The Vitalis Chronicles: Steps Of Krakador - Plot & Excerpts
ANDERS KEATON EXPLAINED AS THE TRUCK ROLLED CLOSER TO THE DEFENSES. “The Magi didn't raise cliffs across it, but pushed them out into the ocean and then raised them up onto shore at an angle until they came within a few hundred yards of each other. From the beach to the top of the slope it's roughly a half mile, but from the entrance of the cliffs out at sea it's almost two.” “You've been there before?” Saltman asked from the driver's seat. “I've just read about them. No one's actually manned them in decades.” “So what are the defenses that everyone talks about then?” “They're basically reinforced artillery bunkers, designed to shield the gun crews while they unload on the boats and soldiers below. They ring the cliffs all the way out into the water.” “And that's where the Demon invaded?” “His admiral had no choice. The Magi could see where he was headed and opened the way for him there so he wouldn't even try going anywhere else. I don't think the monsters he had on board exactly kept well at sea, and he probably didn't know just how bad the snare was.”
