Hell on Earth

#1

Long ago, a war was started. It wasn't any ordinary war like some goblin clans fighting each other, it was much worse. It did start out with a disagreement though; the King of the Orcs and the King of the Goblins sat down with each other to discuss joining forces to attack a very powerful human town. The town would have been wiped out by the two evil forces but the Kings had an argument over battle tactics and other important things, so they declared war on each other. The war was fought on Giant Territory and when the giants heard all the ruckus of war they came out to destroy the things that had disturbed their peace. The troll and ogre clans joined in the war after a while too because they couldn't resist some good fighting. Things like demons soon joined the war too for their own reasons and that's when it started to get of hand.

All the good races like dwarves, elves, and humans, then joined the war to stop the monsters from destroying every single living thing.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Little Thorgon the dwarf marched in the big army of dwarves. Their destination was the city of Cullcasia, the town the King of the Orcs and the King of the Goblins tried to invade almost 2 decades ago.

When the dwarves got to the place they were to meet the other forces King Bulvin (the King of the dwarves) went over to talk to the other Kings. (King Windgrip of the elves, and King Villthrin of the humans.)

"My dwarves are ready." said Bulvin.

"Good. My elves are too. What about your humans King Villthrin." King Wingrip asked.

"They're already talking about how many monsters they're gonna' kill." King Villthrin replied.

"Then let's go!" Bulvin said.

The other two Kings agreed and they got every one ready. By the next hour they were off to the war, perhaps never to come home again.

As the elves, dwarves, and humans (just call them the Peace makers) walked out to the war, things were getting horribly destroyed. Mountains were crumbling by the furocious swings of the giants wacking at the little orcs hiding for safety, and demons were flying in the sky clawing at the giant's faces. Trolls were swinging there giant clubs at goblins and ogres were crushing little puny things like orcs or demons in their bear hug of death. Blood was spattered everywhere but these monster would not give up.

When the Peace makers got there the war really started, their were arrows flying everywhere, some hitting their mark others plopping to the ground harmlessely.

Thorgon knew he was going to be outnumbered, but he didn't know he was going to be outnumered by three vicous ogres. One crept up him to try to give him the back breaking bear hug but Thorgon heard the lumbering idiot and turned around and dug his axe into the ogre's face. The fat monster let out a blood curdling cry then plopped to the ground, dead. The next ogre took his club and swung it into Thorgon's chest not hard enough to break any thing though because the monster had a gashing wound in his arm. The stubby dwarf got up slower then he should have because he had the wind knocked out of him, but to make up for the slow recovery he grabbed a dagger from his belt and threw it into the ogre's eye. Thorgon was then caught off guard by the breath taking bear hug of the last ogre. The stupid thing forgot that Thorgon had and axe so he dug the axe into the ogre's hip and was dropped instantly as the ogre clutched his hip in pain. The dwarf then went up for the killing blow on the ogre, one swipe across the neck and the headless body fell to the ground as Thorgon got his dagger out of the dead ogre's eye and went to find more victims.

Arez, one of the few archers that was not an elf, was killing monsters everywhere. He had just started and he had already killed abou 10 or 11. All archers were taught to watch their backs but this cocky human didn't think that he would get killed from behind so he just kept shooting away. But as the human was shooting an orc was slowly sneaking up on him...

OOC: If anyone decides to jump in and be the orc you can kill Arez.

And from a mountain over looking the battle, a women, dressed in fine armor and clutching a sword as long as her, stood silence as she gazed as bodies began to fall and blood began to flow around the ground. She then bow her head as tears began to fall from her eyes and said to herself, "Hope is yet to come, but the slaughtering come to an end first." She then lifter her head from her sorrow and wiped away her tears and said with a deep breath, "...Well, here I come."

Jay-don was weary from battle. Although a well conditioned warrior, he could not overcome the hours of physical exertion that he had expended, the last of which he had moved with sheer will power alone.

His elfin made mail, light as it was, felt like lead. As he reached the archers, he nearly dropped his sword out of exhaustion.

Chastising himself for his lack of discipline, he pushed along into the safety zone.

Continuing towards the camp he saw a human archer. That's unusual, he thought. Lost in thought and weariness, his heart nearly jumped out of his chest when he nearly bumped into an orc!

Re: Hell on Earth

#5

Arez heard something grunt behind him so he turned around and saw an orc! Quickly, before the orc could attack he grabbed the monster's arm and slung him off the mountain. Arez caught in the corner of his eye, an elf hurrying away, but he thought nothing of it and kept on shooting.

King Bulvin was having trouble fending off some demons that were after him. He had killed one but several were still after him. Thorgon luckily noticed this and ran out to help. He swung at a demon, cutting him clean in half. A demon whacked him with it's tail right across the face, knocking him out cold. The demons assumed he was dead so they kept on going. King Bulvin was outnumbered by several and the demons were coming on hard. They sensed his power and importance and wanted to take him out. Many dwarves eventually came to aid their King and fought the demons off. They dragged the King and Thorgon to the mountains (their unofficial base) and checked for wounds. Luckily they only found bumps and bruises though.

"We are outnumbered hopelessly." the King said to Thorgon once he awoke.

"Do not give up yet your majesty. We have spilled plenty of blood, we still have a chance."

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Meanwhile King Windgrip was letting the blood flow as he was running everywhere killing dozens of monsters. He was running out of breath so he ran to hide behind a giant rock. There was a human behind the rock too. "We need to send a messenger for backup your majesty, I've been watching the battle progress and our men are getting slaughtered." the human said.

"Yes I agree, I will send for backup as soon as I get back up to the mountains. But tell me, if your so worried about our army getting massacred, why are you sitting here watching?" the King asked.

"Oh your majesty if I could I'd be fighting right now, I assure you."

"What are you talking about?"

The man then removed his hand from his gut and showed the King his gashing wound.

"Oh my god!" the King exclaimed. "Here, drink this. It'll numb the pain. This will have to do until we can get you to the doctors." The King gave him a little bottle and some bandages to wrap his wound up in.

When the man was done they fought their way through a maze of monsters until they made it up to the mountains.

"Give this man immediate medical attention." the King said to a doctor.

"Yes sir."

Then the King saw an elf just sitting around and said "You, I want you I want you to get a horse and tell my substitute, King Odin to send out backup."

"Yes your majesty."

Then the King quickly ran back out to battle.

