Chapter 103 Death Has No Mercy

• THE AUTHOR'S POV.
• As the afternoon sun faded the trees stood tall and silent their shadows long. As it rustled through the leaves a soft breeze made the woods quiet and very peaceful.The tranquility of the forest was almost too serene. Del Morino's mother's pack was quite far but it would have been an estimated three days to get there if the weather didn't misbehave and then it rains heavily. Though rumours had it that the southern border had been blocked by fallen trees following the last storm and so travellers had been warned of going through that part and also it had been a place of meetings for rogues, wolves and thieves.
• In their black uniforms which blended in with the woods, six guards rode warily along the narrow path. They stood on either side of a lady dressed in royal blue with her hood drawn over her head and her body elegantly sitting inside a cart, her eyes peeking out, observing.She appeared to anyone seeing her to be noble—important, reserved and esteemed.
