Garlick Woodsborn smiled to himself as he followed his trio of trainees down the long staircase towards the base of the Spire of Mirabel. Technically, he was supposed to be guarding the rear, but after this afternoon, there wasn't anything above them more dangerous than a few songbirds.
Gar had been asked by guard captain Thorbrand to lead his most promising recruits to the spire, and offer whatever guidance he felt appropriate in their mission to clear out a flock of stirges that had taken up residence on the upper floors. Stirges, bat like creatures with needle sharp beaks, were a moderately dangerous to a man caught unawares, as their saliva somehow prevented wounds from healing. A flock of over a hundred like the one the group had just dealt with, that could leave desiccated corpses littering the countryside in short order.
