Chapter 271

"Then we were fighting theshe monsters and they are like freaking shombies, I’m tellin’ you. No matter what I hit them with they just don’t shtay down. Finally I burn the shtoopid thing so much it falsh down and this ugly ass bug breaksh out of iz back and jush crawlsh off!"

"Donnelan, I think you’ve had enough. I can’t understand what on earth you’re saying."

"I’m..... FINE!"

"You are not fine, you’ve been trying to drink out of the bowl of nuts for the last fifteen minutes!"

"... Maybe I’sh had enough."

"I thought you mage types were supposed to be smart. You had enough an hour ago you moron. You’re juicier than a fiddler at festival time. I bet you can’t even walk."

Donnelan’s eyes go blank for a moment as he sways from side to side, testing his balance.

"Yous right!" he declared. "I cantsh walk."

Mirryn grunted with irritation. She’d been happy to join in and have a few drinks but she was quick to realise that the spirits they brewed down here were several levels more intense than anything they’d drunk on the surface.

The enormous Golgarin male had kept a watchful eye on his business all night but hadn’t had to flex his size on anyone, something that Mirryn was quite grateful for. Easily seven feet tall and quite literally looking as if he’d been carved from a mountainside, the man looked as if he could crush two human heads in one of his massive palms.
