Horizon of Darkness

The negotiations with the bandits didn't go well, but the mercenaries were prepared for this and had already surrounded them. Radiel, in the form of a Child of Nightmare, gripped the necroguitar more firmly. Let the deadly performance in honor of the dark god begin! The beast's face on the necroguitar's fretboard glowed with a devilish light. Its fiery gaze pierced through space, forcing the bandit with the halberd to instinctively cover his eyes with his hand, while at the same time, Nikta's dagger and Zeikin's axe flew towards him. Another bandit, under pressure from the mercenaries, fell into the fire with a cry, scattering smoldering logs – not the best place to fall. However, he didn't have to burn for long – the heart-wrenching chords of the Nightmare echoed in his head as if the performer had played them directly into his ear, silencing him forever. While the swordsman shook his head in confusion, trying to recover after Joe hit him with a bottle, his comrade crushed the head of the third bandit with a club – Lin's smile clouded his mind. After the swordsman fell from the axe blow, he was left alone and eventually surrendered, ending the battle. The sounds of battle faded, but the skeleton still lazily strummed the strings, watching as one of Joe's bottles rolled into the bushes. Another victory for the Claws! It would be good to celebrate this in their own way, but first, they should return to the city.
