A very large elk.

Appearances

An absolutely massive elk. You'd heard stories about how big they are, but seeing it in person still shocks you. These things are large enough to eat entire branches off the large forest pines, and this one does just that as it plods out from around a particularly thick copse. The icy blue glow of its antlers bathes your entire hunting party in soft light.

You can only just make it out through the foliage, but there's a titan of an elk grazing in a clearing up ahead. The thing's taller at the shoulders than the tips of Hana's ears, and the rack of horns on that bastard's so broad the fox could probably lay herself out across them like a bench.

Interactions

Valkyrie Hunt

---

Having completed the events of Shadows Over the Sun, the Champion can run into the Hunting with valkyries encounter in any zone of the Frostwood or Old Forest. Upon encountering them, the leading valkyrie will invite the Champion to join them on their hunt. With that, the Champion has the option to:

Option	Tooltip	Result
Hunt	Join the hunt. You know there's always someone who sticks around afterwards.	Begins the hunt for a Cave Bear or Frost Elk
Leave	You aren't up for a hunt right now.	Ends the encounter

Victory against the frost elk will have one of the valkyries offer a small prayer to send the animal's spirit to rest, before they harvest and store the corpse in wax-cloth. With the hunt successful, a valkyrie will proposition the Champion for some post-hunt sex.

If defeated by the frost elk, the entire party safely flee, and one of the valkyries comment that sometimes hunts can go bad and there's nothing else they can do but nurse their wounds and be more prepared. They hope that this defeat does not dissuade them from joining in the next time. If present, Arona and Etheryn will make commentary on the defeat.

Hana Hunt

---

One of the four possible hunts the Champion can encounter with Hana is hunting a frost elk. Hana spots a titan of an elk, commenting that they can do some real damage to folks if they get mad, and they make for great eating.

Option	Requirement	Tooltip	Result
Fight	-	This hunt is getting unbearable! Bring it to an end!	Starts combat
Back Off	-	You shouldn't pick a fight with this majestic monster. Let him go in peace.	Ends the hunt

Victory against the frost elk will have Hana thank Velun for the wildland's bounty, and swears that they do not take more than what is needed for hearth and home. With the successful hunt, they bring the beast back to Hana's place where she prepares some Trail Rations for the Champion, commenting that while she's got to start salting the steaks and making sausages, there's plenty more and she'll be happy to make dinner for them any time.

Before things can get worse, Hana grabs the Champion and they successfully flee. After resting for a few minutes, the party turn back to camp/home.
