Instead of breeding, Manling Kyle had adopted a full litter of new minions. And already they proved useful. “Master Sen, Master Sen!” Yellow, the kobold with the best nose, pointed a claw at a bush, the dragon smelling a Scorcher manling hiding there. “I found another!” Sen let out a roar, raising the giant axe Ogron the one-eyed ogre had kindly given him… Or rather, struggling, as he couldn’t keep the axe properly aligned even while wielding it with all his clawed fingers. How did the manlings do it? Like a rabbit, the manling ran out of the bushes, only for Black, the biggest of the new recruits, to chase after him with a spear. Sen followed, causing trees to fall as he moved through the woods; he constantly struggled against the urge to run back on all four, as a good dragon should.
