A Scourging of the Forest
As the Blue Moon Crew retreat from their defeat at the Geoid Mine they approach the edge of woodlands patrolled by the Wood Elves of The Bright Curse. These Elves are aware of the depredations of Goblinoids in their vicinity and so are patrolling the borders of the forest in force. One unit of the larger patrol encounters the remnants of the Blue Moon Crew as the game begins and signals for their fellows to join them in engaging their enemy.
