Lone Surviver
Hiedi slowly limped into the vales and collapsed. Dirty and wounded she had little energy left to even speak. alistra rushed to her side and scooped the little halfling up taking her to the house and to a warm bed to sleep the night.
When Hiedi woke up she still seemed in shock. Alistra as she soothed the poor girl got something of a story from her though how true it was she didnt know.
The small group that guarded the fort with the large portal inside were suddenly attacked by an over wehlming force of undead Agularous and the band defended the gate while the strange skeletons with standard plate armor and haliberts attacked it. Then the Doom Knights came and forced them back to the door. As they were starting to loose hope two new forces came to their aid. A demon elf black and in green armor started cutting though the doom knights ranks. The Elf used magic making the ground tremble under the undead ranks. The undead seemed to know this demon elf much like the one that attacked the fort before. They fell back before the gate.
As the undead fell back Arrows started to assail their ranks. Another elf maiden had shown up one with viloet eyes and golden trussles going down to the middle of her back. She seemed to have a faint golden like glow around her and her arrows were instintly killing all undead in her path.
The two made it to the gate and all grew quite for a few minutes. They looked at eachother strangely almost menacingly. There seemed to be some form of hated in eaches eyes. Agularous came up to them and bowed but as he did The dragon broke though the trees.
The draco-lich rushed the gate as the three turned to defend it. Agularous told us to leave find a safe place.
As we got to the forest Skeletal archers assulted us eveyone fell but me. I hid and watched the battle. The three fought valiently for the gate each biteing the dragon in their own way. The Elf maiden threw spell and used her bow while the Demon elf cut deeply into the creatures bone body. Agularous did his part too.
Hails of arrow started to come down on the three. The first to go down was the Elf maiden Pierced by near a dozen arrows she fell trying to string the Dracolich one last time. Then The dragon breathed its deadly breath on the remaining two Agularous went down completely disintigrated. The Demon elf was the last to stand. She called earth elementals and others to her side yet the combined forces were too much for her she dropped to her knees a the dragon biting her head off. The lichs that followed cheered and the Undead went into the fort.
I stayed hidden under a log until nightfall so i could make my escape. Before I left Strange Women on Winged horeses came. The undead watched them but did not attack. Each maiden picked up one of the bodies Put it on her wing horse and took off twoard the west.
Niombi Matron of the Tansu family meditated in the family circle. Keeping the circle atunned was an important ritual of any Samurai family. She quitely went into a deep meditation feeling the power and honor of her ancestors. The cumalitive acts of them had made this circle very powerful. It was all she could do not to get lost in the elemental vortex that formed within her mind.
As she came back to reality, she looked across the valley . Lichs and other undead were moving south along with a large army. She gritted her teeth the Army was from Rock point by the organization and field banners within the army. She rushed home and collected her arms. Stepping out the door she told Ricknal to mind the homestead. She spread her wings and took flight shadowing the army and to what end it was going too.
When she saw their destination she gritted her teeth. They were attacking Haakons keep and the Celestrial shimmer. She drew her sword and went into the fray.
Swan had been tending the forest for many a year here in this new land. The forest became familiar to her. She tended her duteis of keeping it free from brush and growing trees where needed. This last year had been very hard on the maiden who felt disillusioned by the way her life had turned. Few spoke to her and few understood her nature. Her few friends Caland the averail and Gaelear the half-elf were the only ones that truely knew of her loneliness without the others of her order around.
This day she was sitting on a rock in the middle of an elven temple ruins. Continplateing what she would do next.
She spyed moment along the tress and decided to follow it. It seemed strange like many white ants on the horizon.
As she approached within seeing distance she stepped back aghast. many powerful undead were moving though the forest. She ran back to the temple and prayed for a few moments.
Swan prayed to Solonar. So deep was her conviction that as she prayed she was filled with a holy inner peace and as she finished she was surrounded by sheaths of arrows arrows of undead slaying. She picked up her long bow slung the arrows over her back and followed where the army lead.
