The Dragon Hunters
“The Hooded Man was forcing them to dig too deep. Already the Goblin had lost a large part of his slave labor force and over a dozen guards during the last accident when Minotaur workers ruptured an active lava vein. Scourd couldn’t afford to lose any more if he expected to maintain schedule. Rumors of the enemy moving against them heightened his nerves. Several patrols were missing and his soldiers grumbled about the future. All of his carefully laid plans for dominion were slipping away.
S...itting alone in his private chambers, Scourd closed his eyes and tried to think of a way to salvage victory. The task proved more difficult than he anticipated. He couldn’t fight an enemy he couldn’t see or know. One of his scouts mentioned the Aeldruin, but that seemed unlikely. The Elven mercenaries were whispers of imagination told to young warriors to keep them from becoming too arrogant. Still, their very name struck fear among his people. Doubt rippled through his ranks and he didn’t know how to stop it.MoreLess
