Under the dark skies.
A warship with black sails entered the river of the island from the sea. Soran was very patient and waited until dark to quietly approach the territory of the aboriginal tribes. This time, he didn't bring many men out. Even with the drow warriors, there were only 121 men in total. Most of the pirate minions stayed in the camp. To achieve a surprise attack, there must be few people and a strong fighting force. Only elite troops could catch them by surprise.
The night was deep.
Soran and his men disembarked 10 kilometers away from the tribe. The distance was just right; it wasn't too close to alert the enemy nor was it too far. This time, most of Soran's men were strange looking. They were either scarred on the face, or piercings on their ears; some of them were even covered with strange tattoos. More than 70% of the pirates were fierce-looking. There was no doubt that they were the elites who had survived the countless battles.
