Dalv and Kanute

by Jet556

Sengann Fortress was once an Evabon fortress built to protect Evabon lands from the Labinnac hordes. Now Labinnac dwell in the fortress and so it is that Dalv and Kernunnos with the help of another Evabon named Kanute continue the search for the abducted Henti and Brigid.

Welcome everyone. This arc continues and will conclude in the next story. Enjoy and review.

The Walls of Sengann

Dalv, Kernunnos and Kanute all circled the walls of Sengann Fortress. They were tall and there were about four towers at each corner: guard towers. The fortunate thing was that since the Labinnac had taken over the fortress they wouldn't really use the towers. Give a Labinnac an arrow, they won't take it to a bow but use it as a knife. If they were to be given a gun, they'd probably use it as a club.

"Are you two sure this is the place?" asked Kanute.

"It must be!" Dalv pointed at a window above one of the walls. "If we could get in there we could probably look around the fortress."

"Kernunnos not jump that high."

"Of course you can't, Evabon our size can't jump that high and such giants are a thing of the past." Kanute sighed. "And I doubt we will be allowed to just walk in for kitchen scraps."

"Wait a minute, Zuvowang told us that Inge, the son of Albalonga's previous chieftain, abducted Henti and Brigid for ransom." Dalv pointed at the Labinnac all standing tall and straight with a spear in their hands, only looking forward with their unmovable necks. "When have Evabon and Labinnac ever worked together?"

"Labinnac not know how get in fort." Commented Kernunnos. "When they ever stay still like 'civilized' guard?"

Dalv nodded in agreement. "Yes, the concept of the door in very much alien to them."

"The gate even more so." Added Kanute.

"Someone whip them shape." Kernunnos pointed at the Labinnac on the wall. "They so high up they not even hear us. They fall they dead before they hit ground."

"Lets not test that theory." Kanute spat at the walls. "Labinnac might not be smart but if we were to trick them all to jump off the others would know something is up and they'd start searching for us."

Dalv shook his head only to look at Kernunnos. Suppose Labinnac would not recognize Kernunnos as an Evabon because of his deformities? Kernunnos did not even raise an eyebrow. He merely stood there looking back.

Now, here was a plan.
