Word had managed to reach her about a minor zombie problem in the Worde Territory. And while the rest of her comrades were off dealing with monsters in other parts of Lycia, Mila was asked to scout the situation here. The territories closet to Osita were prone to attacks by the un-dead. And she could see it in every little village she passed. The people were terrified. Many villages kept their gates closed and denied access to outsiders. Corpses were burned en mass instead of being buried. The caravan she was riding with were denied entry at many villages until they found one that would let them in. Mila dismissed herself from the caravan and went to the local tavern.The sage entered the tavern hoping to find some information about the monster attacks. She took a seat by the bar and asked a few questions towards the barman.
The mage marked the village of Elmshurst on her map. It was nestled in between the borders of Worde and Thira. Probably closer to Worde if her map was accurate. It appeared to be rather prosperous, as a rest town for traders between the borders. It seemed that this village managed to fortify their walls with spikes. There were some rickety watch towers set up. And the militia looked to be decent. From what she heard the man leading the group was former general of Osita. General Sherman. He was a supposed survivor of the assault. This place might have a chance to survive.. Mila learned that most of the attacks tended to happen at night. It's not every day they get someone coming in asking about monsters. She thanked the tavern owner for the information. Mila paid for a meal of stew, some hot water for tea, and she took a seat at a table by the fire.
"Hmm.. I suppose.. I should arrange a meeting with the general then. Maybe talk to the scouts on the watch tower.." She muttered in a soft voice to herself.
