The warforged knew when to fight and when to surrender ... but others weren't so wise. The dwarf that had been doing business with Link rose to his feet, his hand dropping to the knife at his belt.
Spike slammed Link's head into the dwarf's face.
The warforged scout was formed from mithral, steel, and wood. Spike might just as well have hit his enemy with an iron ingot. The merchant collapsed, blood streaming from his nose and shattered lip. Spike knelt and picked up the knife the dwarf had dropped. Spike studied the dwarf blade, admiring its weight and design. Then he remembered the scout hanging in his grip. He tapped Link's forehead with the point of the dagger, producing a sharp ring. Spike's face was a metal mask, and he couldn't grin. Instead he tightened his grip around Link's throat, savoring the victory and anticipating the battles that lay ahead.
