Difference between revisions of "Kill 'Em All at Nelrid-Thôl"

The warrior of the wind suddenly appeared behind the zombies. Vijkhal crashed through the door with the noise of shattering wood. He saw the Dog of Darkness bent over Kolghor’s body and about to finish him off. The orcish chief screamed while charging and knocked down two undead warriors standing in his way. Ignoring pain, he continued running, his bearskin coat flowing on his muscular shoulders, his weapon held high above his head like a humongous club. No one could have parried his blow, not even the Dog of Darkness, who was thrown back three meters, his arm dislocated. With a flip he was back on his feet, his reddened claw held in his able hand. The orc’s nostrils were smoking. Chagall tried to run around his target and confuse him, yet the orc knew and surprised the Acheronian in the middle of his maneuvers. Bitted by Vijkhal’s steel in a circular movement, the Dog of Darkness spun around and disengaged from the fight. The orc tried to pursue him, yet the thallion’s blows had weakened him and he watched the ghoul slowly escape him to return to the shadows.  

Tumahk gazed at the carnage, following Chagalls’ figure as he disappeared into the trees. He signed, grabbed a handful of snow and let it melt in the palm of his hand. Victory was theirs, yet Nelrid-Thôl was lost, exposed. Other enemies would come, more numerous and stronger. One day they would reach the Tree.
