His blood streamed down and mixed with the sand.

He muttered to himself as his eyes began to close. He could feel his body begin to grow numb.
And then the system sent a notification.
The courtyard of the fortress was now quiet. It wasn't robbed in the darkness, as it was hours before this encounter. Two bodies lay in their own pool of blood. Some of the blood had already dried up on the courtyard floor, while some had dried up on their skin.
From the path through which the fortress had been broken into, the rays of the sun were able to stretch into the courtyard. From that path, some beings walked in. Their eyes widened as they saw the scene before them.
Their bodies were no different from those who lay on the floor. They had cuts and bruises. With blood here and there smeared on them.
As they came, they approached the bodies, checking to see if they had survived or not.
"He seems to be alive," Renjiro said as he checked for a pulse on Zuberi's neck.
