It had begun naturally, someone shouted about catching the first beast of the night and suddenly twenty youngsters were competing to see who could bring back the largest prey within two hours.
Meng Bai joined them with enthusiasm, though Lin Mu decided to sit this one out. Cattaleya considered joining but decided she would probably end the competition too quickly and ruin the fun, so she stayed behind and roasted skewers with Little Shrubby.

While everyone was sitting around the fires, chatting and eating Little Shrubby's grilled fire boar skewers, a faint tremor passed through the ground. It was not enough to topple anything, but Lin Mu's sword sense reacted immediately.
Seconds later, a rumbling roar echoed through the forest.
A Fifth Tribulation Stage Forest Lindwyrm had woken up!
