There's a legend, you see, which claims that if you were to crush the beastlord's horn, and steep it into a brew, you would know the tongue of beasts by the time you'd drunk a draft. Now, the legend doesn't say what exactly this "beastlord" may be, so to ascertain the truth of the matter, experiments were performed in antiquity using the powdered horns of many a creature.
If reports are true, they learned what is meant by the "beastlord," yet none remain to tell the tale, for all those who participated were transformed into fell humbabas, and were never seen again! |
