Chapter Twenty-One

Day 135 – Isle of Quel'Danas. Report by Commander Vereesa Windrunner

They are back. After a pause of a month they are back and keep attacking the front defence line around the Sunwell Plateau since a week. They came with more soldiers and this time nobody will help us because Stormwind, Orgrimmar, Undercity, Demacia and the other important cities are getting attacked as well. My sister Warchief Sylvanas has written to me that the enemy forces which are attacking Undercity are smaller than the forces from the first wave but they are enough to keep her and her troops busy. We have a lot more trouble to repulse the soldiers of the second wave but at least we manage to not let our enemies through our defence line.

We had to give up our first fort and withdraw to the second fort, a few hundred meters behind our first fort at the west side of the Sunwell Plateau. The first fort was almost completely destroyed by their war machines during the siege which lasted for a week. Most of the reinforcement troops on Azeroth are supporting us and the other wells but this time we won't be able to repulse them without losing fewer soldiers then them.

Day 142 – Undercity. Report by Warchief Sylvanas Windrunner

Undercity is getting attacked by the Burning Legion. Two weeks ago they had send their demons like felguards, wrath guards and fel beasts as cannon fodder together with their siege machines to test your defence. Thanks to the through magic empowered walls of Undercity we managed to kill thousands of them without losing a lot of troops. We also managed to destroy their siege machines before they could fire at us, thanks to the troops which were hidden beneath the ground. They came out and destroyed the siege machines when most of the demons were trying to climb on the Undercity's walls.

Five days later dozens of fel reavers and gigantic machines, which were empowered by the deadly fel magi, appeared out of nowhere. It was impossible to get close to them because they were constantly emitting green fel smoke which would kill any living or undead creature which would be exposed to it for too long. We managed to destroy them with our canons but one of them came close to the east side of Undercity and damaged the outermost wall.

We had also spotted a few necromancers from the Scourge. Fortunately we had been able to take them out before they had raised our fallen troops. They had even tried to raise theri fallen demons. I didn't know that demons can be raised in undead but their necromancers and val'kries seemed to be special. They could also just have tried to revive them with fel magic. I'm not pretty sure if they really are able to do that but what I know was that we should prevent them from that.

A few of our warlocks were able to burn the bodies of the demons with fel magic to make sure that no one can bring them back. As far as I know the fallen demons return to the twisting nether and will regenerate over years but these demons are different. They are stronger and their bodies weren't dissolved when they die. That means they don't return to the twisting nether and won't regenerate. That's why their necromancers and warlocks have been trying to revive them.

We will keep defending Undercity, as long as we destroy their siege machines it won't be a problem but the demons are keeping us busy so that we can't send troops to the wells.

Day 145 – Stormwind. Report by King Anduin Wrynn

The Scourge had arrived a few weeks ago and kept attacking Stormwind city since then. They are attacking through the see, through the air and through the land but they aren't getting much. We lost a few dozen soldiers in the past weeks and killed tens of thousands undead Scourge soldiers. They send everything they got at us. War machines, nerubians, gargoyles, wraiths, banshees and even flesh titans were attacking us. The siege is far from over because their necromancers are raising groups of their fallen soldiers. They are well guarded and protected by magical barriers and spells so that even our best assassins aren't able to get close to them without getting killed.

We are doing pretty well with defending Stormwind, we didn't not allow that their siege and war machines damages the defence walls of Stormwind city. Scouts also spotted the commanders of this siege. Blood Queen Lana'thel, Vladimir and Anub'arak are staying like cowards behind their troops and do nothing except observing the siege. Real commanders fight with their soldiers, maybe not on the front line but at least they fight with them. The training with Leona is paying out. I can now use the light as a deadly weapon against these undead creatures. I can take out fifty skeletons with one single spell and it don't even drain a lot of my power anymore. We will defend Stormwind but we also have to be prepared for everything and we shouldn't underestimate our enemies. I can't say how many undead creatures are attacking us because with each creature we kill, two more appears and take its place but as long as they don't get inside Stormwind city all should be fine.

Day 151 – Shurima. Report by Emperor Azir

To summarize our situation I want to tell that we are fine. My once friend and now arch rival Xerath is attacking us with Nasus's brother Renekton and a gigantic army of soldiers. Their forces are strong but with my sand soldiers and the power from the Sun Disc of Ascensions we can defend Shurima without any problems. Nasus had fought alone with our mercenary army for the first few days until my summoning spell was completed. I had summoned four hundred thousand sand soldiers and twenty thousand elite sand soldiers after a summoning process of three days. These sand soldiers will last until their bodies are getting destroyed by our enemy". These soldiers don't have a time limit like the soldiers I summon with a quick hand gesture without the power of the Sun Disc.

