The air hung heavy with the stench of death, and the once-hallowed halls of the mountainous stronghold now echoed with the silence of the fallen. Venganza, draped in a hooded dress that left her midriff exposed, walked through the desolate corridors with an air of triumph. Two imperial guards, their armor stained with the blood of the fallen, followed closely behind, carrying a small metal chest clinked with an ominous weight.The journey through the deadened halls led them to Seklas's private chambers, which had witnessed the rise and fall of kingdoms and now bore witness to the aftermath of Venganza's brutal campaign.

As he pulled himself onto the cold, unforgiving rocks, he lay there for a moment, staring up at the imposing silhouette of the bridge city above.Shivering from the biting cold, Aaslaam struggled to his feet, his teeth chattering as he scanned the area. Spotting his scimitar bobbing in the water nearby, he hurried over to retrieve it, the icy grip of the river still clinging to its blade. "At least I won't be defenseless," he muttered, his fingers tightening around the familiar hilt.But as he stood there, the wind began to h