OOC: hope you don't mind me joining in!
IC: Morgan ran steadily through the onslaught her sword swinging this way and that. She had long black hair tied up out of her face and deep, heavy-set blue eye's. Her long ears picked up the slightest noise from behind above below or in front, Her sharp blue eyes could see further than most of her kind. Morgan was heading straight for a giant, many arrows stuck out of it's side. Morgan swang herself onto one of the arrows and began to climb the giants side. The big thing roared and swang it's club to try and hit Morgan of, but she was too fast. Each time the club came to close she would either jump up to the next arrow just narrowly missing or let herself fall to the one beneath. The monster roared angrily as it began to swing it's club faster and faster. Morgan finally reached the monsters shoulder and raised her bow. She hooked an arrow onto the bow and aimed it right into the Giants ear, she shot, the arrow quick as a bullet flew through the giants ear and straight into it's pea sized brain. The arrow had penetrated the soft bone of the monster skull. The giant let out a scream which shook the earth beneath them, Morgan then raised her sword and pulled it across the giants long, wide throat. The creature screamed again and then fell with a bump to the floor. Morgan slide across the wet grass smearing mud all over her heavy dragonhide boots. She then ran off to help others fight.

As the unknown women slide down the mountain, sword in hand, below her laid a small and what appeared to be a well fortified outpost. The build was made of brick the size of a human and plated with strong iron and steel plates bolted together. There were no windows of glass, but holes filled with bars and the only entrance was a giant, armored gate, that was open with a winch connected to it by thick chains. And around the outpost was a long and narrow trench, filled with sharp, long spikes, that had some skeletons and a few still decaying bodies here and there, and from the gate was a long, wooden, flat bridge, stretching from the gate, over the trench, and to the land all around.

When the women came to the bottom of the mountain, she walked towards the bridge, but was confronted by a man. The man wore armor from his chest down and had a dark cape on his back. He had a shaved head, an eye patch over his left eye, and a long scar over the eye that was covered.

"You are late," said the man with his arms crossed.

The women looked back with a stern look in her dark, green eyes. She ran an armored hand through her long, black hair. "I told you getting down a steep and rocky mountain is not easy."

The man laughed, "Well maybe next time, take a risk and join the others and you won't need to be scouting, I know how good you are with the sword. So now when we leave, you make sure your with the others. Better to use your talent while you still last."

The two started to walk to the gate. "Its not death I'm worried about," said the women, "And it not that I'm trying to get past fighting, I'm just waiting until I'm needed." The man looked back. "All the others don't want to fight, they don't get chances to stand back and wait, and just because your my closest friend and are a women, doesn’t mean you should sit around and watch my army fight and even lose lives. You where trained to become a knight by your father because he knew one day you would have to fight, and because you where his only child and he didn‘t have a son, and he knew that you would make a great female knight."

The women then stopped. "Alright, I'll fight, but just to let you know, I've been waiting so I could fight beside you. your my only friend, and your the only one that doesn’t look down on a female knight.

The man then patted her on the back. "Don't worry. Besides, this war should not take too long, we have one of the best armies in the whole world and the dark forces don't even have a chance, for we have the element of surprise.

And from out of nowhere, a massive, flaming ball of fire falls from the sky, barely hitting the outpost and crashes to the ground, leaving a giant crater. The to then looked at the bellow of smoke and then back at each other. "Well first, said the man, We should get the army ready and take out who ever is hurling those, before they get any closer."

Back at the war, things were getting worse and worse by the minute. The orcs had just sent in their backup, dragons! These giant, flying reptiles, were sending the whole place up in flames, including people!

There was one person who wasn't scorching though. The messenger elf was blazing down the trail with his horse to give the message to King Odin to send in backup. The thing this novice did not know though was that he was in clear view of an orcan archer, and before he ever knew what hit him he fell into the endless sleep of death.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Arez was having trouble seeing through the thick, smoke filled the air so he went down the mountain to fight. But when he got down there he found a little more action then he bargained for. While he was sneaking around, a giant had just happened to see him. The giant started swinging at him with his gigantic club witch caused more monsters like demons and trolls and so forth to come after him as well.

Arez was running for his life and was starting to leave them behind until he tripped on a rock and fell. The giant (because he was the closest to Arez) was about to swing the final blow when a dragon came up and attacked him. This sent the giant into a frenzy of fury after the stupid dragon.

The giant was out of the picture but Arez still had to deal with all these rampaging lunatics that were coming after him. He cursed himself for coming down here then went in to finish the monsters off.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Meanwhile, King Villthrin was looking at all the wounded in the mountains.

"How many are injured?" the King asked.

"Well let's just say if those reinforcements don't come soon..." the doctor then let his words sink in.

"I see what you mean. Keep up the good work."

"Yes sir."

The King then walked out of the room and thought about the doctor's words. After he thought it through he ran back to the cave and asked the doctor "Do you have an extra sword I could use?"

Morgan looked to the sky. this was turning out to be her lucky day, She smiled as a dragon swooped down towards her. Morgan opened a pouch on her side and took out a small whistle, she blew into it but no noise came out, the dragon though had stopped midway and was hovering over Morgan before landing on the ground with a thump at Morgans feet, she smiled again. "I knew it would be a good idea to buy a dragon whistle" She laughed pleastantly. An orc had just popped up from behind her and was just about to smash her head in with a hammer when the dragon sprang to life grabbing the orc with its front teeth and throwing it across the battle field. Morgan smiled and mounted the dragon. The dragon was black with gold under the wings, it's long tail had sharp spikes on the end formed into a kind of club. a couple of demons ran at the back of the beast but before they could get to close they had been pulverised by the tail. The dragon took off, Morgan had always had a special gift with beast's and her favorite was of course the dragon. she had a strange abillity to talk to animals and creatures alike and so she began her conversation with the dragon while flaming the giants. "Get the big one's out the way thats what i say" sighed Crush which was the dragon. Crush flew silently through the other dragons getting them when he could.

And from the armored gate, an hour later, a large army of man, elf, and many others poured out and stopped in a clearing across the bridge. The women and the man looked at the size of the army with amusement. The women then said, "How about this, I take one half of the army and head up to The Dark Cliff and invade the dark elf outpost, I think they're the ones throwing the flamming balls. And you take the other half and head out and join the war. That way we can cover you and block the dark elf reinforcment's entry to the war at the same time. Then we will join you." The man rubbed his chin then smiled. "Not bad, you would make a great commander. Alright, we'll go with your tactic, but you take care of them and yourself, those elfs have the very elements at their side."

After the disscusion, the whole army broke into two armies and each half lined up in back of their leader. And as the to lines headed to their destination, the man turned to the women and said, "Felicia," The women turned back. "Remember, your sword is like a friend that is always by you side, keep it with you always and may God be with you all." Felicia smiled back "And also with you, Cortez, said Felicia. Take care." And the two armies began to get farther away from each other every step. Felicia's army headed up to dark elf's outpost, while Cortez's headed to the very heart of the clash between good and evil and neither of the two could think of what was to happen next.

