Sacred:Times Change in Menelgond

Times Change in Menelgond

The Dryads had withdrawn into their forests and prepared themselves for a battle. While waiting vigilantly for Anducar's arrival they braced themselves in preparation for the worst. They did not notice the shadow sneaking among them. Anducar had not summoned any creatures; instead he had crept straight into their ranks. He investigated their defensive measures and counted their number, but he did not attack them.

Anducar lurked in the shadows, scanning the forest folk until he found the strongest Dryad warrior. With three Subkari already chosen, now was the time to bring the fourth and last one into this world. Alas! the Dryads noticed the presence of Anducar too late and could only watch in terror as the last of the Demon Lords was created. Ninocaur was the name of this new Subkari. The Dryads regained some composure and were ready to fight, but Anducar and Ninocaur simply vanished before their eyes.

Anducar could have defeated the Dryads with the aid of his Demon Lords, yet he chose to let them live. Perhaps they might be useful to him some time in the future. He summoned creatures of darkness to besiege the Dryads in their forest. Some day Anducar would decide how he would use them. Now the time had come to leave Menelgond — a land cursed with decay.
