Dark Brood

I'm sure you have noticed, but those recent events have several suspicious points.
These Monsters have never been so wild, and one of our guards who went to scout reported that he saw a figure in a black robe at the Gnoll Chargers camp.
I heard a brood of Dark Shadows was spotted at the Lake of Fury near Northernland, so it might be one of them...
This is a mark we just got from Gnoll Chargers. This is something I've never seen before.

Take this <HFFFA7272>Gnoll Charger's Mark<HFFFFFFFF> with my report to <HFFFA7272>Elder Spuknik<HFFFFFFFF> at the <HFFFA7272>Center of Cien<HFFFFFFFF>. Please.

Ascetic, don't you remember? This is the same mark you brought from Quan.
It must have something to do with recent Monster attacks against Cien.
Now, I'm quite certain that there is someone trying to harm us. But who could it be? And to what end?
Our guards are doing their best to investigate this case, so we'll know the truth soon enough. Please help us again when the time comes.
