"The lizard's tailbone is so delicious."
Black Servant Sen flailed his claws and shouted:
"The giant's leader is as tall as ten Black Servant Sens! He holds a spear that calls upon wind and snow! The old master said it's a Divine Artifact called something 'ya', stolen from a group of dwarfs! Squeak squeak, the old master forbade us from eavesdropping, but Black Servant Sen secretly overheard...
They plan to take that spear to a faraway place...
to open a grand treasure!"
"Master, he's talking about the Frost dwarves' Holy Relic Winter's Strike!"
Maxim immediately realized and said seriously:
"The previous leader of the Frost dwarves, Ratir, was ambushed and killed by the West Sacha Barbarians, and that relic was lost. It seems there's some twilight meddling behind this affair, as they drove the Ratman to dig into the Land of Chaos, further north of the Great Wilderness, and it appears the Barbarians, who stole the relic, are somewhere in the Dark Mountain Range now.
