesucia in Bondero Bay, a family of merians settled to start farming the rich soil there. Unfortunately, this awoke the scrumhogs, artificial creatures created by ancient magic which were thought to have died out during the Taint Wars. It took the combined efforts of Archmage Marinus aided by Rika Talnara to create a energy field that would repel the scrumhogs. Only time will tell how long this field may hold.
