Your killing blow punctures the warhound’s heart and the beast howls pitifully before collapsing in an untidy heap at the bottom of the stone steps. As you leap over its twitching body, you hear the sound of footfalls coming from the balcony above. Moments later, two Drakkarim warriors appear. They are armed with spears and have been alerted by the yelps and growls of the Akataz. When they see their pet lying dead on the ground, they bellow with rage and come charging down the stairs towards you.