We decimated their forces without losing many of these mercenaries or my soldiers but more and more enemy soldiers are coming. They even came with siege machines which fired at the walls of the Shuriman capital city. They damaged the wall in the north a bit but we managed to destroy the siege machines and the best builders in Shurima managed to repair the damaged wall in the last week. The only problem is Xerath. I thought he wouldn't be a threat for us but his powerful lightning bolts keep decimating my sand soldiers. I can re-summon them but that mean I can't fight because I'm busy with summoning. We have to take him out as soon as possible. I will captivate him and then he will get a just punishment for betraying me more than one time.

Day 150 – Undercity

"Keep firing" Sylvanas shouted as she ran past the archers and mages which hide behind the battlements of the Undercity's walls in the south and waited for the right moment to shot their arrows or fireballs at a bunch of enemies. Sylvanas fired an arrow without clearly aiming while she was running and hit a large demon in the head. The arrow killed him and the demon fell onto a smaller demon, squashing him with his weight. She pulled another arrow out of her quiver and shot it at a three headed core hound which was about to bite of the head of a Forsaken warrior. Fortunately for the warrior, Sylvanas killed the core hound first before it was able to harm the Forsaken. Lucky for her, her bow reproduces arrows out of the souls of its victims, so she would never get out of arrows if she keeps killing enemies. She would have definitely got out of arrows if she would have used her old bow.

She didn't count how many demons she had killed in the past month but she was sure that she had killed at least a few thousands. She had started a contest with Elise, the winner who will kill the most enemies until end of the war had to do one entire week what the other one was telling her. Sylvanas didn't know how many enemies Elise had taken down but she was pretty sure that she won't lose against Elise. The activities she can do to with Elise and the things she can do to her always drew a smile to Sylvanas face when she was thinking about it. Of course it will be naughty things and activities, Sylvanas couldn't wait to see Elise wearing attractive and erotic outfits. But now was not the time to think about that. Sylvanas had to stay focused because this battle was not as easy as it seemed.

They may defend Undercity without letting it getting damaged but that doesn't mean that the victory was near. More and more demon's step out of portals or appear out of nowhere. These demons keep attacking the forces of Undercity in front of the main gate. The portals were well guarded so it was impossible for mages to get closer and try to close them. At least Sylvanas val'kyries and necromancer kept raising the fallen soldiers so that Sylvanas didn't lost too many of her forces. Unfortunately she had not enough warlock's to revive the fallen demons but these warlocks made at least sure that most of the demons were burned by fell fire so that they couldn't be revived by the enemy warlocks.

Sylvanas ran to the tower on the left front corner of the outmost walls, firing arrows and killing dozens of demons with her splitting arrows. She created a sphere out of dark magic and let it explode in a mass of demons. It killed hundreds of them and burned their corpses through fel magic. She arrived at the tower and checked if it was still manned with Elise and her spell casting spiders. Sylvanas was glad that it was. Elise was firing dark spheres and fel fireballs at these demons, killing half a dozen with each spell.

Elise smiled as she spotted Sylvanas and nodded her head quickly, which told Sylvanas that she should come over to her. Sylvanas rushed to Elise and gave her a quick kiss. Elise pointed at a spot in the mass of enemies, a few hundred meters away from the main gate of Undercity. Sylvanas looked in the direction Elise was pointing and spotted Darius with a thing which looked more like a monster than a man. Its muscles were of enormous size and were looking unnatural, probably caused by steroids or an untested substance. The creature's neon blue tongue was hanging out of its jaw and it only had a couple of teeth left. The creature, in Piltover and Zaun known as Dr. Mundo was fighting with a huge cleaver which was almost as large as his upper body. Dr. Mundo was hacking through the undead and living soldiers like they were butter, killing half a dozen with one quick blow.

Darius was killing his enemies by beheaded them with his axe or vertically splitting them in two halves. A dozens of alliance soldiers, mostly humans, charged at him but they were slaughtered by the Noxian general with a quick blow. These two warriors were too far away from Sylvanas, so that she couldn't hit them. The last time she had fought against Darius he had used his own soldiers as a shield against her arrow and even as an arrow hit him it didn't hurt him a lot. This time her bow was a lot stronger and she was pretty sure that she could hurt him badly if she hits a well-aimed shot. Darius seemed to know that, that's why he stayed behind and just killed the ones who were either brave or dumb enough to attack him.

"Sylvanas look" Elise hissed. Sylvanas looked at Elise who was pointing at something in the north-west direction of Undercity. Sylvanas turned her head and saw at what Elise was pointing. It was a gigantic fel reaver which was double as large as the walls of Undercity and its armor seemed to be a lot firmer than the normal fel reavers because it was taking hits from the Undercity cannons without getting really damaged. "FOCUS ON THE GIGANTIC FEL REAVER" Sylvanas shouted and fired explosive arrows at the fel reaver as it came closer. She noticed soon enough that her arrows didn't seem to bother or damage the fel reaver. It came closer, accidently squashing a few demon and defenders on its way. It take a direct cannon hit in its head but it kept walking like nothing happened although the cannon hit had left a small hole in its head.

