"Halt! no one is allowed on this road. Turn around or die."
"Wait!! I am a weaponsmith, I heard there was someone on this mountain that would be interested in my wares."
"Who sent you here?"
"As a weaponsmith, I have learned not to take sides or to name names, its bad for business. I have some really fine weapons, the likes of which you've never seen."
"We could use some better weapons, verywell, Demiti, go ahead and tell the archers we are escorting her up the hill."
As I moved forward with the cart the skeletons fell in behind me. Everyone was trying to be as quiet as mice, but on the rutted tract it was difficult to maintain their balance. Stalker was getting more and more aggitated and was growling low in his throat.
"That cat better not make any sudden moves or I will cut him and his nine lives to ribbons." The skeleton closest to Stalker said upon hearing his growls.
"Oh, he wouldn't hurt a fly, he's probably just complaining that his feet hurt. Afterall, my pet is getting old. Baby, come on up here and ride by MaMa the rest of the way. There isn't that better?"
When Stalker jumped up by me I gave him the hand signal to be quiet. Then I pretended to reach out to pet him, but actually I put my hand behind the seat to warn the others we were getting close.
We rounded the last curve and I pulled the wagon into the center of a clearing. What luck, everyone was gathered to see my weapons including Nomed, and on top of that, they had set their weapons aside in anticipation of getting their hands on the new ones.
Jumping down from the wagon I started toward the back as if preparing to unload my wares, but when I reached the back I pulled the cord dropping the cover.
Stalker gave a ROAR and lept on one of the skeletons as Azuni Jumped out of the wagon with his mighty Axe of Fortitude. Skyline got three with one spear and even with a bad leg Drake was in the middle of the mayhem. Grabbing my bow I was firing two arrows at a time when I noticed Nomed heading for one of the tents with Azuni close behind.....
