Forsaken howlers... One of many monsters said to dwell in the Forbidden Zone...

Stobe's Gamble

Deeper into the Forbidden Zone... This place doesn't feel good.

Stobe's Gamble

They'll suck out your eyeballs and leave you blind in the Ashlands...

Stobe's Gamble

Brings to mind the foresaken howlers you hear of only in songs...

Stobe's Gamble

'They'll suck out your eyes with no-one to hear your cries'...

Bystander

I do not need eyeballs. The Shek are trained in the art of blind war as mere children.

Bystander

A legend is just a legend. Until you've seen it with your own eyes, take the rumours lightly...

Bystander

... *gulp*

Bystander

They'll suck out your eyes with no-one to hear your cries!

Bystander

I am prepared. My eyeballs are ready.

Stobe's Gamble

Well, you would say that. You don't have any eyeballs.

Bystander

Great... We'll cross that bridge when we get to it, eh...

Stobe's Gamble

... Yeah...

Stobe's Gamble

... Blind war?... Why?

Bystander

Of course I do.

Stobe's Gamble

Too late! You'll have no eyes!

Stobe's Gamble

Thanks for that.

Bystander

In the case that forsaken howlers are to suck our eyes out.

Stobe's Gamble

They're not eyeballs. I mean, what are those even made of?

Bystander

...

Stobe's Gamble

Well. The shek are prepared for everything, aren't they...

Stobe's Gamble

Pearl? Metal? Magic?

Stobe's Gamble

And they've got all these tentacle arms they snatch you with...

Bystander

Yes. Yes, we are.

Bystander

...

Stobe's Gamble

And-

Stobe's Gamble

By all means, be the first to offer up your magic 'eyeballs' to the foresaken howlers.

Bystander

All in favour of NO talking say 'aye'...

Stobe's Gamble

That would certainly be a welcome change to the food chain.

Bystander

*sigh*

Bystander

Aye!

Stobe's Gamble

Aye!

Stobe's Gamble

Eyes!
