Journey to Mur (2)

The vast expanse of ocean stretched endlessly beneath the army of black wyverns, its dark waters concealing untold horrors in their depths, which Erik absolutely had no wish to meet.

Two hours had passed since Erik and the army left the Law Gate, and the mainland was now just a hazy line on the horizon.

Erik was at the helm of the formation, scanning both sea and sky in search of Thaids that escaped the undead's notice.

Even with the undead scouts patrolling ahead and around them, the ocean's depths made their surveillance far from perfect. The waters were simply too deep, and a thaid could easily lurk hundreds of meters below, completely undetected.

Or worse, these monsters could simply swim into the area after the undead had already passed through, rendering their scouting efforts useless.
