The drums.
Ghan-Buri-Ghan was the first one to hear them. He was old now...a shadow of what he had been-leader of the Druadan. His hair was white now...he spent his days sleeping and staying home. His son ruled now...Kur-Arag-Kad. Ambitious, the boy was...and there was something about him... The drums beat. Ghan stood feebly, and walked toward them slightly, craning his neck to listen closely. A look of fear passed over his face... A dart whistled through the woods. It lodged in the old leader's neck. He fell to the ground, forever silenced.
