The Creatures Inside the Cave

It didn't take long for Arthur to check the situation inside the cave and his expression was rather peculiar.

"My lord, there's nothing dangerous inside the cave, but we have a little problem," Arthur muttered with a troubled look.

Hearing this, Alaric raised an eyebrow. "What did you see in there?"

"I think it would be better for you to see it yourself, my lord."

Alaric furrowed his eyebrows.

Just what did he see in there for him to be so hesitant to speak of it?

"Alright."

Alaric gave a hand signal to the remaining warriors as he urged his horse to move towards the cave.

Although Arthur said that the cave was safe, Alaric didn't let down his guard. His dominant hand was resting on the hilt of his sword.

Upon reaching the mouth of the cave, Alaric smelled the distinct scent of animal animal urine. It was faint, but it didn't escape his enhanced sense of smell.

A territorial mark?
