Dawn of the Ash Tower

On the top of the Dragon's Back, the first night of the arrival of the gray-robed man who called himself Cheese

"I don't quite understand what you mean, what's coming?" Commander Jon frowned and asked.

"It's coming, it's coming. As for what it is, you will know it when you see it. I don't see the situation in the south very clearly now." Cheese said while chewing on the deer leg.

"Excuse me, but there is no basis for your statement," said the old commander.

"Ah, that's why the teacher said it was too much effort to communicate with these people." Cheese said and took a sip of ale, "Okay, gentlemen, who will give me a map of the area south of Longji Mountain?"

After receiving the approving look from Jon, the herald who followed took out a map of the north drawn on sheepskin.Of course, the northernmost place on the map is only as far as the Longji Mountains.The old commander simply chose the largest table at the beginning, and several soldiers hurriedly moved the things on the table to make room for a map.

"Hi, well, let me take a look." Cheese hiccupped, stood up and looked at the map.Although the gray-robed man had already drank almost an entire oak barrel of ale, the old commander could swear to Longjishan that he didn't see the slightest hint of drunkenness from this man's eyes, and his stomach didn't even bulge at all. Everything I ate went to that dimension.

"Hmm..." Cheese looked at the map, and a faint red light began to flash in his black eyes, but the people around only thought it was the reflection of the fire in the fireplace, and didn't care.

After a while, the commander was about to think that the mysterious man was in a daze.Cheese spoke, he raised a hand, pointed to an area on the map, and asked.

"where is this place?"

"The Earl of Saron. The only way to the Dragon's Back Mountain." The old commander said.

"It is also the only way out of Longji Mountain to the south." Cheese continued his words.

"So, where is the problem? The Saron family has ruled that land for nearly five generations. They are respectable nobles and benevolent lords. It is impossible for them to attack us. Our relationship has always been very good." Jon said .

"No, no, my dear Commander, the threat does not come from living people. I don't care who the lord of this land is, or whether it is respectable or not. Now, they are all finished. Together with the people on this land Everything together, it's over." Cheese said and raised his hands to make an exaggerated gesture of emphasis.

"And right now, if you don't take precautions, what killed that land will die here."

"Sir, this is not ridiculous." The old commander said seriously.

"I'm not telling a joke." Cheese said.

"If I hadn't watched you come from the north, I would have taken you for a madman."

"I wouldn't have said these things to you if you hadn't invited me to this meal."

"I need evidence," Jon said.

"Ah, evidence, you know, Mr. Commander. If everything in this world pays attention to evidence, then the prophet will not have to eat." Cheese rolled his eyes, "We live in a weird world, please Don't take everything too seriously."

"Listen, Mr. Cheese, maybe you have your channel, but based on your one-sided words, it's hard for me to convince my subordinates. What's more..." The commander stood up and looked down at the gray-robed man.

"What's more, I'm just an unknown stranger who just came here tonight. However, Mr. Commander, if I were you, I would at least send some cavalry or something to see that earldom. Then, you Will come to me again." Cheese said with a smile, and then bit a piece of venison fiercely.

"Well, sir, whether what you said is true or not, I will thank you for your suggestion. It's getting late today, so I won't disturb your rest. Elsa, give this gentleman a guest room." The old commander said After finishing, he put on the cloak handed by his subordinates, and left the tavern with the frost guards.

"Look, great people have never been understood by fools." Cheese sighed after the frost guards left.

"Perhaps that's because those great men never tried to explain what they said," said the proprietress, Elsa.Because of the gray-robed man, she didn't need to do business tonight, but as a family member of the Frost Guard, she also knew the legend about the gray-robed man.Therefore, this young lady is still very curious about cheese.

In all fairness, Cheese Chief, who took off his hood, is quite suitable for the audience. Although his eyebrows are not as gentle as those of the nobles in the south, they are also a little less rough than the northerners.The most interesting thing is his complexion. The complexion of this gray-robed man is not like any race Elsa has ever seen. His pale yellow skin is healthier than the white skin of ordinary people. His black hair and eyes are also very attractive to the proprietress. A rare appearance.In short, it should be said to be full of exotic customs, Elsa concluded in her heart.Maybe people in the north of the mountain are like this?

Cheese listened to what the proprietress said, thought about it, and suddenly laughed.

"Hey, it does seem to make sense. But wouldn't it be boring to talk about everything?" He said, drinking the last sip of wine, "To those dogs!"

"What dog?" asked the proprietress.

"Um, trust me, you still don't know." Cheese shrugged and said.

"Okay, mysterious Mr. Cheese, if you finish your meal, please come and see your room with me." The proprietress said, making a gesture of invitation.

"Ah... Actually, you don't have to be so polite. I'm really not a nobleman. Your attitude makes me very uncomfortable." Cheese said with a wry smile.

"Well, then your room is the third one on the left here, go by yourself. I'm going to wash the dishes." The proprietress said with a smile after hearing what Cheese said.

"Eh..." The proprietress' reaction made Cheese not know how to deal with it for a while, and he froze in place.

"What are you still doing in a daze? Are you going to help wash the dishes?" The proprietress said angrily with her hands on her hips.

"Ah, okay, I'm leaving now." So, just like this, this mysterious visitor, who made the entire Frost Guard Legion in awe, was coaxed into the room by the proprietress of Dragon's Back with such a confused face. .

"The teacher is right, female human beings are really terrifying existences." After closing the door, Cheese patted his chest with lingering fear.

At this time, the proprietress in the lobby had already lost her temper with laughter, so I will not mention it for the time being.

Looking at the crude room of about six square meters with only one bed, the gray-robed man smiled self-deprecatingly, and a strong red light burst out from his two eyes.

"But it's always a good start, don't you think?"

Outside the window, snowflakes the size of a human head hit the small town under the night under the agitation of the strong wind.Cheese looked at the black and white world outside through the window, with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

He took out a red chalk-like thing from his robe and quickly drew a few symbols on the door and windows, after checking that the warning runes were indeed working.He opened his hands and chanted a spell in a low voice, and soon, a black light appeared between his open hands.

"...in the name of the deep void, in the name of the bottomless abyss, open my way! (Unknown)"

With the final chant, the black spot of light expanded rapidly, turning into a black space gap two meters high and one meter wide, which suddenly appeared in the center of the room.Cheese nodded and strode into the gap.
