IRENE: TREEHEAD WOODFIST
Irene and Aliza lead Treehead Woodfist's pack back to the corral I had alluded to earlier with an incredibly subtle use of foreshadowing. With all the corners, fences, and walls in the area, it was easy to break up the pack.

Then, our heroines killed the minions using a simple tactic. They'd get a minion on one side of a fence and themselves on the other. Aliza would shoot over the fence while Irene punched through the fence. Of course, if Irene was close enough to punch the minion, the minion was close enough to punch Irene back. But that was OK, because all Irene had to do was step back a couple of steps, quaff a healing potion, let her life ball refill, and rejoin the fray. Dean minion. All of the minions fell this way.
Then it was Treehead Woodfist's turn.

"Um, aren't you going to get in on this?" asked Aliza.
"Nah," replied Irene. "I chipped a nail while I was punching that last minion. I need to file it down. Besides, it looks like you've got everything under control."

In short order, Aliza took Treehead down. (In truth, I saw that I had gotten Aliza to stand in a perfect spot -- close to Treehead and yet far away from fence posts, which would block her arrows. I didn't want to move Irene for fear that Aliza would also move).

With Treehead's pack eliminated, Irene and Aliza casually walked over to the Tree of Inifuss and grabbed the scroll. Then, since they had already explored most of the Dark Wood by that point, they figured they might as well finish the clear.
Once they were confident that the Dark Wood had been cleared, they returned to the Rogue Camp and got an astonished Akara to translate the Scroll of Inifuss for them. It was time to return to and finally deal with the Stony Field.
UP NEXT: The Stony Field
