The Tyrant
event  Island ·  Events (all zones)
You reach the shore of an island and find a few exhausted beavers. They seem to be hastily building some kind of shelter from the cold. In the center of the island you see a large bear who is in charge of the construction, forcing the beavers to overwork themselves to build the shelter for him. If you want to continue, you will have no choice but to cross through the center and confront the bear along with some beavers protecting him. How do you want to proceed?
