"I wish to see your mate in Tartarus soon," Chiron said, which culminated an uproar among the crowd.
A loud collective gasp escaped from the crowd upon hearing Chiron's provocative statement and the centaurs shook their head in disagreement. Contrary to what people believe, the centaurs were peace-seeking creatures, which always strive for balance in their life and would avoid conflicts as much as possible.
Therefore, to hear such vexing words from Chiron, it was hard for them to believe that they were coming from their respectful chief.
"Kill them!" the crowd hollered in one accord with a voice full of fury and hatred.
"Burn them to death!" echoed one voice after another and soon it became a wave of demands from the citizens as they growled and snarled at the two centaurs, who were bound to the adjacent poles with dry haystack around their feet.
