Sacred:The Battle of the Depths of Death
The Battle of the Depths of Death
Once the battle was over, the remaining Garema felt as if they were waking from a terrible dream. They did not understand where all the hatred had come from. They had completely forgotten about the human who was destined to be their new Imperator. Hoxar made the order to seal the gorge to the Depths of Death. The Dwarves used their gunpowder to trigger a landslide and thus the entrance to the abyss was sealed amidst a barrage of horrific screams that reached the surface.
Yet everything that is below the earth attracts the Dwarves. Some suspected that unbelievable wealth lay inside of the Depths of Death. They began to secretly tunnel below the mountain. However, it was not only the Dwarves who were submitted to the whispering of seductive voices. The Dryads also heard whispers in the air: 'The Garema are your enemies' chanted the voices, 'Destroy them.' Even among the Garema talk began anew about the human whose name had caused all this harm.
When the Garema heard about the Dwarves digging below the mountains close to their home, they armed themselves and set off in order to drive the Dwarves away. At the same time, the Dryads were also approaching. And so it was that all three groups faced each other on the very same grounds where the landslide had blocked the entrance into the Depths of Death. When the armies engaged in battle, nobody noticed the solitary human who was watching them from a distance with a faint curl to his lips.
