"Boat-Using leader! Round the bend ahead by the river and you'll find that abandoned settlement. The altar you're looking for is inside the settlement!"
"That settlement is a prime spot, flat and open, with water nearby and barnyard grass for harvesting. I just heard from the Fish-Skin users that the tribe has changed over there... Be cautious! Any tribe that can hold this place is not easy to deal with..."
The Nivkh Chief from the Dog-Using tribe squatted at the bow of the ship, mumbling while chewing on some dried matsutake mushrooms, a local specialty from the forest; tasty and plentiful, they can fool the stomach once consumed. But one needs experience not to gather the poisonous ones. With the physique of the Forest tribes, normal poisonous mushrooms have little effect; typically, they just vomit, sleep it off and are fine.
