Blood Claw Chief Hog immediately came to Pestilence Town upon being summoned.
However, his prompt arrival clearly indicated that Hog now possessed a keen "political sense," meaning he must have already set out from Smugglers' Forest and anticipated a summons from Murphy following the war.
Evidently, Hog had no doubt about the Player Corps' victory.
This scrawny member of the Wolf People must be one of the NPCs on this land who had the utmost confidence in the Otherworldly Warriors.
When summoned, Hog came wearing a long hood to cover his figure.
However, this was rather like hiding one's ears whilst stealing a bell.
After all, every player now recognized him; familiar ones warmly greeted him along the path, and unfamiliar new players deliberately approached to speak some irrelevant words, trying to garner favor with Chief Hog.
