Chapitre 589: Contagion (Ch.590)

~Fort Scabbard

The sun had just begun its ascent over the small town, yet a sense of unease was already settled upon its inhabitants...one which had come to stay, it seemed.

The once bustling streets were now eerily quiet, with only a few venturing outside at these early hours for the most urgent purposes and nothing more.

Perhaps for fear that a moment out at an odd hour would somehow make one more susceptible to the contagion.

Up ahead, the patrol dragons soared, far out of sight of the human eyes but low enough that they kept a close eye on the settlement, 

But watch as they did, this threat was one neither their fire nor might could contend. All they could do was look on in concern as the state of things swiftly worsened, and closely guard a city that was slowly being ravaged from within.
