[The first live feed of the field of thorns pans slowly from one side of the front to the other. The twisted brambles extended as far back as one could see. ]
So this is what everyone has been talking about. The soldiers here asked me not to get too close but…
[Eagle glances around, making sure those soldiers are out of sight, before walking carefully over to the wall of thorns in front of him. At this closer distance it was possible to see just how thick the vines were. It was very dark between the twists of plant and there was nothing much that could be seen in the dense tangle besides more vines and more thorns. ]
These plants don’t seem openly hostile.
[As if proving the point Eagle places a hand on one of the plants, between the stickers so as to not get jabbed by the thorns and the plant doesn’t react at all. ]
But, I have been told that if they are attacked they will retaliate.
[So, he might as well give that a try as well? He did want to see what would happen if the vines were cut with a sword. At first the hacking resulted only in the plant in front of him being damaged but, just as the soldiers had warned, it did eventually lash out to try and end the assault with a speed uncommon in most plants. If Eagle hadn’t been ready to leap out of the way he might very well have lost that sword of his to the thorns. ]
It is actually pretty fast!
[Just as quickly as it was damaged the thorns grew back to fill in the gap Eagle had just made until it looked like nothing had happened there at all. ]
No wonder they are making so little progress against it.
[Eagle smiles at the orb. ]
There you have it. If anyone was curious about the thorns that is all I have been able to discover about them so far.
