All great stories!
I just wanted to interject that one of the future Hero Wars Great Events is
when (someone) causes the Mother of Monsters to leave her current pathway
and set out across the Sshorg, spewing monster eggs into the currents as
she goes.
Everyone with a chance to stop, destroy or turn her away are sent out from
Vithela and Genertela. Remember Baron, the monster hunter?
