THE DARK COVENANT

Another group of freed captives that had broken free from a prison in Defectors State, courtesy of Anato Strider, had conjoined with Garvin’s group. They met along the way, both heading towards the village at the edge of the forest. It was then a massive multitude of people that if viewed from afar one could've thought an army was advancing for an invasion. 


The village was so well hidden amongst the cover of forest trees that Tyndale didn’t even manage to locate it during his conquest. He also realized the Vurhan's occupied the forest and if he engaged with them, with the limited manpower he had, it would prove costly. As Garvin and his multitude entered the forest, lumberjacks who were taking a break from their strenuous work noticed the oncoming herd. Their panicked legs ran back to the village to sound the alarm. From afar Garvin could hear the blaring horns. Soon after a group emerged from the forest armed with axes and Spears.
