Description

The Au Ra's flavor of Hannish once used the word “yilan” to mean “snake,” though I fear that fails to capture the─frankly repulsive─image of what the Faculty of Medicine has requested you hunt down.
According to reports from the local naturalists, the creature emits aether from its photophores that crushes its prey into a more diminutive form, the better to swallow it whole. Not pleasant, oh no.
Nor is it technically a serpent. Rather, 'tis a quadrupedal scalekin that is equally dangerous on land and in water─though at least it's not subtle.

Lore

The traditional language of Thavnair's Au Ra once used the word "yilan" to mean "snake," though this particular creature is more of a "scaly quadrupedal monstrosity" as far as the common tongue is concerned. Equally dangerous in water and on land, Yilan emits aether from its photophores to crush its prey into a diminutive form better for swallowing whole—which goes a long way toward explaining why the Faculty of Medicine has asked that it be indisputably dead upon delivery.
