Smallest Tepui Hunt?

Kerrah sent the following report to TMN:

Hello Para,

Kerrah here, sending you some images from our recent Tepui adventure. This was quite possibly the smallest group to ever attempt the Tepui of Metzetli: myself, Daimoth, Ogant, Thorgal, Lorikeet, and Kisa. As you can see, we knew this was quite unusual.

For Thorgal and Ogant, this was their first venture into the deepest portion of Metzetli Island, and they had never seen most of the creatures. They were most impressed by the Sezuma Yorillas, a.k.a. "Earthquake Monkeys."

Unfortunately, I failed to skin the fur from this impressive silverback;

I ran from fear of Daimoth's disapproval of this failure.

After a lengthy series of lures of the snell due south of us, and some adept bricking/killing/healing maneuvers,

we decided to call it a successful hunt and leave via the Ethereal Plane. As many of you may know, however, the Ethereal Plane is rather treacherous as well nowadays. Upon exiting through to Portal Island, Ogant and Thorgal promptly fell, which was our first warning that trouble was brewing. We had further warning from Lorikeet, who had since heard of what plentiful creatures were ready to ambush us on the isle.

Of course, stubborn fighters that we are, we paid more heed to our apparent invincibility than Lorikeet's timely warning, and plowed right into the main portion of Portal Island, to find, wow, a whole bunch of critters!

This prompted Kisa to remind us of Lorikeet's warning.

Thanks to Ogant's and Thorgal's expert "bricking," Lorikeet's and Kisa's expert healing, Daimoth's and my killing prowess, and a healthy portion of patience, we were finally able to escape from the ethereal trap and return home safely and without departing. All in all a great hunt!
