Exodus Of The Xandim (GOLLANCZ S.F.) - Plot & Excerpts
He had killed – and almost been slain himself – on a number of occasions, yet he had never witnessed anything like the scenes of horror he was seeing now. He and Kaldath had finally reached Eliorand and come riding down like an avenging storm, with the spirits of the Dwelven seething and snarling at their heels. Already the streets were crowded, for the Phaerie, alarmed by the commotion that was taking place around the stables beyond the city walls, had come rushing out of their homes to find out what was happening. A great roar came from the Dwelven spirits at the sight of their ancient foe; their slayers of old. Overtaking Taine and his companions, they came smashing down like an avalanche, spreading out across the city, tearing and ravening wherever they went. In mere moments, it seemed to the horrified watchers, the streets were awash with blood and littered with the dismembered bodies of Phaerie dead. Screams and howls rent the air as Hellorin’s people fled hither and thither in mindless terror, fruitlessly seeking to escape.
