The Fall Of Placidia (2)

[Aevum Empire - Eastern Placidia - The Northern Castle]

The Aevum Empire held on longer than most kingdoms on Placidia, thanks to large castles that guarded the northern and southern entrances to the empire.

But their luck finally turned against them, when the ghouls unleashed their ultimate weapons - massive, hideous beasts that towered over the battlefield like giant humanoids.

These hulking monstrosities were covered in matted fur, and their eyes glinted with a feral hunger that made the bravest warriors tremble.

The hideous giants were sent forth to bring down the castle walls, but the Aevumians were prepared. They had acquired mana cannons from the Dwarves.

A commander stood on the wall and screamed out.

''Fire.''

As the cannons roared to life, the air crackled with energy as glowing orbs of mana shot from their barrels.
