Series 3: Evacuation, Search, and Sorrow

2 weeks later

"QUICK!!! TO THE BOATS!!! TO THE BOATS!!!" commanded by the dwarf.

"You heard him men!! Leave the front lines!! Back off! Back off!!" shouted by the Knight as he cleave the head off from a ghoul.

"Quick!!! they are starting to get through the gates!! Our men can't hold it much longer!!" shouted by the wounded footman.

  Lordaeron after the aftermath of the Frozen throne.

The foul stench of the Plague lands spreads throughout the area. The burning trees, crumbled houses and the loud clashings of swords and magics are enough evidence that a war against the Scourge is going on. The small force composed of new and war hardended human, dwarves and highelves fought bravely as they hold the weakening line against the countless undead and entities that rushes in to defeat them. Right behind the line several groups are inspecting the last rugged Galleons and ships that they will use to escape the undead infested land.

"Quick Aggronor back off!! The boats are ready!!" said the weakened footman Regalas.

The dwarf leader Aggronor looks back "No you first Regalas!!! Morlune!!! Quick!
Back off!! The boats are ready!!! Hey you quit using those cannons and get to the ships quick!! We are leaving this Plagued war forsaken lands once and for all!!! Come!!

The Highelves sorcerers finally starts to weaken the magical barrier as the other Alliance members hurriedly pack their belongings. The knights starts to retreat as the 4th wave of undead units starts to destroy the rugged barricades. The sun is already rising from the east and the morning cold is disturbed by the burning structures and the foul smelling wind. The sounds of gunfire begins to cease as the few handfull of Dwarven riflemen begins to pack up their things and starts to retreat to the ships. The Highelves sorcerers and human soldiers also begins to retreat to the safety of the boats.

By the time the Undead has broken down the crude gates, all the ships has already set sail. As the Crypt fiends and gargolye's begins to approach, riflemens begin to shoot the barrels of gunpowder that they intentionaly leave in the docks. The results is a very large explosion, killing almost all the crypt fiends, innahilating all the gargoyle's and immediately turning the docks to a burning ruins.

At last, the failed alliance has left Lordaeron

As the galleons set sail, the failed alliance looks back at the land they once called home. The decayed place only leaves hate, anger and sorrow for the 3 races, as they travel due north all they hope now is to find the remaining alliance forces that had left earlier.

(At the same time, in the outskirt of Geffen)

"Hey Miyuki wait for me!! Give me back my wand you goat!!"

"Come chase me you red headed witch!! Faster!! faster!!!"

"I told you im not a witch!!" Hitomi replied angrily

Then suddenly..

"Hey you 2 girls!!" a hoarse voice called out.

Both girls looks up and search for the source of the manly voice. The voice comes somewhere in the woods, the winds in the grasslands suddenly blew heavily. There they notice a group composed of 4 young men and 1 woman. All of them are heavily armored and 2 of the men are riding heavily built peco peco's with shiny coats of feather.

Miyuki whispers to Hitomi:"wow!! They are riding peco-peco's"

"Shut up you are embarrasing!"Hitomi replied.

The group then approach hurriedly the 2 girls and introduce themselves to them.
The sun is now slowly setting yet the wind is still strong.

"Hello!! Im Miyuki and this is my friend witch named Hitomi!!

"Im not a witch stupid!! Excuse her for her behavior, im a wizard."

"The heavily armored midgard knight replied:"Well good afternoon miladies, my name is Shinji and these are my freinds."

The cute black haired woman introduces herself:"Hi im Souryu!! This is Shinji,
this is Yusuke, and this is Mico, im a priest while my freinds here are Midgardian Knights,
by the way what are you 2 girls doing here? Its already dark, do you both have your passes? By your looks, I guess both of you come from Prontrera am I right?"

Both Miyuki and Hitomi looks at each other in an unhappy way, both of them dont have any passes. It is strict that any unauthorised travelling alone are punishable, the sun has already past beyond the horizon and the place is starting to get dark. Th wind has also halted the crows of the owls can now be heard and fireflies can be seen deep in the woods.

"Uuuuuuhhhhh....... Yeah.. we came from Prontrera... but.. uhh.."

"We dont have any passes."Hitomi immediately blurted out annoyingly.

"Hey!! Hitomi!!" Miyuki immediately reacted.

Then Yusuke jumps immediately jumps from his peco peco, points steadily at the girls and immedietely laughs and loudly replies.

"AAHA!!! So you think you 2 youngster can roam around freely while our group goes arounds and do our job... Getting KIDS like you!!! But now we have caught you 2 and we shall me you suffer!! hehehe... hahahaha... Mwhahahahaha!!!

Souryu approach them and whispered: " Dont mind him... he's obsessed at capturing kids roaming around, because he can't take someone his own size."

Both girls ask Shinji if his patrol group can accompany them to Geffen, but Shinji told them that they are searching for 2 lost knight students. Shinji gave them the details that both the young girl knights are adventurous and roams northeast. Since then, both of the 2 are not seen and that is the reason why they are roaming. Another reason that they are going northeast is all about a rumor that an unknown sickness starts to spread from the villages and they are send to investigate it. The other knight, Mico asks both Hitomi and Miyuki if they could come and help them in their mission.

Hitomi whispered to Miyuki.

"Do you think that we should help them?? I think that you are in a hurry to go to Glas-helm am I right?"

"Well I dont know Hitomi but I think we should help out, then after that, we can ask them for help on how to get to Glas-helm faster."

Both girls stare immediately to Mico.

"Uhhh..." Mico said worriedly "Why are you 2 staring at me like that?"

Both bestfreind replied "We are ready."
