SOMEWHERE IN A SNOWY MOUNTAIN RANGE
Winds howl and snow falls over a vast mountain range. And in middle of a snow covered field lies a black and red dragon curled around Evunial who's head was laying on the dragons stomach. The dragon was laying on a patch of green grass protected from the snow and the cold by a golden magic barrier. Evunial stirred before opening his eyes. "Huh? Where am I?" Evunial said as his eyes took in his surroundings. The sky above him was obscured by snow and wind but he could feel the soft grass below him. "What's this?" he thought aloud as he felt the scaled hide behind his head. "Ah High Commander, you are awake!" A deep and primal voice came from behind him causing him to jump up and face its owner. "Calagon?" Evunial said confused. The dragon had wide emerald eyes that sat gracefully within the creature's horned, angular skull, which gave the creature a rather intimidating looking appearance. Several large horns sat atop its head, just above its thick, curved ears. Several rows of small horns rans down the sides of each of its jaw lines. Its nose was long and has two thick, oval nostrils and there were horns on its chin. Several huge teeth poked out from the side of its mouth and gave a slight hint at the terror hiding inside.
A long thick neck ran down from its head and into a colossal body. The top was covered in thick scales and rows of spikes ran down its spine. Its bottom was covered in radiant skin and was colored a lighter red and black than the rest of its body.Four muscular limbs carried its body and allowed the creature to stand imposing and illustrious. Each limb had 4 digits, each of which ended in razor like claws seemingly made of obsidian.
Colossal wings grew starting from just above its shoulders and ended at the middle of its back. The wings were bladed in structure,the skin of the wings seemed to glow as if made from fire itself and sharp tips grew from each ending like massive spears.Its massive tail ended in a gentle point and was covered in the same thick scales as its body.
"(Wait last I checked Calagon's dragon form didn't have a speech feature)" Evunial Thought to himself. "We thought you had fallen into the sleep of the Evanuris." Calalgon said as he stood, his massive form cramped within the barrier, his voice filled with relief. "Aenor and I were fully prepared to watch over you until you awoke even if it took a millenia." The dragon said resolute. "Well how long was I asleep?" Evunial asked. "A day and a half." The dragon said plainly. "Almost two days!?" The silver elf asked shocked. Calagon just nodded in response. "You watched over me all that time? Thank you, Calagon, that means a lot to me." Evunial said with a kind smile. Calalgon was taken-a-back but quickly recovered. "No thanks needed my Lord, it is my honor and sacred duty to serve and watch over The High Commander of Lokelonde." Evunial stood processing the situation. "(Holy crap I am having an actual conversation with Calagon, this is freaking awesome!! gotta tell Azanar about this."
Evunial raised his right hand and poked the air. "Huh..where is my console?" Evunial asked as he continued poking the air. "I can't message Azanar without my console.. or a GM to report a problem, This is really bad I..." "(Wait freaking out won't help the situation. Deal now..Freak out later.)" He then took a deep breath and calmed down, He then looked at the dragon before him. "Where are we Calagon?" "I am not sure my Lord, one moment we were flying over the swan sea and the next we were in a snow storm. I could not react fast enough.." Evunial could feel the shame coming of the Dragon He walked up and placed his hand upon the beast of myth. "It's ok Calagon you couldn't have known, It's not your fault..." Evunial stopped as he felt Calagon's scales against his hand. "(No way!! I can feel the individual scales on my finger tips and the heat radiating from his hide.)" Calalgon noticed his surprise. "What is it Commander." The Dragon asked. " Uh.. Nothing Calagon" He said as he took his hand off of The Dragon and examined it. "( Holy shit!! I feel my breath quickening, the blood rushing through my vains, the grass under my feet as if I wasn't wearing boots. This is more then just feeling what my Avatar does...I am my Avatar!)"
