maybe it was clacking it's teeth together? doesn't explain the screech though. It never made sense to me that skeletons, lacking any kind of voicebox, would be able to shriek or make sounds like that, but it's been a staple for ages. Also, wow, we finally get to meet the dwarves! I hope he gives them a dressing down they deserve, for having technically been greater participants in the wiping out of mankind than the fiends, AND informs them that the humans didn't intend to murder suicide on a mass scale, but were trying to escape, and they, along with the people that disappeared with them, might still be around, in limbo or something.

I wonder what kind of Dwarves we'll see, will they be Tolkien or will they be something unexpected.

Nick

Oh so now we get to meet the dwarves, this is getting more and more interesting

Oh my god incredible chapter I can't wait for the next one this cliffhanger is a crime

More like it never made sense for any monster or boss to screech right before you're about to start a fight. Creatures scream because they're trying to scare you off, if they're resolved to fight they wouldn't waste their energy doing something like that.

The cliffhangers of this series is criminal in general. It's the only Patreon book I keep being pulled back into even though I could've been patient in Royalroad.

So that's what the dwarves we're doing by going into lockdown. They were making a smokescreen to cover their discovery of a human. Which begs the questions of what are the intentions of the few "human friendly" dwarves now, and how the hell did they find out? Did one of the gods tell them? Do they have scrying or other magic items that tell them whether there are humans or not? Looking forward to this Thursday!

I find it hilarious that Rob says he wouldn't last a week before punching a papparazzi while Jason is *already* struggling with that aspect of being a Hero (as opposed to being "Lord Blightkiller") . DWARVES, time for some godamn World Lore, hell yeah babyyyyyy, give me fantasy world history woohoo

The purpose of a monster is to spread fear, in the case of Japanese yokai, they literally live off fear. It's clearly for intimidation purposes, and fear is a very useful tool in battles. If a monster scares you enough to retreat, it's no longer a battle, but a hunt, and monsters like to hunt prey.

Or the Seneschal told them, or perhaps that Elven Spy did, the Seneschal did have him investigate I think? Or considering their tech, they spotted them with drones or even satellites. Many options.

This changes everything...

Is Vul'to gaining a level a misprint or am I missing something?

kamikazepotato

No, he gained a Level thanks to Sharing Hand, which copies a portion of all gained EXP to every Party member as long as Orn'tol is in the Party. Participating in the actual combat isn't even necessary.

Captain Nuclear

Ohhhhhhhh dwarves! I'm so excited Rob, Kevin, Meyneth.. Oh my god a dwarf party member *please.*

CMDR Dantae

But we aren't certain Vul'to is still alive, or even Vul'to anymore, and his status is corrupted, so can he even level up as he is right now?

I think you messed up when editing this. Check the beginning of the chapter. Looks like there is something missing.

kamikazepotato

Huh, no idea how that happened. It was normal when it was first posted. Fixed it, thanks for the heads-up.
