Hunlief

The Hunlief is an enigmatic "beast" stalking the shadows of Tarddiad that has been sealed away by Skil Lage and a few wordweavers - Only one of the unnamed wordweavers surviving and escaping to report the story. The Hunlief was previously kept at bay by the "Great Flame", which, upon Seren's departure with eight of nine houses, was terribly understaffed and went out.

"The Great Flame continues to burn. That is something at least. Even though the Crwys no longer remember to send us the logs to ignite it. The light at least continues to keep the Hunlief back in the shadows. Do they not realise the danger that they leave us all in with their negligence?

The great flame has gone out. We just can't maintain everything. Skil Lage took a few wordweavers to the Hunlief's lair. Only one made it back. She told me that Skil sacrificed himself to seal that beast away forever. He was the best of us, yet only Cywir will remember his name. As is our tradition." - Myf, Storykeeper of Cysur in the Ancient Tarddian Journal.

It is curious why a creature detained by three elves was spoken of so ominously by the Cywir. More so why Seren did not interfere during her time with the elves of Tarddiad, though this is possibly due to her pacifism.
