Peace is slowly returning to Lumin Meadows. The sun lazily begins to break through the clouds, illuminating the gradually regrowing Lumin Blooms. If one were to stop here for a moment and forget the events of the recent past, this place could easily be taken for a wonderful, peaceful idyll.

A group of daredevils gathers to try and capture a live specimen of the Leshy Fiends. No traces of their activity have been found in the Lumin Meadows, so you must venture into the vicinity of the Whispering Forest. But are you ready for what you might encounter there?

✧ A large group of you has gathered... Perhaps even too large to do this completely quietly. But then again... Since we have the capability, why not try to capture two Leshy Fiends instead of just one?
✧ Lumin Meadows no longer betrays any presence of the Leshy Fiends, so you head toward the area where the meadow gradually blends into a dense forest. It was precisely there that the Leshy was spotted, so there is a chance his army might be patrolling the vicinity.
✧ Without venturing deep, you slowly skirt the edges of the forest, and that is when you spot a group of Leshy Fiends that apparently hasn't noticed you yet. You watch them for a moment and realize they are behaving... unnaturally. They stand in place almost completely motionless, as if they were alive but 'disconnected' – their minds entirely elsewhere.
✧ You wait a while longer, but nothing changes in their behavior. There is no point in idling around and waiting for dusk to fall, so you decide to act. To maximize the chances of a surprise attack, you split into three groups. There are only 5 Leshy Fiends, so you significantly outnumber them - especially since the goal is to capture them, not to engage in open combat.
✧ You position your Alchemites, check if everyone is ready... and on signal, you send them all at once toward the creatures. They all rush in evenly from three sides, leaving only a single escape route leading deep into the forest. However, the Leshy Fiends... they do not react at all. They don't even look your way, continuing to stand in almost complete motionlessness.
✧ Once your Alchemites are within paw's reach of them, you stop them in their tracks. From this distance, you can't see what is happening at all, so slowly, ensuring that it is safe, you step closer to assess the situation. You look closely at the motionless creatures – their magic seems incredibly weak, comparable to very shallow breaths. It appears to have been reduced to a bare minimum, just enough to keep these units alive.
✧ Could the last attack have cost the Leshy so much energy to control such a massive army? If so, he clearly hasn't regained his strength yet, seeing that he restricted control to an absolute minimum. None of you expected things to turn out this way - that the crazy idea of catching Leshy Fiends would turn out to be practically trivial. Yet, it seems that an army without its master's presence is nothing but an empty vessel, completely devoid of its own consciousness.
✧ Enough looking, you decide to act. Gently and cautiously, you try to touch one of the Leshy Fiends. No one is crazy enough to do it with their paw or hand, so you start with a stick - it digs slightly into the leafy mane, but the creature doesn't react at all, completely rigid. You decide to carefully move it into the special cages created in the Creation Lab, which were designed to ensure safe transport back to the city.
✧ Everything goes smoothly with the first and second one. However, upon being touched, the third one lets out a hollow sigh, and the magic evaporates from it, scattering the stones, branches, and other organic materials it was born from all around. In terror, you look first at each other and then at the remaining Leshy Fiends, but they continue to stand motionless, showing no reaction whatsoever to what just happened to their kin. The magic within it must have simply been too weak to hold everything together.
✧ You focus on safely moving the second-to-last Leshy Fiend when suddenly, the furthest one - the very last of them - begins to tilt its head in your direction. The Alchemites instantly step into a defensive stance, but in the blink of an eye, the creature bolts and flees deep into the forest. Charging after it would be foolish - the Whispering Forest is still far too dangerous a place to venture into. Even if the Leshy is weakened enough that he cannot keep his entire army in check, he surely still has enough strength for direct combat.
✧ Slowly, you make your way toward the city, trying your best not to damage your precious cargo. Once you are close to the city, one of the Leshy Fiends - much like the one in the forest - twists its head strangely, letting out a loud hiss. Then, its energy evaporates, quickly returning toward the forest in the form of a glowing red orb, while the materials it was created from fall apart under your feet. You are terrified by what is happening. You are left with barely 2 out of the 5 creatures, which seem petrified on one hand, yet highly unstable and ready to collapse at any moment on the other. Not knowing how much time you have left, you run as fast as you can toward the city, hoping that these remnants of the Leshy's magic within them will be enough to conduct any kind of research.
✧ The Leshy Fiends are handed over to the researchers at the Creation Lab. The next part of the story will continue in the event thread – Leshy, Dread of the Woods.─── ⋆⋅✧⋅⋆ ───
