Tension hung thick in the air, almost suffocating, as Minho's voice broke through the silence.
"Is it just me, or is it looking at us?" His whisper was hoarse, filled with dread, his eyes locked on the hulking Orc General looming in the distance.
"It is looking at us," Reno confirmed, his tone unnervingly calm, though his muscles tensed as if ready to spring into action at any moment.
Kiera, her eyes flicking nervously between the massive green figure and their group, poked Ardiel on the shoulder. "You said you had a plan for this, right?"
Ardiel didn't respond immediately. His gaze was fixed on the Orc General, studying the creature's intense eyes, which seemed to bore into their direction like daggers.
His heartbeat quickened, pounding in his chest, but he forced himself to remain calm.
"N-no, it hasn't seen us yet," Ardiel finally muttered, though doubt lingered in his voice.