Thorgon was awaken by a doctor tending to his wounds.

"Where is my axe?" Thorgon asked.

"Right here." the doctor replied signaling to his side. "You happened to wake up right at the right time, because now you can, if you so choose, go back out to war."

Thorgon didn't answer. He just grabbed his axe and zipped out of the cave not wanting to miss another minute of the war.

Arez swung his sword at a demon's head but only managed to cut off some of it's wing. He then dove out of the way of an ogre's club. He had to find a way out of this mess, but how? Just when all of the monsters were closing in on him, a stubby dwarf dove into the picture. He got up quickly and swung his axe at a goblin, letting the blade sink in to his stomach. He then took on the ogre that had tried to hit Arez in the beggining.

"A little help here!?" the dwarf yelled at Arez who was still standing in amazment that such a stubby thing could deal so much damage.

"Oh!" Arez said coming to his senses.

As the ogre was distracted with the dwarf Arez ran up behind it an cut it's head off. The two battled it out together until their were no more monsters left in the perimeter.

"Thank you." Arez said to the dwarf.

Thorgon bowed and walked away.

"Wait, if these monsters are battling against eachother then why did the group up to atttack me?"

The monsters hate for the good races, such as dwarves, elves, and humans, outweigh any fude between eachother." Thorgon replied.

"Then why don't they set aside their fudes and go wipe us out in the mountains."

"The monsters aren't that smart nor compramising." And with that Thorgon walked away.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

King Windgrip was soon back at the mountains after slaughtering more monsters.

He aske one of his generals "Any word from the messenger yet?"

Not yet sire. But do not fret, he'll be back soon."

I hope so. Light the torches, dark shall be be coming soon."

"Yes your majesty." The general then ran to get the torches without another word.

Re: Hell on Earth

#13

As night came, Felicia's army, iluminated but torches, big but stealthy, were at the foot of The Dark Cliff, where at the top, the dark elf outpost stood silently with it's shadow looming over the battle. Before they reached the top, Felicia signaled the army to snuff out the torches. After they where out, the army continued on, now in the dark and cloaked by the darkness. Felicia's army was now not to far away form the outpost. Felicia could see that the draw bridge was down and nobody was around. Felicia smiled, for the element of suprise was now at her control. Felicia turned around and and signaled to her army to dismount their horses and to draw their swords and to get ready, for they were now going to storm the outpost and disable their long rang weapons to prevent Cortez and his army for taking fire as the approched the battle.

Felicia waited for a while. She could see that Cortez and his man was now less then a mile from the south west corner from the battle. Felicia then gave her knights the go and the whole army began their way to the outpost. As the army approched the bridge, a dark elf knight, stand on the bridge could see them and quickly turned around back towards the keep of the outpost. "We're being invaded!" the knight cried out. And from hearing the commotion, many more of the dark elven knights began to flood the halls. Once on the bridge, Felicia headed towards the elf at the bridge wintch. And as the bridge began to rise, Felicia quickly ran past the elf and with a clean swipe with her long sword, the elf's head went flying off it's body and landed on the stone ground with a splat from its blood. She then smashed the winch wheel and covered the entering army.
As they entered, Felicia became surrounded by the red-eyed evil creatures with swords of steel and iron and armor of chains and plates. "Go on, attack me!" said Felicia, with her long sword ready. The knights charged at Felicia with full force, but even before the could even get close enough to see the color of her eyes, she quickly cut them down with swift strikes with out get a drop of blood on her.

Once Felicia and her army was in, no one could escape. The outpost was tooken over and because of the suprise attack on the unprepared dark elf army was precise, not one of Felicia's knights were slain.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cortez was now at the battle. His army was now at a clash with a hord of demons. Cortez swung his battle axe violently. Blood covered his whole axe blade and his gloves. After killing over fifty demons, he looked around. "Where are you Felicia?" but looked back and continued fighting.

Felicia and her army stood victorious over the dark elf army. "Well done, now let's get back to Cortez and slay however stands in out way next." Felicia said as they turned back to their horses and headed back to reunite with Cortez and the rest of the army. As the army headed down the dark cliff, a dragon came down in front of them. On the dragon was, what Felicia believed to be another dark elf knight, riding on it, cluching a long, black sword that appeared to have fire blazing on the blade. "Nice job, female knight, you and your army have beaten the dark elfs, but you havn't beaten me. And now, its my turn." The knight then stuck the ground with the long, blazing sword, causing the ground to quake and sending Felicia and the army flying off the horses and covered with rock. The knight the turn towards Cortez and his army and with the sword, he launched a fire ball at him. Cortez didn't see the fire ball coming as he was fighting, but once he saw the demons start running off, he knew something was wrong. "What on earth," he thought, then suddenly, BOOOOM! the fire ball landed behind him and sent him flying off his horse and land back on the ground, seven feet from where he was and became covered with rock, dirt, and bodies of his fellows. The knight then pulled at the chain on the dragon's neck and it went flying away over the mountains

Re: Hell on Earth

Back at the drow (another word for dark elf) outpost, something was stirring. There was one survivor, one of the female captains of the group.

"Matron Shookai will not be pleased. I told he not to bring so many males on the raid."

Matron Shookai is the ruler of house N'shazdin, a very powerful house in the Menzoberanzan (the underground city where the drow live) and the failure of the raid could damage their reputation and could put them out of favor of Lolth, their evil spider godess.

Nyel had her doubts about going back to the Menzoberanzan, if she were to go back, Matron Shookai might have her killed for failing the mission to raid the human outpost, but if she didn't go back the Matron would send another raid to find out what happened to this one and then find her and have her killed anyway. She had to go back.

Nyel pulled out her six headed poisnonous snake whip, ready for anything on her trip back underground. As she came the bridge she saw the body of the watcher lying on the ground. "Stupid men. They deserve to die." Nyel said as she spat on the dead body and walked off.

As she came to the tunnel witch led to the trail to the Menzoberanzan she heard the sounds of war. Nyel decided to get closer to the sounds to see what it was. When she got there she didn't see war, she saw an opportunity to maybe live! So she ran back to the tunnel in a flash, eager to tell Matron Shookai what she saw.

