Chapter 4

In all my travels of the underdark, there have always been fascinating creatures
that I have come in contact with. I have learned much about them all. The
Cavefishers, the Fungoids, the many different types of insects. Even the
many different breeds of marine life in the underdark sea, but none have
fascinated me as much as the displacer beast. Similarly to the Cavefischer's,
these beast are strong and capable, but they tend to be have a more pack
mentality.

Recently I encountered their pack, as they were out for a hunt. The hunger in
in their eyes were clear, and their intent to kill strong, there was something
more behind it. A certain intelligence, or obedience behind it. While I
bested the beta I was fighting, in a desperate attempt, it struck me with a
paralytic bite, that left me unable to move, and instead of killing me, it
took me to the lair of it's Alpha. I was never more thrilled as I had never
experienced this in my youth before, perhaps if I did, I'd be dead already.

As we approached each other, staring each other down, the alpha and I danced
a dance of death like two wild beast trapped in the caves. It's shimmering form
phasing in and out existence, as my spear would reach it from time to time, it's
tendrils lashing about me, tripping me up and a bite here and there, tearing
flesh as my blood splattered. I called upon my trained wargs to come fight this
beast with me, though it was clever and handled it well, it ultimately was
defeated. I had thought perhaps after beating the alpha, the other betas would
perhaps fall in line and allow me to tame them, but perhaps there is something
deeper to them I am misunderstanding. I will try to understand them further.
