[h1][i][color=crimson]The Levogh - Turn 3[/color][/i][/h1][/center]

The elves were perfectly content with the owls watching over them, however some felt quite uneasy by the fact that they had not been seen feeding. Some superstitious folk believed the Owl King was counting down the days to when they would eat the Levogh! How foolish. Any elf who knew their calendar knew that a full moon was approaching soon. Three days ago it was six days 'til full moon. Now there were three. Célebron figured the Owl King was drawing lines in the dirt to indicate such. He wondered however, what did the owls want? Why were they telling the elves of the full moon? Were they indeed spirits, and would transform into something knew? Were the owls the elves that had dwelled here before, the ones who built these ruins?
Perhaps in time, an answer would be given. For now, there were work to be done instead of pondering over spirits. While they were fed and sheltered somewhat for now, Blackeye and his closest felt it wasn't enough. No parent should have to worry about how to feed their child.
[i]"Scour the rivers, search the lake. With these forests brimming with life, surely the waters are full of it as well. We can fish these waters."[/i] he proposed. and so the Levogh constructed crude rafts and fishing poles to fish the lake and used their spears to fish the rivers.
Once the scouts had returned, Célebron had another mission in mind. He summoned his most skilled rangers.
[i]"We did not travel so far and survive so much by knowing nothing. I want to know what else this land holds. Gwyneth, take a few scouts and travel north. Follow the river and see what else is out there. Be careful once you're out of the forest."[/i] he said to his lead scout, Gwyneth, a young elf maiden skilled in tracking and marksmanship.
[i]"Kalorn, gather your men and travel south-west. Follow the river as well, return once you've found anything of note or when you find the end of the river."[/i] Célebron continued to Kalorn, a veteran elf warrior with exceptional eyesight and strength.
[i]"Moragh, take the last group of scouts and travel east. You will also follow the river and see where it leads. Your orders are the same as Kalorn's. May the spirits watch over you all. Good luck."[/i]
Each party consisted of 3-4 elves and left Wildhome one party per day.

Once all scouting parties had left Wildhome, Célebron wandered around the settlement. The ruins still had to be fully explored and repaired. They weren't much more than shelter for now, but compared to shacks and huts this was luxury. There would be plenty of time to explore their new home once they had made sure the forest is safe from the outside. Who knows what awaits them out there, who seeks their resources or lives. Then, he met the gaze of the Owl King from a distance. They looked at each other for but a moment before the great spirit flew away. [i]"The full moon is tonight... I hope you'll have had enough time to ponder my words, watcher."[/i] he said to himself, placing a flower at the base of the Owl Totem. Once the fishing operations had gotten up and running and food wasn't as big of an issue, Célebron planned on finally investigating the mushrooms that cover the forest....

[hider=Summary][b]A)[/b] Improve food by fishing the lake and rivers.
[b]E)[/b] Send three parties to follow the rivers north, east and south-west. They are to return once they find something of note or can no longer follow the river.[/hider]
