Mass Terror

[Helvetius 314]

 

The road was filled with travelers and guards after the church mass. The highway from the cloud temple to the capital of Oren was bustling. Families were traveling, men were drinking, and women cooking. It all broke into terror however when the Red Tide descended from the hills unto the roads. They took women, children, and men hostages. Just like before, they held a pregnant woman close with a dagger to her belly.

 

Many families and individuals were taken while guards were slain trying to protect them. The bandits traveled far to reach their camp in which they tied the commoners to the posts. Little did they know, the Red Tide had a leach amongst them. As the bandits were tying up the crying individuals and their families, with half of them dealing with a raging orc, this leach sent word to Oren. This news reached the bandits as they were still terrorizing and just starting to torture some of the individuals.

 

With haste the bandits fled the camp at news of this large force approaching. Most ran, but some hid or were too injured by the raging orc to escape. Upon the retreat of the Red Tide the leach was spotted untying some of the individuals. In the future he would be branded a traitor, but for now they left. The very few that were too injured or foolish to stay behind despite the orders of the Gang Lords were cut down and killed by Orenian forces. However in the end, the Red Tide completed their goal to spread terror and worry to these families.

 

((It was fun roleplay! There were a lot of people involved on the criminal, orenian, and innocent sides.))

[Stephensj 327]

Harv is still in awe of the raging feorc who walked away after being stabbed through the chest several times.

[Samson Option 9652]

 

Theodosius Visconti leans his forearm along the table in his manor, hearing the complaints of a certain number of Kaldonian citizenry. He stands with a certain grace, placing a hand on an adolescent's shoulder and notes "Worry not, I know where these lads are. They'll be snuffed like vermin from without a soiled hole".

 

((Sorry, can't attend to this as it is Mother's Day in the United States.))

[Jibuis Winterborn (Vinnie) 72]

Vincenzo hears of the news and wonders..

 

A child was kidnapped...

I wonder who these people are?

Poppy is forever scarred!

 

((this was fun, hope to see them again!))

[Demotheus 651]

The aformentioned orc who was in fact only stabbed once but still severely wounded got help from poppy initially, and then was helped back to her home where she lets Shamans tend to her wounds, her memory a haze from the bloodlust that allowed her adrenaline to keep her going.

[Helvetius 314]

Rand taps his finger on the wooden frame of a wall and growls under his breath, "Should the Orenian forces continue to get involved in our affairs, we will take a Chivay next... But instead of holding him or her to ransom, we will just torture the *****."

[Galendar 631]

A small note is sent to the men of the Red Tide.

"Brigands of the Red Tide,

I send this letter in attempts to meet and speak to you of these choices you are making. Upon receiving this bird, send one back to the Imperial Army keep in Kaldonia, I will eagerly await the designated location you wish to speak.
