Most of the Sandfury Trolls would not strongly oppose Ukorz Sandscalp's desire to get rid of Gahz'rilla.
But such an act of gross defiance could not be carried out openly.
Hiring an outsider to kill Gahz'rilla was therefore a very suitable choice.
As luck would have it, they had caught a few petty thieves attempting to steal things over the past few days.
There were enough of them to hold a grand sacrificial ceremony at the temple.

Thus, Herad swallowed the bait Ukorz Sandscalp offered without hesitation.
After agreeing on a date for the operation,