The fel reaver arrived at the west wall and destroyed one of the wall's turrets with its foot, killing two dozen archers and a few mages with it. Sylvanas had studied the reaver while she was firing arrows at a few demons, killing them with ease. She had noticed that this reaver seemed to be manned and the only way to take it down would be to kill its crew. She had also noticed that it didn't emitted fel smoke around its head, it only emitted fel smoke around its legs. Sylvanas transformed to a banshee and flew with an incredible speed to the fel reaver and landed on top of its head.

She transformed back and jumped through the hole, which was large enough for her, and landed in the cockpit. She spotted a few servants of the Burning Legion, which looked like mutated goblins, which stood in front of a large control instrument. She killed all servants and rushed to the control instrument. She didn't know how to stop it because they were so many buttons and levers that it was impossible for Sylvanas to find the right button or level in short time. She looked at the piece of glass above the control instrument and noticed that the fel reaver walked toward the next turret.

"Fuck" Sylvanas hissed, observing the buttons and looking for the right one but it was still unclear for her which button would do what. She pressed a random button and noticed that the reaver's moving speed was increased. "Damn it" she hissed and pressed another button. The fel reaver stopped and lifted his right leg then it stamped on the ground and killed a bunch of demons. Sylvanas pressed another button, hoping that it's not the self-destruction button, as badly as she wanted to destroy it, an explosion so nearly to the walls of Undercity would not only heavily damage them, it would also kill a large amount of defenders. Sylvanas pressed another button and noticed through the vision glass that the fel reaver turned around and started to run towards the enemy backline. She noticed that a few demons and the mutated goblin-like servants were about to reach the fel reaver's cockpit. Sylvanas panicked at first but then calmed down as she spotted the button which would blow up the fel reaver in thirty seconds.

She pressed the button and ran to the hole in the cockpit. She transformed to a banshee and flew as fast as it was possible back to the main gate of the Undercity outermost walls. She killed the demons which were getting close to the cockpit while she was flying. She arrived at the main gate and heard the expected loud explosion. She looked around and noticed the fel reaver's remains which fell to the ground. She spotted that the explosion had left a crater with a radius a few hundred meters and the ground, were the fel reaver had been standing, was burned. Sylvanas suggested that thousands of demons were killed by this explosion. She noticed a few much smaller fel reaver which sprinted towards the main gate. All of these fel reavers were taken down by the Undercity cannons except one purple fel reaver which came dangerously close to the main gate. It hadn't the chance to extend its big claws to the gate's door because Sylvanas flew to the cockpit, blasted a hole in it and threw a bomb in the cockpit. She covered a physical barrier on the hole, which made sure that the passengers wouldn't be able to throw the bomb out. Sylvanas teleport on top of the main gate, in the last moment before the bomb exploded and blew the fel reaver's upper body up. The reaver fell backwards and landed on top of a few demons, squashing them with its heavy weight.

"That was awesome sweetheart. This looked so badass and awesome" Elise said, patting Sylvanas left shoulder.

"Thank you. I have a bad feeling that more of those will come sooner or later" Sylvanas said and looked at a female rogue which appeared next to her.

"Warchief, we spotted three gigantic portals in the middle of Brill. They have the city under their control and they are using it as base for their troops"

"So their base is only a few thousand meters away from us… We have to drive them back and retake Brill sooner or later or they will summon more forces. Collect the best rogues and mages we have and try to close these portals" Sylvanas ordered.

"As you wish Warchief" the woman said and vanished in the shadows.

Day 153 – Suramar. Report by Alleria Windrunner.

Our enemies are tired of sending their troops to the Nighthold. They tried as hard as they could to get even close to the Nightwell during the past month but we managed to smash every of their attacking forces. I have expected that the average Noxian soldier would be stronger but we dealt with them very well without losing too many soldiers.

Today the Monarchs had sent their elite warriors. They were stronger by a lot than their average soldiers and they were stronger than our average soldiers. It had been only a few thousands but had they managed to get in the Nighthold. We had managed to kill most of them before they got close to the Nightwell. A few hundreds of them survived and retreated. We lost five hundred soldiers today , most of them were nightbornes but we managed to kill four thousand elite warriors and two thousand normal warriors with the help of our traps. We had been in the majority, plus our enemy didn't know the areas in which we fought them. Their leader was a green slimy creature which was only a bit larger than an average elf. It wore a wooden mask which looked like a face, the eyes of the face glowed red. The creature was throwing slimy balls at our solders, which dissolved their armor and hurt them badly. I don't know out of which kind of slime the creature consisted but it seems that the slime had a corrosive effect.

