Kyle and Michael traveled back to Starkhold over the next couple of hours.
More words had been spoken at the start of the journey than at the end.
During their journey, they avoided traveling through the towns and cities.
After all, Kyle was carrying a mangled corpse. There would be too many questions.
As soon as they reached Starkhold's western gate, the guards immediately narrowed their eyes and approached Kyle.
"Kyle, what happened?" one of them asked.
"Got attacked by a Late Knight," Kyle said. "Barely anyone survived. Someone else is involved in the attack as well, but I will talk with my Chief first."
Usually, when something like this happened, the person immediately had to tell the nearest guard.
"Go ahead!" the other guard said. "I hope they will execute that other guy!"
Luckily, Kyle was very well known amongst the guards of the city.
Kyle walked through the city with the corpse, eliciting several shocked glances from the citizens.
