Dalla Brown: The Slapper

Arad stared at the queen as the guards dragged the noble out, smiling. He then turned toward the other nobles, "Does anyone else want to say anything?"

"How about the damage to the forest?" A druid of them approached, "We can't leave the forest half erased like that,"

Arad looked at him, scratching his head, "I still have the dirt and torn trees. I can dump them back there for use,"

The druid sighed, "It's a part of nature," He looked out of the window, "Give us the dirt back. We need something to fill the hole with. I will deal with replanting the trees,"

The other druids between the nobles looked at each other with a smile, "Thanks the world tree, this is getting over,"

Druids are servants of nature and walk by its rules. As intelligent dragons are, they are still considered wild monsters, and it's a rule of nature that they fight back like a disaster.

To them, Arad destroying the forest is no different than a bear scratching trees. They won't go complaining about it.
