Gordrakk’s eyes lit up with a vicious light at the memory. ‘Big armour. Big weapons. Good in a scrap. Zog me, Urgak, dey even came back fer more when you smashed ’em!’ Gordrakk’s green hand crashed against the Megaboss’s shoulder, staggering Urgak. ‘Finally, I thought – ’ere’s a proppa fight. An’ fer a time, that was enough.’

‘An’ den, they let me down,’ Gordrakk seemed almost to sigh. A lesser being might have mistaken the sound for wistfulness. Urgak knew it was frustration. It was always frustration. Smasha and Kunnin’ twitched as the Fist of Gork’s tapped his fingers on their grips.

‘They started buildin’ cities. They started throwin’ about magic. They hid gubbinz in places like this,’ he gestured around the inner sanctum. ‘That’s when I realised, Urgak. The storm lads – they’re just like all da uvvers. Just like every other git not worthy of fightin’ me.’

Bigteef’s growl echoed its master’s growing displeasure. Urgak swallowed; he wasn’t sure if this was an invitation to respond, or if Gordrakk would respond as violently to questioning as he did most other things. But the orruk’s curiosity was piqued.

‘Dere’s gotta be someone out there worthy of gettin’ krumped by you, boss.’

‘The Hammer God.’

The vehemence, the bubbling fury, in Gordrakk’s voice saw Urgak flinch again. A predator’s rumble escaped the Fist of Gork, spittle running past sharpened tusks.

‘The Hammer God’s the only one still worth fightin’. He’s a proppa warrior. Proppa enough to earn the respect of Gorkamorka. But time’s changed,’ Gordrakk’s eyes narrowed as he gripped his axes tighter. ‘Now da Hammer God hides up in the stars. He’s forgotten who he was. But I know. I can kick over every one of his precious little cities. I can duff up the biggest and ’ardest of his champions. I can grind these realms to dust beneath me boot. But I ain’t never gonna be satisfied until I can get at the git that fought Gorkamorka to a standstill.’ The hulking orruk shook his head. ‘I ain’t gonna be satisfied until I’ve had a crack at the Hammer God.’

One moment, he was still. The next, Gordrakk was in motion, iron-shod boots clanging against the cracked stone floor. As he neared the doorway, the Fist of Gork raised Kunnin’. The axe sundered magic, shattered sorcery, annihilated the perfidious arcane. It was with savage enthusiasm, then, that Gordrakk swung the blade.

The doors blasted off their hinges. Urgak, alongside several of the gargants, twitched as metal scraped loudly across the floor. The magical wards flickered before the surge of Waaagh! energy obliterated them. An echoing silence descended over the vault once more, before a growl from Bigteef saw Urgak follow after the Fist of Gork.

Zephyrs of broken magic flickered around the orruks, offering paltry illumination. Standing a pace behind Gordrakk, Urgak lifted his gaze into the darkness. His barrel jaw dropped. Suspended upon thick chains and surrounded by dead-eyed statues hung a truly titanic beast skull. Behemothic horns curled from its temples, while its great eye-sockets were rimmed by burn marks.
