A Change in the Wind
#15
The three of them head toward his suite, discussing spells as they walk. It was the age old discussions of Wizards, what spell is better, which will meet the demands of the battle. As they entered though, they two Wizards separated , leaving Kaiser and his guard Elvita alone.

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] Elvita, come here please

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] *gestures to the chest* Anything in there you wish?

Elvita Fierce: [Talk] No, master. My new armour is sufficient

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] *reads his spell book as she looks* Excellent


She is a fine soldier, I will do well to ensure I keep her in my service. Especially knowing that Ihsahn is around, the man hordes all the women in this damn city like a dragon does gems. And Alahna will like her, she is far from some teenage flirt. Though I do admit, she does have a solid form, maybe it's a pity she doesn't dance...


Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] Are we prepared?

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] I believe so

Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] Let's go for a wander, then.

Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] Try the west gate first?

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] Elvita, if we are forced to retreat, you come with us. Don't stay to die with soldiers.


As in, you protect my finely chiselled ass, instead of someone else's


Elvita Fierce: [Talk] *She nods* I understand

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] And aye, the west gate

The threesome leave the Sea Wolf, making their way to the east. They are promptly stopped in their tracks, as Vortar upon his flaming Nightmare comes upon them, assassin shackled to his saddle.

Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] Hello, Vortar.

Vortar "The Mad" Blood of Tharax: [Talk] Masters...use the power of your robes to let me know if I am needed...I set stones for all quarters of the city.

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] Smart Vortar

Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] Seems they picked the wrong moment. *jerks a thumb at the assassin*

Elvita Fierce: [Talk] *She nods*

They continue on their way, the gate near in view when the shout rings out.

[Shout] Elements of the enemy force begin to come into view of the northwest wall - zombies!

Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] Let's get up on the wall.

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] *nods*

The two Wizards prepare themselves. The weave crackling around them as the two call upon spell upon spell.

Elvita Fierce: [Talk] *She stands in awe of the spells*

What greeted the two master wizards and their sworn guard, was a sight to behold. The entire North-western front was already filled with carnage. Wave upon waves of Zombies stormed the walls, each oddly enough, carrying ladders. Kaiser almost laughed at the sight, and admittedly felt oddly creepy about it. Whoever was leading this, had not just brainless undead, but trained servants of death.

Ladders were raised, to be pushed back down by the protectors. Catapults were fired, ballista's were fired, and Kaiser even gave some of his own spells to the fray. Eventually the wall was secured, and the defenders were given a moment to catch their breath.


[Shout] The initial elements on the north-western wall are eliminated

Kaiser surveyed those upon the walls, even trying to figure the weapons themselves. Each time he moved, he was pleased to see Elvita was with him. She was connected to his hip, and truth be told, he was quite proud of that. And it may have boosted his ever growing ego, just a little...

[Shout] The main force comes into view, the majority of the army heading toward the north-western wall, with smaller flanking elements moving toward the west gate

Vortar left to man the gate, the others, Dante, Duston, the curvy elf Sasspriina, and Maurin remained. Kaiser rained down more spells, then stopped as Maurin declared the undead filth. Let the others take them down, more dreaded attackers were sure to come.

Ghasts and Zombies soon were too many, many finding their way to the top of the wall. Melee was needed to cut them down, though many were wounded in the attack. As those upon the wall began to bandage themselves, another call was sent out.


[Shout] Undead begin attacking the western gate!

Diego San'draxus: [Talk] Yer bes' not fail ta hold dis wall soldier!

.....wha?

[Shout] The defence of the western gate hold strong

[Shout] More powerful undead, in addition to some of the demons of the army move toward the western gate


Elvita and he made their way toward the gate, at reaching the stairs they looked down at what was happening below.

Diego San'draxus: [Talk] Knight...yer ta call it. We'll be righ' behind ye.

Vortar "The Mad" Blood of Tharax: [Talk] I shall stand in their way...kill those that get by.

Diego San'draxus: [Talk] Tough shi'...yer sharin'.


The undead, swarmed. Wave upon wave came at the defenders. At one point Kaiser had at least a dozen trying to claw their way up to tear at his flesh. His spells rained down, but every six he killed, they were replaced three fold. Eventually the soldiers got to him to lay waste to the undead that were piling under him.

He was about to start to chastise them, when suddenly strange beings flew over the walls. Upon cresting the battlements, they would drop demons around the defenders. The sudden attack was almost overwhelming, the defenders barely surviving the onslaught.


[Shout] With the help of the Red Wizards, the western gate stands firm against demons never before encountered!

Kasier was blinded by one attack, so it was still blinded that the call was quickly followed by another.

[Shout] The main body of the huge force begins it attack against the north-western wall in earnest

[Shout] Messengers from Ryech call all to the defence on the north-western wall, with only a token force to remain at the western gate!


He could finally see again, so he and Elvita joined the others. Diego Fat Tongue, still barked his garbled orders. Duston, Natasha, Reesa, Sarin, and the ever curvy Sass, continued to repel wave upon wave.

Why am I looking at her body when I should be concentrating? The woman is almost a liability up here. I do like how her loincloth moves as she bends over the battlements though....I bet I could take her right here and nobody would even notice. No, no, no, Alahna, think Alahna.....no wonder people join the legion, this fighting is making me as randy as a sharressian...

The undead continued to come, a never ending wave it seemed. His spells were all but exhausted, Elvita was covered in gore...almost hot to look at, in a creepy way....meh, I'm a Necromancer, that's supposed to be expected...he debated using a stone to go to his tower. Find his Alahna and ...then something caught his attention.


Reesa: [Talk] Any word from the harbour?

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] I am without spells Elvita. I will go, I am useless here

And have a bitterly cold shower...

Vortar "The Mad" Blood of Tharax: [Party] Sauhaguin were in the attack on the western gate....check the harbour

Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] Kaiser, where you headed?

[Shout] A mass of flying creatures can be seen winging toward the city wall

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] The harbour I am spell less


Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] *nods*

[Shout] Ryech sends commands: We need forces down below the wall in case they simply fly over it! Station the less experienced there.

[Shout] The creatures are darkenbeasts - some large and quite powerful...

They ignore the shouts, concentrating on getting to the harbour.

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] Seems quiet

Durn Leonall: [Talk] indeed friend

Elvita Fierce: [Talk] Yes, so far the gates seem to be holding

Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] The harbor is clear, shall we replenish spells?

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] Yes, indeed. My suite?

Maurin Greyhand: [Talk] sounds good.

Elvita Fierce: [Talk] Up to you, master

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] *nods* Lets go

Kaiser Signe: [Talk] Durn, tell them the harbour is clear

And with that, the three return to the safety and quiet of the Sea Wolf. Each returning to their rooms to prepare for another attack. Elvita, wisely did not follow Kaiser into his room. The bath was damn cold, but at least he was able to concentrate again..
