I can say that I have fought every monster in the main seires except for yama and ama, which means I have fought shen, it never attacked you, it just went straight for the wall.

And I never said that Lao could only move when running away from Fatalis, the fact is, IT WAS RUNNING AWAY FROM FATALIS in MHFU, and nothing can change that, that's why it didn't care about hunters. In the new game, an agressive Lao could be fought in the fortress, but it's unlikely, more likely is that we'll get a Lao in its natural habitat; rocky mountains, when it doesn't have fatalis on its mind, that's what I meant by the shen example, how the fight changes depending on where you fight it.
