The monsters' offensive was dismantled.
However, the panic they caused will take some time to dissipate.
General Andresha, with a sword at her side, walked steadily along the walls of Winterwolf Fortress. As she inspected the defensive line after the battle, the scene before her made her frown deeply.
Those blood-red giants, whose origins were unknown, did not set foot into the fortress. The valiant Typhon soldiers repelled those dreadful enemies from the walls. However, the monsters' fearless charge and strange corrosive destruction left a lingering sense of dread. Large marks caused by corrosive energy arrows were everywhere on the walls. Soldiers hit directly by these arrows either died miserably or were severely injured. Ordinary metal armor offered almost no protection against this bizarre attack. It seemed only enchanted or Mage metal armor could effectively resist the monsters' assaults—but how many in the entire army could afford a full set of magical armament?
