The Battle of Leuven

[KBR 2046]

 

THE BATTLE OF LEUVEN

12th of The Deep Cold, 1716

 

The iron of Renatian armour thudded against paths forged from cobblestone, a small contingent moving out to initiate a skirmish ahead of the battle that was to come: their aim to whittle Orenian pride to oblivion. Though, laughter was issued to the opposition in lieu of battle for they had retreated with haste; A pitiful display.

 

 

 

 

The few remaining Orenian Soldiers being cut down as they fled the battlefield. 

 

All those who sacrificed their lives for the Imperium, the High Elven and Orcish people included, knew what was to come; A ferocious battle was looming ahead that would coerce those involved to hoist their banners at their respective cities -- as the prior battle had. For the Marnan forces, it could only be assumed fear ran rampant amongst their ranks after struggling to attain a victory in so long. In contrast, the forces of the Imperium had nothing but surges of confidence, their cavalry of steadfast intentions ready to once more combat the foe matched against them.

 

“BRING OUT THE CAVALRY”, screamed out the Reiter captain Ewan as he ushered a horde of fine horsemen from within the city -- now prepared to mow down the Marnans.

 

“MAEHR'SAE HIYLUN'EHYA”, stated the Okarir'tir in a calm tone of voice. He, akin to the rest of the Sillumiran, were already certain of the outcome of the battle that was about to occur.

 

“KRUG KRUG KRUG”, chanted the Rex Burbur’Lur with ferocity alongside his orcish horde; Ichor would be claimed by the wrathful orcs who saw combat as nothing more than sport.

 

“FOR THE ALL-FATHER!”, sung out Aeyn of the House of Ruric, afterwards solemnly reciting prayers in his mind for the Marnans that would fall in battle.

 

“AVE GODFREY!”, was the last shout to be heard before the battle raged on - ushered out in unison by the united Imperium who were more than prepared to die for their Emperor.

 

And so, it began, the battle initiated with either side positioned at opposite ends of the bridge from Leuven. There was no hesitant pause as arrows rained from the sky piercing men from either side with no remorse. Neither side dare push across the bridge which acted as a tactical choke-point; Such would ultimately result in one’s demise.

 

A reiver brigand rode at the posterior of Renatian forces; One may have deemed this as a proficient course of action, though as the Imperium’s commanders had foreseen such a tactic being employed, their own cavalry was positioned in hiding. They leapt from behind oaken trees and cut off the malignant bandits forces amidst their chase.

 

The already frightened men of Marna heard the screams of dying Reivers and naturally backed retreated from the bridge and into the confines of the Leuvenite tavern. This was all that was needed for the Imperium to pounce; “CHARGE!“ King Alvar harked upon noting the newly created space.

 

And that is where the battle comes to an end, hundreds of men butchered effortlessly as they stowed themselves away in Leuven with fright. Some even resorted to pleading for their lives beneath the tables they had hid beneath; None was given.

 

“The 104th Grievance!” cheered the citizens of Renatus on their way back to their residences.

“WAAAAAAAAAAAGH! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! DA URUK STOMP ULL!” Shouted Jorg at the end of the battle, Smashing off the fifty something arrowheads that had pounded into his shield. He was sadly an Orc with no kills that day, despite being on the frontline of the bridge at the first skirmish

”Ok, cool, you win a lot of skirmishes, but we still haven’t been rewarded with a zone to constantly fight on...” Andriy muses.

[Maury 411]

Somewhere in Arcas, a Snow Elf recalls the countless times Krugmar tried their hand against Fenn and lost.

 

“Yub’ub’hozh!” screams Grugi, swishing some cold water in his mouth to clean znagaznaks from his teeth.

“It’s really impressive that they want to rematch knowingly that they’ll lose AGAIN.”

“Mi lyke how dere iz pikture, but nub orkz ihn dah pikture.” Hedsplitta’Raguk would laugh

[Elite Snipes 3563]

Korgahk’Gorkil Would be in the frontlines of the fighting slaughtering the ranks of the Marna soldiers, Killing them right beside Rex Burbur’Lur, his sword would clash with the armor and flesh of the Marna soldiers and his pet Amber wolf Thraang would be helping Korgahk cut through the enemy, He would charge forward with his great Orc’ish brothers and the Renatian solders, They would collide once more with the enemy at the tavern and easily kill them, after the battle was over and the stench of death and the battle ground filled by the brim with Marna soldiers, he would roar “EHNROK HAZ BLEZZED UHS WIF VICTORI!! WAAAAAGHHHH!! He would raise his sword in the air as he yelled, Followed by the others orcs doing the same.

“Haense hasn’t won a battle yet, why are they still fighting?” asks Godfrey.