Turalyon managed to cut his sword through its chest but it didn't seem to have bothered the creature. It remained unharmed after Turalyon had pulled it out, even fire magic was useless against it and he protected itself with a barrier every time a mage tried to attack it with an ice spell. I assume that it is weak against ice techniques, that's why it is forming barriers around it whenever an ice technique was flying towards it. The creature had disappeared after it had noticed that all of its warriors were gone. I'm pretty sure that it isn't gone. It will come back and this time it will come back with more soldiers.

Day 179 – Suramar - Nighthold

Alleria stood with an army of five thousand archers at the end of the main corridor on a higher platform. The corridor was very wide and would lead to the Nighthold's entrance hall. Turalyon and Arator stood in front of the platform with an army of twenty thousand melee combat fighters. They waited patiently for the approaching enemies who will soon open the main gate and will be surprised by a gigantic volley of arrows. The mass of enemies had been drastically increased from thirty thousand soldiers to almost sixty thousand soldiers in the past few days. The mass of enemies had forced Alleria and the other defenders to give up the defend points outside the Nighthold and turn inside. The fight in the building's walls would be a huge advantage for the defenders because the superior number of the attackers wouldn't matter at first because the entire enemy army couldn't fit in the main corridor.

Alleria heard a loud cracking sound and knew that the enemy forces were using a battering ram to break through the massive main door. Alleria turned her head a bit and noticed that some of their archers were a bit nervous, the hands of a few of them were shaking a bit.

"Do not fear our enemies, the may be more but their entire army wouldn't fit in here. If we keep fighting in this corridor we have a chance. Don't be afraid, do not fear our enemy. Just stay calm and fight for our homes, for our families and our loved ones. Fight for Azeroth, for Runeterra and for the entire universe. Together we will win and defend the Nightwell at any cost. FOR AZEROTH" Alleria shouted and drew her bow.

The archers mimicked her actions and aimed at the main door. The loud bumping of the battering ram went louder and more frequently but Alleria didn't lose her mind and stayed calm. She knew as she heard a much louder crack that the ram had broken through the main door and loud shouts were hearable as a group of a few thousand normal Noxian soldiers and soldiers of the Monarchs. The attackers were greeted by a volley of arrows which decimated over a half of the first group within the first few seconds. The next group came through the main gate and charged with the first group at the defenders which blocked their way through the staircase to the top of the platform.

The fight between the melee attackers and melee defenders was a bloody massacre. Within a few hours the defending forces in front of the platform were annihilated until less than half of their original forces were still alive. The defending melees and the archers managed to decimate the attacking forces until only a third was left but they were still more attackers then defenders left in the corridor. A few dozen attackers had managed to break through the defending lines, fortunately for the archers they were taken down by their arrows before they could reach the platform.

The slimy creature appeared out of nowhere and fired a ray of disgusting green slime at Turalyon and his fighters. The ray hit half of remaining forces but missed Turalyon only by a hair's breadth. The soldiers which had been hit by the ray of slime were found a few seconds later on the floor, winding and crying out in pain. Their skin, flesh and bones were slowly dissolved which caused that dozens of the other defenders at to vomit at the disgusting and horrible looking remains of these soldiers. Alleria noticed that this creature wore a different face this time. The wooden face looked like the face of an elf, a familiar elf. Alleria's breath stopped as she recognized the face's owner. It was just an image of the real face but it still shocked to see the wooden version of Sylvanas' face worn by this disgusting creature.

"Why are you wearing a wooden mask which looked like my sister's face?" Alleria asked aroused by anger and worry for her little sister.

"Because I want to have her face. It is a nice face. I want to have it so badly and I will take it after I have taken yours" the slimy creature said with a husky voice.

"I won't allow that. You won't either take my face or hers"

The creature started to laugh. Its laughing was so shrill that most of the elves had to put her hands on her ears to bear this terrible sound. "I am known as the Face collector and your faces will soon belong to my collection" the slimy creature said and stroke its mask carefully. The mask started to glow and the creature continued laughing but this time with a much deeper voice. Its entire body glowed and changed its form and size. Alleria couldn't believe that the Face collector had chosen to take appearance of her sister Sylvanas in the approaching fight against her. "I am no one and at the same time I am everyone" the Face Collector said with Sylvanas' deep voice.

"Let's see who is the better archer of us sister" the Face Collector said and drew Sylvanas old bow.

"You are not my sister" Alleria shouted out enraged.

"But soon I will be" the Sylvanas copy said and shot an arrow at Alleria.
