The Scorpion Beastman Captain took the 'stone' from the Angry Beast and examined it from every angle for a long time. Finally, his eyes lit up. "This is..."
He turned and moved closer to the wall, pressing the 'stone' in his hand against it. A moment later, his eyes were gleaming. "Is this the stone the Snow Tiger Tribe uses to build their houses?"
The Angry Beast chuckled and nodded. "It took me a lot of trouble to steal this. The Snow Tiger Tribe guards these stones they make very well, not letting us get near them."
"They make them?"
The Scorpion Beastman Captain looked astonished.
'Aren't all stones gathered? Don't they just gather this kind of stone and polish it?'
The Angry Beast nodded. "I'm sure of it. Once, when I was out gathering stones, I was hiding in the bushes and heard a few Snow Tiger tribesmen walk by. They said that if you want to build a house, you have to go back and make these things called 'bricks' yourself."