Re: Hell on Earth

Crash! Felicia had busted away from the shroud of rock and dirt that covered her. Several other knights got up from the ground after her. Felicia took off her taddered helmet, dropped it to the ground and picked up her sword. Blood was puring from her forehead from which a rock land on her head. Felicia looked around at what remained of her army. The ground before her was covered with the bodies of those who fought the drow along with their horses, crushed and torn to peices by the ground they once walked on.
She then turned back towards the south west corner where Cortez and his men were fighting, but nothing was left, excepted a few survivors, laying on the ground, crying out for. "We need to get down there and get the survivors back to the outpost," Said Felicia to the others, still facing the battle field.

An hour went by, and Felicia and the others were now at south west corner, helping the wounded knights to their feet. Felicia then helped up the last survivor and then turned back to find Cortez. She seach franticley for her best friend for over ten minutes, but every time she thought she found him, she only found another wounded knight to help. "Cortez, where are you!" cried out Felicia. By the time she desided to stop and rest, the others were already back at the outpost. Felicia sat in silence on a rock, looking down at her feet. She then looked up and then saw something. She then ran over to the object and picked it. It was an axe, stained with blood, from the blade down. And Felicia, knew for a fact that this axe was Cortez's. Felicia then gripped the bloodly hand of the axe fermley and then fell to her knees on the rocky ground crying. "God, how can I go on?" she said to herself, "How can we win this war?" Felicia then raised her head and said, "I must find help." And after that, she then stood back up and started walking, not knowing where she was going to.

Crush flew with all the speed of seven arrows aiming for the other dragons and knocking them out of the sky. Morgan smiled as Crush flew straight through a turmullt of dragons scoring them with His fire. Head for that group of deons down there and get them out of the way Morgan thought to Crush. Crush nodded and turned with ease towards the 15 demons all held tight together slaying what they could. Crush with one fireball sent them flying into the air and plummating down to earth all but demons were killed. Crush swept down and picked one of them up with his huge claws and pierced it's stomach. The demon let out a wild roar and then dropped to the ground from a thousand feet up in the air. Morgan pointed to a lady who had just got up off the ground her eyes were red from crying and was starting to walk away from a pile of dead bodies but behind her was a large ogre which was seemingly trying it's hardest to creep up on the woman. With a blink of an eye Crush was there sinking his razer sharp teeth into the ogres belly and tearing away at it's face with his claws. Once the ogre was dead crush turned towards the woman "Do not worry i am on your side" Said morgan loudly so that the woman could hear her. Morgan awaited her reply.

Re: Hell on Earth

Felicia looked at the orge's dead body then turned back to Morgan. "I am Felicia of the Sun Fire Vanguard. My clan's outpost is to the south. We destroyed the Drow outpost on the Dark cliffs. But we were attacked by one of them, riding a flying monster. After attacking us, it then attacked my captain and his men, while they fought off a whole army of demons. Me and the rest of my men were able to find some survivors, but we couldn't find Cortez, our captain." Felicia then looked down at the axe she held in her hand. "I don't think we're going to make it. We're but an army of, less then hundred. I can't lead my clan without Cortez, He was the greatest leader of all time." Felicia looked at all the dead bodies around her. "The bodies say to me that Cortez is dead, but something tells me he's not, yet. He could be under these rocks now, suffering." She then began to silently cry agian, but stopped after a few seconds. "We need help, all of us, and if you can help us put an end to this evil, it would be an honor."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cortez sat alone, asleep, but was then awaken by a sudden loud noise. "......Oh, my head," he said. "Wait, WHERE AM I?" Cortez found himself, chained to the wall of a prison cell. The cell was dark though cell block were he was liten up by torches, bolted to the walls. Nobody els was in the cells in the whole block. In the distance, Cortez could hear the frightening sounds of dark chanting, rageing fires, and screams from humans and unhumans. The ground seem to be wet with water so, he got up and looked out the prison cell window only to see a sight that chilled his blood. All that he could see was fire. Fire and lava burning around the ground. Cortez could feel something running down his fingers and arms. He then back away from the window and into the light of a torch in his cell. His hands and arms were dripping with blood. Cortez then looked all around the cell to see blood flowing everywhere, from the cracks in the walls to the worn cement between the bricks. Cortez looked at his cloaths and they two were soaked in the red fluid. He tried to wipe away the blood that was all over his face but it did no good, for it dried when he was asleep. "Where on earth on earth am I," screamed Cortez. He then could remember something. He remembered being attacked and being tooken away. That moment, he knew where he was. He was in the Dark Fortress of the Red Mountain, the fortress of the demons.

Morgan nodded "i think i know of which dragon she talks! he is strong and very fast. He is one of the main leaders of the dragon army. but i am better, we have had a fight before but it was only small, now i must kill him." Morgan nodded again and then looked sympathetically at Crush "When this is over i shall free you" She said aloud. She turned back to Felicia "Do not give up hope there are more coming i know High Elf Druitz is sending another army of elves. We shall never stop untill this war is over and we are victorious! Crush can you sense this Cortez?" Crush lifted his mighty head and smelt the air. He then roared "A man was taken alive to one of the dark fortetresses. More than likely the demons. no one dare go there appart from some dragons." Morgan nodded and repeated what Crush had told her to Felicia "Do you know how to fly? not you in person but a dragon?" she awaited felicia's answer.

Re: Hell on Earth

Meanwhile, as Morgan and Felicia were talking, Nyel had just gotten back to House N'shazdin and entered Matron Shookai's throne room.

"Back so soon Nyel?" Shookai asked. "So tell me, how did the raid go?"

"The raid? Oh yes the raid, Ummm...." Nyel began stumbling over her own words.

"How did the raid go Nyel?!" Matron Shookai screamed in frustration.

"Terrible," Nyel blurted out.

"What?"

"The humans found our outpost and attacked us while we were off guard."

Matron Shookai looked at Nyel in digust. "Do you realize what can happen now? Lolth (their evil godess) will have very horrible things done to us for failing the raid!"

Nyel saw the Matron about to signal to her guards to throw her into the dungeon but Nyel blurted out "Wait! Before you kill me I saw something on the surface that could help us regain Lolth's favor and more."

Matron Shookai pause then said "Tell me more."

"I saw a giant war happening, Their were humans, dwarves, giants, ogres, and many more... even elves." (The surface elves were the hated cousins of the drow, and a drow would give up his family to take a swing at them.) If we were to go up and destroy all the surface races we could massively regain Lolth's favor. I even saw other drow up there in the war from other houses." (If a drow house destroyed another drow house, wich is like a castle with thousands of people living inside it, the victorious house would be that much closer to being the #1 house in Lolth's favor.)

