OOC: That's up to you. Less far than Prismos would have to travel to participate. I'm just curious what the motivation of attacking you is when Emerald has to cross at least one country to get to you; X40, X43, and even Zenlada are closer him. |

The Bells were ringing while Archbishop Friedich entered the great cathedral of Zusea, General Amelia Lockheart was singing alone; "Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart; Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art. Thou my best thought, by day or by night, Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light..." Her beautiful voice echoes inside there, she was kneeling in front of a great colored glass full with the Holy Nathalic symbols, a pale light ray was above her, the wind slowly and gently moved her long blond hair yarn, her deep blue eyes was closed and her sword was lying in front of her. "If someday the Lord grant me the vision of the angels singing am I sure that never could match this vision of you young general" said the archbishop standing at her side. "May the grace of Nathalia be you Friedich, when you see the angels you will see that I can not even be at their side in grace and glory" the young general opened her eyes and looked to the Archbishop. "Haha, you are gentle like a flower but lethal like a sword my beautiful Amelia, so it's true that you're going to Baron?" "Yes, General McTavish requested my presence to discuss something about that emerald deposit, the pope is really upset and the king ignores totally the church positioning... I don't like it" Taking her sword Amelia get up and and smile to Friedich. "Me neither, I hope that the king knows what hes getting into, if he turns his back to the church...you know what could happen..." "Yeah... I was praying here today, alone, you're the first person to step into this church today besides me, are the people loosing their faith?" "After those long years of war, yes I guess the population is tired and with a reason...My job is to gather them again hahaha, don't worry about that my beautiful general" Friedich touch Amelia's face and give her a cheerful smile. "Oh Friedich...I pray for Nathalia to you succeed in your mission, and I hope that we don't have another battle soon..." with a worried face she hold his hand. "Don't worry, everything is going to be fine, believe me, now you should go take a bath, I will provide that everything is ready for your departure ok?" "Thank you, I really need to relax and a bath will be perfect now, I'm grateful to have a friend like you for so many years Friedich..." Amelia hug her friend and gave a sigh. "Me too Amelia, me too" with a gentle kiss in her forehead he says goodbye. After some hours, the scout arrives the city walls. "HURRY! OPEN THE GATES!" "Who are you, where you come from and what orders you bring?" "I am Maceanas scout of the borders, I serve under the 329 scout troop, my commander is Nexus the wise, I bring orders to request backup to intercept suspicious troops near our borders, and this is a urgent request!" said the worried soldier. "Open the gates! Hurry good man, may Nathalia be with you!" The gates opened and the soldier rushed towards the army HQ, looking for Amelia. "Calm down soldier, general Amelia have orders to be in Baron in 2 weeks! She simply cannot accept your request" said Oliver the temporary commander. "You don't understand Oliver, we need backup in the borders where the 329 are located, we don't know who are those invaders, we need to be ready for anything!" Maceanas was impatient and worried walking to a side to another. "And why should we be worried? The military is already recovered since the last war, let the invaders come and we will receive them with a rain of arrows hahaha!" "Why take this risk! If we can hold them out of our country!" "Oh boy, look kid, it's late, I'm tired and I want to go home, why don't you do the same and we settle this tomorrow?" "FOR NATHALIA SAKE OLIVER THIS ISN'T A JOKE!" Maceanas grabbed Oliver and shook him. "Are you out of your mind soldier! Remind your place or I will arrest you right now!" Oliver and the other guards pulled out their swords. Things was getting hot when suddenly; "What's going on here?" "General Amelia! Thank Nathalia!" said the scout. "Nothing my liege, this soldier forgot his place and need to remember it!" "Sheathe your sword Oliver, save it for the enemy not for your brother, so who are you?" "I am Maceanas scout of the borders, I serve under the 329 scout troop, my commander is Nexus the wise, I bring orders to request backup to intercept suspicious troops near our borders, and this is a urgent request my liege" Saluting the general. "I salute you soldier, when that happened?" "yesterday, I only stopped to look for you my liege, I'm riding since I've received that order." "You're a brave man soldier, are you certain about they being enemies?" "Almost my liege, I never saw their flag, and they look like an attack force ." "Do you think that 30 knights and 20 archers is good enough?" "Yes my liege, if something goes wrong I believe that with 30 knights and 20 archers we can take care of the situation, thank you great general! Thank you!" "Now take some rest, Oliver will take care of getting the troops prepared, tomorrow you will lead they, if something goes wrong, you must come after me, I will be in Baron I believe, here show this to anyone in your way and you will find me" Amelia give to Maceanas her hair ribbon with a symbol on it, her hair was tied came loose, the brightness and beauty of the blond hair fascinated the soldiers. "Ye..Ye..Yes my liege! It's an honor!" "Save your energy soldier, I see you soon and hope only for good news!" Amelia leaves the HQ and the night finally come, the toughs of the young general was now focused on the possibility of new invaders... |

