Eric was completely unaware of Sunflower's thoughts, assuming these big tigers simply couldn't sit still.
If it were up to him, these tigers should have arrived earlier, preferably during the land clearing.
With so many Tiger warriors helping, they would have saved so much energy back then. Eric remembered how exhausted the tribe members were, including the Dwarves in charge of cooking...
At worst, they could have waited until the harvest season to come; they could have helped harvest the wheat.
Yet, they arrived when the tribe was freest... Eric the exploiter felt extremely dissatisfied.
He looked regretfully at the other tigers left behind by Sunflower in the tribe. Look at them, these big hulking tigers were so bored some were picking their toenails.
Passing by the Tiger tribe's tent area, he didn't stop but went straight to the tents of the small beastmen.
