Ambush in the eternal vale

from HDK 89 † The Quest for the Chalice of Life by ELYTHERIA

/

lyrics

Shrouded in mist the eternal vale lay before them. The river in its centre ran quietly. The peacefulness of the valley had deceived many travellers before, making them run directly into the ambushes of the mountain goblins.

Thankfully, the monks had urged the company caution when crossing it, a warning they took heed of. They waited until nightfall to cross the valley, staying hidden under low trees at the edge of the vale.

After the sun set, the company moved out, keeping a low profile as they approached the river. Here, they were completely out in the open, risking discovery. Everything seemed to go according to plan, until after the crossing of the river. Lewin urged his companions to silence; his Elvin ears had picked up the sound of footsteps racing towards them from the distance. Within an instant the goblins charged them from all directions.

As flight was hopeless, the company made a stand and immediately fired their arrows towards their attackers. Thanks to the skills of Lewin and Rician they were able to pick the goblins off one by one. When they were close enough for melee fight, there were not many attackers left, yet still the battle was bloody.

The goblins however soon retreated as they weren’t accustomed to such a show of resistance. The company used this chance to escape the scene of battle and headed toward the other side of the valley.

The crossing was complete, now they could concentrate on reaching the highest peak and look for the secret stone door.