Matron Shookai was almost drooling at the mouth at an opportunity such as this. The Matron then yelled to her guards and said "Get an army ready, we have Lolth's favor to regain!" She then turned to Nyel and said "You will be leading the army, and if we win the war and you are still alive you will not be sacraficed."

Nyel nodded and walked off with a smile across her face.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Back at the war King Villthrin had just come back from battle and was in a meeting with the other two Kings.

"The rienforcements have not come yet." King Bulvin said.

King Villthrin nodded and said "When I was out at war I saw a band of people fighting on our side, they were not elves though,"

After short pause of thinking King Windgrip said "I shall send another one of my men to go and look to see what happened to the messenger, you two go and find out who these newcomers are."

The other two Kings nodded their head in approval and walked off.

OOC:This looks like it could fun, Hope you don't mind me jumping in.
IC: The young assassin heard the battle noises from miles away, and at first was stunned by the amount of screams and explosions. He ran up the tallest hill he could find and saw the huge battle with many different races involved. "Well then, a true test of my abilities," young Lith muttered to himself. He ran at full speed for a while, and abruptly ran into a group or ten goblins forcing back two orcs and an orge. Katanas already drawn, Lith leapt at the goblins without caution. Smashing ones skull with a heavy downward chop and kicking another in the face, he immediately took an offensive position, even being in the middle of eight very surprised and very weak goblins, he realized his mistake. A spear came at his face, and he double tapped it aside with one blade, and thrusting the other into the creatures face. The orcs and ogre by this time had realized the dark undertones to this new combatants skin.

"Half drow?" one orc commented to his similarly stupid companion. "Me thinks it is a half drow elf," the other replied. "Drow?" the ogre said in orcish tounge, "What would half drow elf be doing here?"

By this time there were only three goblins left, one dead in the initial assault, three with no heads on their bodies, two clutching at mortal wounds, and one knocked out cold from the first kick. Lith reversed his grip on his left katana and spun to his right, the goblins had surrounded him, but all three fell with deep gashed on their necks. The two orcs smiled stupidly and saluted the half drow, who promptly cut them down with a blinding double slash, taking both orc's heads. The ogre look confused, then enraged, and swung his massive club at the assassin, who stepped back out of reach and drove in.

Only to get punched square in the face by the ogre's other hand. Must remember not to underestimate these idiots anymore, Lith thought to himself as he sheathed a katana, pulled the small handcrossbow off his belt, loaded it and shot the beast in its chest. The ogre ripped the puny little bolt from its chest and grinned, only to fall face first in the mud, paralyzed by the drow made poison on the bolt. "See, evil ogre, I underestimated you, and you made the same mistake of me, but your's was worse than mine by far," Lith said as he slowly cut the creatures throat. Lith cleaned his katanas off on one of the orc's tunics and ran off yet again for the battle.

Crush roared as a smaller battle seemed to be taken place between a young man and a few gblins, ogres and two orcs "This new arrival is strong and he seems to be on our side" Morgan nodded and the looked up at the hill. "Well we shall see if he needs any help. Crush rose from the floor and soared over to the newcomer. Crush landed with a thump right in front of the new arrival "We do not wish to fight with you" said morgan as she slipped down from the dragons neck and landed with a soft thud on the blood soaked blood. She placed one hand on the dragons leg and smiled at the young man.

Lith saw the dragon and its rider heading his way and felt an itstant wave of dread. GREAT! First outnumbered and now a dragon! he thought to himself. They dragon landed and Lith saw its rider dismount and talk to him. "Well, I dought I would be much of a fight for a dragon if you were here to fight, so I'll count my blessings," Lith replied. He scanned the area, just in case this was a set-up, but he noticed no enemies in the trees. Thinking to himself, he felt foolish, for if this woman and her huge mount had wanted him dead, he would have already been caught in the dragon's breath. "Would you mind giving me a ride and filling me in on the noises of war coming from that way?" he asked as he pointed towards the huge battle. Lith then realized his nase had been broke when he felt the blood dripping from his nose to his chest, his leather chest garb had somehow been soaked through. "My greatest appologies, good lady, I hadn't realized the orge would score a hit, bastard seems to have broke my nose." Lith grimaced with pain as he reset his nose and waited for her reply.

Morgan smiled "it won't be pretty" she walked over to the man and handed him a small handerkerchief to wipe away the blood. She turned and stepped onto the beasts foot which raised and placed Morgan on it's neck "Will you show this man the destruction" Asked Morgan "of course as long as he does not try and kill me while he is on my back" Morgan smiled "Why would you say that?" the dragon roared "he has strength in him! stronger than most." Morgan nodded. "climb aboard and we shall show you excatly what has been going on in this world" Morgan smiled and gestured for the man to be hoisted onto the dragon's neck behind her.

Re: Hell on Earth

#24

"Would be my pleasure to ride on the back of such a grand dragon," Lith replied to the woman. After wiping the blood from his face, and what he could from his leather, Lith accepted the help onto the dragon's back. "This seems like it could be a fun ride," he said smiling. He wrapped his arms around her waist and waited for the dragon to lift off.

Re: Hell on Earth

#25

OOC: Welcome Lith, and to everyone, please check my last post again, for some reason something cut some of my post off, but I corrected it.

Nightfall had now come and the sky was pitch black, the only thing that allowed you to barely see was the thousands of torches that were lit everywhere.

Thorgon was running around with a torch in one hand and his axe in the other, he had cut down a few goblins but had taken some hits himeself. Holding the torch enabled him siverely but he pressed on. He saw an ogre and dug his axe into the thing's back. The ogre roared and emmediately turned around and whacked Thorgon with it's giant club. This caused the dwarf to drop the torch and fall to the ground.

Thorgon watched the thing plop to the ground and catch the ground near them on fire. The dwarf cursed his bad luck but accepted it and threw the axe into the ogre's face. The thing fell to the ground lifelessly and Thorgon got his axe and started to try to blindly make it up to the mountains.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Arez, had luckily made it back up to the mountains before nightfall and tried to collect his thoughts. He had heard that drow were coming from their underworld to fight, or already had and if this was true, the peacemaker army and all the other monsters would surely be killed because the drow had fantastic eyesight in the darkness and would slay the other races easily. But then again, Arez thought, they vonerable in the daytime because their eyes are sensative to light. The more Arez thought, the more confuse he became so he just decided to stop thinking and start sleeping, and that's exaclty what he did.

Re: Hell on Earth

#26

Felicia looked at crush for a second then back at Morgan. I tried, but I was never go at keeping the dragon under my control or saying on it, but if I your suggesting me to come with you, I will go. But we will need to stop at my outpost first, I must tell the others where Cortez might be imprisoned at.

