Alarms blared continuously inside the Moon Fall Stronghold, and the atmosphere was tense.
Soldiers rushed to the high wall, gripping their weapons tightly, their expressions solemn.
"Is it another monster attack?" one soldier asked.
"I think so… but why would the monsters attack so soon?"
This was the thought that baffled most of the soldiers. They had just repelled a monster tide last month and weren't expecting another one so soon.
With another monster tide looming on the horizon, all the soldiers couldn't help but feel their nerves tighten. Every time the monsters attacked, thousands of soldiers lost their lives, and now, no one knew who would live to see tomorrow.
Though tense and slightly nervous, none of them feared death. As long as they could protect their homeland, they would die with smiles.
