"Yer Mother was a Gecko!"

[Braxis 813]

Uthor was sitting in his Study in Arethor then looked up and pondered on where could the possible Dragon sightings be? The one that caused the Crown level to be raised. He shrugged as he left his studying making his way to the stables. As a bird with a letter swooped by dropping off a letter Uthor raised a brow as he picked up the letter seeing the seal of Hochmeister Mirtok, he took the letter and began to read it watching it state “Grand Ser, I request all able bodied Lances, Roses, and Knights to Arethor at once. Dragons have been spotted and should be here at Dawn. Make haste my friend” Uthor nods to himself a little shock Mitork was polite in his letter and rushed to the stables. Quickly mounting his Imperial War Horse in the Riven Stables and darted off to Arethor.

As Uthor got there He saw the Hochmeister and the Oren Lances and Oren Knights. And the chapter of the White Rose was coming in falling into formation. Uthor nods and dismounted ordering a squire to take his steed to the stables. Walked into the city as the army marched into position. The Knights and Lances of Oren following Uthor, and the levies and Sariants following Mirtok. Uthor looked up to the sky and shouted “KNIGHTS! LANCES! Get yer arses up on the walls! Bows ready! Yer God Hand’s ready! and aim for its face!” The men nod to Uthor readying their bows and God Hand’s [[Crossbows]] keeping an eye on the sky. As a shadowy figure descends from the sky people getting their weapons ready as someone scoffs. “Its a Damn bat! Is that yer damn Dragon Hochmeister?!” A man from Ildon shouted at him as a rumble happened people freaking out saying “What is this?!” then a few moments of dragon descends upon the sky swooping down breathing down a poisonous cloud slaying some of the soldiers while others flee to safety. The Hochmeister shouting “TAKE COVER!” While Uthor and the men on the wall open fire on Uthor’s Command. A wall of arrows fly towards the dragon. Only to have all of them simply bounce off the dragonscale armor. Uthor cursed as he looked down watching his Uncle scramble to the ships pondering what he was up to as the Dragon flew to the keep. Mirtok was heard shouting in the distance “TO THE KEEP! DEFEND THE PEOPLE AND THE EMPEROR!” Uthor shouts the Archers on the walls going to the keep from the walls shooting at the Dragon with every futile chance and shot. They continue to chase and fire at the Dragon as it circled between the keep and the Gates.

After about an hours of the wasteful circle and arrow shots Uthor narrowed his eyes hearing something at the Docks. He quickly got off the walls with his Cousin Elessar behind him running to the boats. To Boiendl alone maning several cannons. Boiendl shouting “HELP ME WITH THE FAWKING CANNONS!” Uthor and Elessar nod and go to help Boiendl as several Saints and knights show up and began to aid them as well. The Dragon followed the swarm of people to the docks swooping down breathing down fire on some unfortunate souls. Uthor shouts in anger “FIRE!” As the Hochmeister and the Sariants ready thier cannons and the Hochmeister shouting “FIRE” as well. A wall of heavy cobblestone cannon balls fly and hit the dragon shaking it causing it to lose balance for a moment but not doing much damage. Uthor curses as he runs down to the lower quarters of the boat with Boiendl who is now freaking out. As Uthor hits a heavy crate almost tripping his curses as he kicks the box showing many rounds of chain shot. Uthors eyes Widen as he gets his Uncle to help him carry the shot to the cannoneers shouting “USE THE FECKIN’ CHAIN SHOT!” All the men quickly take several rounds loading a round into the cannons readying them as the dragon comes down for a deadly swoop. While Uthor and Mirtok shout “FIRE” As now a volley of chain shots fly towards the dragon ripping bits and piece of it causing much damage as the People of oren shout in glory as they have finally done damage, and quickly go to load another round as the dragon comes by again. Firing once again hitting the dragon again. This time the Dragon turned around bleeding and wounded flying towards solace. As it descends towards Solace people shouting “It Flies North! We must aid Solace!”

