Kingslayer’s Bluff

The empty stone altar Heon was standing on suddenly shifted open, showing him that there was a stair leading down.

"I think I found the way!" he told Azran.

Alas. Before he could do anything else, something was coming from inside.

Five people. Wearing a dark hooded cape and what looked like leather armor with insignia on their shoulders. In a matter of seconds, they drew their swords, pointing them directly to where he was. Only one of them was not drawing a sword. Instead, he got a curved blade in his hand.
