Chapter 57: Nightwatcher Den!
"How many of them are here?" Altros walked closer to Zen while speaking; his son and the others who were behind clustered together.
"Grigrigri." The growls of the nightwatchers started to drown the silence of the cave. The dim atmosphere lit by the torches awakened these slumbering entities from their rest.
The room was large enough for hundreds of them to lay about, and the way they slept was strange as can be. Their bodies could be seen standing, or even dangling down one of the thick tree roots that decorated the cave to make the area scarier.
"Get closer and hold your torches in front of you." Zen ordered.
"Since there are a lot of them, we can't use the spears. Light should be more than enough for us to deal with them." Dogan added.
"Roger."
"Understood."
