The atmosphere inside of the town was tense and grim. Rain hammered down upon the troops atop the wall. Kace looked to his left and right at the goblins and orcs standing beside him. Before them, upon the open stretching out in front of the town stood the combined force of the heroes and mercenaries.
Amongst the five enemy commanders standing with their own troops Kace recognised Sarah, Gregory and Phillip. Phillip still being alive had delivered quite a shock to him.
'I know I killed him so how is he here now?' Kace furrowed his brow as he thought about the matter.
On the other side however...
"Sir, Gregory has sent me to report that the figure above the gates. The one with the halberd. Is most likely the monster that killed your son."
Urien stared at the message barer before turning his sights back to the gate. Although the halberd and heavy armour were not mentioned before the coat itself certainly fit the description.
So this is the first of four chapters to be released within 24 hours. I hope you enjoy it. Also Phillip is now the only human to actually know what they are up against! Will he share this with the others? Who knows.
See you all next chapter!
