“Sometimes, there’s nothing worse than a camp full of hunters. They’re all so busy taking down prey animals that the only meat I get is tough and stringy. That’s hardly the kind of thing you want to come home to after a long day on the hunt. Lucky for us, though, there is a source of tender, succulent meat nearby. To the south of the river and the camp live longneck grazers.
They’re a perfect source of meat for our hungry hunters. Bring me back the best cuts of meat and we’ll properly toast our comrades.”

Lore Context
Korg the Cleaver is the expedition’s cook, and his quest text paints a vivid picture of camp life: the hunters are so obsessed with trophy kills that the only meat they bring back is “tough and stringy” from predator species. He needs you to hunt the Longneck Grazers specifically because their meat is tender and suitable for a proper meal.
His completion text is grateful: the shipwreck that stranded the expedition in Sholazar at least spared them from eating nothing but salt beef for the voyage.
Longneck Grazers are giraffes unique to Sholazar Basin, appearing in two color variations: a dark brown pattern resembling a real-world okapi (the giraffe’s closest living relative, native to the Congo rainforest) and a white variation.
Their presence in a tropical jungle within the Arctic, alongside dreadsabers that hunt them just as big cats hunt ungulates on the African savanna, reinforces Sholazar’s design as a titan-engineered ecosystem where predator-prey relationships mirror real-world ecology.

Vikstone's War JournalKorg the Cleaver had the look of a camp cook at wit’s end.
“Sometimes, there’s nothing worse than a camp full of hunters. They’re all so busy taking down prey animals that the only meat I get is tough and stringy.” He gestured south with his cleaver. “Lucky for us, there is a source of tender, succulent meat nearby. To the south of the river live longneck grazers. Perfect source of meat for our hungry hunters. Bring me back the best cuts and we’ll properly toast our comrades.”
Found them exactly where he said. Strange creatures, like giraffes but shorter, their long necks swaying above the jungle floor. Gentle things. I made the work quick and clean.
“Now that’s a meal!” Korg’s face lit up when I returned with the cuts. “If anything good came of the shipwreck, it’s got to be that we’ve been spared eating nothing but salt beef for the next month!”
That night, the smell of fresh meat cooking drew hunters from their tents. Simple pleasures, the kind that remind you why camps matter.
The camp was fed and the hunters were happy, and someone at Nesingwary’s fire had an idea involving fruit and fermentation in Some Make Lemonade, Some Make Liquor
