Narg had always prioritized the safety and future of the clan above almost everything else. Of course, his response would lean toward practicality instead of blind loyalty.
And Gobbo…
Gobbo was similar to Dribb in many ways. To goblins like them, strength wasn't merely important—it was the foundation everything else stood on. Respect, fear, authority, survival… all of it came from power.
So naturally, he would think that way.
And if I were being completely honest with myself, in a situation where I truly became powerless, I would actually want one of the goblins I trusted to step up and lead the clan properly instead of clinging to sentimentality while everything collapsed around them.
No clan could survive under a weak leader.
At least, I had never seen one that could.
This world simply didn't work that way. Strength was what held everything together, and once that foundation disappeared, collapse usually followed shortly after.
