Description
So, I have, uh, more homework... Professor Tyrgon's lessons are super tough! He wants us to find out what proto-whelps, uh, eat! Yeah... I already know the answer! It's riverbeast meat! Can you bring me a piece of riverbeast meat? Some riverbeast meat would be a great "visual aid" for my project. But it has to be a REALLY good piece, ok? Like... the ones from Pudgy Riverbeasts. One like a momma proto-drake would give their whelp to make them strong because, uh, it will make Mister Tyrgon happy.
