The Hoil Bees arrived once every few days, attacking during the night when the village was the least defensive, kidnapping both people and cattle. And those that tried to resist them were killed in the process.

The villagers had been living in fear, requesting their lord to take action. Finally, their requests were answered as the lord sent a Horned Human to take care of the Hoil Bees.
