Aggressive Reaction

The sudden outburst startled Godrick. David's bident was still close to Godrick's throat, and he was now pressing it against it.

"Repeat what you said."

David was seething with anger.

"I… I said I shot a bigger one of them before running away. They killed my friends next to me without me noticing, so I bailed."

David stood back up, starting some rapid pacing.

"Fuck!" he barked, stabbing his weapon into the ground.

The undead under David's command still surrounded Godrick, so he didn't dare get up. But seeing the man's reaction, he could guess he had messed up something.

Alexander, who had been asleep when David had explained what would happen if the Hob was dead, also failed to understand David's anger. But the three others had complicated faces.

"Fuck!" David shouted again.

"Did I do something wrong?" Godrick asked, scared and confused.
