Something howled from the distance.
It was earthbreaking loud, and then, a few kilometers away from Aldred, a gigantic lava hand burst out of the ground before it pushed away the earth, revealing a blazing abyss of which creatures seemingly from hell crawled out and roared to the sky.
These creatures had various shapes and sizes but most of them stood at 3 meter tall with long tail and an arrow shape at the end.
They glanced towards the mountains and began charging.
"Hell be damned! They are coming towards us!" Strannon Shieldshaper shouted. He was the leader of the group tasked to defend the mountain a few kilometers from Aldred.
"Strannon! What will be your order?" Stath Mistcaller, his trusted friend, shouted.
"We will do as planned. Drop the boulders!"
