They were moving south away from the spot where Nurias had seen the little beach. Now his vision was focused and set, he did not smell the strange smells from before nor was his eye seeing something that was not there. He took a deep breath, moving quickly directly behind Captain Trusak and the others. In a few moments he could see the tower rising high upon a field of white stone. It was here he could see several other standing stones, but unlike what the Captain had said he believed, Nurias could see why it was that the necromancer was here. Even more so, he could see their enemy high above veiled in a glowing red flame.

They had all stopped just short of the tower.

"See? It's just sitting up there."

Nurias looked around and realized that there were several stones sending energy up into the necromancer.

"Do you not see the standing stones? Do you not see the fact that he is glowing in a red fire?"

"What are you talking about?" Lorlank asked.

It seemed that they could not see what he could see. The fact of this just confused him more at the moment.

"Nurias, if you are not well you should not go about this attack. Give the dagger to me."

Nurias felt a sudden and stark sickness and he simply shook his head.

"I must be the one to do it. I have obtained this and I will finish it."

The Captain continued to stare at him, not blinking with a very peculiar glare.

"Let's get this done. We cannot wait." He tapped one of his men on the shoulder, this one was holding an axe and he then pointed to Lorlank, "You too. You will bring down the tower. I do believe you can get the tower down in one or two swings. The wood seems frail and old. Once we bring down the tower, we will engage it from all sides. It doesn't seem to have any defenders around it. This will be a situation where we either do this fast or we do not walk out of this place.”

"I expect you do your part, Nurias."

Nurias could tell that the Captain did not trust him. It wasn't that he thought he would betray him or something like that but that for whatever reason Nurias was not able to complete his task.

The truth was Nurias wasn't too sure what had happened or why he had seen what he had seen before.

Nurias and Trusak along with the other warriors begin to fan out around the base of the tower, making sure to position themselves in such a way that when Lorlank and the other warrior took down the one leg, the tower would fall between all of them.

Nurias couldn't figure out even what this tower was for, it was a simple wooden structure almost like a watchtower. As he moved along the side with Captain Trusak, he realized that there were strange markings all over it and looking to one of the standing stones off to the side he saw similar markings.
