Koyer sent the following report to TMN:

I took a snapshot of the rat-pack munching on Geotzou after some real fighters (read: not me) showed up to help with a rare midday Panther/Cougar/Vermine/Rat/Orga swarm on Kitty Beach. Amazed to see some of the upper circle fighters falling to rats. Merlisk (behind me in attached pic, I think) appeared to be the lead Thoom on the scene, but I've been away for so long, I don't remember how the others stand in terms of experience and healing ability.