Evunial then looked up regaining his composer and looked around before speaking. "Where is Aenor?" The Elven Commander asked. "Ah He thought it would be best if I kept watch over you while he went to find a suitable location for your sleep chamber." "(Hmmm even making decisions on their own, there was no A.I even close to this advanced in Yggdrasil.)" "Well at least your barrier magic still works." Evunial said as he looked up at the barrier. let's see what else works." Evunial said as he backed up a bit. "Calagon you look a little cramped in here, Take your Elven form." " Right away Commander CHANGE FORM (ELVEN).
A magic Aura shined around The great beast enveloping him and then compressing into a humanoid shape of energy before dissipating revealing The dragon's new form. He had light skin, green eyes, and black spiky hair with red streaks throughout. He was wearing red leather armor with green and gold accents going down chest and pouldrens, with a heavy red fur cloak with the same accents going down the back. "You were right commander this does feel better." The Dragon turned elf said as he stretched. "Haha I thought it would." The commander said with a smile. "Now then how about we try finding Aenor and figure out where we are." Evunial suggested. "Sounds good Commander." The dragon replied.
Evunial turned ready to leave but then stoped as he listened to an approaching sound. It was soft and lite like a feather tapping the snow. "( That's Aenor I can hear him getting closer. Elven senses are amazing.This is Awesome!!!)"
Evunial Thought filled with excitement but regained his composer before speaking. "Never mind Calagon, looks like he is already here." The Silver Elf said as Aenor came through the barrier he was now wearing a heavy fur variant of the hooded black and red dragon leather armor he was wearing before with a heavy black fur cloak and had a white and gold Yue bow equiped with a quiver filled with black arrows. Aenor ran to Evunial before speaking. "Díhen- nin!! Hîr vuin." (You are awake!! My lord.) Evunial was surprised by the out burst. "( He speaks Elven! Hmmm out of the three main Elven languages we used for the guild npcs two being from lord of the rings series and the last being from The Dragon age games I think I wrote in the elven dialect of Sindairn from Lord of the Rings as his main language mainly because it was the one I am most fluent in. Evunial then noticed the sad look on Aenor who then spoke. "Goheno nin" (I failed you.) Evunial looked at Aenor confused. "Huh... Am man theled?" (How so?) Evunial asked. "Im il ú- dorth- bui cín haer." (I did not stay by your side.) The Archer said with his head down. "Û! Agoreg vae." (Non sense! You did good). Evunial said with a bright smile as he placed his hands on Aenor's shoulders causing Aenor to look up at his commander who continued. "Im guren *glassui an cín polod." (I thank you from my heart for your diligence). Aenor's eyes lit up and he nodded in acceptance.
Evunial took his hands off Aenor. "Peditham hi sui vellyn In i lamb -o adan plural edain." (Now, let us speak as friends in the common tounge). The High commander stated. "Of course." Aenor said with a smile. "Excellent." Evunial said as he walked past Aenor and looked in the direction the archer had come from. "What did you find out while you were out there? Evunial asked. "Well as far as I can tell we are no longer in Elfhiem or any of the nine realms for that matter. it is some other world." Hmm given recent developments that does not surprise me." Evunial said while rubbing his chin and looked at something in his other hand. Calagon then walked up to the duo. "No longer in Elfhiem? How is that possible?" The dragon asked. "I am not sure." Aenor answered before Evunial spoke up. "It does not matter, what does matters is finding Azanar... and Lokelonde." Evunial said matter o factly. "But my Lord how can we be sure that Lokelonde came to this world with us?" Aenor questioned. Evunial turned to face his companions. "Because of this." Evunial held out a stone gleaming with light.
