The blizzard howled, a churning maelstrom of white and gray that swallowed all sound and sight. Visibility was a cruel joke, barely reaching 20 feet before the thick, whipping snow rendered everything an indistinguishable blur.
Despite the blinding conditions, almost all the units had successfully arrived at their designated positions. A few teams were nestled on the top of the lower keep, right below the wide, snow-choked path leading to the town.
Another three units, including Elria's, were positioned above them, right at the entrance of the mid-keep or the town. Only two units remained unaccounted for: Baron Nusayel's and the Captain's.
A heavy, undulating mass of snow draped over the path, making it impossible to see beyond the immediate drifts, further obstructing any already non-existent view of what lay to either side or ahead.
