The Left Hand

The autumn nights started to get colder and colder, though Isolated Cliff City started to become more and more lively. Spring and summer were the two prime seasons for holy animal hunting because most mid-grade holy animals mate during the start of spring and give birth at the end of summer. Both took great tolls on the strength of holy animals which made the mercenaries' hunt much easier. Sometimes, one could even stumble upon something valuable without even lifting a finger. 

Meanwhile, winter was a season reserved for celebration. At least for the mercenaries, mere bone-chilling winds weren't enough to extinguish their lust that had been pent up for a year. Besides, since they didn't need to hunt, there wasn't any need to preserve stamina. It was understandable that everyone would want to enjoy their lives for a while after more than half a year of hard work.
