CH188 The Wildkin Attacks!
***
The City of Werth, like every other settlement bordering the Ironmourn Desert, was no stranger to Wildkin raiding parties.
However, the Dankrot Plains usually bore the brunt of those attacks. Not only were the plains more fertile with lush grasslands and farm fields, but they were also home to formidable Fury warriors whose presence seemed to lure Orcs like moths to a flame. As a result, the City of Werth seldom encountered powerful raids.
The most notable assault in Werth's history had involved a thousand-strong raid, mostly composed of Snakekin—a race neither particularly easy nor overly difficult to repel.
Yet now, as Lieutenant Hans stared into the distance using the Archer archetype ability [Eagle Sight], he saw what could only be described as a dark tide on the horizon.
A horde no smaller than twenty thousand.
Leading the charge were powerful Orc warriors and shamans. Behind them surged a chaotic mix of Wildkin races and desert beasts.
