It was never the intention that the small patrol on its way to the Fiery Lands to capture the royal daughters would encounter hostilities during their passage through the mountains.
The Elves and their horses were startled and scattered when a naked white giant appeared before them.
The giant was gigantic and stronger than anything the Elves had ever seen.
From the very beginning, they were no match for what turned out to be excellent warriors.
In no time, the small battlefield was strewn with dead horses and wandering, insane knights.
Only one was still enough in his senses to turn around and flee back to the woods to report what had just happened.
Behind him the white giants were gathering with the objective of leaving the mountains to go and explore civilizations to conquer.
What the knight that was returning to the woods, did not notice was that one of the giants got hurt, and that below his skin there was a biomechanical skeleton. The ones who did notice were dead.
