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 back everyone. Enjoy and review.

Into Sengann

Kernunnos knocked on the gates of Sengann. They opened and some Labinnac came running out looking at Kernunnos' sideways. This was a common quirk amongst Labinnac, when confused they would look sideways.

"Peace be with you!" said Kernunnos.

A large Labinnac that looked like the result of a mating between person and beast walked towards Kernunnos and looked at his oversized head. "What you want?"

"Food and drink."

"What you?"

"Kernunnos Kernunnos."

The Labinnac placed a hand on his chin. "Kernunnos Kernunnos." He repeated this with uncertainty. The others looked at Kernunnos, gaping at his head, his enlarged feet and right arm. "Kernunnos come in. Kernunnos have food and drink… When sun sets."

"But that long ways away." Commented Kernunnos.

"Kernunnos Kernunnos. Kynrik not know of Kernunnos. Kynrik not allow Kernunnos food and drink earlier if Kynrik not know what Kernunnos are."

Kernunnos gave a grin. It seemed Kynrik had misinterpreted what Kernunnos had said. That was good. "Kernunnos come in?"

Kynrik nodded. "Kernunnos come in."

Kernunnos walked into Sengann, a feeling of dread coming over him as he did. The halls where his ancestors once stood guard against the barbarian hordes was now being used by the same barbarians that his ancestors had stood guard against. This was some terribly cruel sort of irony.

Sengann's days of glory were gone. The majesty of the place was gone and instead all that was left was a horrid squalor of a place, something less than a ruin.

This was not Sengann anymore.

This was not an Evabon fortress anymore.

This was a horrible place that would have made the pit seem nice.