"The great Jewels of Lokelonde were designed by Azanar to only glow this bright when in the realm of the white city. Before that meant only in Elfhiem but now that means... Evunial stoped and Calagon continued. "Our home is here...Some where." "Exactly right, but before we go looking for it we should get out of this blizzard." Evunial said as he turned to Aenor. "Calagon told me you went to find a suitable location for my sleeping chamber. Did you find one?" Evunial asked. "I found an old castle to the north built into the mountain though who ever it belonged to must be long dead for it has been over run by trolls. They even seem to have some form of a monarchy. I saw some elves and humans being kept prisoner aswell I was heading back to confer with Calagon on weather or not we should just free the prisoners or take the fortress ." Evunial crossed his arms in thought. "(Wow that's a lot of info at once! So there are both elves and humans here, and monsters too! Hmmm we should try testing are strength against the trolls and see what information we can get from the prisoners.)" "Well since we won't be needing a sleep chamber we might as well free those prisoners." Evunial said as he threw his fur cloak into his inventory and pulled a hooded heavy white fur cloak and threw it on and put up the hood. his clothes glowed and changed aswell he now had a shimmering white and gold chest piece over his royal attiar along with white gauntlets and grieves with gold accents. "You lead the way Aenor, Calagon and I will follow." Evunial said prompting Aenor to take point. "Alright let's go." Aenor said as he walked toward the barrier's edge. Calagon then dropped the barrier and the blizzard rushed full force into the trio.
NEAR THE TROLL CASTLE
The snow storm swirled around Evunial and the others, howling and rageing as they moved through it with surprising ease. "(This storm feels like a gentle breeze against my skin.") Evunial Thought as he walked through the storm. "(So this is what my Cloak of the last Frost's resistance to cold feels like..)" Evunial looked forward and noticed Aenor had stopped and knelt just before a cliff over looking a canyon as the blizzard began to die down, Calagon and Evunial joined Aenor at the edge of the cliff. "There it is." Aenor said as he pointed at the fortress. The castle was built in to the mountain on the other side of the canyon and looked like it could have at one point been impressive but due to the trolls who now claimed it, it had fallen into disrepair. sections of the inner halls laid bare with other being covered by fallen debris and rudimentary means. Rubble littered the outer walls which had breaches in the walls and along the walkways. Trolls patrolled the walkways and stood watch on the towers.
"What do you think Commander?" Aenor asked not takeing his eyes off the structure. Evunial still crouched down moved closer to the edge and surveyed the area. "(Wow I can see so clear even the cracks in the walls look so close I could touch them.) Evunial thought as he looked at the castle. "(Hmm looks like a good place to set up a base while we learn more about this world, just have to get rid of the trolls. Hmm what would be the best move in this situation? Since it's still night me and Aenor would get a bonus to stealth, But Calagon is not built for stealth so maybe a direct assault would be better but that's assuming no one in there is at our level so...)" Evunial thoughts were cut short as movement in the court yard cought his attention. His eyes sharpened as he stood up and reached into his inventory and pulled out a sheathed Elven Katana, The curved hilt and sheath were a brilliant Emerald and were covered in intricate designs inlaid with gold and mythril. He attached the blade to his hip and then looked at Aenor and Calagon. "Calagon, we are going. Aenor cover us." He said before crouching again. "I hope this works."He said before the ground shattered under his feet as he leaped far into the air in the direction of the castle at incredible speed. Aenor readied his bow and aimed at the castle. Calagon nodded to Aenor before he spoke "FLY."
ON THE CASTLE GROUNDS
Two big trolls in patch work leather armor were arguing while they lead a caged cart with humans and elves tied up to the courtyard one yellow the other green. " No they better to eat raw, me like the crunch!" The green one bellowed as he shook his head. "No no no!! Better to roast and make soup! You dumb, you don't know." The yellow one mocked while shrugging. "Me not dumb! You dumb!" "No!" "Yes!" "No!" "Ye.." The two were interrupted by a bigger blue troll in patch work metal armor standing in front of the gate to the courtyard. "Grrr What is all that racket!?" The armored Troll yelled. "Nothing just Glur being a dumb dumb." The yellow one stated. "No Glub is dumb dumb not me!" "No!" "Yes!" The armored troll grinded his teeth and balled his fists as they argued. "Shut Up!!" He roared as he hit both trolls on the head. "This the new shipment?" The big blue troll asked as he looked at the terrified passengers threw the bars. "That right." Glub said as he and Glur rubbed their heads. "They look tasty." The armored troll said as he licked his lips. Glub then spoke."Oh they tasty, even caught a Dark elf." He said puffing his chest. "Ehh!! dark elf?" The blue troll Exclaimed as looked at the other trolls before quickly looking back in the cage. His eyes skimmed the cage till they met the only gaze within not filled with fear but defiance and rage, her short dark gray hair was dirty her face was bruised her red eyes tired from crying and her clothes were little more the rags and yet her eyes held no fear.
