Flog probably won’t go for it and being here during a siege probably will be just as if not more dangerous.
“Okay, we’ll stay here for a moment to get some rest and then get going. I hate to admit it but with the recent wendigo encounter and traipsing across the countryside I’m eager to get this over with since I’m starting to feel my age.” You quietly say to Talia.
“Are you going to be okay?”
“Yes, I’ll be fine, just need to get this mission over with.”
You stay at Blood Tooth for a few hours to rest, but soon set off on your mission since the company of orcs isn’t something you or any of the shadows want to endure for very long.
The journey to Mogtown is a miserable one, since the snow begins to fall heavier the further north you go. The snow is so deep that you can’t really speed yourself up since your legs are buried in the snow to the point where you can’t even run. Cloaking is useless since you’re leaving tracks everywhere. By the time you reach your destination, you’ve half frozen and exhausted.
When you see Mogtown in the distance, you’re in for a slight surprise. The front of the town is crawling with troops. Giants, orcs, and ogres are all standing around preparing to invade Blood Tooth no doubt. You expected some guards outside, but nothing like this.
“We’ll sneak around the back and scale the wall from there. Mog’s probably still inside the town in one of the more important looking buildings.” You tell everyone.
Your plan is about the best you can do under the circumstances and while you manage to avoid detection from the patrols, unfortunately there are more wendigos lurking on the outskirts ready to pick anyone off that comes near. They waste no time attacking you and while you’re better prepared for such creatures now, the noise ends up attracting the town garrison.
“Quick, scale the walls and let’s find this half breed bastard!” you shout.
After scaling the walls you find yourself surrounded by more enemies waiting for you. You have to butcher your way through several orcs and ogres before you can catch a breather. You run down an alleyway to avoid more troops descending on your position.
The alley way seems to have been converted into a slave pen filled with humans. You briefly consider freeing them in order to cause a little chaos, but the humans in the cages look so pathetic, you doubt if they’d have the power to even move.
Suddenly large shadows loom over you in the form of a couple giants who are standing on the outside of the nearby town walls throwing great clots of snow at you.. They succeed in destroying some buildings, killing some slaves as well as slowing you down when you feel a great force slam you to the ground from above.
You struggle to maintain consciousness as you try to dig your way out of an icy grave. You don’t have time to morn when you notice Talia’s lifeless body as you dig by it. When your head reaches air you take a deep breath, but this small comfort is cut short when you catch an arrow in the skull.
