the one cag: Derovarr continued to press forward, lining himself up to charge his foe (the champion). He noticed that the prismatic ball was obscuring his vision, and, most likely, that of enemies.
the one cag: "Ranmor, let's give the them the curtesy waiting till they're in sight. I think it's fair to say that they like surpises!"
laharl01: Ranmor responds grimly "We know that all too well, you'd think we'd have learned by know."

judson256: <I'm well out of range of dispelling. As soon as possible, ill disjoin the entire group>
the one cag: <Proceed. Me and Ranmor will be awaiting the signal.>

the one cag: "Come on Commander! Let's get into to the fight!" (WRT on marty, then full move towards Garris, CE at full)

As the unsettling feeling from the teleportation feeling wore off, Derovarr stumbled away from the group, noticably angered. As he walked he began to mumble, occassionally the name Karhedros was heard, as well as "spell squad."
He made it about half way to the door before collapsing to knees and letting an accursed scream. As he did, his back arched, and his uscles noticably tensed. Most noticably, his eyes, for but a fraction of a second, turned pure, holy white.
After the scream, he took a few moments to breathe, and, slowly, recollected himself and made for the door.
"I'm calling for a tactical briefing. Five minutes." and he was gone.
You! Your character's build displeases me! Come to the boards for nerfing!

Jens stares blankly after Derovarr. "That's... whoa."

"Yeah... You don't say." Jens starts off down the hallway after Derovarr.

Derovarr stopped upon hearing Jens' voice, and turned to face him. A look of utter seriousness in his eyes. "Yes, Jens, what can I do for you?"

Derovarr let out a long sigh. "I probably shouldn't have done that."
7:15 PM
"I... heard you talkiing about... about our.. losses."
"Yes. I was rather disappointed with them."
Jens is silent for a moment. "I don't blame you. How many times would we have died out there if not for Karhedros' defenses?"
"...and... well... there was a personal thing too."
"It's not that. As a commander, I must be prepared to loose those who choose to follow us. He fought and died valiantly, this we must all give him."
"Yes. But there's more to it than that, isn't there?"
"At the same time, as a commanding officer, I cannot help but feel partly to blame when we take casualties."
"It is simply the way it is."
7:20 PM
"Hm." Jens started to look off into the distance. "I for one was hoping he knew someone. As Airindale nobility, I thought he might know about Mother." He sighed. "I guess we'll never know, now."
Derovarr shook his head, "That is a shame."
"And what of the tactical squad?"
"That, was a matter of some-one's incompetence. Not my own."
7:25 PM
Jens blinks. "Surely you don't mean Kelmik? How could he have predicted the enemy commander appearing out of thin air ABOVE them and dropping an iceberg on them? How could anyone?"
"His job was to protect them."
"That means keeping a watch."
Jens could come up with no good counter to this.
"...you do have a point, sir. maybe an anticipate teleport or something..."
"If he was competent enough to have a mage looking behind them, they would still be alive."
"I was looking behind him, that's why the dragons didn't eat them all. He needed to be looking up."
"He needed to be, looking."
"And that was the problem."
"Kelmik may know more of the arcane than I."
"But after act of blatant idiocy, it makes me wonder about his brain."
"What did you expect? He's an artificer trying to lead warmages."
7:30 PM
Probably the best they could scrounge up on short notice."
"I expected him to do a task that I could have asked one of the militia to do."
"Keep watch."
"And, now that you talk about it, they'd probably have done it better."
"Who's knows."
Jens sighs. "But sir, and again, forgive me for being frank, but passing around blame is not going to solve our problems."
"Ressaign him to catapult duty, maybe"
"Passing around blame?"
"As a commanding officer, it my job to constantly analyze how those around me are doing."
"Sir, please calm down."
"I am not trying to aggravate you."
"All I'm saying is there's a time and place to hold Kelmik accountable, and it is not while the enemy is battering down the gates."
"Pardon me Jens, but that is for me to decide. Not you."
7:35 PM
"Yes, sir. Forgive me."
"I have to be harsh."
"Especially, to higher ranking officers."
"Yes... sometimes... sadly.. that has to happen."
"Lest we repeat ourselves."
"And I have no doubt that he'll regret it all. I've never seen you this upset before, sir. Your eyes did something wierd, even. Flashed white for a second. A little scary, truth be told."
"Did they?"
"Yeah. What was that, if you don't mind me asking?"
"I suppose I wouldn't know why if I didn't notice."
"Hmm. Caelotheir had some interesting theories. Something about not being 'original human'. Not sure what he meant, but there you go."
7:40 PM
"It would be at this point Jens. That I would suggest that you cease digging into your commanding officer's personal life."
"That would be rather unprofessional, don't you think?"
"To say nothing of unhealthy. I don't have a death wish." He was silent for a moment. "Although, do keep in mind, you're talking to a man of dragon blood. Wouldn't at all be unheard of."
"But not to dig."
"That's a good choice."
"Now."
"The briefing I called for will be starting in about a minute or so. I'll see you there."
"Just think on that. Not all can be truted to keep their mouths shut on such things. You've naught to worry about from me, but others may not be so trustworthy."
Derovarr proceeded to move down the hall, once more.
"Yes sir. Until then."

