Unexpected retreat

Amidst the rocky, cavernous terrain of the dwarf army's stronghold, Derek Khan stepped forward, his presence like a blaze in the darkness. His towering figure, cloaked in dark fur and leather armor, drew the attention of every dwarf soldier present. Their clinking armor and grumbling voices fell silent as they turned their eyes upon him.

The strongest members of the dwarf army, veterans of countless battles, exchanged wary glances as they recognized Derek's aura—the unmistakable mark of a warrior realm. This was a realm of power beyond their wildest expectations. They had been prepared for a confrontation, but not for this.

Derek's voice, deep and resonant, cut through the stillness as he introduced himself, "I am Derek Khan, Alpha of the Khan tribe."
