	First encountered in Uasa, we are confident this massive creature of stone is another Primeval, and that it is hunting those that broke open its prison. We had seen reports of individuals across Tirneach being turned to stone, and were able to plot a route that implies this creature is slowly following the Band. In combat it was able to slowly petrify Band members, though we were fortunate that the Band was able to disengage without any casualties. We discovered some connection between a local Ritual Circle and the ~~Statue~~, and by severing that we believe we caused the Primeval to discorporate for a time, though based on our experience with the other Primevals it will undoubtedly return and take up the hunt anew.

 Malacht is a creature that resembles a [[Leasiar]], but we believe is something much more unnatural. Originally trapped in a magical prison constructed in the distant past but most recently modified by servants of the ruling council of [[Draíod]], The Saoi, Malacht was unfortunately released by [[The Band]]. An interrogation found that they had been trapped for a significant amount of time, likely centuries, and magic showed them to be [[Undead]], though they were as coherent and rational as any living mortal. When they became aggressive their merest touch proved devastating to mortals, and when the sky contained neither sun nor stars they simply turned into mist and vanished.
-Recent reports have mentioned a figure matching Malacht’s description attending the most exclusive parties in [[Siabhal]], even those of rivals who would wish little to do with the friends of their enemies. As the creature’s name implies some connection to the greatest of the [[Hundred Heroes]], their leader Finian, it seems it has some connection to the Heart of the Realms.
+Malacht travelled to [[Siabhal]] and began to insinuate herself into the [[Ruby Court]], relying on their natural charm and excessive wealth of unknown provenance to make significant inroads into joining The Carmine Circle, the most powerful and influential of the Ruby Courts. Fortunately the Band managed to stymie their plans, convincing the Ruby Courtiers that aligning themselves with this stranger with secret agendas and unknown allies would be politically risky, and they voted not to add the family to the Courts. They angrily departed the region, and their current whereabouts is unknown.

=Tiernan McUltan=
''Insane Peaceslayer''

Known as Tiernan The Mad, he leads a band of Peaceslayers, those that have killed a [[Peacesworn]]. He has convinced dozens of Peaceslayers to follow him with the promise that he can break the curse upon their souls that reveals their crimes to any that see them.

So far his method to break this curse appears to be through murdering [[Cinnire]], and it has proven entirely unsuccessful. His band is also responsible for the slaughter of entire villages in [[Bruid]]- there is no reason to believe he has any intention beyond death and chaos, and it is likely he is simply manipulating his followers by promising redemption.

We managed to capture one of his followers in Bruid, and while they seemed to genuinely believe in Tiernan and wanted to get rid of their Slayer’s Mark, they were oddly unquestioning of Tiernan’s own actions and motives.

Those with information on Tiernan and his cultists, or are interested in looking into them, can contact [[the Reconnaissance Office]], [[Rígan Diavall]] or [[Sorrel Airiúgladh]].

=Bush Monster=
''Relentless Hunter''

A creature of unknown origin and composition, though theorised to be a [[Primeval]]. The creature first appeared in [[Bruid]], and is devastatingly powerful, capable of incapacitating multiple members of the Band at once with powerful magics, such as Sleep. It seems to focus on a specific target, considering all others in its way to be little more than a hindrance to be bypassed, though that does not reduce the threat it represents to those that face it- we lost one of our number, [[Smeagol_"Seagull"_Buttonwood|Smeagol]], to the creature in [[Draíod]], as he alone was able to resist its magicks and eventually fell to its strikes.

Those with any insight into the Bush Monster or who wish to try discover more about it can contact [[the Reconnaissance Office]].
