Message from Gnarley Ranger Knight Owain:

A ranger son of the forest, Loerran Swiftarrow has not been seen for over a week.
He was to report to the oak father what he has found about the evil hunts that
have been occurring.

His absence has the oak father concerned for his safety. Please, in Ehlonna’s name
seek out the elf Swiftarrow and aid him if needed. Beware of the evil that is
reported to be lurking in the forest of his guardianship.

A patrol of Gnarley Rangers will be in the area in 3 days if you should need their
assistance. Until then, Poe will stay in your area and alert us if there is a greater
need. Our efforts with the roaming undead have us stretching our ranks thin at
the moment.

Swiftarrow has a griffon companion that is also his mount.

Ranger Knight Owain

May Ehlonna be your guide in her Wilds.
