The sun was rising over the ocean, its dull light sparkling off the waves. Morning was still far off, but a tiny piece of red was showing on the horizon. The heat of the Alternian sun was already scorching.
Most trolls were already asleep by now, but not all of them.
A single troll stood on a rock that stuck up from the water, staring towards the light. It was just bright enough to sting her eyes, but she didn't care.
She watched impassively, a slight smile quirking her lips. The light didn't bother her at all. She smiled, revealing sharply pointed fangs.
Tomorrow would be a very good night.
