"I don't blame them. Any creature that sides with those murderers should be purged from the forest," the bull said coolly and signaled for the reptile to dive.

She swung the reptile around and into the rocky side of the cave, its head connecting with a sickening crack.

"He's trying to rile you, Ravenwing. Calm down," Rhett panted. "Although, I won't complain if you take out your anger on another monster."
