Crack! Crack!
Thoren had lost count of how many bones he had seen as he ventured deeper into the tunnel. With every step he took, another skeleton was crushed beneath his boots.
They numbered in the thousands, and yet their end was not in sight. He was literally walking on bones.
Though he did not want to think about the endless bones, his thoughts drifted back to them again and again. The deeper he walked, the stronger his curiosity became.
Since this passage was meant for both clans to communicate, why were there only the bones of the Horn Lizard Clan?
If this tunnel truly served as a secret route between the two kings, such a scene should never have existed.
'Is it possible they were killed by the Scorpion Clan?' he thought, narrowing his eyes as he continued walking.
He shook his head.
'If they were killed by them, there would be traces of battle and shattered weapons.' A battle involving so many people could not possibly leave behind only bones.
