"Keep your coin, I meant if we meet again." Xavic toss the extra coins back.
Xavic follows the soldier.
"Very well. Perhaps we will one day."
Outside is a group of other soldiers, bringing the total number of his escorts to twenty. Among them is the soldier who brought him to Echain. They begin to lead him toward the shore.
Xavic follows them, taking in the layout of the camp.
Lacking any information on the sorcerer other than a name, Darthraxx is unable to bring him there. Perhaps some sort of divination spell will be required.
OOC: Does that mean I can still use magic? What are the rules here? IC: *When able, Darthraxx does the bare minimum divination spell required.* (What tier?)
While Darthraxx is working on the spell, Logaire returns. "He says his name is Kennedy Jones and he is a sorcerer-assassin who wishes to help us fight the Xains. I believe his words. What do you suggest?"
"The feeling is mutual. Aye." Demiu appears ever so slightly ruffled by Aaron being referred to as from "his people", but he hides it quickly. "Your help is sorely needed. The Xain number many times our full force, and if the rumours are true, they have also attacked the North, meaning this is not their full force. Thank you."
"I will not lie to you, Demiu of the Lions. I, like Sairse, and Damhan, and most of our fellow Chiefs, opposed the motion to march to war. Logaire's decision to ignore the initial vote and settle the issue by trial-by-combat was not a popular one. We will honor our commitment, and our people will follow us, but if Logaire is replaced, the new Great Chief may choose to abandon this battle."

He is brought to the ocean, where he finds Gor'El still trapped in the water. The dragon is released.

While Darthraxx is working on the spell, Logaire returns. "He says his name is Kennedy Jones and he is a sorcerer-assassin who wishes to help us fight the Xains. I believe his words. What do you suggest?"
"Let him out. Ask him what he knows, then have him ready against the tide. I fear the tides shall strike hard and fast. We must be ready to face them." *Darthraxx rallies the men on the walls.*
Tul Generas of the Orcs, Darthraxx of the dragon Knights. I RP, and have lots of fun.
While out of earshot of the prisoner they talk: "I am well, but tired from my long journey. I fear this war is far from over but reinforcements have arrived. He motions to the minatoars. How are you?
"Minotoars? I thought they were extinct. But it's good we have them here on our side." Lexos paused, staring at Corellus, then said "I'm fine. I haven't fought in any battle yet, but when the next battle comes I will be ready to join our men on the battlefield."
OOC: I'll just assume this conversation is at a close.

"Let him out. Ask him what he knows, then have him ready against the tide. I fear the tides shall strike hard and fast. We must be ready to face them." *Darthraxx rallies the men on the walls.*
Around 2000 Xains, including the cavalry, arrive at the castle wall.
*Archers Fire, Spears are thrown, and battle commences. The gates are locked shut, and the walls are strong.*
Some of the Xains duck behind shields to protect themselves from the projectiles. Some of the attacks are deflected by what seems to be the wind- Xain magic. Many of the Xain are struck and fall nonetheless. A ramp of earth begins to rise in front of the castle wall, similar to the one that was made earlier, but larger and taking much longer to form.
"I will not lie to you, Demiu of the Lions. I, like Sairse, and Damhan, and most of our fellow Chiefs, opposed the motion to march to war. Logaire's decision to ignore the initial vote and settle the issue by trial-by-combat was not a popular one. We will honor our commitment, and our people will follow us, but if Logaire is replaced, the new Great Chief may choose to abandon this battle."
"I doubt you will have the opportunity to abandon it now. The Xain are already at the gates; it will not be long before all of Kahltrain is let loose upon us. This is the end, I fear."
