Sentar after having left the group of pirates headed around the Griffon Mountains. Not long into the first day Sentar reached into his pack to pull out more jerky and after a minute of feeling realized Kaelmourns party must have taken more than he throught. No matter, Sentar began his hunt.
All day Sentar searched, finding plenty of berries along the way to satiate my hunter, but after almost all day of finding nothing... Sentar encountered a Dire Bear. The bear was destroying the woods, but it was a part of nature, the dead animals it left in its wake would nourish the fungus that would return them to the earth. Sentar lowered his guard and walked away from the dire bear unable to muster up the reasoning to kill it. There would be no way for me to eat all the that bears meat and some would go to waste. Sentar then gave up his hunt for the day and continued on his journey nourishing himself with berries.

Sentar continued his arduous journey through the hills to the south of Griffon Mountain. After 4 days of travel his woodland allies began to tell him of a party of adventurers not far off to the east. Sentar with new found vigor continued east through the hills. At the top of the hill Sentar could see his country men, Hurko and Tacere. He called out to them, but it wasn't just his country men that heard his call. As he rushed to them four Griffons descended into the trees above them. "Griffons!" Sentar whispered to the other two, "We could try and reason with them, they are intelligent creatures." Hukro then rebuked "are you crazy the chances of you getting them all to befriend you are far too risky!" After some heavy debate the party decided to sneak away from the griffons.

That night at the campfire discussion was tense. Hukro was upset that he hadn't had a chance to hack and cleave his way through battle yet. Hukro said "Sentar why did you run! Four Griffons were very doable, and if we managed to kill them we would have gotten so much battle experience, I can feel it. In this realm the god favors me and will protect me when my luck falters!" Thret was a quiet man, but at this he spoke up "Luck has nothing to do with the god of this Realm! Our luck is our own, this 'god' you speak of will not take the risk of interfering with our lives!" Sentar kept quiet he had nothing more to add to this conversation he just kept at his cooking, he was making some wonderful mushroom stew. Secretly Sentar regretted passing up the opportunity to become friends with the Griffons of Griffon Mountain, but he knew in his heart that the risk was too high to risk his companions lives. Sentar started to wonder if he would be better off on his own.

The next morning Sentar awoke first, the other two members of his party slept like the dead as if their souls weren't even there. Sentar decided to let them rest a while, in the meantime he would prepare breakfast. *Groan* Hukro woke up "What is that smell?" Half drooling Hukro got up. Sentar wasn't sure if he was drooling out of stupidity or hunger, barbarians weren't known for being very intelligent. Hukro between bites of his food got out the sentence "What do I get to kill today? I want to savor in the lust of battle!" Sentar let out a sigh, this savage just wanted to kill and burn everything in his path for glory.

Today the journey was rough, both Hukro and Tacere were slowing Sentar down. Hukro's incessant complaining that we had yet to fight anything this week was getting on Sentar's nerves. Hukro started to complain once again when Tacere interrupted him "Is that a dust storm in the distance?" Sentar knew better that dust in the air was from some sort of stampede "No I think something is coming this way" Sentar answered. Before long it became obvious that a herd of Centaur were coming this way.

This week of travel had been dangerous, none of us had found an enemy to fight. The party were all pretty green but we wanted to show each other our prowess in battle. As the herd of centaurs rode up the party debated its action. Hukro stood tall and demanded that this was our last chance to fight this week so Sentar should run in and try to bargain with the centaurs "what have you got to lose Sentar? It's our last chance this week!"
"What have I got to lose?!" Sentar argued "oh nothing but... MY LIFE! Are you so vain that it is so easy for you to send an ally to his grave?! Protect the sanctity of life."
Hukro would hear none of this and ran out into the open plain. "You'll see fools! I will never return because I will gloriously win this battle and bring shame to all of you!" He shouted over his shoulder. Hukro ran in front of the herd of centaurs path. To Sentar the herd did not even slow as they passed him, but once the dust settled he was no longer there. The centaurs killed him amidst there herd as they past through, likely several of them had his arms and legs and were feasting on his flesh as they continued on.
Sentar was not upset to see Hukro vanish, but his mind was unsettled as if this was a sign that he should not continue his journey back to Valencia if he could not protect even one stupid barbarian. (Hukro has left this campaign)

Later that night after the centaur encounter Sentar and Tacere were sleeping around the banked coals of the campfire. Sentar laying in the tree dreaming. His dreams fluttered her and there, he dreamed of himself returning to Valencia as a metropolis destroying the forest and slinging heaps of trash into the river. Sentar floated above this city distraught that his king would disrespect nature so much. As hate started to boil up inside Sentar watching this site the city started to burn.

As Sentar's dreams continued to wander he saw Renen and Dorthy hunting. Renen was showing his power by summoning tons of eagles to swarm his opponents. This hunt was Renen and Dorthy fighting a pack of wolves. Sentar screamed for them to run, but Renen spent his time calling eagles to his aid his swarm of eagles only managed to take down one wolf. Renen's magic ran dry and he turned to run and only after running called for Dorthy to retreat. Sentar watching this was scared for both of them as they tried to flee, there was no way that they could escape the pack of wolves, but by some miracle they managed not to get away from the wolves.

Sentar then began to dream of flying west over the mountains and into the forest East of Volkenheim. As he flew he noticed a huge orc, it seemed to live in these woods hunting and gathering. The orc tried to befriend a boar, unfortunately the boar attacked him and forced him to defend himself. This orc is befriending animals, Sentar suddenly becme interested in the orc and continued to circle him watching him hunt and become part of the cycle of nature for the forest.
The branch cracked startling Sentar out of his dreams. He awoke with a sense of urgency, he had to meet this orc. Some city dwellers would call him crazy for believing his dreams, but in the wild Sentar was raised to trust his dreams and instincts because they are brought to him by nature to guide his life.
Sentar silently packed his bags and left in search of this orc who lived inside the cycle of nature.
