"Well, if we intend to take on an army of such might, I advise upon making a plan to defeat them, first," Vaida stated. "Although, we from Bern have never tackled such an immense army, so I would not know where to begin. We normally just ambush invaders, from the mountains and they go down fairly easily."

"Well, we are in luck," announced Jaffar who hadn't been listening, trapped in his thoughts. "We need to rebuild the walls that were destroyed, and then we will need to have the walls guarded from above at all times, with the warriors ALWAYS ready for any time an attack in initiated upon us. But most importantly, we will need weapons. Yes, LOTS of weapons. They will need to be made from the finest materials at our disposal. And some horses and pegasi might help."

"We strongmen will get to work on the wall right away," Hawkeye said. "Lady Lyndis, where might we find the supplies we will need?"

"In the hidden warehouse," she replied. "Harken, would you please show them away and report back here immediately when you are done?"

"Yes, milady, as you wish"

They were soon off to the warehouse.

"Lady Lyndis, I have brought some Wyverns along, would you like us to search the surroundings for any villains in the area," Vaida questioned.

"That would be nice," Lyndis replied. "Kent, tell all the soldiers to prepare for an intense battle to begin at any given time."

"Yes, my lord," Kent said.

And so the preparations for battle began....
