Notes about the enemy/CHAPTER 9 OUT.

Posted on Wed Dec 16, 2009 7:18 pm

"This material is intended to aid the warriors of the Sentinel against our enemies, and to give more detailed information about the Scourges champions. To this book, I have gathered my first hand experiences, stories, rumors and reports from the Sentinel and it's allies, to enlighten the facts about the foes we are up against.

Use this material before considering hunting down a foe or encountering one on the field.

-Mirana Nightshade"

Kardel closed the book and looked at the camp of the Sentinel. Some druids and soldiers were returning from the patrol, and the mood started to rise as the perimeter was proven safe. He lighted up his pipe and opened the book again.

The book wasn't very easy to use. There weren't any kind index in the beginning, and most of the pages seemed to be written in quite a hurry, and there were a lot of typos and stains on some of the oldest pages. "Someone should rewrite this", Kardel muttered and put away his pipe which had burned out. He turned the pages, looking at each one carefully. He was looking for a writing about a flying beast seen in the north, on the edge of the river.

The Bounty Hunter who was scouting behind enemylines there told him that a new kind of enemy had entered the battle a few days ago. This captured Kardels interest since there were always money promised for mercenaries like him for taking out any of the..."officers" (as some mercenaries called Scourges champions or simply stronger entities than a mindless ghoul) of the Scourge. The quicker the better.

Gondar had described the being black, flying with two wings. The beast was told to have six limbs; hands and four legs, and seemed to be created from black rocks or possibly obsidian. Kardel had heard rumors about obsidianic statues being used by the Scourge in Northrend, but this was something different.

His concentration was disturbed after a while of reading when he heard some loud noises and shouting at the far end of the outpost. The Goblin Alchemist had entered the camp. Soldiers and druids were shouting insults to the little goblin riding on a huge ogre, which ran forward decisevily and swiftly (probably drugged, thought Kardel) through the camp. The Ogre was carrying large sacks of loot on his hips.

This was the reason why Razzil was despised among the Sentinel. Like any good mercenarcy has to, he too was extremely greedy. But in Razzils case it went quite over the limits. He had a habit of looting all the corpses in the battlefield. There were rumors about him looting even the corpses of his dead allies after battles. This was never proven but still he was hated for his greed. No one really thought that the goblin minded actually. He probably hated the Sentinel as much as they hated him.

Kardel turned his attention back to the book. "Here we go" he said outloud, as he saw a raw sketch on the left page. It resembled a centaur with wings and it was holding a pair of funny looking clubs. This was what he was looking for. Kardel started reading the next page.

"Written by Mirana Nightshade, captain of the Sentinel. This is the official report from our encounter against the beast known as the Obsidian Destroyer which happened 4 days ago, by the great river."

to be continued soon
