Stories of the strange, obsidian-skinned four-armed and bestial beings with their burning red eyes and stark white hair have long fascinated and terrified the people of our lands, but the curious nature of their friendliness was always the strangest part of the tale.
As our people approach their jungle, seeking them out in various ways, it does not take long for us to find them. They appear out of the jungle, tall and lithe yet quite athletic, able to swing from the trees and move in their environment with surprising speed and stealth for creatures of their size, standing at least a head or two taller than a full-grown man on average.
Their friendliness has not dimmed, and they are more than happy to greet us warmly and offer us food; much like in the past, sweet fruits and leafy vegetables as well as succulent animal meat. The draegloths live in a small tribe of perhaps no more than one hundred to three hundred individuals spread across several family units, each protected by something akin to a patriarch. They tell you the stories of their people.
As far as they know, their kind has always been here in the jungle, as it has afforded them shelter, food and ample ground from which to hunt and grow strong. They know nothing of their origin: where they came from, or why. There is a word sometimes spoken of in their oral tradition, an unknown word handed down from their ancestors; "Elf." The word has lost all connotation to them, except for a very loose association with their word for the concept of the sun setting. In other words, west.
They have never traveled in that direction, only ever staying in their jungle.
What further interactions, questions or proposals do we have for the draegloths?
