The hunter is sent by the Skeksis to capture you, who has escaped from the castle with vile of gelfling essence, a powerful artifact that is the source of the Skeksis’ power and corruption and the truth of what the skeksis are really like. The hunter tracks you to the forest of Stone-in-the-Wood, where he ambushes you and engages you in a fierce fight.

"I WILL RIP OUT YOU LYING TONGUE!!"
