The Spider Wald in the Dark Forest looks like a place straight from the nightmares of an Arachnophobe. Tall trees with thick brown trunks tower upwards to a canopy of thick foliage and cob webs that block almost all light; silken strands cover this entire area and large, silent shadows lurk awaiting the unwary. Its is a place where Nature still thrives, a place where its residents might say 'it has options' and selects often and without mercy.

A low rumble preceding a cracking of the earths crust and rising out of the detritus came two goblin figures, carrying a third, headless corpse. One, haunched over and cowled, turned to the other. "Bubbles. Fetch the rest, I'll get Baiter"...

They crept from holes, leapt from branches. They oozed from pools and scampered from shadows. To the bubbling cauldron skittered and bickered the mass of the Spider Tribe. Atop a rickety ladder balanced Baiter stirring with a barge pole and scattering fungi into the broth. On the harsh edge of survival nothing goes to waste.

The sound of The Feast is something terrible. A silence broken by an insipid slurping, bone cracks and flares of snatching. "Where did his head go? What are we to keep to remember him by Sha' ? He was a good example!"
"It had to go, it had a higher purpose."
"What do you mean 'Higher Purpose'!? You've just fucked up again 'aint ya."
"I don't feel like I fucked up Baiter..."
"And how's that then?!"
"He said he couldn't take it anymore, he felt like he was being called by Spider on to greater things. He wanted to go, He could see his path and it wasn't the one he was currently on. He's better off, He's happy."
"Flowery words. Truth Time Sha'."
"Ten grand for the bounty, Bubbles has your half but she never sticks about for this sort of thing. Good luck finding her." The pair shared a wicked grin and Baiter stalked away. "Bubbles... Where are you...?"