"Dark Elves are his favorite." The Blue troll said with a grotesque smile. Glub then spoke up. "Oh yes, meat really tender even without cooking." Then Glur chimed in. but me thinks the ones we ate would have been better roasted." The Dark Elf then glared at the yellow troll as she fought with her bindings before yelling. "You will pay for what you did to my friends!! I will kill you!!! She roared barely holding back tears of rage and loss. The two smaller trolls looked at each other and then started laughing as they spoke. "Hahaha, What you do?" Glur said. Then Glub added. "You food too." The two trolls continued to laugh until the The blue one walked up and hit them both on their heads again. "Shut Up dumb dumbs!! We unload now." He said before he pointed at the ring of keys on Glur's belt and then to the cart. Glur then went to the cart and opened the cage door. He reached in to grab a prisoner but was caught off guard by the dark elf girl who had freed her self and attacked the yellow monster with vicious ferocity, stabing him in the throat over and over before yelling at the other prisoners. "RUNN!!!" The prisoners jumped out of the cart and ran but were cut off by other trolls that had heard the camotion. When the girl who now had blood all over her brought the beast to the ground she turned to see the prisoners being grabbed by the other trolls she stopped stabing Glur and let her gaurd down.
Then Glub smacked her off of Glur and into a stone wall with great force causing her to fight to stay conscious. Now dazed she watched helplessly as the trolls rounded up the runaways. Glub then picked her up with one hand and snarled at her angrily. "How you You kill Glur!? you weak elf!" The Elf gave a weak smile as she saw the yellow corpse. "I told him I'd kill him, your fast healing doesn't work against a cursed poison dagger." she said while griting her teeth in pain. The dagger was black with green markings eched into it and glowed a dark green. Glub's face contorted as his body shook with rage but then he calmed and a grotesque smile spread across his face before he spoke. "And I say you food." The girl's smile disappeared and she began weakly stabing the monster's arm as he rose her over his gapeing maw. As she continued her pointless assault she spoke weakly. "(No I used to much of its power I was careless.)" "Damn it, No!! I won't die like this , not before..." Just then the ground shattered as something crashed in from the sky a few meters away. She was amazed at what she saw next. An elf like none she had seen before standing in the middle of the crater. His silver and blue hair rivaled the glow of the moon, his armor simmered like star light but what caught her attention most was his eyes the eyes of royalty.
A small crater had formed around Evunial. He dusted off his pants as he stood up from a crouched position. "(That was amazing! And I didn't even feel the impact.)" He thought as Calagon landed gently behind. "(Oh..right...flight magic...forgot about that.)" Evunial Thought as he noticed Calagon's landing.
His attention then fell apon the trolls and elf girl being held up in front of him who looked Absolutely shocked by his entrance. "Hmm first things first" The swordsman said as he lowered his stance and griped his sword. "Calagon, do not take action til I say so." Evunial said as he dug his feet into the ground. "As you command" The dragon replied. Evunial then moved as if taking a step forward and vanished in a blur of incredible speed. The next momment he was standing behind Glub with his blade unsheathed. The blade was a sapphire blue with etchings representing various enchantments inlaid with gold covering its length. He then turned around reached out and caught The dark elf girl as the monster's right arm fell to the ground. The monster looked down at its arm and then the stump it was attached to in shock and disbelief but before the pain could register a blue flame erupted from the wound. The beast flailed and screamed in horror and pain as it tried to put out the flame out but was engulfed and turned to ash. Then the armored troll swung his blade (which looked like a giant meat clever) down on Evunial with every ounce of strength it had. Evunial still holding the girl in one arm simply raised his blade cutting both the cleaver and the troll in half. Evunial then placed the girl down on the ground next to him as the corpse was engulfed in blue flame and examined his blade.
