The scene starts with Khatar and Namato as they have just exited the mirror. The sun starts setting. As they look around they see knights and denizens scattered around the castle wall. Denizens are small white creatures that move fast and use their claws and teeth to attack. They also have long tails that they use to climb and to strangle their enemies as they feast on them. They see fires coming from inside the castle. The castle gate has been smashed open and screams can be heard inside. Khatar and Namato without hesitation enter through the broken gate. As soon as they enter they see many denizens surrounding a small goblin family, with a mother and three children. Namato grabs a sword from the ground and immediately starts attacking the denizens.

  "Khatar teleport them away while I distract them and make sure they aren't hurt" Namato said as Khatar teleports right to them and then makes a window to outside the castle walls, where he takes them. Namato starts slicing them and all of them turn their attention towards Namato. Khatar closes the portal and now Namato is alone with the denizens. He takes a couple steps back to prepare himself for the attack. One of them lunges towards him and he easily dodges it, but another one from behind scratched his left leg. Namato falls to the ground. They start surrounding him and scratching him from every side. One of them starts wrapping their tail around Namato's neck. Then something extremely fast and red starts going through all the denizens. When it gets very quiet Namato tries getting up, trying to figure out what happened. As he looks around a tall woman stands over him, one hand out to help him up but the other hand is controlling a red substance in the air.

  "My name is Evelyn Blackwood, please take my hand" She says with a almost calming voice. Namato takes her hand and gets up. Namato gets a image in his head of the nightmare he had he sees Evelyn dead on the ground next to Khatar. His head starts hurting but quickly goes away as he snaps out of it.

  "Thank you, name is Namato, I assume you are one of those blood witches I have heard about?"

  "Yes, but now that you are safe I need to leave, I still have unfinished business here, goodbye" Evelyn says while walking away. Khatar appears before Namato coming out of a window.

  "Who was that?" Khatar asks Namato as they see her walk away behind a building.

  "She said her name is Evelyn, she seems cool" Namato tells Khatar as they hear footsteps coming from behind them. They turn around but cant seem to figure out where its coming from. The footsteps get louder and louder. With every step the ground starts shaking more and more. The sun is almost completely gone and a deep fog starts rolling in. Then Khatar and Namato see a huge figure through the smoke.

  "Namato you better be ready" Khatar says.

  "Always" The figure starts becoming more visible as they see a enormous Orc approaching them with a giant battle axe that he is dragging across the ground with one hand. Namato's head starts hurting. He starts seeing images of the nightmare. The Orc holding Khatar up in his dream is this one. Namato falls to the ground his head hurting in the confusion. He starts screaming in pain.

  "Namato, Whats wrong?" Khatar says going over to him to see what happened. But as he is checking up on him, the Orc is standing right in front of them. Khatar goes to attack it, but he reopens his arrow wound and with in that split second the Orc smacks him away, sending him flying in to a nearby house. Khatar gets knocked out immediately after the impact. Namato still in agonizing pain, can't help but watch. The Orc picks up his axe getting ready to slam it on Namato. Then a rock hits the Orc on the head. The Orc looks at the person who threw it. It was one of the little goblin kids that they saved with his other two siblings.

  "Don't hurt him!!!" The kid screams. Namato snaps out of the dreams and with that second he plunges his sword in to the Orc. Namato takes a sigh of relief, but he notices it isn't bleeding. The Orc looks back at Namato and he realizes the Orc is already dead. Then the Orc grabs Namato with one hand and starts crushing him. Namato's bones crushing and breaking from the force. Blood spewing everywhere but before he kills him, he looks up.

  "Kubub, Don't kill him yet, He has potential" A ominous woman's voice comes from the fog. He let's go of Namato and starts walking away. Namato falls to the ground barely hanging on to life. The goblin child goes to tend to Namato. Namato passes out due to an extreme amount of blood loss. The goblin kid and his siblings manage to drag both of them out of the castle gates. they take them over to their mother who is badly injured with a cut in her stomach. After a couple minutes of tending to both of them, Khatar wakes up in a daze.

  "Where am I? What happened?" He asks the kid's as he gets up but stumbles back down on the ground from the injuries. Then he sees Namato bloody and battered next to him.

  "The Orc did this to him and then a woman's voice told him to stop, then he left" One of the boys said.

  "I can't fight anymore, Ill make a portal to the farthest point I can right now, then you boys must help us get through it" Khatar said opening another window. The boys drag them through it. Khatar realizes they are not strong enough to fight this force and vows to himself that he must become much stronger to protect Namato and everyone else.

  In a small town not far from Bulltaureau, Beavervue a dwarf is asking for directions.

  "Do you know where I can find Bulltaureau?" The dwarf ask's a person on the street.

  "First of all that place is getting attacked and second of all you seem really drunk and reek of alcohol" The stranger told him as the dwarf lets out a huge burp.

  "You are right, but its so fun to drink" The dwarf takes a bottle from behind his back and starts chugging it.

  "I have no idea where you just pulled that from and quite frankly, I don't want to know" The stranger said to the dwarf. The dwarf just laughed and fell down. When he hit the ground he immediately fell asleep.
