It took a moment for Alex to realize that he was looking at Legion Commander Thane and, stretching his void sense further, he realized that he was surrounded by frozen corpses, corpses that belonged to the Skaven Army.
"Captain Hidden One, you did a tremendous job. Now rest and recover," Commander Thane said as he gently pressed a potion to Alex's lips, urging him to drink.
"Take care of your captain," Thane ordered, his voice firm and unyielding as he handed Alex over to Vakkan and the surviving soldiers.
While Vakkan gently took hold of Alex using his telekinesis, Alex spread his void sense as far as he could, trying to piece together what had happened while he was gone.
A look at hundreds of thousands of Skaven frozen to death told Alex that someone truly strong had come to their rescue, but the one thing that bugged him was what happened to the Skaven King.
