Recollection of Sasspriina's (Sassy) defence of Benz:
In the start, sass just seemed to be walking by the central citadel, tired from the long day of walking around and just about to store some small pouches of coins in the bank she spotted Vortar, being who and what he is, put her on edge as it tends to always do, let alone with his renoun reputation for eating elves.
Holding composure,though hesitant, she kept pressing forward to him, even when he was mounted to his Nightmare steed. He had been called to the meet for the defence and recomended she do as well. Obviously none would so short handedly ignore one such as Vortar.
Though she came, the persistant conflict of "what does my contribution mean anything to benz?" was always ringing off in her mind...
Being a elf and a attractive one at that had always molded her into a perinoid and rather cautious mentality of thinking in the city of Benz.
Reluctantly she figured "if i dont contribute anyways ill be in worse trouble than i can if i help", and moved to the group in the north district.
Upon arrival she noticed the legionares getting into formation as the Red wizards and more had'nt quite arrived just yet. She stood next to the pillar more so out of sight than anything and remained there silent and still with the ever large looming Vortar near. It wasnt until the Protector arrived and had all formed up that she finally took into the line and oddly enough right next to Vortar on his Nightmare, granted a few steps away, but none the less stayed silent and attentive.
As the protector shouted out orders and requests, one was of his need for those that can hurl fire balls and the like.
With a hesitant glance to the side more to Vortar than anything,she raised her hand and spoke up stating she was capible of such things.
The protector glanced over and then assigned her to the northwest wall with Duston and a few others.
Listening to the rest of the orders barked out she move with her assigned group to the wall. Being a bit early in the arrival of undead and the like Duston and Sasspriina loaded up the Balista's and Catapolts with amunition and testing range even with test shots.
Being a Sorcoress she wasnt familiar with seige materials but learned fast and got the hang of it.
When the battle itself commenced she focused on grouping those she could together and casting down a ice stormed barrage upon their heads or launching fire balls at their feat. Even zapping them with lightning bolts, some blowing up into rotted gore, and others just passing through to the other in line behind them. After long fighting and many spells extinguished she became strained from the energy used to cast so many of the same powerful spells and as break neared inbetween waves of enemies, she looted off what supplies she could from the fallen and stacked on Full-plate armor, sheild and flail, and became that of using melee combat with any that got up onto the wall.
Though she wasnt trained near at all, she did what she could and did rather well infact even with the help of Barrel, the dwarf, after more legonaires and the like arrived the full force came to the walls, many ladder bearing zombies put such to the walls as they scaled up, sass did what she could to push as many down as she could, until the attack of the flying demons to the walls, rendering the forces defence back and allowed floods of zombies to storm the walls, blood mixed with undead gore and more filled the air in a thick noxious aroma as she looked around a moment in some horror at the flying demons on the wall. Shaking it off she joined in where she could and helped surpess the advance.
As it was seeming near at a end, the walls were attacked by beholders and slew many, only being slew by Vortar and Diego most, as Red wizards were likly out of spells our else where at the time fighting more farther down the walls lines.
After being slew the protector called for the most seasoned of warriors to come with him and the rest to remain at the walls defence. We all knew it wasnt quite over even looking at the thousands of undead corpses scattered all over the ground, the approaching final force was in sight along with large monsterous beings with them.
When the battle commenced in the light break given, the walls shot off balista's, sass maning a scattering balista, along with more shooting arrows and fighting any that scaled the walls fromt he already fallen corpses, the protectors forces charged out from the right side of the gates, likly from the northern gate and penatrated the forces weakening them and slaying the most horrific and dangerious of demons, undead and monsterous beings.
As it was at a end.... Sass looted what she was able and not already picked clean and all were to report to the norths courtyard where they had been given defencive orders. The leaders of the city and thay came to see and thank all involved in defence of the city.
Though Sass came to the meet as she was required, she couldnt help but feel that even with the contribution her efforts were for near nothing, always looking back at the fact shes just a mere elf in the city and always will be, just staying silent and rather unmoving during the thanks of the leaders she wasnt at all hesitant to just wander off after thanks from the powerful wizards and went to her temple of Sharess for some meditation and rest of her exhaustion of her sorcery and fighting, comming back to see Vortar handing out coins for drinks as she assumed.
As he handed her the share of coins, Vortar himself told her he may've had her as a celebrative snack, putting her on edge further more, seeming rather tempted to run with magical means, he didnt make further attempt to such a claim and turned to his own business, and without hesitation sass went on her way quickly and onward with what life she contains in Thay, where ever it takes her.
