Seventh Stat Unlocked!
Gerulf firmly blocked the access to the main residence, but his enemies and the entrance routes were too numerous. Despite his strength and stature, the giant could only defend one gate. Unfortunately for him, he had never been good at numbers or strategy. Assailed by an army of mobs, he could only do what he could do best. Smash skulls and cut off heads.
Jake thought it was absurd that so many enemies would sacrifice themselves foolishly just to hold one man. The Kinthar was strong, but holding him at bay with spears or sifting him with arrows would have been more than enough.
As the guards were overrun by their traitor brothers and the black hooded invaders, more and more enemies crossed the surrounding wall and then the gardens. They then climbed the walls, crawled over roofs and balconies or infiltrated through the many corridors. Gerulf alone was containing half of his invaders, eliminating many of them before they could reach the building.
