Horgun is always watchful when he goes hunting.

He mostly watches out for the K'Ryth. Some of them have wings. Others have claws. Some don't have any shape, just masses of tentacles. The K'ryth like to eat Kurza - especially the magic-speakers. Horgun doesn't speak magic, but he doesn't care. He is a hunter.

Today, Horgun is watching out for Uthuk Y'llan. He saw them this morning and hid in the rocks while they went by. He tried to count all the Uthuk warriors, but it made his head hurt. Before, when the Uthuk came to the Kurza lands, they were looking for Kurza to take as slaves. But when Horgun saw them this morning, the Uthuk were not going to the caves where the other Kurza lived. Instead they were going south towards the Green Lands.

Horgun has never seen the Green Lands, but the old ones say Kurza used to live there long, long ago. They say Kurza lived in a place called Nojold with others that were like them, but smaller and weaker. When the others got jealous, they drove Kurza out to this place of K'Ryth and Uthuk. The others wanted Kurza to die, but the Kurza were too strong!

Some of the other Kurza say they have seen strangers coming up from the Green Lands. Horgun didn't believe them before, but now that he's seen the Uthuk going to the Green Lands, he knows what's going on. The Uthuk are fighting the strangers, making them slaves instead of Kurza.

Horgun smiles. He likes the idea fo the Uthuk enslaving the ones who sent the Kurza to this place.
