Chapitre 289: CCLXXXIX. The Sighting

"What?! Do you mean that... all the other corpses have a drained body like this old man's?" Reidar asked back, who tried to calm the horses, after getting agitated to see Dag come out of nowhere and throw himself to the ground.

"That's right... their skin was enveloping nothing but the bones... there were also women and children... I will never forget this scene... how can the Jotunns be so cruel?! Reducing innocent people in these conditions... what have these children done to deserve such treatment? What serious crime did they commit to die so excruciatingly?! Fuck!" Dag yelled, venting all the anger, fear, and nervousness of the moment.

Reidar approached him and helped him get up, shocked by his words, realizing that he was not exaggerating, knowing his Captain, who rarely grossed out like that, risking vomiting.

"Let's go back to the village... I think we've seen enough..." said the archer, inviting Dag to get on horseback.
