Black tings wit purple eyes dat drop round shinies

[Ned Lud 1260]

Warboss Lud'Gorkil staggers back from the hunt, tossing the severed head of a strange creature into the sand. His blade drips with fresh blood and his eyes twinkle with curious ferocity over a handful of shiny round objects which he swirls in his palm. Upon the noticeboard in Krugmar, he stakes a sheet of leather which bears an announcement, crudely written in what looks to be a mixture of squid ink, bone meal and blood.

Me were out klomping tonight when me stumble across da strangest ting me ever seen in dese wilds. It were a tall, black ting wit purple eye and it have purple smoke floating off of it. It were strong, but not too strong. Me stuck it wit da pointy end of sword and flatted it, den me cut off it head and bring it here and toss it in sand over der. When it were flatted it drop a round shinies, but dey not for eating, dey for looking through. Me killed a few more of dese strange black tings on da way back and getted more shinies. Never seen dem before but dey seem to be all over wilderness.

Anyone else be seen dese tings? What are dey and what dey be doing here? Dey not talk much, me not trust dem.

*Ben, a human who surprisingly travels to Krugmar often notices the note and puts up his own. It reads:

"Strange things indeed. I saw some in Oren, they seem peaceful until you look them in the eyes. If you do that they chase you wherever you go, trying to kill you for the rest of there lives. They seem to be vulnerable to water. The pearls they drop allow some mages to see the future and others the past. I think they are the servants of The Shadow. "*((The Shadow is a God that my character believes in))

The shinies are good for shaman things along wit' druid things, I think, Ned. Ye should maybeh see if Nel'thok wants 'em? I know Petyr used one to help me out...

But I don't think normal peoples can use 'em for anything.

*Ventures into Krugmar to find Mogroka for a conversation, but notices said note on leather and chuckles, taking out a papyrus parchment and a mixture of squid ink and egg to thicken the concoction and inserts it next to the leather notice with writing*

Aye, is that so, you have these intriguing stones and it sounds like you gathered them the same method as I, these seeing stones seem to be solid as a rock. I have reason to believe these shinies as you describe are something they associate with their species for if you expose the sight of these stones, they feel more threatened of the one beholding such things and do not see reason to strike as quick as they would attempt to if you are at distance from these creatures.
