The approaching army obviously had dragon knights training, thought Tiamat. As he circled above them in the sky he recognized their riding formation.
All of the men were plainly dressed and devoid of colors so it was hard to tell just which side they represented until the man leading the charge opened his mouth and yelled.
"Campbell! A Campbell!" shouted Torque.
He wanted these cutthroats to know who killed them before he sent them to an early grave.
Torque's sword flashed like quicksilver under the refraction of the glistening noon sun.
He returned to the watchtower to land and told the guards, "not to worry. They are not our enemies."
Tiamat recognized the man he was proud to call friend and ordered the drawbridge to be lowered.
He remembered the first time he met Torque they were both newly made dragon knights fighting in their first crusade on behalf of the dragon King.
