One of many mountain passes within the mountain range, dangerous to travel, but necessary to successfully travel by land. Who knows what you may find here or encounter?
In the distance, Eva could probably hear the death howls of the mountain lion while the cheer of men can be heard. The marching of feet against the stony ground could be felt of a good few dozen men. They bantered and bickered with one another, there armor and weapons clanking around as they move.

As they move around the corner in view of Eva, it would become apparent that these “men” were skeleton soldiers! Clad in various degree of armor, they seem like a militia with tattered chainmail and gambeson being there armor while most carried spears, some carried swords but all had small shields except one which was a skeleton sergeant that carried a large wooden shield and his armor was most intact and carried a spear. Upon spotting Eva, they all stopped and stared at the blind woman.

They bickered to one another “What shall we do? Mistress told us to stay away from mortals…here’s one now, what do we do?” Are the various questions they were asking themselves till one from the back yelled “She can be one of us! Let’s rip her bones out!” Which spurred the rest into action as they cheered in approval, the skeleton sergeant tried to stop them but it was too late and the few dozen skeleton warriors came charging at Eva!

Though thanks to the narrowness of the pass, only a few in front at a time but still outnumber her by quite a bit.
The skeleton squad continued to rush towards her, stumbling and bumping into each other thanks to the narrow past. “We rip out her bones! Offer her bones to the mistress!” Some cried out within the horde. “Tan her skin to fix our armor!” Another cries out but this only vigored the rest as they cried out in celebration which only motivated them more as they slowly were catching with the blind woman.

If Eva was perceptive, she would feel or hear the hooves of a horse coming towards her fast. The sound of armor also coming from the same direction from where the horse was coming from as the skeleton company continued to get close, throwing some spears and swords at her.