I'm going to have to vote 'Yes' on who wins. The nature of the attack from so far away would make for some impressive initial gains for the Emerald forces. They'd grab some loot and probably manage to ship some home... then the local forces would assert themselves and, with better supply lines and local support would begin to kick the ever luvin' batcrap out of the invaders. Medieval technology levels make this sort of thing risky and gives all but the most well planned and lead actions a higher than normal chance of long-term failure. Unless you brought lunch and dinner Emerald will be driven back with heavy losses in the end. But they'll probably secure a goodly supply of what their greed brought them for. Both sides bloody, both sides claiming the win... Ethenna (IIRC) never figures out who did it while Emerald ends up with gains, but expensive ones that probably won't bear fruit again due to increased vigilance on Ethenna's part. |

In that night, some happy soldiers celebrate in a tavern located in the suburbs of Zusea. "Na na na na na, Na na na na, Hey Jude!" The song was loud and the soldiers were so drunken as happy, the servants was running one side to another with large glasses of Beer and with lamb pieces. Some travelers and local folks was there too, everyone were celebrating because the Captain Albert received the news that his son was born that afternoon, so he and his men were given two days off. "HAHAHA its a boy Herold, a boy!!!" said Capt. toasting to your friend. "Yes sir! He will continue your legacy and will be a fine man someday!" "What is his name sir?" asked someone sitting among the other soldiers. "It will be Rex, the blood of my blood, the pride of my house, he will carry my sword with honor and will make notable our family name!" "A TOAST TO THE CAPTAIN!" yelled Herald one officer. "May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face. And rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May War Lord hold you in the hollow of His hand!" Herold wished with his glass of beer in his hands. "AMEM for that soldier! hahahahaha LETS DRINK!" shouted the honored captain. The night continued happy, the hours passed by slowly, finally the sun rise again. Oliver began recruiting soldiers for the mission ordered by Amelia, who was then reached the tavern in search of Albert. "I hate to interrupt someone break ya know Mendonza?" said Oliver to his assistant. "I know sir, but general Amelia itself ordered us, we cannot let her down... Captain Albert is one of the finest Knight commander in the entire army, he is the right person for the job" "Yeah, (sigh) well lets proceed." Dismounting their horses, they entered the tavern, the soldiers was sleeping everywhere, the captain was awake smoking his pipe reading the letter sent by his wife. "Captain, I'm glad that you're awake" said Oliver smiling to Albert. "Albert, what brings you in a place likes this and so early?" looking surprised. "Amelia sent us in a mission, we need you and your troop to support the 329 scout troop." "Are you kidding me?" said as he continued to smoke his pipe. "Wish I was sir, but time urges and this are direct orders, the situation is suspicious, maybe invaders coming from the borders near sector 329..." "For War Lord sake..." "And this man will lead you and your troops, Maceanas come here" Maceanas was waiting outside the tavern, when he entered Albert stared at him with a angry face. "No one lead my men beside me Oliver" "Oh please Albert we don't have time for this... Amelia ordered it" "I just cant believe it..." Maceanas saluted captain Albert. "Sir it's an honor to serve at your side!" "Yea, yea whatever... look son how long you are in the military?" "I believe that's 13 years now sir" "I'm in this life for 34 years and if you believe that you will command me, beat it, I never heard a damn about you, prove me that you're worthy and I will lend you the command of my troops" A certain air of discomfort dominated the place. "Gentleman, there is no need for it, were wasting time acting like child's here, Amelia give those orders and we will respect it!" said worried Oliver. "Nothing will disturb this mission sir, if I need to proof something to you, so let it be, what do you want me to do?" "I challenge you to a duel, the first to take down the other wins" "Deal, where are the wooden swords and where it will be?" "Wooden swords? Real man don't duel with wooden swords, we duel with bare hands boy!" Captain Albert was a big