The Media Wizard 2954 Share Posted May 24, 2021 They came once more. The victories of Haelun’or had made the opponents of elves spiteful and eager. Their longboats were spotted moments before crashing into the Tahorran docks and splitting the wooden planks like tissue paper. The Ferrymen — seeking to redeem themselves for their past failed attack — cascaded from the sides of their longships like water over a cliff's edge. A bell had been rung. The citizens of Elvenesse fled to the Citadel under the order of Lord Commander Amaesil Vuln’miruel; all except one elf who was immediately found and captured by the attacking Ferrymen. The Elvenessi sent their birds across Almaris and locked down the city. There they waited. The warships of Haelun’or and Oren appeared on the eastern horizon. Their soldiers left the ships and marched through the empty streets of Elvenesse to the applause and cheering of the citizens peering out from the safety of the citadel. A battle ensued along the cliffs of Elvenesse as the Ferrymen clambered up trees with the skill and grace of some of the wood elves themselves! Unfortunately, they could not breach the outer wall of the city. The battle shifted to the front gate of the city. The elves held out for as long as they possibly could. Eventually, the Ferrymen left the borders of the nation! Few losses came from the Elvenessi and their allies. This was no victory of slaughter, but a victory of defense. The wood elves who had been devastated by every single raid on their soil for the past twenty years had finally outlasted the Ferrymen in open conflict. Victory, but with a price. The city would sleep soundly this evening. Spoiler 24 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milenkhov 4618 Share Posted May 24, 2021 A duelist survived some clashing - his garb drenched in blood as he was defeated by the grouping of Ferrymen, waking only at the behest of helping hands, he began to recover from his wounds. This was certainly a reckoning. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkee 7356 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Arsenios Moreno, Ferryman of great renown(!), strokes his bare, youthful chin. "They claim victory after losing four of their own, to none of our losses." Swiftly, he snaps his finger, ushering a servant forth. "Send them an abbacus. They struggle with their counting, no?" 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
