The mass of ravenous yukmen finally crashed into the front line of warriors. Their force had swelled to numerics so horrifying that she doubted she could even guess their numbers. Being stuck in the moment, it looked like this battle would never end. It would rage forever until perhaps the Gods might step in and put an end to it. Of course that wouldn't happen, though. One side would definitely lose. Hopefully not her's. The sound of physical combat was deafening; shouts, screams, and clash of weaponry smashing the earth and stone bodies of their enemies. Then above all else, the cry of the yukmen. It pulsated from an uncountable number of evil throats, all bent on murder. The order for artillery to fire was given and Gianne couldn't stop herself from gaping at the sky above as the deadly projectiles were released over and down to rain on the enemy. The crash of rubble and stone shook the earth and cut off the venomous screams of at least a small portion of their enemies. The ballistas were like giant arrows, and she could actually hear the sound of them slicing the air. Like a low whistle before they thundered down to devastate whomever had evaded the rock shower. So much death in one place, it was almost overwhelming. I wonder how much blood will be soaking into the land when this is all over? Hopefully not much. Hopefully much the casualties would lie within the earthen monsters' ranks. A horrible sound suddenly cut through her racing thoughts like a keen sword. It carried over the sound of battle, both her allies and yukmen were drowned out from it's scream. It squeezed her heart like a cold first and she couldn't help but turn fearful eyes on the woman next to her. Her bow arm grew slack as she released the tension on the string, allowing the weapon to point to the ground. Her arrow though stayed nocked on the string. Suddenly, she realized she knew the eypharian. From Beautyfest, only two days ago! "Rosela?" she whispered uncertainly. Her voice was only loud enough to carry to the woman's ears alone. It was thick with worry. "What... was that?" she asked uncertainly. It was at least obvious that whatever It was, was not good at all. |