_____________________________________________________________________

Cortez sat in the middle of the dark cell. His stomach started to burn with hunger. He felt around in his pockets for anything, but his captures had stripped his of his supplies. His hunger began to grow and so he decided to turn his gaze into the direction of a large, fat rat sitting in the corner off to his left. a grin appeared on his face, following a raise of his right eye brow. He then thought how was going to "clean" it with out having to ruin the plump meat of it. He then remember that he kept a small dagger, sheathed inside his right boot. Cortez then pulled out the dagger and ran a thumb across its edge. "hmm, pretty sharp, just like it was when first got it," he said as turned back to his dinner. Cortez crept up to the rat silently. The rat was licking up blood from a pool when it notice a large shadow looming over. The rat gave out a little squeak then darted towards the cell bars. It was almost out and away from its hungry predator, but Cortez quickly dropped a hand down onto the rat. He felt the rat and was amazed of its size. Cortez lifted his head up to heaven with great thanks. "Thanks to you lord, he said as he quickly snapped the rats neck. It gave out a final squeak before it died. Cortez then prepared the rat before it was to be consumed. After, he then took down the torch inside his cell and with it, he would cook his dinner.

After eating his small, but satisfying dinner, He decided he would try to get some sleep for he had a feeling that if he was going to be imprisoned in the walls of the most evil place on the face of the earth until he dies or is killed, he would like to be up and ready for it and give one last fight for his escape. Cortez's eyes were almost closed when he heard the cell block door slam open. He could see something large walking towards his cell with deep, loud stomps. The figure then unlocked Cortez's cell then kicked it open. Cortez remained on the grown looking, up. "Greetings, have you decided to let me go, so I can finish kicking you all back down to Hell?" The figure gave out a loud growl. It then reached out and grabbed Cortez by the arm and began dragging him out of the cell and out of cell block.

It seemed to him like he was being dragged for hours. From being dragged up and down, he only wished it would end. The figure had dragged Cortez to large door with strange and unholy symbols. On the other side came the sounds of chanting. Words that Cortez has never heard. The door opened and he was drugged in. Once he saw what was in the room, was became frozen in fear with his eye shut. He could feel that he was being stripped from his armor and his shirt. He then could feel that he ropes around his hands and legs and was being tied to what appeared to him was a wall. The ropes became tite. The chanting grew louder and louder but then became silent and the only sounds were the sounds of fire. Cortez knew that there was nothing else to do so he opened his eyes but remained still. All around him where demons and none of them were able to be described. All about the walls and ground was blood, symbols showing unholyness and blasphemy, and words written in blood all over the walls, and a roaring fire in the middle of the room. "NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO TO ME, GOD SHALL BE WITH ME!," shouted Cortez. He then spat at the demons. "d**nED SOULS, RETURN TO HELL, BEGONE!!!"

Morgan smiled as Crush took off with such rapidness that she and Lith rocked dangerously to one side. Crush flew back towards felicia and landed with a thump "We shall go to your outpost and then on to the demon place! but first i am to show this man the battle he has only just got here." Crush rose again and flew towards the none stop screaming. the battle raged below blood had soaked into each bit of the ground it could find, bodies lay strewn around on the floor some to mangled to see if it was female of male others just with mere wounds led wimpering and writhing on the ground in agony. Morgan shook her head "This is the doing of great evil. take a good look i told it it wouldn't be pretty."

Re: Hell on Earth

#28

Felicia looked about the site of the massacre. "My God, who is responsible for this?" she said. "What ever did this, it must be stopped." Felicia the turned to Morgan with a worried look. "I only hope it hasn’t over ran my outpost."

Suddenly, a sound broke the silence and before crush appeared the drow knight the brought the agony apone Felicia and the others. The knight was floating in mid air in a cloud of burning colors of red, yellow, and orange.

"Ah, I see you have finally wiped the tears of weakness, she-knight," said the knight.

"You sicken me," said Felicia as she took out a thrown knife that threw it." Little did Felicia know that the drow knight was only in mind, so the dagger when flying threw the image she could see. Once the dagger when threw the apparition, the image of the drow had disappeared from her mind.

She then looked back at Morgan, then to Lith, confessed.

_____________________________________________________________________

Cortez remained tied to the wall as the demons began tormenting him. "Release me at once!, Cortez demanded. Suddenly, a demon dropped one of its hairy hands down on a drums and all the others remained silent. The demon with the drums then stood up and spoke with a dark sinister voice.

"Welcome to our domain, mortal, and your temporary home."

"Will you just release me from this house of hell?," said Cortez pulling at the ropes. "Theres is nothing more you can do to me."

"That maybe so, said the demon. There is nothing more we can do, but there still is allot more what our leader can do."

"Who's that, Satin?," asked Cortez with another spit. "

"The leader of this mighty house, Sheloryith, the queen." replied the demon. She will be very pleased with your presences."

Spare me of your mockery of truth," shouted Cortez, If it would please your, your leader, why won't you kill me now so I dwell in Heaven with my father and mother?"

Fresh flesh and blood are her favorite gifts of offerings. So know you know why there is no scene in killing you know." replied the demon.

If you think your going to break me of my belief in God, your very wrong," shouted Cortez

The demon began to laugh and all the others joined in. "We'll see about that, said the demon with a smile.

The demon that tied Cortez to the wall had now released him and he began his way to the red door across the room, with Cortez, dragging behind.

The demon had opened the door and threw Cortez inside and slammed the door closed whiched was then locked with a strange and magical seal. All around was darkness and not a single light from the room he came from shined from under the door. He looked all around threw the darkness. He then got up and felt around for a wall. As he walked, he could feel something under his and things hanging around started hitting him in the face.

"What the hell is this place," screamed Cortez.

Suddenly, the room became illuminated and all around Cortez lied skeletons, stripped of every piece of flesh. Cortez began to scream from the sight. Then the lights when out, but then after a few seconds, the light flashed on and in front of Cortez stood a dark, masked figure that quickly disappeared into the darkness. Cortez's heart began to pound from the seeing it. He began to feel weak so he fell to the ground and remained still. The lights kept flashing on and off as if a day was going by every second. The figure kept appearing and disappearing all around the place and Cortez became frozen in fear of it. After a minute, the lights became still. Cortez then got back up and then quickly turned around. There, sitting on a stone throne was a women dressed in a dark robe. Her head was down but She looked up to Cortez. She wore a sinister, yet beautifully crafted masked with solid blue glass lens.

"So are you the one that is supposed to kill,?" asked Cortez

The women didn't say anything. She then raised her hand and Cortez was lifted from the ground.

