"It's time boy. You ready?"
"Let's do this."
The oaken door opened onto a dark, dark night. Kihot is leading us to the western ourskirts of thecity. Our group has no formation, no rank as we take the long walk toward the trouble. There have been reports of strange happens beyond the farm lands that surround this area. Missing livestock, dried up wells, diseased fields. It is unknown what exactly is causing it but we know it must be stopped.
Brat Khresti raises his hammer as a signal to stop our movement.
"There" warns Khresti.
He motions with the hammer in the direction of a large barn off in the distance. (How can he see, it's pitch black out here?) There's no moon to light the sky and our torches make it impossible to see that far.
"They're coming this way. Extinguish your torches."
The darkness is now upon us. As my eyes adjust in time to see the door of a small, nearby hovel close.
"Slesh, secure that building." commands Kihot
Vtrara and Palomnyk take up their positions at the sides of Kihot and Brat Khresti. Fanatyk, Oderzymi, and Synyak head out to the left of the order. And finally, Chayst and myself head to the right. The fight begins now.
