Chapter 2.
Wanderings.
Cuexotl. Four days later.
No-Char had wandered the ruined city for the last few days. He had given calling out long ago and had resigned himself too being alone. On his wandering he had found the armory and he now had a Saurus shield and blade strapped too his back. He managed too find the spawning pools of the worker and found that the deepest one had fifteen centimeters of sacred water in it. This was no-where near enough too spawn a Skink, let alone a Krixgor. He had now finished wandering the entire city. Nothing else was found except maybe a few skeletons, both Skinks and beast.
No-Char wandered back down the steps of the largest pyramid. If he wasn't a lizard man he would've cried but Saurus warriors cannot show emotion besides anger and rage. As he wandered down his foot knocked something over. Looking down he saw a pair of buckets. Then looking up he saw the shallow spawning pool. Then he did the most un-Saurus like thing. He thought, not of war, or combat, or of tactics but of an idea.
Picking up the buckets he increased his walk too a fast gait which he skillfully traversed the temple city until he found what he was looking for. The tunnel entrance too the spawning pool of the soldier, a few minutes later he emerged with the buckets full. He had taken them from the spawning pool of the soldiers and he intended too place them in the spawning pool of the worker. He carefully poured them in and returned too the other pools too gather more Sacred spawning water.
By nightfall the water in the spawning pool was at least one meter high. The Saurus stood guard by the pool and waited for the spawning. A pair of yellow eyes flicked open in the pond and a creature, smaller than a Saurus pulled itself from the pool. Its body, limbs and face were those of a skink but his had the crest and scales of a Saurus. It stood on the ledge of the spawning pool and looked from left too right. It sniffed the air and looked at No-Char. In the barks and Chirps of the lizard men it said
I am Heoxtol, first of the new spawning.
No-Char nodded solemnly at the creature and replied.
I Am No-Char. Saurus. City… Alone.. Dark.
The skinkish creature looked at No-Char confused.
I will try too find out what happened here. The Scriptures may give us some clues.
The Skink leapt down and began too run towards the temple of records. The run was odd as he was still unsure on his feet but he reached it swiftly. No-Char Stood guard by the pool too direct any new skinks that spawned.
Fifteen miles east of Cuexotl.
Kirendrin Dark-blade grimaced as he and his dark elf raiders cut their way into the dense jungle of the Southlands. This was his sixth expedition into this pitiful continent. They had sailed up the forked river and were now making their way too the city known as Cuexotl by foot. He had with him fifteen crossbows, ten spearmen and three witch elves. Apparently the city was abandoned apart from a few skinks and it shouldn't be a hard fight also it has never been touched by raiders before thus leaving plenty of loot too take back too Naaggaroth. So far only six of his men had been killed. Two witch elves were eaten by what appeared too be a huge crocodile and four of his spearmen had succumbed too a sickness and they died early in the expedition
There you go a nice cliffhanger. Dark elves are coming a new spawning has been created. And what did happen to the city?
P.S im thinking about calling the spawning Skarus. What do ya think?
