Ooc: By gar, it's been a while. Apologies, all. New Cotra A sharp knock broke the silence of Samuels room. The door opened immediately, and Morgain walked in. "We sustained casualties sir, but we got her. She's being taken to New Formello." "Good, I'll be there shortly." Morgain lingered a second longer, pausing to consider whether she should ask why Samuels had wanted to kidnap her. Common sense caught the better of her though, and she left. Samuels stroked his chin. Jones should be back from Ghikra soon... ---------- A few hours later, Jones, accompained by his men and three tomes rolled into New Cotra. Immediately the troops were marched back to the gates of town, where they prepared to march down to Fort Emergence. Jones himself took the books to the Old Bunker, where they would hopefully by translated. Samuels caught up with him just as he was preparing to leave town again, and asked who it had gone. After a brief report, and a little shouting, Jones was dismissed. Samuels fumed. The surface-rat better have something useful to tell us. ---------- Caves North of New Formello In the caves to the north of the settlement of New Formello, Samuels had converted an abandoned mining town into an interrogation centre. Alexandria had been bought here the night before, and she was now preparing to be questioned by Samuels. She was forced into a room, and strapped to a chair. Two magi appeared to the side of her, energy potions at their belts. The door to the right opened. Samuels entered. "Why, hello," he smirked. "And what does the little rat have to tell us? Who do you work for?" ---------- Fort Emergence Bridge The bridge north of Fort Emergence was now heavily fortified. Wooden Palisade walls had been thrown up, and several small buildings erected. About 3,000 troops now manned the area, and a further 50 or so were hiding in caves to the south. The Avernites were preparing for a war that would hopefully never come. ---------- OoC: Tyran - Check PMs [ Wednesday, April 05, 2006 00:19: Message edited by: Kid: A xx ] -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start?

I'd just like to applaud Dikiyobiaria for a truly amazing script. I could spew exposition at you, and heck, you might even like it, but I'll refrain from doing so. Anyways, congratulations on getting me to focus my attention on an internet-thingy(tm) for more than a few days. Word out. -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start?

Portal Fortress The area around the flickering portal was empty. A sharp wind cut through the area, whipping up eddies of dust. A scrumpled up piece of paper fluttered away to the west, were it was pinned against the fort's walls. Silence had descended. Yet, from behind a large outcrop of rock, the bow of an archer could be seen. A whisper from the other side of the cave broke through the air, and immediately, the bow fell out of sight. Morgain, sitting in the administrative offices north of the portal read a second letter on her desk once again. Alexandria will not return to the surface. Kill her men as soon as they come through the portal. Take her alive. - Samuels She stood up, and strode across to the viewing platform above the portal. She waited... ---------- Ghikra The last of the scouting parties returned to talk to Jones. Ghikra was a shell. Before the Vahnatai had left, they had stripped the place. All that had been found were tomes in the vahnatia tongue. They would need to be deciphered. Jones looked annoyed, and rightly so. He had lost 32 men disarming traps in the town, and for nothing. These tomes had better be of some use... OOC: Hope to do a longer post tomorrow. Oh, and is it okay for me to steal Alexandria? She won't die. Work it into your next post Dini.

Captain William Manech: A scout. Makes first contact with several factions in Fort Emergence. And various other minor people of no consequence.

Fort Emergance Bridge Samuels leant back in his chair, his meeting concluded. Bors seemed suspicious of the garrison he was being allowed. Fortunately, he hadn't twigged on that his troops were to be a meatshield from more hostile factions on the surface - Upper Avernum was more secure than it had been before, even with surface-worlders on the doorstep. He ran his face over his hand - the only problem was that he'd had to let a delegation go down to the caves below, wasting valuable energy. As well as that, she would potentially mess up his diplomacy missions in the caves. He didn't want the KOA making friends with Empire scum, after all. Still, there was no guarantee that they would make a return journey. He pulled a sheet of paper towards him, and scribbled down on it. Alexandria, surface-worlder. Be careful not to let her die in a portal accident. - Samuels That would deal with that, and one less surface-worlder to fight would make all the difference. Suddenly, their came a tapping at the door. "Enter." The door opened. Morgain entered, red in the face from her long march from the portal. "I have good news..." ---------- The 2,000 men from Avernum were separated almost immediately upon reaching New Cotra, in order to weaken any potential uprising they ight decide to through. 1,000 marched straight down to Fort Emergence, to bolster the forces already there, and to relieve Samuels' best men. Another 500 headed north for New Formello, and the caves surrounding it. Finally, the last quarter were marching to the edge of Western Upper Avernum. Samuels had left them under the command of an old soldier, Captain Jones. Morgain had been sent back to the Portal Fort with the surface folk, carrying with her the letter Samuels had written just before she entered. The 500 troops under Jones' command had been outfitted in iron armour and metal weapons, plundered from the old bandit fort south of Ghikra. The host were mainly warriors, with a smattering of archers. No magic users, save for a few priests were present. Jones marched to the front of them and called their halt. "We need to turn north here, Ghikra isn't far." He called at them to resume, and continued marching alongside the leaders. The white walls of Ghikra loomed out of the perpetual twilight. -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?

