Mythically, Uralda just left with the cows. Like all good males, the bulls follow after.

And, since we are cattle here, I sang them a maternal lullabye. But that is a chancy solution, I admit.
Running away is fun. You trip over some other, interesting bits of Heroquests. Gustbran is particularly neat. Its a pity you can't get him to forge the GodBone for you. Currently, I've never been able to get him to make something for me.... Perhaps I should get an Issaries lost on in the afterlife...
