Raids

We reached the first village, and it was little more than the first had been. We tore through it in relatively short time.

Covered in blood we were already tiring as we took over the camp.

Vanquish cleared an area for me to step up.

I gave the same speech I had before. Rallying what was left of the villagers. Adding volunteers to our numbers. I was faintly disappointed when two men refused.

One stepped forward. “If we join you, the NightHunters will kill every one of us.”

“Is that really any worse than them throwing your mothers, sisters or daughters in shacks?” I gestured to one behind the camp. I’d already learned they were customary in NightHunter camps.

They’re the reward for them taking the village. I put together. I was beginning to learn the system the NightHunters alpha used to motivate his wolves.

Find them cruel, reward them for being crueler, make them expand fast and aggressively.
