I appeared at the edge of the forest overlooking an army.
Raylon stepped forward and shouted, "Moao! You have been found guilty of committing horrendous malicious deeds which have taken the lives of many and disrupted the harmony of the continent. The penalty for this is death. If you want to defend yourself to avoid this penalty, announce your sins and surrender yourself."
I ignored him and glanced around the group searching. I heard a weak bark and turned to see the wolf at my left laying on the ground badly beaten. I rushed over to him, "Little wolf? What happened?"
The wolf trembled as it glanced at me with moist eyes. He turned his head and I followed his line of sight.
My eyes shrank back as pure terror seized my throat.
It felt as if someone had taken a hammer and shattered my soul into pieces.
