Chapter LIIA lone figure walked down the path of the Hollow woods. Unarmed, or so they thought.
Creatures started moving from within the trees, careful not to be seen. They are excellent hunters in the dark, and the tall trees of the hollow woods provided that darkness, even in day.
The lone figure stopped for awhile, tilting his head slightly to see the trees behind. He gave a quick grin and continued on his path towards the capital.
The creatures followed the figure, careful to hide their presence and waiting for an opening to strike. After a few hours of stalking the figure, they were still unable to find an opening.
Unable to bear the hunger, the creatures started to move closer as they followed him.
As the creatures moved closer, they smelt a scent, a scent unlike any human they've every smelled. It smelled inhuman, and closer to
them.
Knowing their mistake, they hurried back into the darkness waiting for another prey to walk by.
The lone figure smiled.
He took out his hand and started to ponder.
How did that old man find out?
