The First Mission

"The walls are not very high, and they are poorly maintained. And there's no one patrolling. Their defenses are pitiful." - Henry observed as he studied the fortification protecting Drathla, the capital of Luak. 

The city sprawled across a large plain, its stone walls bordered by the cold forests of the north. The walls were barely a third of the size of those surrounding Stahl's capital, and riddled with holes and crumbling sections where the parapets were missing. Henry scanned the perimeter again, confirming that not a single soldier was stationed on the wall. It was the capital of a kingdom, and yet its security was almost non-existent. It was as if no danger ever befell this city.
