Warlord's Solution

Adrian was momentarily dumbfounded. He hadn't expected to encounter monsters capable of speech, let alone ones engaged in such a complex dispute. Shaking his head, he reminded himself that this was a fantasy world, and anything was possible. Yeah, that was the best way to convince himself.

'But, in this case, it might get easier than I thought... Let's listen to them for a bit...'

As he continued to listen, the chiefs' conversation provided more context. 

"You think you can intimidate us with your dark magic?" Brakkar growled. "We have survived worse than you!"

Gnarl's eyes flashed with fury. "Your arrogance will be your downfall. We have the numbers and the strength to crush you!"

Adrian's mind raced as he pieced together the situation. It seemed the two tribes had decided to settle their dispute through a battle between their leaders. The outcome would determine the fate of the forest and its resources.