"(The Lhun Elena One of my brother and our forge master, Ninja's greatest blades. enchanted with the Blue Flame of Purgatory and Reality Slash among other spells. It does so much damage over time it kills anything level 50 and below almost instantly ...so these guys must be around level 30 which means they don't stand a chance.)" He then sheathed his blade and looked at the rest of the trolls and spoke. "I am gonna say this only once. This is now an outpost of the The Great City of Lokelonde. Lay down your arms and I will let you serve. If you wish to leave then you may. But chose to fight and you will die." The Trolls recoiled from his threat and then talked amongst them selves untill a big green armored troll stepped forward and spoke. "This is home we not want to leave Troll Castle." Evunial then responded. "Then you do not have to. I only ask that you swear to serve me and The king of Lokelonde.. and to never again hunt elves or humans for food." The troll looked at each other and then back to Evunial before bowing and giving there answer. "We swear!" they said together. Evunial smiled. "Good, now I am your commander and my first order is for you to take these humans and elves to nearest human village and see that no harm comes to them I will deal with your former leader." The trolls looked at Evunial and saluted by slamming their fists into there chests before they headed out of the castle gates.
"Well that was easy." Evunial said while scratching his head before the girl spoke.
"They are not the smartest creatures but they know strength when they see it." She said as she stepped in front of Evunial with her hand out in geeting as she introduced herself. "My name's Izunia thanks for that." Evunial smiled and took her hand. "(Wow for a girl covered in troll blood she is really pretty)" He thought before replying. "Nice to meet you Izunia I'm Evunial and this is Calagon he's a dragon." Calagon just nodded before Evunial continued. "We are gonna take this castle." Izunia was takenaback by his announcement but could not help but believe it." Wow I heard elves of the old blood were strong but I had no idea." She said impressed. "Old blood?" Evunial asked. Izunia then pointed at Evunial's eyes and answered. " My clan teaches that when elves have two different colored eyes and great power it's because they have blood of the ancient elven royal family we are supposed to stay away but you don't seem that bad." She answered. Evunial thought for a moment. "( So eyes like mine are a symbol of power and royalty but also cause to be werry hmmm interesting. Then Izunia spoke up breaking his train of thought. "Then I will help you." she stated. Evunial looked her up and down before replying. "I appreciate the offer but you should head back with the others." He said as he turned to head into the castle, he could hear the monsters preparing inside. "But you have too." She said. "You are in no condition to..." Evunial started. "PLEASE!!" She yelled interrupting Evunial and causing him to face her and see tears now in her determined eyes as she continued. "These monsters and their leader have hunted my clan since we came to these damned mountains from the west. I convinced my friends to set out and ask the Adventurers Guild for help but..." Izunia then stumbled and fell, as the damage of being hit into that wall took affect. Evunial caught her and gently laid her on the floor as she whispered in pain. "Its my fault they died. I have to make it right." Calagon then walked over and knelt beside her and placed his hand on her head and spoke. "(SHOW STATUS)... Hmm...Three broken ribs a punctured lung and a ruptured spleen." He then looked at Evunial and finished. "She is fading." Evunial started sweating. "(Crap!!! I left all my health potions in Lokelonde and I don't have a healing spell...wait.)" Evunial then looked at the band on his right ring finger and smiled. "How could I forget." As Evunial put his hand over Izunia the clanging of metal and iron he had ignored had became thunderous.
