Strife Of The Eclipse Warmonger Intent Pt. 1
Meanwhile... Far away from Stormhaven Port... Over and over again, for the past three hours, the Draugr had been raining hell over the village surrounding Rivergarde Capitol.-“Centurion!” –called out Hagar, to one of his soldiers- “Adjust the batteries for the maximum range! I want that garrison taken before dawn!”-“Yes, Warmonger! Maximum range!”He who spoke so firmly and confidently was Hagar. General Hagar Zu Fretui, as known and feared by the realm of Sylgarth since he attained power in the Draugr government six months ago. ‘Great leader’ for some, ‘tyrant’ for some others, and a dangerous menace’ for those in charge of cities such as Levalimar and Stormhaven Port. And they were all correct. Hagar had acquired power after overthrowing the Great Council, stating that their ritual ways of “communion with all beings” were weak and old-fashioned, and made the Draugr look soft to the eyes of the great Brosk. But, in turn, he could not have done that alone, so the fact of the gaine

Gronkka shared his thoughts:-“I have. It’s an… old legend… about an eastern mountain that hides the treasures of the Gods… What does it have to do with all this? Are you saying the Humans could be able to get there and reach the legendary treasure? Is that what your plan is about? Getting there first?” –Gronkka was now caught in the topic again. Hagar could now play his card.-“I do not intend to get there. I intend to return. And this time, to get out with a little more…” –And saying that, he took the small nugget out of his pocket and turned around, placing it on the table, and finally directing his sight to Gronkka again. Gronkka’s eyes were wide open. He rushed back to the table and grabbed the nugget in excitement and bit the chunk between his very tusk himself.-“Great Brosk’s horns!! It’s pure mithril! Where did you get it!?”Hagar was expecting the question from the beginning, so he let the old man know:-“I was returning from the city of Malmore, and decided to take the Nort

The Council was formed by the chiefs of all the tribes living in the Draugr Nation: Atuba, Grimagog, Hatar, Hespaga, Dudalora, Krogar, Gandir, and Fretui -Disbiose. Gronkka was present, now an official member of the Council, as a member of the Dudalora. That is when they learned that Grekakwi was slain by a female halfling whom he tried to enslave.They were all politely exposing their points of view, but the situation went slightly over the top. If the case had been treated some 300 years earlier, the final verdict would have been the decision to sound the war drums, and punish the offenders. But now, the Draugr had acquired the Human way of government, and they were going to settle their differences with the Mecharies according to Human law.-“Commander Hagar, it was your people who found the forbidden goods. Yours is the right to present your vision of the facts at hand” –said Rek’zaii, and sat at his place. Hagar then stood up:-“Great Flame Lords! Council Elders! As you may know,

Strife Of The Eclipse New Beliefs
The great iron doors of the ancient cathedral opened with the slow, malevolent movements of an approaching thunderstorm. The five soldiers of the Levalimar strode into the grim chamber with confidence and determination. Faith in Belial held their minds at ease in the presence of the unspeakable, palpable evil within the darkened sanctuary. Long ago, the cathedral had been a place of worship of Allyse but now it became the ground of heretic worshiper Belial. It stood as a triumph of the Levalimar’s architecture, reaching towards the heavens with a pinnacle of gleaming marble. Alas, it had long ago fallen into disuse by the righteous, and word had spread that new rites and worship were taking place in the fallen chapel. When the soldiers arrived, they found the once-clean windows boarded over. Dirt, ash, and stains of questionable origin had darkened the polished marble exterior. The commander pushed against the doors of the cathedral and they resisted his arms for a moment, but then s
Strife Of The Eclipse Three Months Ago : Stefan
Stefan was standing on top of the hill, looking out over the camp. The men were packing up the tents. As commander of one of the traveling armies of Stormhaven Port, the Stormtrooper Batallion, he was in charge of the lives of these men, but today he wished it wasn’t so. The men were tired and many of them were wounded, and Stefan could easily understand why. It had seemed like such a good idea when the current Lord of Stormhaven, Aiden had asked them to clean up a little in the Badlands, but he hadn’t known that they would be fighting every day with only the nights as resting-time, and there was still one battle left. Stefan praised Rena for her many fantastic leadership along the way. There was Ogmore Dunheim the Mechari. He had been Stefan's friend through many dangers, and it had been Ogmore who had saved him when he had lost his mentor in the battle against the Varyan Empire Armies. There was a newly appointed Lieutenant, Sivir Hawk who led the handgunners. Stefan smiled when h

With every ounce of strength and resilience, she charged towards the Orc Lord, her eyes fixed on his enraged visage. Azkia's mind is running at full speed thinking... As I fought on, my thoughts raced amidst the chaos of battle. The toll of the prolonged and intense clash with Gilgash was becoming evident in my weary body. Fatigue crept in, slowing my movements and dulling my reflexes. I could feel the weight of exhaustion settling upon me, threatening to sap my strength. But I refused to let weariness overcome me.

