Meanwhile, as Asura approached Gaius and Lyndwrym to the far east of his territory, inside the great monster forest, a raging fire burned the wooden and thatch homes of the kobolds.
The kobolds lived in peace, or so they did a few days ago.
Before, the strange goblins invaded from the west. These goblins were armed with high-grade weapons and able to use strange magic to burn the forest and break the kobold elders' barrier.
"Gigigigi!"
"Burn the dogmen!"
"Huhuhu die dogface!"
The goblin's strength was overwhelming. No kobold could stand against them alone. Even the kobold knights and elders, who were once revered for their expertise, were rendered useless.
While the goblins enjoyed their victory atop the hills several hundred metres away.
The small force of Emerald Empire warriors all watched in delight as the monsters they intimidated now started killing their allies of yesterday.