Just then armored trolls began flooding the courtyard. Evunial then raised his hand and spoke. "Aenor Cil cín peng gwil!" (Aenor let your arrows fly.) A light shined from Aenor's position. And then black arrows came raining down upon the trolls each shot expertly placed. Evunial then spoke to Calagon. "Help Aenor with these trolls...But No magic, I want this place intact." "Yes Commander." The Dragon said before walking through the carnage and into battle by tearing a troll in half . Izunia then spat up blood as she tried to talk. "Leave me" "Shh you will be good as new in a moment." He said as he raised his hand over her again and his ring began to glow bright as he activated it's power. "(RESTORE!)" The ring was a band of intricately interwoven mythril and gold with an inscription in Quenya one of the oldest Elven languages in the Lord of the Rings series, delicately carved into it and adorned with three radiant gems. A diamond, sapphire, and ruby in a triskelion formation. The wounds and bruises on Izunia disappeared as she was healed completely. Izunia sat up and examined her self shocked. "H..how is this posible? I have heard about strong healing magic but I feel even better then before." Evunial smiled and pointed at his ring before answering her. "This ring is called Valainya or the ring of liberation. It is one of the treasures of my home." The dark elf looked at the ring in awe. "It's beautiful, I have never seen anything like it." She said unable to take her eyes of the ring. Evunial smiled brighter from hearing his brother's work praised. "Thank you. My brother and close friend put a lot of work into this ring and it's Twin." She then looked at Evunial with intense curiosity. "It has a twin?" She asked. "Yes well..." He stopped mid sentence as he heard the crashing foot steps of Something approaching something big. "Calagon to me!" "Yes my Lord." Calagon said before jumping to Evunial's side. The beast had to duck its head to get through the massive door way into the castle.
It was three times the size of any troll and was extremely muscled had black and yellow eyes, dark red skin which had spikes all over and was wearing old and tattered royal garments from the kings it had eaten and had a magnificently crafted massive crimson battle axe on its back. Evunial looked the giant over. "( Damn this guy is huge never seen an Ogre like this, and the way it's skin is covered in spikes...badass!(" He then regained his composer and spoke. "That is no Troll." As the beast began its approach Izunia felt like she should be uneasy in front of the monster responsible for so much of her people's pain but she felt no fear and when the beast stood towering over her she was not intimidated. The beast's voice was deep and menacing. "WHO DARES ATTACK MY HOME." The Ogre bellowed as he looked around at all the dead trolls and then down at the Elves in front of him. "WHAT IS THIS?! ELVES?! AND DARK ELVES NO LESS, HAVE YOU GREW TIRED OF YOUR LONG LIVES AND WISH TO SUSTAIN MINE?" The giant asked as it knelt down for a better look. "Actually I am here to claim this castle as an outpost for The Great City of Lokelonde." Evunial said plainly. The mountain shook with the Ogre's laughter.
"HA HA HA HA!! YOU WISH TO TAKE MY CASTLE FROM ME BOY? YOU ARE A BRAZEN LITTLE ELF. NOW TELL ME LITTLE ELF, WHY SHOULDN'T I EAT YOU AND RETURN TO MY BED CHAMBER." Evunial Thought for a moment. "(Hmm what should I do? I feel like I should be cautious but I have this feeling of overwhelming confidence. Maybe I should use him to test what I can really do? but first some info. )" Evunial then looked the Ogre in the eyes and spoke." May I ask you a question?" "HMMM A LAST REQUEST? ...WHY NOT." The Ogre said amused. "To rule over mountain and cave trolls you must be strong. Are you the strongest in these lands? Is there none who can best you?" Evunial asked. " HA HA FLATTERY? WELL I AM NOT FROM THESE LAND I CAME FROM THE FAR EAST OF THE BEASTMEN KINGDOMS BEFORE I CONQUERED THESE TROLLS AND HAVE NOT COME ACROSS A WORTHY FOE." "(Well that does not help.)" Evunial Thought before looking at Izunia. "Izunia you were going to ask the Adventurers Guild for help. Would they have been able to take this guy?" Evunial asked. "No one we could have afforded.I have never even heard of a blood red Ogre like this before. It might be one of a kind, and with the aura of death this monster possesses it would take a squad of Adamantite level Adventurers to bring it down." Izunia answered. Evunial then looked back at the monster before he spoke. "Adamantite level? Are they Strong?" "The strongest in the world." she said plainly. "HAHAHA IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW MANY YOU SEND. NONE CAN STAND AGAINST ME AND MY MARTIAL ART." The Ogre said proudly. Evunial blinked a few times before speaking. "Uh Martial art?" Izunia looked at the Warrior Elf confused. "It's a special technique developed and crafted by warriors which are unique to the individual...surely you know this, you used a martial art to set those two trolls ablaze." "(What!? That was just me doing a two hit combo!)" Evunial Thought to him self. "HMMM SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE AN INTERESTING MARTIAL ART... BOY." The Ogre said as he stood up before continuing. "HOW ABOUT A WAGER. WE TEST THE MIGHT OF YOUR ART AGAINST MINE IF I WIN I EAT YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS AND IF YOU WIN..." "I get this castle." Evunial interjected. "HMM...DEAL." The giant agreed.