Derovarr arrived in the meeting room early, as though to give himself sometime to cool down. It had been a long time since he had been so angry. Such thoughts almost brought him to knees again, but, fortunately, he heard footsteps in the cooridor, forcing him to pull himself together. By the time people were filtering in, Derovarr was standing fully upright, and, as opposed to earlier, seemed unphased.

About 1-2 minutes later, the command staff had assembled in full, though some had apparently not been healed fully. For that matter, Derovarr had not healed either, and there were several noticable trails of blood on his head.

"As most you know, not but five minutes ago, joint Archeronian and Misalinian forces returned from conducting a surprise assault on the enemy forces at they were teleporting in. Luckly we were able to capture a small enough element of surprise, to hit them before they could bring in support. While our mages blasted their ground forces, the command squad took on their response squad.

Though we took significant casualties, I would say that we have again tilted the odds further in our favored. "In the air battle, we managed to eliminate all but the one of the mages of the response squad, two full mage squads, and with the skills of our mage Jens, two of their dragons. As I was not a participant of the ground battle, I will ask... Kelmik to speak the the results of that aspect of the strike.

Our casualties were considerable though. Most of you will notice that Karhedros will is no longer with us. It is because he fell, valiantly, in a battle that none here could have asked of him. We also suffered lost some of Garris' knights, who bravely charged in with us as we took the battle to their champion. I'd give the whole squad medals if I were so authorized. Lastly was the tactical squad, who fought on long enough to fire off the burst of fire that may well save thousands of lives.

Though, overall, we were victorious, I have no doubt that the enemy will continue with the attack. They have a deadline, and another army to support them. Tactically, it may not make sense, but, they seem fairly determined to spill our blood. Thus, knowing this, I would suggest we continue anyway with preparations.

First... Kelmik will speak on the results of the ground battle, and any other facts he to report, then I'd like to here from our scouts, as to anything they've leanred of the battles between the bandits and the orcs. This will be followed by any outside news we've heard, concering other battles or political issues. We will close the discussion with a general reassurtion pertaining to the defense of Trelling's infrastructure.

Kelmik?" he said, finishing, and offering his center to the mage.

Kelmik stands "well I must first say it was hardly a ground battle. We flew just as you did, but that's besides the point."

"We teleported in hovering over hill #103, and met against an enemy mage squad and sniper sentry squad posted there, as well as their warding squad still setting up defensive spells. Our mages were able to finish off their defenders promptly with minimum losses. The warding squad teleported out but not before we killed off half their numbers."

"After securing the hill, my mage squad was left to guard the tactical spell squad as they charged up, while the elven mages broke off into half-squad units and went out in separate directions to deliver as much damage to the enemy ground forces as possible."

