At Dawn

Since Rakahn's arrival, a heavy silence enveloped the camp. Every soldier understood the gravity of their mission: to remain vigilant, uncover the mysteries of the shadows, and do so even at the expense of their rest.

The troops, positioned at strategic points, formed an invisible web around the area. Concealed in darkness, they were ready to spring into action at the slightest suspicious movement. Yet, for now, the enemy remained elusive.

Leading his team, Rakahn cautiously advanced through these unfamiliar lands. Every step, every calculated movement revealed his experience and sharpness. A single misstep here could be fatal. He scanned the surroundings with keen awareness: the sparse trees, the damp earth yielding underfoot, the whisper of the wind through the leaves. Even the animals seemed to avoid this region, as if an unseen presence had driven them away.
