umm. . . He said to evacuate the area AROUND the castle, not the castle itself. I mean, if that's what you meant to happen, then I guess go ahead, but I don't think that will help a lot. I mean, I don't think all the Xain could fit in the castle.
OOC: It will help a lot. There are 2000 Xains inside right now. No one on the walls knows that though, so I'll hold off for now.
OOC: Oh wow, that is a lot more than I thought. I thought the castle could only take a couple thousand soldiers max. Nevermind then, carry on what you were doing.
Tul Generas of the Orcs, Darthraxx of the dragon Knights. I RP, and have lots of fun.

OOC: Yeah. You're right, though. Gidie doesn't know that there are any. But, I have a way to fix that.
IC: As Gidie begins scanning the outskirts of the castle for civilians, he and Darthraxx hear a familiar voice. "Um, excuse me, when am I?"
"That's why Sairse has to win." They watch on as she does so (see my other post) and Logaire sighs in relief.
Albeis, finishing his treatment of Logaire, rushes over to Sairse's side to examine her leg and other wounds.
"Logaire, I'm afraid that, even with your help, we may not be able to win. But I'll just have to pray to the good Lord that we do."
"Perhaps not. The forces arrayed against us are immense. But there is hope still. I have lived on this earth for nigh a thousand years, and far too much of that time was spent hiding, waiting, watching the world change around me and doing nothing. It is far past time I acted. I shall sit idly no longer, whatever the odds. Even were I utterly alone in this fight, I would stand my ground. I hope you would stand with me, all of you, if it came to that." He speaks with almost shocking conviction, and the glint in his eyes speaks of a man with nothing to lose. Sairse gives him a worried look but says nothing. Damhan, dragging himself upright, only glowers.

"I will fight beside you, but..." Lexos shakes his head. "I can't make any promises. But please, don't mistrust just because of that."
"Demiu." Lexos approached Demiu. "The Xains have become entrenched in the castle, and we may or may not lose the Minotaurs' help. What shall our next move be?"
Demiu sighs. "I had hoped that my magic and the sacrifice of my men would have held them in the lower corridors longer, but it appears not. I see two options; destroy the bridge they have raised to teh walls and ensure the gate is barred, then move our full force against the Xains within the walls. If the numbers within the castle are too great, we need to open the gate, leave the bridge, and draw as many of them as possible within the walls, then destroy the castle and everyone in it."

Logaire only nods. Albeis continues working on Sairse's injuries.

"I don't know which will be better. Do you know where King Darthraxx is? I believe we need to gather the leaders together for an urgent meeting."
