Betrayal (Pt.5)

Jorgen stands atop the wall as a ragtag group of guards emerge from the barracks and the shadows. All running towards the wall. A horn blares, calling for every man to the walls. The signal for an attack.

Jorgen's eyes are filled with the lights of thousands of torches as the might of Cevan stands before him. Lighting the forest beyond Faerdham, like the sun on a Summer day. Jorgen's heart falls from his chest as his fear has become a reality.

'It's too soon! A fortnight! You said a fortnight!'

'...What am I to do? I can't stop them.'

The walls clatter with the sound of boots as guards fill the walls. Harald arrives shortly after with a group of Knights following close behind him.

Harald nods to Jorgen.

"I'll handle the Northern portion of the wall. Go to the Southern side and make sure it holds. We don't know what these bastards have in store for us." He commands.