The two warriors readied their weapons Evunial gripped his sheathed blade and lowered into a samurai like stance while the ogre took his axe and raised it over his head and it began to glow a sickly dark red illuminating the night. Evunial noticed the glow. "(Huh kinda looks like a charge attack.)" The swordsman thought as he dug his feet further into the ground and his blade and sheath began to glow as well. "(This feels different..I can feel my power pouring into my blade is this martial arts.)" Evunial then spoke to Calagon without taking his eyes off the Ogre. " Get Izunia out of range." He ordered. Without hesitation Calagon grabbed the dark elf girl and flew up toward Aenor's position. "REALISING HOW FOOLISH IT WAS TO CHALLENGE ME...BOY." The Ogre said with a smile. "No just realized that Its a good thing your back is to the mountains. I won't have to put the castle back together when your gone." "YOU INSOLENT WHELP!!! The Ogre roared as the axe's glow reached its brightest. "THERE WILL BE NOTHING LEFT OF YOU!!" "Funny I was gonna say the same thing." Evunial quipped. "RWARR DIE!!! (MOUNTAIN CLEAVER)!!!" The axe ripped through the air in a downward arc with incredible speed and force promising to cut Evunial clean in half but inches before reaching Evunial's head time seemed to stop and the ogre saw Evunial's smile. The next momment Evunial's muscles in his arms and legs bulged showing his definition and then in a show of incomprehensible speed Evunial unsheathed his blade as he stepped forward. The sheer air pressure created from unsheathing stoped the axe's descent and blew it back. The ground gave and broke away under foot as Evunial's blade tore through the Ogre's body.
Evunial now stood behind the Ogre as the mountains in the distance crumbled. He spined his blade in a flurry of tricks before beginning to sheath the blade but stopped just short. The Ogre then turned to face the Elf. "WH..WHO ARE YOU?" "I am Evunial High Commander of the Lost City Lokelonde. And you never gave me your name." "I WAS OLROG THE OGRE OF THE BLOOD MOUNTAINS." "I will remember it." Evunial said before fully sheathing his katana. Olrog then looked out to the crumbling mountains. "TO THINK I WOULD LIVE TO SEE THE DAY THE MOUNTAINS BOW DOWN TO AN ELF." Just then he coughed up blood and a cut from the Ogre's right shoulder to the left side of his hips became visible and then blue flame burst from it consuming him and leaving only ash. A few moment's later Aenor, Calagon and Izunia joined Evunial in front of the Castle entrance where the surviving trolls had lined up in front of the Elven Commander.
