Once everyone is assembled, and as wide-awake as they’re going to get, you take your place before them all and scan the assembly. The forge is functioning, seemingly, and the next steps in the process only really require Ayla and Veigar (and a couple boglins for translation purposes). That leaves the rest of the Monstrous Regiment at your disposal!
But SHOULD you bring them all?
Base defence is one consideration. It doesn’t take a seasoned adventuress like yours truly to know that a dungeon undefended is a dungeon soon looted. Few people know of Patmo-Shoka, but those who do include a bunch of nerdy small-fries, the local representatives of the Wolfpack Horde, and motorcycling Treasuretrove Incorporated. You HOPE you’ve thrown the last of those three off the scent, but you can’t be sure, nor can you be confident that no other elves or humans will come out this way once they realize it’s not Unseelie central anymore.
And another consideration… Is Khorine.
Now, you’ve grown fond of the kid, you’ll admit it. The little faun Fey-follower is quite a powerful caster for her age, and only going to get better. Even as she is, her affinity for animals and fairy-affiliated entities could prove useful, depending what exactly this hundun even is. At the very least, her ability to navigate difficult terrain, to entangle with enchanted plant-life, and to handle frightened animals makes her invaluable for bringing this thing in alive…
But she’s also firmly Chaotic Good, emphasis on the ‘Good’ part.
For a nature-loving little beastgirl who grew up in the woods, that means—as the last discussion of the hunt revealed—a whole lot of misgivings about snagging a shapeshifting freak and turning it over to some Eastman to lop its bits off for potions and pills. And you can respect that, you guess… But a girl’s gotta get paid, and THIS payday is more important than most. There MIGHT be a way to make the most out of the hundun in a humane and consensual manner, you guess… But trapping it in a net and handing it off is a hell of a lot easier.
Who will you send/bring on the hunt?
>Zith-Zi (comes with Hershy)
>Cara-Zi (comes with Nermal)
>Yeb-Uit
>An-Yii
>Khorine
>Xoldur
>Murbal
>Dura
>Martyn
>Copperbelt
>Brand-Hrok
