Demon Lost
“Hish hadn't come with us—he was still recovering. I was their protection. My eye was swelling, I could barely see as I fired. The next blast blew everything up around us, leaving a crater behind. We stood on a small island of desert sand, gaping at a trench ten hands deep around us. The outer edges of our circle were irregular—the explosion had seen to that. Our island was perhaps thirty hands across—two very tall men might have fit lengthwise across that distance. The circle was large enough t...o hold all of us, with a bit of extra room. We were covered with dust, sand and detritus as we went back to firing at the points of light coming in our direction.The number of the enemy killed may remain a mystery—we fired until our rifles ran out of power. We hadn't brought extras—Max could only transport so much. He had to transport us back to the site from which he'd taken us in the beginning when more of the enemy poured out of the village, intent on taking us down. I didn't think whatever I had protected against a physical attack—only one sent by wizards.MoreLess
