"They are back... with a human!"
The tallest Dreg'nar hissed, face contorting into a displeased grimace.
"Yes, we are. Today, we'll overthrow your rule."
Picket's voice resounded, inspiring his rebellious friends with its newfound charisma and righteous tone.
"We'll be slaves no more. No, we'll be the masters!"
The five tier-four leaders frowned at the remark, wondering if the lowly digger went crazy after inhaling too much dust.
Meanwhile, Adam's brows creased, and his eyes hardened.
'He wants to replace them? He won't change the slave system after rising to power?'
The question struck him like a sneak blow to his guts. The realisation left a bitter aftertaste in his mouth. He really believed Picket would make life better for his brethren after his passionate pleadings. It was more so considering he had been the humblest worker of them all, placed the furthest from the safety of their mining field.
