Kypho was feeling numb. His eyes were a half mast when they passed under the arch ceiling of the main gates of the palace. He saw the body of a man that was hanging over there. A shudder passed through him when a drop of Platt's blood fell on his forehead.
The place was dead quiet. The guards who were stationed at the gates were terrified. They checked each and every person who entered the gates. No one had the galls to even look up.
Eltanin had killed Platt after gouging both his eyes. He had said to Fafnir that he was going to make an example out of him and that is what he did. After gouging his eyes, Eltanin clawed his neck and then snapped it horizontally. Platt died instantly. Eltanin asked Fafnir to hang his body at the entrance of the palace gates and circulate in the capital as to what he did.
