Ackster's arbitrary friendly fire and seemingly self-destructive behavior caused a lull in the battle as Trana stopped fighting for her life, and Mazar stopped trying to kill her.
Was this his goal? Was he trying to give Trana a moment's respite by stunning and shocking Mazar into halting his actions?
"TELL ME!"
No, that wasn't it. Why would Ackster yell at Trana like that if that were the case? It would just bring Mazar out of his stupor quicker, which it did.
Mazar raised an eyebrow as he looked at Ackster. But he dismissed any intentions of asking the human what he was doing since he could only imagine the string of curses and insults that would fly his way. Instead, he raised a foreleg to smash Ackster into a nearby mountain.
"Tell me where the dragons' accumulated information and secrets are!"
Ackster pushed the broken trident deeper.
"If you don't, I will kill you!"
'Ah.'
