Arright.
Lakami
Armed with long spears and javelins you backtrack the humans' path, finding another small group, who flee to the south. Pursuing them through the dunes. Eventually you find another encampment- a group of large bipedal lizards. You think these are the lizards those other humans talked about. Interesting.
Back home, your experiments bear glass. You discover a hard crystal thing from melting sand.
Acid-Maws
Pursuing the human slave north, you get frustrated, thinking you've lost them when about half the escaped slaves flee into your camp screaming about snakes. About five minutes later, some massive snakes with humanish torsos, arms and heads crest the dune. How odd.
Flame
Your trap works, but some magic pulls the soldiers back- They've started fighting smarter. You're heading back to your cave to rest a little when the ground heaves, trees uproot and splinter- You watch a tree older than the Iomeeran empire fall in a cloud of splinters as it's roots are crushed by the bucking earth, and something sounds like it's... bubbling?
Regardless, you rest in your cave for a night, but wake up shortly after dawn- the trees that still stand smell... wrong.
Tree
You investigate the cliff, but find nothing that might hurt your goats. You have carried half of them up the cliff, when the ground shudders. The cliff gives way, crushing the goats beneath it, and the goats above fall to their death. Your previously large herd is now reduced to the five you were carrying. To make matters worse, your cave has collapsed too.
Ijzervolk
You set sail for the desert to find glorious war. You will arrive next turn. The shaman tells of two rivers- One northern, with two mouths to sail up, and one southern with only one mouth. Apparently either will lead you to the war you seek, but will lead you to much different fights.
Yinglet
The goat herd you were watching was guarded by a dragon, but the majority was crushed under a collapsing cliff face during the heaving of the earth. You attempt to bargain for spears made for you, but they turn you away for being "too poor" However, one man offers to pay for your spears if him and some "Associates" can study you.