I reminded myself of the lives depending on me, the city relying on my unwavering determination. Each labored breath served as a reminder of the importance of the task at hand.

Ambush
Amidst the chaos of the battlefield, Azkia locked eyes with Gilgash, a sly smile curling at the corner of her lips. She let out a mocking chuckle, her body language displaying a hint of cheekiness and wit."You call yourself an orc lord?" Azkia taunted, her voice carrying above the din of battle. "Yet here you stand, too afraid to defend your honor and tarnish the traditions of our ancestors."Gilgash's face contorted with anger and disgust at Azkia's words, his body language betraying his fury. "You know nothing of our traditions, human," he retorted, his voice venomous. "Your feeble attempts at mockery will not save you from the inevitable."Azkia's smile widened, her body language exuding confidence as she continued to goad Gilgash. "Oh, I know more than you think," she replied, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "I know that real orc warriors don't cower behind their armies.

Kidnapped
In the dimly lit infirmary of Stormhaven Port, Sorisana knelt beside a wounded soldier, her gentle hands meticulously tending to his injuries. Aera stood nearby, a solemn expression etched across her face, her eyes reflecting the weight of the ongoing battle outside the walls.As the sounds of distant clashes and the echoes of war reached their ears, Aera turned to Sorisana, her voice tinged with sadness and weariness. "It seems the city is being tested to its limits," she sighed, her eyes filled with a mixture of concern and determination. "These brave warriors fighting for their home deserve our utmost admiration."Sorisana glanced up from her task, her gaze meeting Aera's, a flicker of surprise crossing her features.

Beneath the surface
Under the cover of darkness, a group of warriors gathered at a secluded spot within the city, their faces etched with determination and their eyes gleaming with the fiery resolve of their mission. Led by Azkia, they huddled together, their voices hushed yet filled with purpose.Azkia, her gaze fierce and commanding, addressed her fellow warriors. "Our objective is clear. We must sever the orc supply line and leave them starving and desperate. The destruction of their provisions will weaken their resolve and give us the upper hand."The warriors nodded in agreement, their anticipation palpable in the air. They began to strategize, pointing at various points on a map, and discussing the best locations to strike and set ablaze."We should target the main supply depot," suggested one warrior, his voice brimming with confidence. "Burning it down will create chaos and panic among the orc ranks."Another warrior chimed in, "We should also focus on cutting off th

"Our assault on Stormhaven Port has brought the walls to their knees, but victory still eludes us. The defenders have proven to be stubborn and resourceful, but we shall not be deterred. We will press our advantage and crush their resistance!"A hushed murmur spread through the council as they exchanged glances, fueled by their leader's fierce determination.

The grand hall of the Orc Lord Gilgash's stronghold resonated with the echoes of heavy footsteps as Angkor and Scortan entered, their armor clinking with each stride. The room was dimly lit, save for the flickering torches that cast dancing shadows upon the stone walls.Gilgash, a towering figure with bulging muscles and a battle-scarred face, sat upon a throne adorned with the bones of defeated enemies.

What did you uncover about Stormhaven Port?"Angkor stepped forward, his gaze unwavering. "My Lord, we launched our initial probe as planned. Stormhaven Port's defenses proved to be formidable.

Past Haunting
Angkor and Scortan crouched behind a dense thicket, their eyes fixed upon the towering walls of Stormhaven Port City in the distance. The air crackled with anticipation as they discussed their plans for the impending invasion. Angkor, a burly Orc with a scarred face and a twisted tusk, spoke with a low, gravelly voice."Scortan, this city is ripe for the taking," Angkor growled, his voice laced with a mix of excitement and greed. "The humans have grown complacent, and their defenses weakened. It's our chance to claim this place as our own."Scortan, a wiry Orc with sharp features and keen eyes, nodded in agreement, his lips curling into a sinister grin. "Aye, Angkor, their defenses are a shadow of what they once were. We've scouted their patrols, learned their weaknesses. The time to strike is now."Angkor's hands clenched into tight fists as he stared at the city gates. "Once Stormhaven Port falls, the surrounding lands will be ours for the taking. Riches, plunder, and the spoils of
