Austin's Dragon Vein Attendants immediately began intense training once formed. Once they were trained to cooperate with ordinary Beastman armies, they launched their campaign and embarked on the path of conquest.
The Jackal Wolfman Tribe, numbering over five hundred, was still able to maintain peace and stability, but other tribes immediately met disaster.
Austin established his territory with the Dragon's Nest as the center, extending ten miles around, rarely allowing Beastmen to cross this boundary. However, that did not mean he didn't send people to investigate the conditions of nearby Beastman Tribes.
Early on, when Austin asked the Fox-faced Man, Quik, how to quickly increase the population of the Dragon Nest Tribe, Quik proposed two methods.
One involved lighting smoke pillars to attract wandering Beastmen, raising the Dragon Nest Tribe from a micro-tribe of over thirty to a small tribe of a hundred.
