Neigh!
Alex turned to his men, whose horses were expressing their discomfort by neighing loudly. He looked at his own horse, which still had a calm state of mind.
The cold northwind of the night tousled Asher's hair, but it brought no stench, causing his brows to knit.
"This slaughter happened not too long ago," he said, peering at the red-skinned humanoid creature in the midst of the dead beasts.
This creature wore black armor and had a massive sword plunged into the ground. The blood of beasts stained the sword, but Asher's keen eyes noticed that all the beasts were killed by that sword, and there was no damage to the creature's armor, so what killed it?
"Your Lordship, that is an abyss creature. The species is called ogres." Alex said solemnly.
Ogres were known for their disaster-level strength and brutality. Not even Orcs were their match when it came to personal strength, and the force Alex felt from this ogre made him feel cautious, even though it seemed to be dead.
