Mission:
“Yes your Mightiness” The last thing Kalent the Reaper said to the great Emperor Ublaz before leaving the palace. Once back in the Taverns Kalent’s mind began to race. How would he be able to stop their timber stock from disappearing in the night? He turned to a searat “You their, gather a score of seabeasts including yerself and bring them back here”. The searat who’s name was Dingy replied drunkenly “*HIC* and why should I do dat ay? What’s init fer me?? *HIC* ”. Kalent whirled on him drawing his scimitar holding it firmly to the rat’s fat belly. “You’ll do what I say or I’ll gut ya! Now go get out of my sight and don’t come back until you’ve gather them seabeasts!”.

Two Hours later Dingy had found a total of 22 willing vermin to do Kalent’s bidding. Kalent paced up and down the ranks staring each and every one of them in the eye long and hard driving their nerves of the wall. With a bellow he addressed them “RIGHT! Now I’ve brought you here today so we may stop the dirty scum who pinchin’ our timber stocks. I want ten of you to watch the timber inside the palace walls, another ten to watch the ships. And you last two…. You will come with me; we’ll patrol the entire island all night if we have to. GOT IT!? They all shot their chests out and hands up in a salute “YESSIR!”. One of the “volunteers” whined “But yer not an officer why should we takes orders from yoo ay?”. With a swift upward thrust Kalent cut the Stoat if half, wheeling on the other seabeast “Anybody wanna try me???!”. They stayed silent, “Right, our operation starts at dusk. Meet back here. Any beast who doesn’t show up… well I’ll hunt them down and make them wish you'd never been born!

That night the two guards, who were watching the timber stock, saw three larges form approach it. On lit a candle. The to guards saw that they were all BADGERS! Large badgers… One of the guards turned to his partner “Jeez Mangy what ave we got are selves into now??” Mangy replied, “I dunno, but we got to take action to stop or our ship we’ll never sail again…” Just then Kalent and his two other followers came on their walk-around patrol. Seeing the badgers start to load the timber Kalent Dove after them. Whipping his poison coated tail spike that belonged to his great grandfather Cluny the Scourge. The tail spike caught one of the badgers in the snout; he dropped to his knees trying to staunch the blood flow. The other two came charging after Kalent, he grabbed the spear the badger had dropped when his nose was slashed. Kalent could barely lift it but he was able to bring up to a 45-degree angle, just as the badger came down on him and the pole. The badger was impaled and the other two weren’t too happy about that, one of the sentries from the ramparts jumped on the lead badger stabbing and slashing viscously at his head and neck until that badger as fell to. The third went into a rage of screaming and roaring fits. The blood rose in its eyes as he whirled on Kalent’s and his followers. Crushing smashing and stabbing the badger made his way through the seabeasts taking out at least fifteen of them before it finally collapsed exhausted. Kalent stabbed and whipped the badger until it no longer breathed. Kalent sighed in relief “Huh. Well first thing tomorrow I’ll go see Emperor Ublaz and tell him there’ll be now more thief’s about to steal his timber stock”.
