The Blood Claw Priest's deep eyes remained calm as he said faintly, "The purpose of our raids has been achieved. We have made the humans feel pain and fear, forcing them to focus their attention back on us... That is enough."
He paused, lightly tapping the ground with his Beast Bone Staff. "The humans, with their new weapons—especially that Necromancer named Lynch—will surely want to eradicate us completely to eliminate this threat. What we must do next is wait."
"Wait for him to lead his army into the Mist Jungle, and wait for him to step into the hunting ground we've prepared for him..."
A flicker of excitement finally entered the Blood Claw Priest's eyes. "When that time comes, the great Lord of the Hunt, the Forefather of Gnolls, the Vanguard and Guide of the Abyss—Yenogu—will make him pay a price he'll never forget."
