"Lord Medivh, this mountainous region is within the Kobold tribe's territory."
The Kobold tribe had been discovered in the Winter Mountains by the Skeleton Assassins during their early explorations of the mountain roads.
Medivh had assigned several Bone Spirit Assassins to keep the Kobold tribe under long-term surveillance and investigate it.
The Kobold tribe had a large population. The houses aboveground were just a facade; most of them lived in underground mines.
The underground mines beneath this mountainous region were a tangled maze. It took the Bone Spirit Assassins more than a year to explore them and map out the entire labyrinthine network.
Medivh had set his sights on the Kobold tribe because it was a tribe that worshipped its ancestors with extreme devotion.
Kobolds dried their dead before burying them in dry places where they would not easily decay.
The underground Graveyard District of the Kobold tribe was enormous. A few days earlier, the Bone Spirit Assassins had evaded the Transcendental Kobolds and secretly investigated it, discovering countless skeletons inside.
After learning about such a magnificent Ancestral Graveyard, how could Medivh resist excavating it?
"Seal off every hidden exit. Move out!"
Once all the soldiers were in position, Medivh gave the order to attack.
The main force of the Skeleton army attacked the buildings aboveground, seizing the main entrances.
The remaining Green Bone Skeletons, led by the Transcendental Skeletons, sealed off the escape routes from the underground mines.
"High Priest, skeletons have attacked our farms!"
As soon as the buildings aboveground were attacked, a Kobold Warrior ran to the Ancestral Graveyard to report to the Kobold Dragonblood Sorcerer.
Kobolds claimed to be descendants of Dragons. Never mind whether they looked the part; the fact that the Kobold tribe produced Dragonblood Warriors and Dragonblood Sorcerers was indisputable.
