A WEEK LATER, MALEVOLENCE SAW THE TALL WALLS OF FERWALL IN THE DISTANCE.
Her army was finally almost near their destination.
For the last week, they have been travelling in disguise—so to speak. This road was patrolled by guards and travelled by traders and farmers from nearby villages that survived despite the harsh circumstances.
Most of the bees hid in the mobile forts when there were humans nearby, with only a few watching from hiding as Ramwill and the recruited mercenaries proved to the guards that they weren't some bandits.
Showing the heads of bandits was good proof. Malevolence ordered to freeze most of them to prevent rotting illnesses from spreading over the army, but a few were kept unfrozen as a demonstration for humans.
(They were absolutely disgusting by now. Malevolence didn't want to even think about them.)
