Khan continued to say a few words as the rain continued to come down. He concentrated as the rain started to come down harder. As it went from a drizzle to a shower to a downpour, he lifted his hands up before he looked down at the encampment, more importantly the ballistas. He clapped and a massive arch of lightening crossed the skies and hit a ballista and arched to the others.

Even at night, there is activity visible through the mist, becoming more apparent as the mist dissipates to be replaced by the pouring rain a rarity on Albish soil. The guards on patrol seem to perk up as the revenant creeps closer there eyes scanning and alert, it appears as though their blood magic gives them some limited night vision, as they are eschewing the use of lanterns or torches, though not enough to see the creature while he is still so distance.
The arch of lighting strikes the first ballista and the wooden contraption is struck and it splinters under the force of the magical lighting, the men near the ballista getting caught in the arch and dropping. However, the arch that Kahn planned though doesn't occur for two reasons. The first is that the ballistas are not clumped together so the distance between each made the second reason more effective. Bloodmagic wards spring to life in response to former Generals attack, the lighting manages to reach a second ballista to much the same effect before glowing runes of crimson power spring to life and snuff it out.
Once of the primary foes of The Blood Revenants are the Fae of The Wylds each member of that ancient race can bring to bear powerful druidic magic and call down the elements to attack. Khan's blast of elemental lighting prove similar enough to these magics to be blocked by the wards after the first hit, while he is outside their circle he can do some damage with elemental magic, and depending on his aptitude with spells he may even be able to tell with some examination that the words would provide little protection against non-elemental magical attacks.
Khan's attack would have an unintended side effect of providing a perfect distraction for The Revenant to sneak into the village. Though if he'd been paying attention he'd know that he will have to carefully hide his presence as it seems that barbarians can smell his similar magic, not enough to pin point him but at this close range enough to put most of them on edge.

(Sorry for the long wait for replies. :( )
The creature moved slowly, but surely through the mists and the shadows; each of which provided him an unnatural camouflage that seemed to make his physical form supernaturally resilient to being seen. It was going to be an interesting evening it seemed, for as he got closer it appeared as though a bolt of lightning gave him the opening he needed to walk right in! How lucky, he thought, for in his arrogance he did not care to know the source of what held the guard's attention.
Should nothing be there to stop him, or there was a clear moment in which he could creep through the perimeter even if that meant going within feet of the guards, then creep he would until inside Beggar's Landing proper. Should he actually succeed at this, he would find himself retreating into the nearest dark alley to ponder his next step.
