The wings of several Lion Scorpions rumbled through the mountains, flying over the ground ruins of Steel Furnace Castle, finally landing on the nest platform at the mountain top.
Unfastening the reins, the sturdy Hem led the Dwarf Warriors back to the stone platform, pulling the chains tied to the Scorpion-tailed Lion as they entered the cave.
The long-waiting Beast Tamers and Sentinels stowed their smoking pipes and quickly approached.
"It's truly delightful to see you return safely, may Omlos bless you, Elder Hem, was this journey smooth?" The Dwarf guard at the mountain top entrance greeted the ancient kin standing before him.
Hem accepted the warm embrace of his compatriots, patting each other's arms, and replied, "My companions will soon return to Steel Furnace Castle."
