A man covered in bandages laid upon a lounge chair in the center of a large hall. The doors of the hall swung open and a row of armored soldiers walked in. From their armor, it was clear they were members of the Jade Horde. None of th...

A rock like fence exploded up from the ground to block Black Saber’s view. Strong as he was, there was no way something like that could actually trap or stop him. Sage only used it to buy some time. Whitestaff regained her footing f...
