“Go to the city and turn it to ash, take as many slaves as possible and bring them back here.”
[A Quote From Elohim, The Self Proclaimed God King Of Pandemon]
Enoch upon hearing this looked at one of the guards and speaks.
“Gib these peopwe some nummies an’ a pwace to west, Enoch wan’‘s to know what’s goin’ on.”
The guards begin escorting the bat ponies, with the same bat pony who spoke just moments earlier speaking again.
“We nee’ hewp wite nao, dah city am goin’ to faww any moment!”
Tethius chimes in, trying his best to calm the situation.
“'Ou wiww speak as we go dewe! Ugh… Teww me, what exactwy happened?”
The bat pony speaks as we begin walking.
“We am undah attack, ouw bowdah fowtifications hab awweady fawwen. Nao Nickew City itsewf am undah heaby siege.”
Tethius speaks, with him sounding both skeptical and confused.
“How am that eben possibwe! Those wiwd twibaw’s to dah east can bawewy eben owganize themsewbes, how dah heww can dey puww somethin’ wike this-”
Tethius is interrupted by the bat pony.
“These… Things, wewen’t twibaw’s.”
Enoch speaks, with me seeing his facial expression turn to one of morbid curiosity.
“What am ‘ou tawkin’ about…”
The Bat Pony speaks, it’s obvious the thoughts of this are causing him great fear.
“I nebah seen dah beasts buh fwom what I’be heawd dey am as dawk as night time, haiwwess an’… Wait I think Stephan maybeh hab saw one of them when gate was at dah gate, Stephan!”
The bat pony Stephan (who was in the back of the crowd) speaks as he cleans his glasses.
“Yeah fwuffy am cowwect by dah dawk skin an’ haiwwessness, buh dey wewe awso weawwy ugwy an’ wooked nothin’ wike anythin’ stephan ebah seen befowe!”
Than as he finishes Dar speaks, with him looking like he was having a realization.
“Did any of them hab wingies that made them fwy? An awso descwibe dewe teeff…”
Stephan thinks for a second as we arrive at our destination and finally speaks.
“Fwuffy think Stephan saw one wawge one fwy wite obah fwuffy! an’ dewe teeth, dey nu did wook natuwaw.”
We all start to realize what Dar meant by that comment, the “monster” at Green Roof. And as the guards help settle in the bat ponies my unit and Enoch and Tethius all head to a different room, as Tethius speaks.
“Dis munsta has wetuwned wiff an awmy… Dammit! we nee’ to do somethin’ fast, we nu can keep them hewe.”
Enoch speaks.
“We nee’ to send suppowt to Nickew City, if dey faww, dey may not stahp…”
Tethius (And us to an extent) are a built shocked by Enoch’s willingness to help, and Tethius speaks in a bit of protest.
“Am majesty we just aboided a cibiw waw, an’ we hab nu standin’ awmy to speak of. Who knows how wawge dis fowce am! think about dis.”
Enoch speaks, taking a deep breath.
“Enoch undewstands whewe ‘ou am comin’ fwom Tethius, buh ‘ou nu undewstand that my wife an’ I gwew up in Nickew City an’ that if Enoch was to wet it faww… She wouwd nebah fowgibe me, neithah couwd I mysewf. Owdah an emewgency mobiwization of dah guawds in Doe-StwongWing’ tewwitowy, an’ pwepawe twanspowts an’ suppwies at once.”
After that Tethius nodded without saying anything, with him sending out riders to go tell the territories. and while that happened, we were ordered to stay here for the remainder of the day until the situation updated. In the morning several Raccoon riders returned with messages, with most of the settlements agreeing to send out a large portion of there guard, and also the fighters guild agreeing to join in (Of course all of this paid for by the Doe-StrongWing treasury) In the end we had a force of around 9’000 willing to fight and as the logistics of this operation were still being figure out, someone finally decided to show up. We looked on as the wagon came to a stop and Charles exited with him having a large smile and looking as jolly as ever.
“It’s su gud to finawwy su 'ou again!”
I and everyone else give him a light but worried smile and Cahrles speaks again.
“Did Chawwes miss something?”
After getting Charles geared up and catching him up to speed he is obviously worried and speaks as he looks out.
“su what am sayin’ am dis munsta has wetuwned, an’ nao has an awmy that wooks just wike him.”
Ix speaks.
“Basically.”
Charles looks at us and speaks again.
“Do 'ou wondah whewe these things eben came fwom?”
I shrug as Charles breaths deeply and we await what is about to happen.
It took us at least another day until we started leaving for Seaside, with now most of the armies getting there. Once we entered the city I could see the concern on the faces of many there, as most didn’t know what was going on. Getting closer and closer to the docks I was trying to calm myself before the battle, that was until I heard… Her voice.
“Emiwy am that 'ou!”
I look to see Aubrey and not even a second after I see her Aubrey speaks again.
“Am su sowwy! Aubwey shouwd hab nebah said those things.”
Audbrey continues to follow the wagon as I think of what to say. The pain she caused me was still very present and that with this I didnt know what to think, so I just think of something and speak.
“We’ww tawk about dis when Emiwy get’s back, dewe am somethin’ howwibwe goin’ on at Nickew City.”
And with that Aubrey leaves in silence as we arrive at the docks. Once there me and my unit get off the wagon and we are lead to one of the transport ships. Once there it wasn’t long until we were off, heading into darkness. Fin