"I am the queen, I am Sheloryith," she said.

Cortez then watched as his chest was being ripped open. He looked down to see his heart beating. Cortez was freaked out and began to scream for he could not feel the pain he would have. Sheloryith then dropped her arm and Cortez fell to the ground. He looked at his chest and there wasn’t anything. He was breathing so fast the he thought he was going to pass out.

"What do you want with me?," screamed Cortez

"You are going to help me," said Sheloryith from under her mask, because if you don't, I will destroy your whole clan, starting with the she-knight.

"Felicia, she's alive?" asked Cortez

"Oh yes. Sorry she doesn't think the same way," replied Sheloryith. "If you help me, you will be freed."

"If you haven't noticed by know, I don't care about what is to happen to me, I only care for my friends," said Cortez sternly. "Fine, I'll help you, but, just don't harm her or my clan."

"Very well then," said Sheloryith, "But just to make sure I have your trust, your going to be whipped into my control.

"what?" asked Cortez

Seconds later, Cortez was brought back to the wall and was toured. If he was to live, he would be able to accomplish his task. But if he was to die, then...well, the use? No matter if it was blades or brimstone, Cortez new he has to live. dieing was not an option

Re: Hell on Earth

#29

morgan turned confusion on her face "Who was that?" Morgan shook her head "I am not sure how this all started, i was just sent to help out." Morgan grimaced as she looked down at the wreckage. Crush roared "Evil man just jumps out in front of a dragon what does he want to be killed " Morgan gave a small smile "Did you know who he was Crush?" Crush shook his big head and then flew down towards a small patch of goblins who were fighting with a small girl no older than 18. The girl was struggling with the 10 goblins surronding her. Crush blew a few fireballs into the crowd and scattered the goblins who all went running the girl finished the rest of them off and then ran off waving a thanks to the dragon which helped her. Morgan looked down at the young girl as she ran off to join in another battle "they are recruiting younger and younger" Morgan shook her head and then looked out towards the horizan "I remeber when the world was at peace with everyone and everything on it that was the good days" Crush sped off in the other direction towards the darklands.

Lith watched the woman and dragon commune quietly for a while. He was surprised at the damage this war had caused. "Excuse me, miss, but how will my blades prove to be of help when I am riding on a dragon. I see the bodies and the wreakage, but I do wish to fight with the goodly races," Lith said over the sound of the wind in his ears. He was getting more and more amazed at this woman who could ride a dragon, but was disappointed he had never learned hourseback archey, let alone dragon back. "I wish to help these people, can not your valiant dragon fight on his own, whilst you and myself have some fun?" Lith let the fact he was attraced to this woman go unannounced, but had a feeling the dragon knew, somehow.

Re: Hell on Earth

#31

Sheloryith sat on the thrown in the silent darkness of the chamber of the dead. After awhile, the became illuminated and into the room, crept two demons, carrying Cortez by his arms and legs. The stopped in front of Sheloryith and dropped Cortez and the bone-covered ground. Sheloryith stood up and signaled the demons to leave. She looked down at the limp warrior. Cortez was covered with deep cuts on his back. His hands and feet had burn marks. His arms and legs had large red marks from ropes and chains. The few cloths he had were turn up and his eye patch was tooken, revealing the eye was render useless years ago.

Sheloryith lifted Cortez with her powers. "Well Cortez," said Sheloryith. "You look like I have your trust now and you are really for your task." Cortez held up his head. ".....Just give me the word, And I'll be on my way," said Cortez quietly. Sheloryith then sat back down and Cortez slumped to the ground and into a pile of bones. "Alright Cortez, What you are about to is embark on a mission to destroy someone," she said. "I need you to destroy the drow Knight, Zwiyyyrithrow, the one that attacked you and your army along with my brothers and sisters that fought with you at the south west corner. We both know this battle of wits and power will be a much cleaner one with the drow out of the way. So if you kill Zwiyyyrithrow, his branch to the drow army will be with out a commander and the will be force back to there fortress and the remaining drow armies will be weaker ones that know little about fighting." Cortez then got back up. "You want me to kill this monster so we can continue this battle? This is a war that you have caused, this hell on earth is all your doing!" Cortez then took a swing at Sheloryith but was blown back by a force of power and hit the wall in back of him.

"Like I said," Sheloryith continued. "You kill him and we'll continue fighting. We maybe followers of shadow, but like everyone else, we need a break too. And If it will make you feel better, we'll remain in our fortress until Zwiyyyrithrow is dead." Cortez then thought for a second. "Alright, but you must provide me with my new armor and weapon." "Of course, we wouldn't send you on a mission with out something to fight with. Do you really think we would send you out there just to die?"

Re: Hell on Earth

#32

Crush looked over to Lith as he asked Morgan if Morgan and himself could fight on the ground and the dragon fight alone "tell the man that a dragon never fights without it's rider a dragon needs a captain just like humans" Morgan nodded and repeated what Crush said to her "although it sounds a good idea if Crush gets caught by one of the other dragon riders then he will have no will of his own" Morgan smiled as Crush whispered something to her. but it is not hard to fight on dragon back Morgan twisted round in her seat and handed a large bow and a few arrows over to Lith "just aim true and fire! those arrows never miss!" Crush flew towards the ground near a group of ogres "fight on the ground with them i will stay in the air until you are ready to climb aboard again" Morgan unsheated her sword and jumped down from Crush's back "Come on i havent fought on the ground for a while and crush here gives me permission" she smiled seductivy at Lith and then ran into the middle of the group of ogres and sliced one of there heads off.

Re: Hell on Earth

#33

Lith just smiled at the answer, he had aof course heard that of dragons, he was no fool. He took the bow and arrows, strapped the arrows to his leg and slung the bow on his shoulder. He followed the woman into the fight, blades drawn, and instantly began his deadly dance. A few ogres ran right at him, and he suddenly stopped moving when one swung. Everything slowed down, he saw the massive fist coming for him, he dipped under it and put his left katana into the creatures chin, pressing the strike through is mouth into its brain. The others stopped and Lith ran at them, the first swung a large club, which Lith rolled under and effectivly gutted the stupid critter. A third caught him hard in the shoulder, driving his blade in more than needed and it caught on the orge's spine. "S**t," Lith whispered, as he let go and grabbed his other with both hands, and spun in a deadly circle, taking off the creatures arm, then other arm, then head. Lith kicked his stuck blade free and grabbed it, then put his back to the beautiful female and said loud enough for her to hear, "Back to back, let them come, just keep rotating, the swift changing of styles often puts humanoids out of there skill range. But only if you know the style," he beheaded a small goblin as it ran past and turned to face her. "But only if you'd like, shall we do that style?"

