117 Chapter 117

Darkness came and engulfed the world, but inside the Skalsser Tribe in the central tent where the chief of the tribe resides. Noise of arguments ensued as Xok'nath deal with the elders of the tribe and his rivals as the leader of the tribe.

The central tent was decorated with bones of different creatures. Some of them are huge bones and finely polished till they sparkle like precious gems. In the center of the tent was an enormous skull, which was turned into a table.

The warg riders of the tribe made use of their knowledge about the surroundings and made it past the Verakhs who were watching them in the shadows. They split into many smaller groups to confuse those who were monitoring them. The unseen flying bolts from the dense cover of the thickets and treelines wounded the unlucky ones. Those who made it safely through the encirclement of the hidden hunters arrived at the hills where they could make a silhouette of a camp.
