In Hydra Kingdom

Eltanin, Fafnir, Lerna and Rigel stood there at the place where the seal was broken. They were flanked by twenty faes, each equipped with lethal weapons from head to toe. 

Eltanin nudged his horse to move forward and signaled the rest to follow him. When they entered, Lerna noticed that the entire place was absolutely quiet. Not a single soul was there on this side of the river. The lone bridge that stood connecting Hydra with the rest of the mainland was damaged beyond recognition. Half of it was jutting out on the river with its support pillars broken or shattered. 

"How are we going to cross?" Lerna said, feeling miserable about the desolate state of the bridge.
