Naugus has stared long and unblinking at the unfinished sigil in the earth and no answer has come to him. One way portal. Keystone is on the man trying to kill him. Kill him first and get it back? Kill all his soldiers in the process. They're organized. This place is remote but they were ready. More will come. How quickly? All of this was a trap. How could he have been so blind? All of this was a TRAP!
Hide? He should hide. But his own pride rails against the idea. Hide? Like a scared rodent? Hide and quiver in fear of a bunch of Overlanders with their outlandish tech and reliance on guns? To slip into the shadows or the soil or the air now wouldn't be tactical retreat, it would be cowardice! Another insult to his primacy!
Think. Think. Think. Think.
Naugus pushes himself back up to his feet, still breathing hard, furious at his quandry. When was the last time he did battle in a jungle? Not ever. He ran right through it to find a location better suited for his magicks last time he was in a place like this. Pushed on right to the Southern Tundra. But he doesn't know what lies beyond this place. The situation of the continents in this unknown world.
"YOU'RE MISTAKEN IF YOU THINK ANY OF YOU WILL LIVE TO SPEAK OF THIS INDECENCY!" He roars into the trees, sending birds from the branches in noisy flight.