"Before we could launch the tactical spell however, the enemy dragonlancers teleported in and a trio of them went after us instantly. My squad busied itself with defending ourselves and shielding the tactical mage squad against their spells. Commander Buumstic came in the nick of time to kill those dragons before they could unleash any more attacks, and the tactical spell squad managed to fire off their spell. But just as we were distracted by the dragons, another blue draconic mage teleported in above us and... within a blink and before any of us could respond in proper, crushed the tactical mage squad under an iceberg and a torrent of other spells. At that point, a full withdraw order was already in effect and my mages were quite shaken by the enemy's spellcasting power, thus we departed immediately."

"I believe that the mage who delivered death to the tactical mage squad was definitely the enemy commander. I can't be sure, but I was quite surprised that after everything he seems to have accomplished today, summoning the shadow balors, dueling Andrei and his dragons, teleporting the troops, he still had the reserve spell capacity to attack us with such fury. However, he did look to be straining himself quite badly, so I believe, at least hope, that was the last of his magical reserves."



Garris surveyed Kelmik as he sat back down, as if trying to decipher the authenticity of his words and descriptions. He did not look entirely convinced, but did not speak of it. "I sincerely hope that was their commander. It would be quite dangerous for us if they had multiple mages of such caliber around, particularly now since we have lost Karhedros' abilities. Our attack cost them enemy their best attack squad, as well as almost four elite mage squads, not mentioning several hundred troops. I would say we did well, although we definitely could have done better. Maybe I was aiming too high, but I certainly hoped we could take control of this side of the teleportation circle and force the enemy to stop bringing troops over."

"I did hear some minor sounds of skirmishing in the woods. Did those brigands actually manage to help us? Or did they flee in terror or die a pointless death?"


"Neither, I'd say" responded Major Aelle, "from what I could figure out, the enemy did not press their attack into the woods. Only two or three skirmisher squads were sent in. The bandits also did not defend their position firmly, but they did set up an ambush and killed a few enemies. Not that such an event would make an impact on the battle."


"So in other words, they're as useless as before." said Garris as he took control as soon as Aelle finished her line. "Not that I expected anything of them."

"Well, let's look at the current situation. Personally I think it would take them another hour or two to teleport all their forces through, then more time to assemble and move into position. Their attack would probably start around dusk or post-nightfall, when they can take advantages of their abilities to see in darkness. We can wait out until then, although our troops may become irritated after an entire day of being on full guard, that can't be helped though. I believe there is also another opportunity to attack, although after what has happened already I don't think we have the capacity for it anymore."

Derovarr looked noticiably worried at the idea of launching another strike. "I'm not sure if I would be willing to commit any more troops to another attack before the 'siege' begins. As beneficial as may well seem, I would argue that the time has finally come to dig in and fight it out in Trelling proper. Both sides have made devistating strikes against each other, but, the battle lines are being drawn.

We have done what we could to slow their advance, and I think we have made it quite clear that the defenders of Trelling will not be so easily felled. Their commanders know it, and their troops fear it. Remember that they marched forth with a force of over 6000, and by our efforts, this has been reduced signifcantly. We have lost many, and and sacrificed much, but such risks have evened the odds, and, in some cases, given us an advantage.

Thus, let there be no doubt that we stand a solid chance of winning this battle. Since the start of this campaign, we have felled over a flight dragons, and shot countless magi from the sky. We have their wracked their journey here with terrible weather, and nigh continous nights of ill-wrought fortune. Finally, we have battled their finest, their elite, and we have emerged victories.

I will credit them with the uncanny ability to rule their troops, but any of the commanders in this room will tell you that morale can only last so long, and I honestly feel that the enemies morale is about to come crashing down. They have lost far too much to enter this battle at full morale. Their commanders are weary, their support is dwindling, and, inspite off all that they have done to us, we are still here.

We are still here, comrades. If there is but one constant that has been embeded in their minds, it is the fact that Trelling still stands, and her allies draw breath. We still have walls to brace against, and siege to shoot with, and solid ground to hold footing.

The physical battle may still be up in the air. But the psycological battle is going, by far, in our favor." ((Diplomacy 65)).
