If this dire situation continued without replenishing their dwindling food

supply, the entire army faced certain doom.

“Land in sight!” The cry echoed across the deck.

provoke its inhabitants, leading to potential hostility and even violent

expulsion.

order. Three thousand elite warriors from Dark Night Island swiftly descended

upon the island, their presence imposing and their actions resolute. The

strength. Three thousand warriors were more than sufficient; even three

hundred would have been more than enough to overpower the island’s

entire armed contingent.
