Durin returned to the Candle Dragon Hall and exchanged intelligence with his girls.
Things were very calm on Chang Tang's side, with no major opposition to giving Durin his territory—of course, it wasn't that there was no opposition, just that they were opposed to how Durin achieved such great feats, yet only received these few broken islands.
Durin felt a bit awkward, thinking that these buddies meant well, but they didn't consider that even though Chang Tang is vast, what better regions could they offer him?
The Southeast Islands, just the thought of that place made Durin's scalp tingle. Anyone dealing with that patchwork program would end up swearing.
On the Southeast Peninsula, remnants of chaos were everywhere. If Durin weren't going to become the No-name, he could enjoy the love-hate drama with these small-time hoodlums until the end of the world. But the issue was that Durin intended to become the No-name.
What a mess.
