The Growing Shadow
Black Knight's war room.
White King: "If we had lost the Dunlan Fortress, that would have given the Undead a staging ground to attack into the heart of the kingdom."
Knight: "But Mi'lord, what about our outlying posts? Word has come that the Undead or their allies are striking our outposts, and razing them before reinforcements can arrive."
Knight: "The Undead are also ambushing our border patrols. They hid behind trees or boulders and let loose a volley of arrows before swarming the survivors."
White King: "At the moment, we don't have enough forces to protect all our territory at once. We are spread too thin."
White King: "I wish I didn't have to do this, but..." 'Sigh' "Send word for all outlying villages to evacuate towards bigger outposts or fortified towns and have our smaller outposts withdraw to larger garrisons. Also, in areas with Undead activity, patrols must be done on horseback. If there is any trouble, our soldiers must not engage. We can't lose more men to their ambushes."
Knight: "It will be done."
Remember, as a wise man once said: "Nihil Est Quod Videtur"
