Fifth Night

"Mr. D, where are we heading?" 

Instead of heading south back to Fort Sterling, Alan had chosen to lead the group of 30 riders northward. There were a dozen abandoned villages scattered between them and their base to teh south, each likely infested with tens of thousands of undead.

While they had the advantage of riding on horses, Alan knew that marching through those hordes would result in too many casualties they couldn't afford. Additionally, Alan was not prepared to abandon the quest they had undertaken.

He followed the map he had acquired from the Britannia knight, a parchment with intricate markings that indicated the location of the fey village. Alan believed that this quest held a key to unraveling the mysteries and finding a way to combat the undead menace more effectively. Thus, despite the dangers and uncertainty that lay ahead, Alan made a calculated decision to press on.
