Who am I kidding?

This is LOQUE BLOG now.

I found him. I found him! I was going to finish up a quest and then do one more round, and I happened to be in the spawn west of Nesingwary's camp, and he just appeared right in front of me!

So I quickly feigned death and abandoned my Gorilla (way better than Rhino, I may tame one for real someday), then ran over, laid a frost trap, and started the tame.

And then a longneck grazer wandered into my trap, and Loque pounced me. And since FD was on cooldown ... I panicked, broke the tame and died.

I ran back as fast as I could, praying that no one had seen him. I was literally shaking. And then I got back, and there he was! And I started to bandage — and he pounced right into another hunter's freezing trap.

I thought I would be more upset, but after three days of hunting, I'm just glad I finally saw him! Alive, and with my own eyes, not via a guildie. I was beginning to think I never would. And with two close calls in three days, I'm hoping this means that I will get him for myself eventually.

And this hunter and I had been patrolling his spawns all morning and we kept running into each other and chatted, so I knew he had stumbled on him as he was being tamed four times, and seen his corpse twice. So I was really excited for him to finally have nabbed him! If he could get him after weeks of searching and so many close calls, I can hope for my own Loque someday soon. I cheered him, saluted him, then headed back to Nesingwary to log and take my real cat for a walk.

Maybe tomorrow will be the day.
