And how did they attack you when you're at peace with them? Are all Zuma units set to murderous?
Fang Fang has been doing some RPs on the trip down that depicted the daimons as frenzied, hungry, and rampaging from the exertion of the long run all the way down from Corridor of Torment. Something about how they were enraged and ready to kill anything they could find. We got a version of this as the daimons passed through Duil. They've been going non-stop for well over a week. That's a long trip.
I interpret the RP as "We're running on Murderous, get the hell out of our way, or you're going to be sorry."
