Darkness Falls (I)

"They're here."

Rhode stood above the city walls and gazed into the darkness. The world wouldn't be changed by the will of people. No matter how much they disliked it, the Undead Creatures wouldn't care about their feelings. Fortunately, it was peaceful in the fortress during this period of time. After they heard that the Undead Army was about to launch their attacks, the soldiers appeared rather anxious. Rhode secretly observed that his men who participated in the previous battle were more confident. On the other hand, Bayer's men seemed concerned as it would be their first experience taking on the Undead Army. In order to prevent accidents, Rhode split and merged them with his soldiers to 'infect' them with the confidence of the 'veterans'. Sometimes, simple speculations were more frightening than reality and Rhode didn't wish to see his side crumble to delusions and fear before the war began.
