They’ve arrived

It was actually quite easy to guess!

The survival environment in the Black Forest was harsh. Every race had to hunt to survive and gather enough resources for the coming winter. If the prey within their territory wasn't enough, they would cross into other territories to hunt, even if it meant taking great risks.

But if they didn't fight for resources now, would they wait until winter came and let their entire race starve to death?

The Blackstone giants, thanks to their firestones, didn't lack resources. However, their kin, the Ironbone giants, weren't so lucky. Occasionally, they would sneak across the border into Blackstone territory to hunt.

But if they were caught, the outcome was always the same: death.

Just like the last time when Orion mercilessly killed that group of Ironbone giants—no mercy, no hesitation.