Re: Hell on Earth

#34

Felicia watched as Morgan and Lith prepared to fight the ogres. She then heard something running with great strength behind her. Felicia quickly turned to an ogre and trusted her great long sword up into the its body and the blade stuck came out though the top of its head. The ogre just stood attached to the blade, twitching. Felicia just watched without pity or care, but then pulled out the sword and quickly spun around and sliced the still twitching beast in half. Blood had splattered around Felicia.

"Is that it, one simple monster?" she said to herself.

Then,two more ogres headed for Felicia, one in back of the other. Felicia took out Cortez's axe and threw it at the leading ogre and hit it in the chest, knocking it on top of the ogre in back of it. She then jumped onto the stunned ogre and pulled out the axe. The ogre gave out a loud roar from the pain. The two tried to get back on their feet, Felicia then raise her sword in to the air and forced it back down on to the ogre's face, which then impaled the other through its throat. They were both dead seconds after. Felicia then pulled out the sword, but continued to stabbing the dead bodies. Blood was everywhere. All the ground, all over Felicia, and her sword. After a minute, she then jumped back onto the ground, soaked as if it was raining blood. Felicia was now breathing heavily. Anger and revenge had clouded her mind. Nobody now was going to stand in her way for getting her best friend back. Felicia then looked around to see more ogres heading straight for her. She then raised her weapons and ran towards them, ready for another round of vicious and ruthless attacks.

Nyel was beggining to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Her army was only around 800 solders but with how skilled and dangerously nimble the drow were she knew that her army would put up a good fight.

The first thing she had to do however was find a sheltered place away from the sun where they could hide during the daytime. When she got to the surface she felt a searing sting in her eyes but she stuck it out.

Nyel pulled out her venomous snake whip and started moving her army through the mountains to search for a cave for their hideout.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

King Villthrin moved slowly through the ranks of monsters everywhere and had came in sight of Felicia.

King Bulvin didn't come with Villthrin because he stayed in the mountains to help the doctors with the sudden over flow of injured so Villthrin was on his own.

When he came closer to Felicia he saw she was fighting of some ogres so to get his mission moving on faster he jumped in to help her.

After they were done fighting King Villthrin went over to Felicia and said "Exuse me my lady but would you mind telling me who you are? I would like to know the name of the group that came form the mountains to help us in this war so I can thank them properly."

Re: Hell on Earth

#36

Morgan smiled and nodded she backed up to Lith and then swang her sword in a vertical arch slicing off one of the ogres heads. she countinued to swing her sword around and around in front of her cutting into ogres that ran at her. Crush was hovering just over the fight when a giant started to run towards the group. Crush flew quickly towards it and then landed on it's back digging his claws into it's back and biting into it's shoulder. the giant screamed as blood began pouring down it's back and from it's shoulder. The giant flew forwards landing on it's big fat face Crush tore at it's flesh rendering the giant helpless as Crush tore it apart. Crush lifted his head as blood dribbled down his face and the giant was no more. Crush took flight once again and hovered wating over the battle.

Re: Hell on Earth

#37

Lith turned just in time to see the dragon take down a giant in split second. "Wow," he said slightly stunned, only to take a club to the ribs from one of the few remaining ogres he was fighting. "D**n it all to hell!" he yelled in pain as he fell into a sidewayss roll and instantly came to his feet with three of the beast already on him. He slashed one's foot, and it fell trying to balance, a second swung another club and Lith ducked under it and drove in, but when this one tried to catch him with a punch, he promptly put his left hand blade in the path, and the brute cut its hand in half. The third ogre carried two clubs, an odd style, but one Lith knew well enough. He used one of his drow innate abilities and dropped a globe of imprenatrable darkness over it and ran into the welcomed blackness. The orge thought it had gone blind for a second, then felt a katana bite into his thigh, then another into his gut, then one to his chest. He realized he could still hear and swung both clubs down hard, but Lith heard the grunt and rolled to the side, hamstringing the beast easiliy, and as it fell he guessed and took its head, heading a small rolling sound he knew he had made the right strike. He ran out of the globe, blades spinning arounf him, and quickly finished the other two ogres off. "Well now, I think I might need a priest when the rush of battle fades," he stated to the woman. "And as all know, a globe like that is a drow ability. I have it as I am half drow, and if my father's people come, do not fear, I hate them as much as all do," he said, and then grimaced with pain. He sheathed his blades and quickly lifted his leather to reveal a large bruise already forming. He fell to his knees cluching the wound. "I underestimate these bastards to much," he stated. He saw an orc come from behind a rock and run at the woman. He quickly grabbed his dagger from his right boot and launched it at the orc, taking it clean in the eye. He didn't even move to retrieve the dagger, just controlling the pain from the throw was enough. "I think they might be broken," he stated as he fell face first to the ground, passing out from pain.

Re: Hell on Earth

#38

Felicia gazed at King Villthrin, ready to fight if it was a trick, but she then sheathed her sword and hung the axe from her belt. "I am Felicia of the Sun Fire Vanguard." She said taking off her helmet. She pulled back the chainmail from her head and ran her blood-crusted glove. "I, and my friends are on our way to the dark lands. One of them as offered to help me free my commander from the demons. The rest of my clan is at the outpost to the," Felicia then Looked around for a second then pointed to the south. "If you follow me, I can introduce you to my friends, and by the way, don't thank us, we're all in this war together, every person on earth.

____________________________________________________________________

Zwiyyyrithrow was now flying over high mountains. He looked all around the below. The nightmare that had consumed the face of the world was now reaching the peaks of the mountains. Then from the corner of his eye, he noticed a dark figure walking the hills. It was Nyel. See that it was a fellow drow, Zwiyyyrithrow then tugged at the rope around his dragons neck and it took off down to her. The dragon landed in front of Nyel and Zwiyyyrithrow dismounted it and walked over.

Morgan summoned Crush down to her, She lifted Lith up and placed him on the dragons back "We must take him to the medics they will be able to help" Crush nodded and took of into the air. Morgan told crush to go to the west the medics would be there. On the way Crush flew over Felicia "Felicia we are taking Lith to the medics i will be back soon and then we will go to the darklands and we shall destroy them and retrieve your friend"

Re: Hell on Earth

Lith vaguely felt the dragon lift off, the pain in his chest was a dull ache. He dreamt he was flying away into nothingness. Yet he knew he wasn't dead, or he wouldn't feel anything. He closed his eyes and drifted peacfully into complete blackness.
