We start heading into town to find an apothecary/pharmacist. We get told that we are best looking for Cato, who lives in a house by the lake but often goes on wanders, and has not been seen for a few days. As we walk by the lake, we meet somebody who tells us Cato has been missing and has potentially been following rumours of a creature (a larger meaner boar with a taste for flesh). We also get a physical description of Cato - ugly human with a funny mushroom hat. When we get to Cato's house, we find smoke coming out the chimney and persuade Cato to let us in, though they are clearly high. Ronan tries a golaberry which tastes delicious apparently. Cato tells us about a book that nobody else has? The book has details on various large creatures, including one called Dagamaw - these align with the rumours of a large creature? Cato doesn't let Dewey take notes from the book, saying that some creatures are best left unfound. Cato says that if Dagamaw isn't home, that means something worse than Dagamaw has moved into Dagamaw's territory which would cause problems. Dagamaw is big and fast (but not agile, can't turn quickly) with massive tusks and sprints across plains. It is native to the mountain range to the east where it lives in mix of brushland and tunnels. We decide to kill Dagamaw?
Cato had previously been approached a couple of years ago helping to about producing Second Coming but chose not to get involved, though they aren't sure if their research on plants was potentially stolen.