From there the battle waged on from Solace Gates with their cannons keeping the dragon at bay. Then a Mounted chase as they followed the Dragon around the Oren territories shooting at it constantly with arrows to attempt to get it away from their homes and families. After hours of this the Dragon seemed to Vanish towards the south towards Hanseti. Uthor and a Handful of men stopped at his town of Riven to restock their weapons and food. Until Uthor looks up seeing the Dragon. Angered from the hours of fighting and tireless travel Uthor shouted in rage at the dragon.

“YE MOTHER WAS A FECKIN’ GECKO!”

Uthor grunts as the dragon stops and then goes and flaps his wings in the air slowly turning around. Narrowing its eyes at Uthor, growling and swooping down. Uthor eyes widen as he remembers the Dragon, that destroyed old Arethor and attacked him, and the Dragon remembers Uthor and the insult he used last time. Uthor sprints off as fast as his armor lest him screaming “FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECK!” As the Dragon chased Uthor around Riven lighting part of his gear on fire, forcing Uthor to jump into a shallow to cleanse himself of the fire. The men chasing the Dragon to Ildon. Uthor quickly runs back to his horse in the stables following them to Ildon to make another stand at the Ildon keep shooting batista's, cannon shots, and boulders from trebuchets at the Dragon. As the Dragon once again fled to the gates of Hanseti. The Army of Oren following the Dragon to Hanseti to fight it on the mountains of Hanseti the battle being the longest there yet. As soon as the army and their leaders thought they won Uthor gazed upon something moving in the distance of the Mountains Mitrok following uthor’s Gaze as they both go “feck” as they see a Drake descend upon them aiding the Dragon in battle. Causing the battle to be elongated by almost a whole day.

The tired army grunted as the Dragon once again moved this time back to Arethor. Both Dragon and Drake hurt from the constant fighting. The army pursued the Drake and Dragon again attempting to end the several day long struggle in Arethor. The brave warriors and defenders of Oren mounted their walls once again and several getting the cannons ready as the flying beasts get closer. They engaged in a final battle there, The drake ploughed through the gates of Arethor destroying it the two towers hardly stood, one was barely safe while the other was crumbling. Uthor shouted as he ordered the Knights off the walls as the drake flew low hitting the bank flying off slowly slumping, the drake getting volleyed by cannons and arrows causing it the Crash into the sea. The Defenders of Oren shout as they are put into a frenzy of the victory the Emperor Now Visible from the crowd in his steel armor. shouting to his people. “Stay Strong people of Oren! Together with the Creators guidance we can slay the last foul demon and end this torment and save our people! Now Fight For Oren! For the Creator! For the People!” Uthor and the Knights, Mirtok and the Sariants and the people of Oren shout as they rally together as the Dragon swoops down once again, Shooting every arrow at the new found weak spots in the dragons armor due to the damage it took over the days of battle. The arrows and bolts doing some damage and as the Dragon swooped down low the warriors took their iron and steel blades striking at the Dragon doing damage to the spots that were weakened and the strong spots damaging some blades and breaking the cheaper ones.

After several more hours of this repetitive process the Dragon roared and darted up towards the sky fleeing the area heavily wounded. Uthor smiled his blade and himself speckled with some of the dragons blood. The people of Oren shouting in Victory as Godfrey shouts to his people “Follow me to the Palace Hero’s of Oren to receive rewards and appraisal” Several hours later every person who raised a weapon in the defence of Oren was rewarded with a Medal of Honor and another with different types of rewards. Uthor grunting and shrugging at the Emperor's side watching the fellow defenders be rewarded a weak smile on his face from the tiring battle. Uthor slowly looked up muttering the words “Praise the Light, for the survival of Oren and its people and Emperor against those foul demons.” He then turned his head to look at the window for a moment keeping an eye on the sky then looking back to the people being rewarded. After the rewards where finnish Uthor left Arethor to return to Riven, the days of battle ended, the dragons drove back, Oren safe for now.
