At Eoghan's Feet

Ciaran hung back, waited till Eoghan, Odran and Dolan had a head start. Then he turned and looked at the swarming monsters clambering over the bodies of their fallen comrades. Brenna pulled up beside him, sword dripping with gore and blood.

“Do it,” she said.

Ciaran flung a hand toward the bodies, and as one,they burst into flame, formed a wall of fire. Some of the men couldn’t stop charging in time and ran into the heat, began to scream.

Brenna grabbed his hand and took off running.

They reached the cliff and scrambled up - right to Eoghan’s feet.
