Rendwing. That’s the name I’ve been hearing over and over in the village markets. Mostly in whispers and hushed tones, but not out of fear or disdain. If anything, the locals speak of this creature with a kind of begrudging reverence. He’s a large pale lasirus that started off as a bully committing the usual antics of stealing food and being a nuisance, but something happened that changed his attitude.

One day, when he was busy trying to nab the last coconuts from a beleaguered vendor, he was confronted by a pack of hungry manchus who had the same idea. A pretty nasty scuffle ensued, leaving poor Rendwing with a face full of scars and tattered wings. He crawled off into the jungle and the locals thought that would be the last they saw of him. With their competition out of the way, the manchu pack became more emboldened and started raiding more often.

Of course, if Rendwing’s story ended there, then you and I wouldn’t be out here, so you can probably guess what happened next. Locals are doing what they can, fighting off thieving manchus, locking up fruits and stuff, and then this big shadow glides over the village. There’s a barely audible “whoosh” as the shadow swoops down, grabs a manchu by the tail and then chucks the critter into the sea. The rest of the pack starts howling and hollering, another big brawl ensues and, let me tell you, Rendwing does not lose this time. Apparently, no manchu pack has been seen near the market since that day, they’re all way too afraid to come back.

Unfortunately, there’s no Red Rreign feel-good ending here, as Rendwing does still come to nab what he wants. The locals are just a little less annoyed by it. So! Something to keep in mind before we confront this beast: He was left completely blind by the initial scuffle, but his hearing is extremely acute. Which is great, because it means I’ve spent all this time running around in the jungle with a rustling pile of leaves on my head for no reason. Anyway, when you feel you’re ready, take a look at this Omen Islands Obscured Caverns Legendary Track from the Cash Shop and let’s track him down!
