Zzrracck "Purple" could be seen visiting Eklob from time to time with Hams and steaks. On one trip he could be seen carrying a large saddle like seat and big nets and ropes. As to what is happening inside the cave of the bear only the very observant of people could understand/guess.

A roar is heard from the cave and sometime later the nets wash up on the bank close to Villa Goldvein. Whether the lizard escaped remains to be seen but the bear seems to be content again, now sleeping on the stuffing from the ripped open saddle.

The lizard may have secured the Don and Left Hand's approval for this venture with promises of riches for the town but if he was to move any goods he would need to win the confidence of Galmair's mascot. The bear had been captured some years past now and was content in his cave, well fed by the Galmairians but few had ever managed to take him out to work.

Now that the Mas is over Purple starts his efforts again to get Eklob on his side again.
After finding out that the bear was being well fed and looked after by the others; Purple asks around for advice to help train Eklob for his needs.

One of the advice was to provide better comfort for the bear in the cave. Some townsmen said that it might be cold due to the cave being near the lake.

After a while Zzrracck could be seen carrying lots of fur and logs to the cave along with a small lantern.
A bit more than the usual campfire light could be seen inside the cave from the other shore if anyone watches closely.

Rumors go around that a foreign dwarf comes by here and there and feeds Eklob.
Some even say that there is a special kind of beer the dwarf bring with himself that the bear loves.

Some other have seen the bear and the dwarf stting next to each other, drinking beer and talking about something. Well the dwarf talks, the bear drinks.
Maybe some older citizen knows something about the dwarf?

With fond memories of the dwarf and his stories, a witch occasionally visits the bear bringing certain things that he liked she had made, sharing more stories and talking of their last outing when he proudly displayed his mascot coat at the games in Cadomyr. Laying a warm metal hand gently on the top of his neck she leans to whisper.


I agree, it has been too long since you saw the raven or had a nice outing...maybe something should be planned for a treat?
