The Bloodhand is asking you to head to the Western frontier lands, to deal with a dastardly tribe of Elves that have been attacking settlers in the Elfir Valley. The Bloodhand has financial interest in the area, and several highly placed politicians in the communities are staunch allies to the Bloodhand.
The Elves are apparently disturbed at the deforestation occurring as settlers expand their towns, farmlands, and lumber industry - which is ridiculous, because when asked if they owned the land, the Elves said 'no'. Well, they said, "No, the lands belong to the greater glory of blessed Corellon the Forest Lord" -- but that's still 'no'!
In short... the Bloodhand has an infestation of Elves, and they're calling on you to be the exterminators. Game is back on, after an August hiatus. New players welcome to join!