OOC: Eeek! It's all starting to kick off now! IC: Fort Emergence A fruitless half hour had passed before Manech's man finally came with orders from Samuels. Handing over his message to Manech, the soldier fell in behind him, slightly out of breath. Manech gave the Hunters a quick glance, and unrolled the scroll: "Tell them we mean them no harm at the minute. They, at least aren't attacking us now, and we may be able to use them to defeat other factions on the surface. Eventually they will fall, but they need not know that. I will see an envoy of them, immediately." Manech turned to face the party in front of him. Well, may as well see if they want to meet. "I am under orders to allow a delegation of your men see my Commander, in the hopes of making an alliance. Your words ring true, and I apologise for my earlier anger. Would you come and see my leader?" Bors thought for a minute. "Of course. I will also bring Alexandria, if that is okay? And a small portion of my troops?" The poor girl might wet herself if I don't let her get to her crystals. Manech nodded sharply. "Very well. We will march immediately." --------- Torfen Morgain sighed inwardly; a sigh of relief. So there are still some Avernites left. And a nice amount, at that. Samuels will be very pleased. She was waiting outside King Lartaynior's throne room, preparing to see his Majesty. The news of the Castle struck her deeply indeed, and she was still moved by the fact. On the journey here, she also learned of the many factions from Selwyn. If she could get an envoy to the Abyss, she might be able to recruit even more men... But that would wait. A voice called to her from the air. "You can enter now." She approached the door, and waited as it opened for her... --------- Lartaynior was seated on a plush velvet throne, on the highest point in the room. Serious looking guards watched like hawks as she approached, collected. "Greetings, sire. I am Magi Morgain Yorke, an emissary from Commander Samuels of the Avernite Protection League. We, the people of Upper Avernum, would like to propose an alliance, one of mutual benefit." Lartaynior mused for a moment. Then he smiled. "Well met. As you are probably aware, Avernum is fragmented, split apart at the seams, with many factions fighting for power, dominance over one another, and for wealth. We, however, wish only to return Avernum to the glory it once held. An interest I sense you share as well. Tell me, what treaty would you propose?" "Well, my lord, my main mission was to secure military backing to strengthen our position in the Upper Caverns. Even as we speak the Empire is launching an onslaught on our people." "You want me to commit my men to fighting the Empire? We have been at peace for centuries!" "Yes, sire, I am aware. But, with respect, the facts speak for themselves. As I left the upper caverns, surface forces were marching on Fort Emergence. They have forgotten the alliance, and will probably attack Avernum proper. I'm not asking for men to assault the Empire - that would be madness. I ask only that you spare 2,000 men to help defend our homeland - YOUR homeland." "And what would we get?" "Well, my lord, safe passage to Upper Avernum for one. We have established the portal in the ToM ruins, and would be prepared to allow you to use it. The upper caverns are also rich in magic - both Ghikra and Erika's Tower are sure to house artifacts that we could share with you. And, of course, you would gain an ally. A rare thing indeed in these times of turmoil. What say you?" "Hmmm. Very well. I will allow you to take 2,000 of my men with you to Upper Avernum. As well as this, I give to you this orb, as a means of communication between our people. see that your leader recieves it. Now, let us forget business for a while and eat." Morgain smiled, both inwardly and outwardly. She had secured troops. Now the bastards above would pay... -------- Ooc: Dini/GKing - over to you. Samuels will speak, and will offer to let you use the portal (in small numbers) if thats what you want. We can't offer troops, and any magical equipment must be bought fairly. Also, you can have a garrison in Fort Emergence. -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?

Fort Emergence Manech stood staring at this surface-worlder, this "Captain Bors". Finally, after weighing up his words, he spoke, bitterly: "I care not for your corrupt ways, or for your promises of "mutual protection and trade", surface-walker. We, the people of Avernum, have no need nor desire to deal with... with... yourselves at this moment in time. We will, however, allow you to stay at the surface entrance to the Fort, where we are currently standing, until such a time I can recieve orders from my superiors." He thought for a minute. This is my chance... He turned to an archer to his left. "Go and tell Samuels of this." Then, turning back to Bors and the Hunter squad, he smiled slightly, and began speaking again: "Now, until we get orders, what say we take this opportunity to share news in these troubled times?" Lets see if these filthy bastards are as stupid as they look... ---------- Fort Emergence Bridge Samuels was pacing. Things were proceeding faster than he cared for. His only hope was that the people in the Tower of Magi had seen the portal and were now mustering forces to aid him. Lets hope that Morgain can do something useful... --------- Portal Fortress Morgain was standing by the now permanant portal connecting the upper caverns with Avernum proper, preparing to go through. Deciding to leave a small force to protect the portal in case a retreat was needed, she selected two dozen men to through with her. "Okay, let's go men. Remember - we need allies! Don't stick the first thing you see." She grinned, and walked through the portal. --------- ToM Ruins Morgain stepped through the portal, and immediately wished she hadn't. The Tower, magnficently rebuilt as it was before, now lay in ruins. Brimstone and ash lay everywhere. Walls had been smashed down, and the ruins looked as if they had been picked clean. Stooping down, she noticed heavy footprints in the dirt. So somebody IS down here. Looking around, she checked the area for anybody living. No luck. If anybody was here, they'd gone now. The last of her small group poured out from the portal, and stood around, surveying the carnage. Morgain: "Right, we stay here for an hour. I want everybody rested and ready to march for the Great Cave as soon as I've finished making some healing elixirs." I sure as hell hope that somebody comes before then. If they don't, then... it doesn't bode well for Avernum if huge swathes are as desolate as this. And it doesn't bode well for our revenge.

