The woman was wild-eyed. She had already been through so much and to have her trip end after being thrown from a boat into the sea didn't help much.
"They came... from everywhere they came!" she muttered.
Others survivors standing nearby chimed in. "Orcs! Goblins! Thousands of them by the looks of it!" Another man stepped up holding his son in his arms. The boy lay limp in his father's arms but alive. "Look what they did to my son!"
The boat stranded out on the sand bar was being offloaded onto the marine craft that went out to rescue them. In all, 250 people had made it onto the 5 fishing boats. The sheer weight of so many people was what caused the boats to sit heavy in the water and run a ground.
"We are from Peda. We jumped into the boats and headed out to sea when the waves of orcs came rushing in. The goblins those little devils, fired flaming arrows at our boats trying to fire our boats and roast us alive!" another man in the group now around Eyvnid said.