Pauvo teleported to the entrance as the Valkries were picking up thier honored dead. If he could smile he would have. His army would leave them to their task. It wouldnt be good to touch a servant of Gladshiem For every plane had its powers and He would not want a god from that realm seeking retribution on Sierra na; Not while he achieved his goal capturing and surrounding the last living civilizations on the world. Morzelmore and the offworlder village. He had had dealings with the offworlder's before that turned out badly. They were protected from undead now, But he had an angle to get through their defenses.
For now capturing Haakons keep was doubly fullfilling. Haakon had killed Pauvos love and He would do anything to reek havoc to anything associated with the God.
Pauvo laughed and the Shimmer the beautiful celestrial shimmer. With it he could cut off Celestria completely from Sierra Na.
He walked into the castle and down to the Great portal to find the Dracolich comfortably curled up on top of it like a sleeping cat. Pauvo rubbed his hands together in glee and walked up to the main hall.
Several very brave adventurers heard the news of the keeps fall. The new archmage Melocia, Marie, Krystine vale, and Caland the Avriel monk went down to investigate if the rumors were true. They easily made their way down the southern pine forest though the border areas of the northern morzels and back around to the keep. At the keep they met havock. Melocia called her Copper Dragon and her self shapechanged into a dragon they quickly went though the lichs on the southern end of the keep and attacked the draoclich itself. Marie and Caland wiped out several doom Knight commanders and also headed for the Dracolich.
Krystine with her sword hacked her way straight at the great bone dragon.
As they fought the dracolich a lich on the wall cast dismissal and then mordikaniens disjuction. Melocia involved in the fight with the dracolich didnt notice her copper dragon gone and then she herself changed into her normal elf self and ran away in fear. She ran
Marie and Krystine tried to help her and that was their mistake they went down first then the draocolich made short work of Melocia. Caland trying to save his friends was the last to fall to the great undead dragon. All four mysteriously found themselves back at the Temple of Io. It seemed for now they had a secound chance at life.
A few nights later Caland snuck into the woods near the keep found and carried the bodies of Desora and Nestarmari to the old elven temple he had started restoreing. He then had Heidi raise them. They promised to help him restore the temple and all started to work.
many adverturers have assailed the keep in recent weeks Melocia and Caland went together again and were soundly defeated by the drocolichs magic. Amielia passing by noticed that the forest was being harvested to make seige equipment and roadways following the undead she too found the keep and took on the great undead dragon. The Sensai had to fall back and abandon the assult and take cover.
many others have seen the devestation of the woods surrounding the keep as the undead carve a path west
Twoard Morzelmore.
The call for adventurers had gone across the land to protect morzelmore and rid the keep of the undead menace. Caland of Twomoons has lead the effort in gathering the people together.
Will you be a part of the greatest battle since the cataclysm? Only you can find that within yourselves.
The battle of Haakon's keep did not come without its losses. Caland lead the strongest force known to the world since the catacysm to retake haakon's keep. Even with the many adventurers the odds were against them for a Dracolich and the lichs surrounding it were a force more than equal to recieve their attack. The undead had built magical cannons to guard the fort and had placed numberous traps in the armys way. Included in the army was Caland, Crystine Vale, Marie, Ellidy of the village, The Tansu family, Elpis, Sanser and a select number of his guards, The ice elf merlin, Three Masters of kry's Fist the dragonkin monestary, and Carli' mettle the old silver dragon living in the north.
The adventures hit the fort and found out quickly that the cannons were well protected and ready for battle. The ice elf was the first to the entrance taking on the dragon single handidly. he killed the lich as the tansu joined in to assult the dragon. one by one the tansu fell as Caland, Ellidy, Crystine and Marie took their places. Carli'mettle then joined in and called a gold dragon to help. when the gold dragon flew off she herself changed into her true form and attacked.
No one knows who made the last blow the undead defended the keep for near a 1/2 day before falling to the adventurers. The tansu were raised but sadly Merlin and the three masters could not be raised completely disintigrated by the magic of the undead.
The people who fought were visited by angels of their gods and given gifts by them. Morzelmore and all the land have dubbed them The Hero's of Haakons keep.
Who will defend the keep now and its precious celestrial shimmer. That will be another story
