>>5989890Krantagarh paces in the underbrush of the forest; his excitement builds. Finally, the Four have begun to bless his actions - his massive paw grips his axe in anticipation. He had ordered his minotaurs home to the Beastlands - so bloodied were they by the conflict against the wolf-men. But his minor horde of Gors, Centigors and Ungors were undaunted by their march through the narrow passes of the mountains, and they have finally reached the fat lands of the Kislevites below.
Beyond the forest's edge, scattered towns and villages are dotted alongside a deep river - Krantagarh cares not for the name of this piddling thing, nor for the names of the human towns that lie there. His heavy hooves are ready for trampling - to pulverize human bone against cobblestone, and his axe has begun to whisper darkly to him once more. Thick strands of saliva burst from his mouth - Krantagarh hungers.
The unit of Gors he had attached himself to eye each other nervously - the bullgor has been known to feast upon lesser Ungors, but has Krantigarh developed a taste for Gors as well? They don't know...
Krantigarh, peering at the closest human town to the northwest, decides to dispense with clever tactics - he will simply have his Gors and Centigors overwhelm the town with bodies and hack them apart. As for the Ungors - they will be little use in this fight. Snorting, he orders them to proceed southwest, in the hopes of installing them as a scouting party in a lightly-forested patch of earth in that direction.
Loot is needed - debts are owed to both Magor and Huffud, and Krantigarh does not like the feeling of indebtedness. And there is one more lord to whom he owes a favor - the conniving sorcerer. It is not enough to win his battles - he must build his strength while he does so as well, if he is to get revenge. He snorts again - enough contemplation!
Krantigarh bellows in rage, raising his axe, and begins to lope with a heavy stride out of the forests and onto the plains! Let the humans fight! Let their flesh feed his troops! Let the Four bless him with victory!