man, know as Albert the Bear, he was strong and tall, the years of war forged his physics and his steel mind. Maceanas was an average boy, 24 years old was a kid compared to Albert. "Calm down gentleman, calm down, we wi..." Oliver was interrupted by Maceanas. "I don't fear your strength captain, I respect your greatness but I don't fear your muscles" "Good we can settle thing outside the tavern right now" Currently most part of the soldiers was awaking and some others was already awake since the discussion begins, the captain and the scout walked away from the tavern, Oliver was in panic. "Sweet Nathalia, what should we do Mendonza?" "We could watch it sir, it will boost the morale of the troop hahaha" "Albert will kill the boy with a single blow your fool! Do you imagine what Amelia will do with me when she knows it?" "Well I don't know sir, but I cant loose this fight for nothing!" After few minutes they were in front of the tavern, surrounded by the soldiers and by the curious people that were passing by, everyone wanted to watch a fight likes that, the bear captain against an unknown challenger. "I guess, that captain will kill him with a single blow" said a soldier. "Make your bet man, I bet 20 cesyras that captain will pull his head off!" said another one. The crowd now was bigger than before, bets was going on and 99% was appointing that the winner should be the bear captain. "GO home boy, you don't belong here, you don't have to prove nothing to me!" yelled Albert. "Come on captain, show me what you got!" The fight started, both of them was wearing only common clothes, no armors or plates, just normal vestments, Albert invested with fury against Maceanas, hitting him on the face. The punch was so strong that Maceanas almost passed out, but he didn't fall, spitting blood he smiled to Albert. "Nice one captain, let me show what I've learned patrolling the borders" With a surprising speed Maceanas rushed and kicked Albert in the face, the impact was so strong that two teethes flied away from Albert's mouth.The captain was enraged! "Oh you little son of a b&#$! you will pay for that!" "Hahahaha are you angry bear man, I'm just starting, let's see how cute it will be to have you without any teeth!" "It looks like this is going to be more interesting than I've imagined, come on give me your best shot!" The fight growth, punches and kicks was being delivered in an amazing speed, the crowd was insanely shouting the names of the fighters, after 14 minutes of an impressive fight something happened, Albert looked tired as Maceanas, suddenly they grabbed each other. "You know what...I never fought someone like you before, nor even in the war!" panted Albert. "Thank y...you..you!" The knees started to shake, the sweat dripping mixed with blood. "It...it was...an honor" "Yes...yes..it was!" Both of them passed out at the same time. "It's...it's a DRAW, F#%#!" said a soldier. "Hahahaha impressive, really impressive! Someone call the doctor now!" said Oliver. The crowd couldn't believe on that, for sure the most impressive fight that most of them would see in their hole life, the bets was divided due the draw and the soldiers started to discuss how impressive was to see the bear captain lying in the ground at the side of his challenger. With this,Maceanas conquered the respect not only of Albert, but from all soldiers and citizens in Zusea, later that day they was already recovered with only a few bruises, something unreal. "So...Amelia's judgment was correct again" said Oliver looking from a small distance of they. "Yea that's why she is considered an angel..." answered Mendonza. "Prepare the troops, we will depart tomorrow at night" "Yes sir, anything more?" asked Mendonza. "Pray...pray for that all this is just a mistake, and nothing is going on..." |

While in a camp set up by the general near the emerald mine all are merry. The general raises his glass and yells, "A toast to victory for Emerald!" As usual before a battle, the general opens a bag full of white berries called vilogaberries and grinds them into juice and cleanses his sword with them. While he is doing this, a new soldier with a worried look on his face runs up to him and says, " Me and some of the other men have been hearing screeching." The general looks up at him and looks at the other soldiers. They were making a wierd screeching sound to scare the newbie. General says, "I look to my soldiers to win this battle and you need to pull yourself together." He then stands up and shouts and questions him, "Why are you scared of a little screeching? Pick up that blunt sword and fight Artemis." He orders Artemis to come over and go easy on him. While Artemis was bragging about how easy it would be to beat him he turned around and he immediatly got struck in the back of the head with the wooden sword. Artemis blacked out and the soldiers rushed to him. The general was praising him for learning the lesson of suprise and a melanistic jaguar jumped behind the newbie. As soon as the general saw it he picked up his freshly cleaned sword and thrust the sword into the jaguars stomach. Blood came running down the blade and the jaguar fell dead. |
