Zane is a very demanding man and he wants to take over the bottom part of the mountain. Zane comes from a long heritage of lumberjacks, thus making his people work as lumberjacks.

These guards didn’t ask them anything and got straight to the point. They knew these people weren’t supposed to be here so they automatically attacked. The army wasn’t ready for this, and all of their people died. The Greogs are ecstatic they won, but the Lumberjacks are mourning. This won’t be the last
