Siege & Strategy!

The sea of green grass where they farmed materials began with several high mounds forming distant hills to the west. The safe zone where the soldiers rested was near a stream that flowed through terraced terrain.

This area was close to a steep downhill road, and a cliff was directly behind them if they retreated too far. Hence, their escape route was following the ankle-high stream to the northeast. Although the road was downhill, it wasn't a deadly drop.

Of course, the dark terrain of the night was a problem in itself.

"Ar-are we not safe in this safe zone, Vizier?" a soldier shouted.

Without much delay, the answer came in shouts. "No! A diligent monster have seized dominance of the boss area in this region and they seem to have the authority to adjust the safe area."
