The leader of The Raging Lion Tribe, Grayson, quickly stepped forward to smooth things over. He was a burly middle-aged man with striking short golden hair.
He looked at Lyle Sutton and laughed twice: "Chief Sutton, this time we have your tribe's medicinal recipe and Holy Water to thank for helping The Raging Lion Tribe through this crisis. These beast hides and ivory are a token of our appreciation."
As he spoke, he turned and signaled to the beastmen behind him, instructing them to bring over several large bundles of high-quality beast hides and a pair of complete ivory tusks.
To say this pile of gifts isn't painful to part with would be false.
Especially now with winter approaching, beast hides for warmth are even more scarce and valuable.
But The Wolf Tribe developed the cure for the plague and also gave them a precious medicinal catalyst, essentially saving The Raging Lions.
At a time like this, they naturally couldn't be stingy.