New Cotra Samuels was pacing back and forth along the edge of the river that split New Cotra in two. He was worried. He had recieved confirmation of a passage to Avernum, but couldn't use it yet. Instead, he had to send men to Fort Emergence. A messenger had brought news that there was fighting in the area, which meant that surface-worlders were down there. Down HERE. In Avernum. They were, he was sure, invading again. Damn them! I needed an army before they came! He leant back against a gnarled old cave tree, and called for a soldier. Almost imediately, one came running. "Yes sir?" "I need you to take a message to Morgain. She's at the Portal Fortress. Tell her that war may be upon us. Tell her that she must do whatever she needs to summon an army - and tell her that she may use the portal. And nobody else hears of this. Dismissed." The soldier saluted sharply, and sped off. Now... I need to speed to Fort Emergence, and try and halt the flow of the...the... Empire. ----------- A few hours later A short distance away from Fort Emergence, where a river disects Upper Avernum from the surfcae entrance, a large camp had been made. Leaving the bare minimum amount of soldiers to defend New Cotra and New Formello, Samuels had rode out almost immediately after contacting Morgain. Now he held a position on the Northern end of the bridge. He was in his command tent, after ordering a scouting party to Fort Emergence. Morgain had better not fail me. I need an army more than ever now... ------------- Fort Emergence Manech, a tall, spritely archer, and two other soldiers reached the cave-side entrance to Fort Emergence. Sneaking in, they quickly spotted a host of tanned faces to the north, walking amongst the slain bodies of a bandit tribe. Stumbling back in surprise at seeing Empire troops, he clattered his sword against the dank cavern wall. Almost immediately, the surface-worlders turned on him... He brandished his sword, and stood to his full height. "I, Captain William Manech, of the Avernite Protection League demand that you state your business, here, surface-worlders" [ Sunday, March 26, 2006 05:40: Message edited by: Nikki xx ] -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start?

OOC: Dinitradin (sp?) - If you're going to be arriving in Fort Emergence soon, remember that my faction are having problems with bandits. You'll probably need to fight. (Just FYI) IC: Morgain and her small force finally arrived at the shell that was previously the Portal Fortress. The area was still intact, but the smell of ozone was thick in the air. The portal, normally a lurid blue colour was now emitting deep rays of red light across the place. Morgain: "Right, Cole," she turned to a tall, wiry man to her right, "I want you to take a few archers and find our forces in the area. Talk to them - I want to know what's been going on." Cole: "Sir." A group of maybe 12 archers moved off from the body of the troops, leaving a few dozen warriors and a handful of magi. These stand to attention, occasionally throwing worried glances at the portal, which is now making strange bubbling noises. Morgain: "Okay guys, we're going to get closer to that thing, and see if we can get it to run again. You, you and you," she points at three swordsmen, "Take some men and set up watches at the entrances. Nobody is to get through without us knowing. Right, the rest of you, lets march." ---------- A few hours had passed, and still the portal was uncalibrated. A group of magi were working ceaselessly to get it to function, and had so far managed to send a barrel from one end of the room to the other. There was no luck, however, in getting the portal to attach itself to the one in the Tower of Magi. Morgain: "Damn! Surely the tower can't have been destroyed? Can you try and get a lock on anything down there?" One of the magi working with the portal shook his head, then paused. "We might be able to lock onto the location where the portal SHOULD be. The only risk is that the tower has been run over by hostiles." "Well do it! Samuels needs to contact Avernum, and this is our best chance. Once we establish a foothold in South East Avernum, we can march to the Great Cave and see what's happening." "Yes sir." ---------- New Cotra It was now a day since Samules had sent the group to the Portal Fortress. He was getting restless. We need an army dammit. We need to make... A soldier, clearly tired from his march here, entered the office. "Sir, I have a message from Morgain. The portal is functioning, and we have tested it thoroughly. We can now reach Avernum." Finally! Now it was time to unite Avernum. The place must have been unified by now, and all I have to do is march in and call them to arms! "Thank you. I'll prepare a task force immediately. Dismissed." And now that Avernum's within reach, I should see if I can destory the bandits holed up around Fort Emergence... -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?
