*warning!! Gore!!*
As they entered the palace, Malakai was met with a terrifying sight. A sea of humans stood before them, their weapons glinting in the dim light.
Malakai's heart raced as he scanned the room, his mind struggling to comprehend the sheer number of enemies before him.
He had expected some resistance, but nothing like this.
Malakai's thoughts flashed back to Gorthok, wondering why the dragon hadn't burnt down the palace like he had the city.
He was sure Gorthok's dragon fire would have already finished them off.
But he didn't have time to ponder this question, as a sudden movement from one of the humans caught his attention.
The human had shifted slightly, and Malakai's instincts flinched in response.
To the humans, it looked like he was attacking, and the archers who had been pointing their arrows at him let loose.
