He ate it slowly and paid. I moved slowly towards the exit, trying to predict how events would develop further. However, everything was obvious here.A familiar warrior was waiting right outside the door. Yarsi cast a quick glance around the yard and stepped towards the hitching post."Hey, boy," a heavy, plate-gloved hand landed on his shoulder. “Wait a minute, there is a conversation.I had to stop and turn around, noticing how two more men in the form of royal troops were approaching from the side.- You're not local, are you? So?"Yes," Yarsi nodded. - And what?- Otherwise, you're out of luck, guy, you won't be able to say goodbye to your family. We have an order - we take away everyone who is suitable for service. So come with us.- And I do not fit, - the werewolf smiled mockingly.- And why is that? – menacingly asked the warrior, and the other two chose positions so as to cut off the path to escape. - Don't talk to me. Or are you thinking of resisting? So we will quickly clar

They stopped in a small depression. While the girl was walking to the river, Yarsi quickly gathered firewood, prepared a place for a fire and took out supplies from the travel bag. Of course, the fire could not have been kindled, but after the dampness of that road, I really wanted to at least dry my moisture-absorbed pants, which got all the spray from under the horse's hooves - on myself. And over the fire it was possible to fry bread and warm meat.The fellow traveler returned surprisingly quickly - cleanly washed, with smoothed hair, she saw the prepared branches and grabbed the staff.Let me light a fire! I'm doing well.The girl pointed her staff at the branches, whispered something softly. Yarsi prudently moved back, hoping very much that her skill was truly controllable and not like his own.The staff sparkled, a thin twisting lightning bolt fell from it, then another and another. They all hit exactly on the folded branches. Smoke appeared, and then flames danced.The werewolf

With great difficulty - the spikes on the fingers significantly interfered, managed to tie the corners of the fabric and somehow cover myself in front and behind. Yes, he understood that it was night and most likely no one would see him, but he could not help himself - he was not used to walking around naked. Although he immediately remembered the werewolves of Reeta, for whom it was quite natural, he tried to justify himself by saying that he was not in the forest.Vic moved forward again, holding on to the slipping loincloth and completely unaware of where to get clothes. He cautiously crept along the house and peered around the corner, sniffing. The only option was to rob a clothes shop. The street turned out to be, though not central, but not out of the way. Vistolets was pleased to find here both the baker's house and the home of the shoemaker, and a tailor's workshop was found.He rushed to the solid one-story mansion, forced to use his ability to move quickly. Whatever you do f
Wanderers Of the Night 77
The last cart passed over the bridge, the caravan immediately picked up speed - the horses were whipped up and forced to trot. It remains to cross a small meadow and you can enter the gates of Kerival.- Well, finally, - Tirena immediately hit the horse on the sides and let it go around the caravan.Yarsi did not rush forward, drove along the carts on the grass and remained on a par with the first. The driver glanced at him warily, then nodded inquiringly to the warrior riding on the other side. He silently moved to figure out who he was and what he needed, but did not have time to drive up to the incomprehensible traveler, when a desperate cry was heard somewhere behind him.Yasri tugged on the reins sharply, his horse reared up and turned in place. Almost simultaneously, the entire caravan froze on the road.The werewolf sniffed the air and, more by smell than by ear, moved to where something transforming was beating through the tension that bound the air. A second was added to the
Wanderers Of the Night 78
A detachment of armed horsemen appeared at the gates of Carival and galloped to the caravan standing in the middle of the road. At the magical dome, the riders took a step and, unable to get closer, moved along its border. Wary glances ran around the frightened faces, lingered on two decapitated corpses and motionless bodies dented into the bottom of an overturned cart. Hands immediately reached for the hilts of the swords, four took up crossbows and aimed them at the armed people in the caravan. Though it was pointless now, the dome wouldn't miss a single bolt.- What's going on here? roared the burly, broad-shouldered warrior at the head of the troop. The situation was not clear, they were watching this caravan from the moment it approached the bridge. As soon as the last cart was on this shore, strange things began to happen. The caravan suddenly stood in the middle of the road, and the cry of horror that came from it was heard even outside the city wall. Then the air trembled and

Kim curled up into a ball, wrapped his arms around his knees, and tried to force himself not to flinch. Did not work out. The thick, coal-black darkness of the night hid what was happening from his view with a reliable veil, but it could not get rid of the sounds. The teenager did not try not to listen, on the contrary, his ear alertly caught confident steps, swift sliding steps and a quiet whistle of air cut through by incredibly fast strokes of a monstrous weapon. Nearby something crackled, ripped open, and then fell heavily to the ground to forever freeze in immobility.The horror crept confidently from the battlefield like a cold cobweb, biting into space and mercilessly biting into the useless dome. For some reason, Kim knew, felt that Sarsh had gained his true strength even without his help. The power that can turn magic into nothing.It was scary, not for the first time he caught himself thinking that he needed to come to terms with the fact that Vic's power and abilities were
Wanderers Of the Night 80
Despite the strong gusty wind, the day promised to be hot. A wave of heat persistently crawled along the heated forest floor and shamelessly descended into the lowland, completely open to the sun's rays. The wind rustled in the tops of young pines, and hot streams persistently slid through the needles, reaching the lower branches.And before his eyes was not a forest, a cloud of haze rippled and spread in his eyes, steps on the hot sand more and more turned into torture. The air trembled with haze, spreading in thousands of images that were born in the mirror walls of the rocks. He froze in place, letting the heat gnaw at his feet, straightened up, squared his shoulders, looked at the distant gap in the entrance to the cave. The gaze clearly singled out the silhouettes of figures frozen on the border of darkness and light. They were waiting for him, but there was something wrong with this expectation. Sarshi are nocturnal creatures, and from the reflection in the rocks it was the sars
Wanderers Of the Night 81
All faces turned to the alien, people eagerly listened to his words, waiting for an explanation. Tink bit his lip until it bled, not drops, but trickles of blood flowed down his chin. He didn't have time to answer. A dusty cloud shot up over the rift and knuckles appeared along the edge - white-yellow, sharpened by time and raked earth, terribly sharp.The warriors who had arrived from Ereald began to look at each other, trembling hands clenched on the hilts of their swords, dragging the blades out. Mirovir with an involuntary grin watched the dreary misunderstanding, disbelief that was still read on their faces.Did you hope it wasn't true, people?The first row of skeletons swept out of the rift and quickly stepped forward, followed by the second, third, fourth... They pushed each other, tried to overtake, frantically rushed away from the open ground. The werewolf frowned. Something wasn't quite right. The army of fallen warriors did not at all resemble an army. This crush was more
