The Deathlord of Ixia

61

Using the Brotherhood Spell Sense Evil you focus on the encroaching mist and detect a strange presence. You cannot discern exactly what is moving out there, but you are certain of one thing: it is evil and it is drawing ever closer to Fort Azgad.

You warn Captain Lanza and at first he does not believe you. He chuckles, saying that it is not uncommon for new arrivals to imagine they have seen all manner of spectres in the sea mists which swirl around the fort. But then a loud, discordant bell rings out from above, and Lanza’s face is transfixed with shock.

‘By the gods!’ he splutters. ‘It’s the alarm bell—we’re under attack!’

Turn to 181.
