(creature LTC) (NJO) Korynn: lesson II: knowledge

Lynus walked in silence, watching the muddy ground intently, trying to find the Breeps tracks. Korynn wandered behind him, muttering something. When Lynus asked him for help with the Breep, he expected many things, like milking them (like a bantha) or shearing their wool. Tracking down runaways, however, was definitely not on the list.
