LOCATION: PLANAX VILLAGE
'Dugdugdugugudgudugdug' looking from afar, you will thought a sandstorm is coming heading straight to the village. The ground is shaking violently like there is an earthquake. Karsus, the head guard of the village sound the alarm when he noticed the accumulation of dirt that is heading its way to the village and prepare his men from possible assault.
As it gets closer, Karsus noticed that someone is in front of the dust running from the moving dust. Looking closely, he sees that behind are horde of 4-legged monster resembling a cow ( or rather called Kawkaw!) is chasing someone in front.. As it get closer and closer, he recognized a familiar face from the village and finally recognizes who he is.
"Aaargh! %#^$^#$# .Crap, not again. Okay, everyone form a shield wall now!",Karsus grunted, "and make a way for that boy!" Karsus added.
"aha, hah hah... Please make it.. please run as fast as you can.... you can do it.... Almost there... almost there..... Here we go... I'll show you who is a better runner, the fastest of them all... c'mon.... here we go.... You're almost there Julius, wahhhhhhh! Heeeeeeelp meeeeee fatheeeeer!", Julius shouted.
As soon as Julius passes the warriors, Karsus shouted to the army,"PREPARE FOR THE IMPACT!"
'Buuggssshhhh, Boom! Boom! clang!, clang!, clang!', a loud sound erupted upon clashing on the shield wall.
"Ngarrrk, Ngaaark", several Kawkaw stumbled upon impact from clashing, despite being low level monsters yet feared by locals because of its aggressiveness and are quite violent.
"Now lets prepare for our tonight's meal! Everyone 'FORWARD TRUST'!",Karsus screamed.
'Tsuk, Tsuk Tsuk!', one by one, Kawkaw fell down. For these men, this events are somehow ordinary. From time to time, many monsters tries to attack the village looking for prey. Some are strong, mostly are weak. But over time, they quickly adapt and manage to repel any monster coming by.
