For many, there seemed to be little hope for the world returning to what it once was. Everything seemed quiet, for those who even dared to venture too far into the wilderness found little. But now, it seems, with the Harvester gone, the old wildlife has begun to return anew. It is a slow process and many local species have gone extinct, but the area at the cave entrance near Mockingbay has also begun to heal, and as a result infection seems to spread significantly slower than previously. Scouts do still see glimpses of dark creatures and monsters but they seem less focused on the animals, and more focused on the human populace.
