    **********Leonard cornered Carl after the gathering ended. His finger dug into his shirt and he shoved him against the wall. He shot a ferocious glare, his face a few inches away, his voice dripping vulgarity and venom. "You p*ssy! How the fuck did you know about that!? Who the heck are you?!"

    *********Thrat! Thrat! Thrat!Helicopters descended from the sky, howling the wind dangerously. Not one, not two. But six choppers, bases blinking red into the night like predators on parade death hunt. The helicopters landed in perfect horizontal, on the frontier of Drakhelm city, and the night calmed, heavy with something unknown.The door of five helicopters gilded, hissing into the otherwise quiet night. Shortly, out stepped men, stride calculated, boot thumping loose gravels, leaving unmistakable deep prints in the soil.They're military men; green uniforms that screamed dominance, insignia slapped on their shoulders, demonstrating authority. The men, up to 100 lined in perfect horizontal in front of the last chopper, rifles slung over their shoulder in trained military precision.The door of the last helicopter gilded open and a figure stepped out; Tall, broad shoulder squaring against black long coat that littered with insignias, portraying sovereignty.Commander Victor Dray
