The minotaurs, relentless in their pursuit of power, continued to attack other dungeons, seeking to grow even stronger. Their expansion seemed unimpeded, as they appeared to have the luxury of time and resources to pursue such challenges. This was largely because the remaining survivors in the area were too few in number to be of any significant resistance or pose a real threat to their plans.
Despite the survivors' best efforts to fortify their positions and prepare for the inevitable confrontations, their dwindling numbers made it increasingly difficult to keep pace with the minotaurs' escalating power. Each skirmish and dungeon raid only served to further tip the balance in favor of the minotaurs, underscoring the desperate need for a more effective strategy to counter their growing strength.
