"It asked me to deliver its message and its regrets to the person it trusted most, which is you, Sir Tear Flesh," Murphy said.
"Trust... ha, I never knew that word could come out of that fool Kenbort's mouth."
The old jackal wolfman clearly didn't take Hog's words at face value so easily, giving the sly-eyed, skinny jackal tribe chief a thorough once-over. After a few seconds, it asked:
"You say you were Kenbort's confidant? Where is the evidence?"
Hog's heart tightened. He was about to come up with some lies when he heard Murphy suggest:
"Kenbort had two daggers and a bone ritual offering, made from the remains of the bloodthirsty hyena hound he raised since it was young; it was this very jackal warlock who crafted those items for him.
Kenbort's rise to the position of military governor in the Bonebite Clan is also tied to your secret support, Sir Tear Flesh!
