Alithe yelled out for the guards to gather around, his voice snapping with authority.
The guards were quick to respond as they drifted towards Alithe, their movements obedient and disciplined as they gathered in a small circle around Alithe.
They stood in a loose formation, their bodies tense and their attention focused on the person their captain told them to follow, their gazes were sharp and focused, their faces betraying no emotion as they waited for instructions.
It was clear that whatever he was about to say was important and the guards were waiting patiently for his words.
"We will be leaving later this evening because the part of the forest we will be going into is swarmed with day time monsters." Alithe stated, his eyes scanning the crowd before him.
They listened to Alithe intently, their focus on his words and his expression.
