Capítulo 289: Night Raid (4)

The following nights saw a spike in tension for the allied force, the natives and heroes as they continued their retreat. The first night after the initial ambush saw only those who strayed away to relieve themselves go missing. The night after that saw loud howls and animalistic grunts coming from every direction of their camp.

This was, of course, Shadow and his men moving around and making noise to confuse the army and deal a psychological blow. The noises made them feel like they had been utterly surrounded by a huge pack that was intent on scoffing every one of them down!

Erik became frustrated with the low morale and ordered Sarah and Kaitlyn to investigate the pack's numbers and species. However, whenever they headed in the direction of the various noises, they would find no traces of the supposed creatures' passage. The Tu'Thrag would always conceal themselves in the shadow realm when they sensed the approach of either of the women.
