Here We Fall

[Lago 2572]

A frenzied goblin runs around the major cities, flailing his arms in terror, yelling that the end is nigh, and waving a primitive yet detailed painting of Castle Greywynn...

 

((Found this when I went up to have a look at the collapsed Castle Greywynn. It seems the north is locked no more...))

((Nope. If Nug encountered this he'd shrug and set up a cookie stall next to it. XD))

This is most disturbing....

 The day is weather beaten, the sky is a pitch black as clouds roll in from the East. Wind blows through the city ripping posters from boards. The Elven kingdom seems dead and void as the storm rages with all in shelter. Lightning sounds in the distance, illuminating the sky with a fierce blue white glow.

 

 Prince Kaun Crotania sits inside his alchemical laboratory creating a organ system of clays for every known race. He is intent on his work when he hears a faint noise in the storm. He sets down his quill and looks over the diagram one last time before going to his door where he hears the goblin better, but muffled under the down pour of rain.

 

He hears the small goblin yell of the destruction of the Northern gate and its castle barrier. Kaun closely closes his door, a small puddle of water on the floor from the rain. He goes and slouches down next to the diagrams, he murmurs to himself, "They don't want us in the North at all.... We found their fortress and now they are upset..." He looks at the diagrams of every race's internal organs locations.

 

He goes to a closet and retrieves his staff. He then proceeds out his door into the harsh rain. He destination is a single tree. The wind and rain beat hard at his back as he walks the long distance. When he arrives he walks under the canopy and sets his staff into the ground close to the tree. He sits behind it, closer to the tree and begins to meditate.

 

As he meditates the storm rages on, lightning cracking in the distance and rain flowing down the mountains as if springs. Kaun's eyes slowly open from his meditation, he looks around at the storm. "A hive mind.... A hive mind is used by them and something at its center controls it all...." He smiles lightly as the clouds begin to separate, the rain stopping slowly. "If the center of control is removed, all it has done may be removed.... But all that stops us, is that fortress..." Kaun looks further to the North where the clouds remain, the sound of thunder echoing off the mountains. "All that stands... is the minions and fortress..."

Jack Spade pulls back his crossbow, "Good monsters for huntin' ."

Somewhere beyond the ice wall, the abomination that was formerly Drake Lancefeld grins with malice.
