"Village chief! An Ogre from the neighboring village had come! They said that they needed help to defend their village from the human's siege!" An ogre suddenly shouted from outside the village chief's house.
It took Gruron, Imiza, and the two ogre village elders a few seconds to even register what the messenger had said while the moment the messenger said the word 'human', Matthew and the three kobolds had already stood up from their chair and looked at each other in understanding.
Before Gruron was able to tell the messenger to come in and explain more about what message he had just delivered, Matthew beat the messenger to the punch and asked,
"Gruron, do you care about the other ogre village? Are you on good terms with the other ogre villages?"
