Fractured Kingdoms; Intruders
Snowflakes drifted aimlessly by. Tegid kicked at the ground. It wasn’t so much out of frustration, but it was just past morning and already felt like a long day. He and his human friend, Tyron, were parcel carriers. They had set out from Camp Uskitan at dawn and were crossing vast fields of snow on their way to Nutromiv.
Rumors were spreading in regards to the recent raids along the mountain side. Primarily coming from the North Western borders of Melikroth, which is exactly where the friends were headed now. Thus far it hadn’t been anything too detrimental, but the raids were often targeting Melikroth’s crops. And those were scarce enough as it was. Neither Tegid nor Tyron had gave these problems much thought. As of yet they hadn’t been directly affected and figured their higher ups would handle the dilemma soon enough- They always did.
A subtle sound came from somewhere nearby. A sound that contradicted the rhythmic shuffling of the mailmen’s steps. It could have been disregarded as a rabbit, a thrush, or another animal of that sort. But this was something larger, and Tyron’s ears perked up at the sound. He signaled to Tegid and strayed away from the small cart he had been pulling. He jerked his gaze to the right just in time to watch a flurry of snow flung into the air as something jumped behind a nearby tree.
“Halt!” He shouted.
A figure emerged from behind the tree and quickly rushed away from Tyron's voice. He was a dash of blue, starkly contrasting the otherwise monotone landscape.
"By Frost!" Tegid stared in shock, "That was a blasted Albornian!"
