Prelude to Chaos: Last Ditch Efforts P1
Nightshade duchy. Badlands.
The only urban settlement from the current battleground, which was deep into the Badlands, was the city of Curar.
"Aaaaaaargough!"
A monster howl could be heard from the only patch of open ground surrounded by dense vegetation. This patch was recently created. C-Rank and B-Rank spells being cast one after the other led to the creation of this battleground.
The residual mana signatures of mana spells and monster spells could be felt everywhere. It was an indication that a fight between powerful entities had taken place. Each side had their juniors too, who had battles of their own.
Suffice to say that the adventurers' side had almost won against the monster hordes. It was only the leader of the tribe that was alive and kicking to take care.
The monster that howled was a Gnoll King.
