Goblin Hound

"Just say the word, and they will be mine again," Kleu growled softly.

"No, not yet," Eirayna shook her head. "The Kurach have not fallen so far as to be returned to your shadows."

"I should think not as well," Kyros snorted. "The Sylvans in my neck of the woods have behaved well for the past thousand years. I would not want to see them punished because the Eor guardians couldn't keep their Kurach in line."

"There may be more to that situation than meets the eye," Eirayna warned. "It is not yet our place to judge those of the Eor."

"But I can," Kleu stated. "I am not as restricted as you choose to be."

"Boundaries are good things," Pavla said.

"You cannot argue against my efficiency, nonetheless," Kleu said as he gave her a fanged grin. Pavla shuddered and hovered closer to Hesperos.

"A time and place for all things," Eirayna nodded. "But for now, simply send them a warning, along with our suggestion to bring this violence to an end."

"If they do not agree with your suggestion?" Kleu asked gleefully.

"We shall cross that path when it comes," Eirayna said sternly.

"As you wish," Kleu bowed his head and vanished with his pack of faithful followers.

"Bloody hell, that hound scares the daylights out of me," Pavla muttered.

Goblin Hound

Old Shuck is my favorite mythological beast, but he's not the only black dog known to roam around. Anybody wanna guess which one that Kleu is based on? And he's black, by the way. He ain't a blue Kleu. ;)
