Keeping to the base camp was just not their speed. The three that did stick around obviously did not care. They got to hand around strong NPC's that were obviously into them. After the Bonding with Doran, two thirds of the village experienced just how nice it was to bond with humans. Some of the more randy pilgrim and militiamen were down for Bonding in exchange for sexual encounters afterwards. Father Conrad and the dozen other clerics in the town had their hands full explaining and teaching all of the faith to them. They had some reservations, but they were willing to agree because they all knew the seriousness of the situation and how strong we were. With all of them at such a high level, we were able to allow them to defend the town on their own. Arbar was a male and it was not going to be seemly to permanently Bond to a female just so he could fuck Sir Doran. That meant we would need to find a female for him to absorb. The soldiers from Igniso were all males. We were going to have to go on a raid for one. I took my party and had Arbar ride on my back. Paul came along as well.
Quietly, we went West to the nearest village. There were several green Likins being whipped as chattel slaves by Igniso peasants. It must have really been bad for them if they were already settling on the land. That did just mean that there was a plethora of targets before us. I let Arbar off of my back. He nodded and we infiltrated the village together. With his power, he was able to raise trees and vines to block and ensnare the peasants. We were able to take the village without much of a fight. Arbar then absorbed the red Likins. His high level allowed him to devour and dissolve all the others without much resistance. Men, women and children were all absorbed into the younger son of the chief. Arbar's skin began to lighten to a dark gray. It was clear from his visible erection that he was getting pleasure from it. When the last one was taken inside him, he came in his pants. The climax was obvious, but still surprising. Moaning, Arbar clung onto Doran. "This feels so good! I want to share this with you. If we Bonded, you could feel as good as I do!" he said. Doran sighed. "Later, Arbar, my spouse."
Being betrothed, it was no surprise that they were able to have these conversations without any embarrassment. Being Bonded before allowed them to have full trust. All the other Likins that were being oppressed were freed by us. Arbar was already given a basic script on what to say. "Listen to me, everyone. These foreigners come from far off lands. After liberating my village, they taught me a lot of new things. If you pledge yourself to their religion, it will make you allies and they will protect you and make you stronger." he said. They all saw what he did and they could see he was pretty powerful. Arbar answered their questions and was able to convince them that we were their best bet." Both Anne and Otto stayed back to show them that they were allies. The rest of us rode back together. With the success, we were able to send three clerics, some pilgrims and the Nimbus Militia over to bolster that village. This village was our main base. Father Conrad was able to marry them and Sir Doran took his new spouse to their home. All was seemingly well. Sir Gifford said "It's time to go on the march."