"We swear!" The trolls yelled banging their chests in salute. Evunial then responded. "Good! Now first I want you to free every prisoner and then get to cleaning this place up." Yes Sir!" The Trolls said in unison before leaving. Aenor was the first to address Evunial. "Flawless victory Commander there was never any doubt." Evunial turned to Aenor and smiled. "Yes well now that we have it we need to make worthy of representing Lokelonde. Then we need to get a lay of the land." Then Calagon chimed in. "Would you like me to scan the surrounding area from the air?" Evunial looked at Calalgon for a moment before talking. "That's a great Idea Calagon. but don't make contact, simply observe." "Yes Commander." Calagon said before jumping into the air and yelling. "(RELEASE FORM)" He then took his true form in all its glory and soared into the sky as the sun started to rise. Izunia watched in disbelief as Calagon flew away before whispering. "He really is a dragon." She then addressed Evunial. "
You aren't serious about trying to hold this place are you?" "Huh Of course I am." Evunial said as he began to walk the grounds, Izunia and Aenor following closely as she questioned. "But there is no way we can hold this place! "Why not? Olrog did." Aenor stated as they walked by some trolls fixing a wall. Izunia then looked at Aenor as they walked "Olrog commanded leagions of trolls in these mountains a fraction of which pleged to Your comander here and he had the respect and fear of all the nation's nearby. Evunial walked to a table where trolls had been putting scrolls and tomes and stared to look them over before speaking. "It will be fine." Izunia then closed the tome Evunial was reading and looked at him seriously as she spoke. "Evunial!" The Commander looked at her and sighed resigned to listen as she continued. This castle is on the border to the Troll Kingdom and is surrounded on all sides. The Baharuth Empire to the west, the Karnassus City-State to the north, The Draconic Kingdom to the south. and The Minotaur Nation and the Beastman Kingdoms to to the east. And all of them will be vieing for control of this mountain fortress."
Evunial smiled kindly at Izunia placing a hand on her shoulder he replied. "I appreciate your concern Izunia but I assure you I will be fine. Now you should head back to your clan I am sure they are worried. Aenor will escort you there safely." Izunia shook her head before she responded. "I can't. By clan law a life saved is a life pledged. I am yours to do with as you see fit." "(They have laws like that!)" Evunial thought. He then examined the tattered rags that made up her attiar then spoke. "Well I cant have someone pledged to my service dressed like that (Solder equip)." A light shined around Izuina and then her rags were replaced with a form fitting hooded black and white rogue armor set with gold accents complete with gauntlets, grieves and a gold embroidered white cape with black fur on its collar. A pair of matching adamantite daggers were sheathed on her hip."(Cool my Commander of Lokelonde job class abilities still work.)" He thought as Izunia spined around admiring her new clothes. Evunial noticed Aenor admiring her too. Izunia then looked up to thank Evunial, and Aenor quickly looked away.
"Thank you Commander I really appreciate all the kindness you have showed me." She said with a soft smile. Evunial smiled back and was gonna reply but then Izunia cut him off. "But this does not change the fact that staying here is a bad plan. We simply do not have the numbers to to hold this place." The Dark Elf refused to give up. "(Man, she just won't quit. Hmmm but maybe she is right if we get attacked by all sides we might not be able to hold this place... wait numbers.)" Evunial then looked at Izunia. "You are right." Izunia and Aenor looked surprised but quickly recovered and Izunia replied. "I know I am right." she said. Evunial then continued "We need reinforcements." He said as he reached in to his pocket dimension inventory and pulled out a beautiful white horn adorned with gold and silver. He then took a deep breath and blew the horn. The powerful sound echoed throughout the the mountains and then fell silent. Izunia was really confused as she inquired. "Reinforcements? From where?" Just then the sound of another horn echoed through the mountains in reply. Evunial then walked up the stairs to the battlements on the wall and gestured to Izunia and Aenor to follow. As the trio looked out to the valley bellow Izunia gasped at the site before her. A small army of level 55 dark and high elves stood in formation clade in shining hooded gold and green armor based on the hooded armor of the thrid age Elves in the Lord of the rings series. 60 archers, 40 mages wearing armor of Abelas from the dragon age series,100 warriors and 50 Riders who's mounts were huge magnificent white stags with majestic curved antlers. These Halla were clad in gold and green armor of their own.
Evunial saluted by placing his right hand over his chest and then all the elves below saluted in turn and began their ascent to the fortress. Aenor noticed Izunia was speechless and spoke. "It's like the Commander said. Everything is gonna be fine." Izunia sighed in defeat. "I am sorry I ever doubted you." Evunial laughed a little bit. "Ha It's alright. For now we should concentrate on making this place a bright beacon for Lokelonde and then we will worry about our neighbors.(And finding my brother) Are you still worried about them taking this castle?" Evunial asked. Izunia looked at Evunial and then down at the armored elves entering the Fortress gates and smiled. "I would like to see them try."
