Clash

First, the creatures came in tens, then fifties, then hundreds.

With the archer team at the ready, arrows soon flew into the air and downed the creatures that ran out from the rift, killing them within the first 10 seconds of their lives on the surface. However, as more time passed, the number of these ghastly creatures with jagged teeth doubled, and soon, they were swarming out and struggling up the steep V-shaped valley, a struggle that saw the archers harvest their lives in droves.

With one of the hillslopes of the valley being a rocky hill so tall that it might as well be a mountain from down the valley, the only other exit routes from the valley floor were the two ends at its side and the scalable hillslope that had Hannah and her army at the top.
