This Was How The World Ended

(Lian Li POV)

There was only another day before the predicted Dong army would come rushing out of the mountains to invade us like the barbarians they are.

The scouts that have been posted near the caves could already hear the hammering of pick against rock if they prick their ears enough.

The fact that we do not know when they will decide to break through is the thing that is causing the most stress amongst us.

In the few days that we were here, we had evacuated the townsfolk and had builders convert the buildings into makeshift archery posts while using the others as military outposts.

Since the town hall for this place was questionably located on top of the mountain itself, we could not use that as the headquarters and instead, opted to use this nameless Sect building that we found that was suspiciously unoccupied.
