Adam and the rest stood in the clearing, gazing in the direction in which they had come from, their faces filled with fear and panic.
In the distance, an enormous storm of dirt and dust rose through the expanse of the trees and into the night sky, blotting out the twin moons.
The ground beneath their feet quaked and the sound of deep thundering filled the air.
Adam's back was drenched in cold sweat as he gazed at the dust storm. From the look of it, something massive was coming their way.
He couldn't help but blurt out in shock, "Not again!"
The group's journey so far had been quite harmless. But for the first time since they'd ventured so far into the depths of this ominous region, they felt that they were actually in the Murky Mountains!
"W-What is that?!"
"No way!"
"I-It's so huge!"
The dwarves, Farald, Balron, and Durgin were trembling in their boots. Even their Blue Boars standing beside them were shuddering in fear.
