Hold the Wall at Night's Gate
Read Aloud
Smoke blasts across the wall as the siege engine burns beside the breach. A vrock drops onto the battlement with a wet scream, dretches clawing up through the crack while cult skirmishers race the edge and stab at anyone who hesitates. The stone underfoot is splitting, the chains are swinging, and the sky is open above Drakespire.
