OOC: The Xain commander. The minotaur is helping fight the Xains.
OOC: OK, thanks.
IC: With a mighty roar Casúr slams his hammer down onto the helm of one of the few Xain remaining between him and the commander. Although he is tiring, his thirst for revenge and battle drive him forward towards his objective.
OOC: You're welcome.
IC: At last, Casúr breaks through the Xain and faces the commander. The Kriatoma woman keeps the rest of the soldiers at bay, allowing them to confront one another without interference. The commander is short, and even through her armor it is clear she is quite muscular. A small lock of black hair has evidently fallen loose and hangs over one of her brown eyes. "You do not scare me, horned beast. Nor you, woman of stone. Tell me, what are your terms?"
OOC: Yes. Here, I'll give you something to go off of.
IC: As he fights the Xain, Karthon sees some members of the crew from Ferran's ship desperately trying to hold their own.
OOC: Thanks, just didn't know the procedure for re-entering a role play.
IC: Karthon sees the familiar faces and in an instant rushed over to where they were, catching Xain and foe with his blade as he went and launched sword first into the group of enemies around his former crew mates.

OOC: No problem.
IC: He and Dubhan manage to push back the Xain enough to give them some breathing room. Now that they are closer, Karthon can see that there are three of them- Aleix, Eloi, and Beatriu.
Eloi smiles at them. "You showed up just in time."
Beatriu scowls. "Sooner would have been better. "
Aleix separates the two. "What's happened's happened. We can't change it now." Sadly, he turns to Karthon. "Where's Alpida?"

IC: "We came as soon as we could. The Xain foe is now sore in their coastal forces." He said breathlessly. "Alpida... fell, in our struggle. We would not have won without her."
Regaining consciousness of the battle, Karthon drew defence. "How fares you here?"

Aleix sighs. "I'm sorry to hear that." He takes down a Xain soldier as he attacks. "We lost Stijn, Sevan, and Pere. I just want this battle to be over."

"Then our want is same." Karthon replies breathlessly. He presently sheathed his sword and drew his bow to launch three arrows, all which found their mark in Xain chests.

The others continue to keep the Xains at bay. Another attack by Natasa scatters the enemy, giving them a few seconds of rest.
OOC: I need to wait for LegoBuilder again. I don't want the two parts of the battle to be totally out of sync.

LegoBuilder: Since you haven't replied, I am going to move on without you.
After a short conversation, Casúr and the woman, whose name is General Adryn, begin to fight. The minotaur tells Charis to stay of it, and she obliges, keeping the rest of the Xains at bay. Eventually, Adryn is defeated, and Casúr smashes her. The Xains fly into a panic, allowing Natasa to dispatch those who choose not to surrender.
On another part of the battlefield, Karthon, Dubhan, Aleix, Beatriu, and Eloi are fighting a losing battle. Just as Karthon is about to be smashed, Aleix gets in the way, and is smashed in the process, though Karthon is unharmed. The loss of the General finally allows the remaining four of them to push back and free themselves from the battle.
As the battle wraps up and the Xain are sent to be imprisoned, a dark figure begins making her way up the beach. Slowly, she becomes clear as Alpida. "What? I grew up on an island, sailing ships. Of course I am able to swim. I just wish I hadn't had to lose my morning star. I will have to replace it from the Kriatoma's stores."
Alpida, Karthon, Casúr, Dubhan, and Natasa go to the command tents to report their success to General Iraklis. Beatriu and Eloi make their way back to Ferran's ship with the promise from Alpida of a group of Kriatoma to replace the crew members they lost so they can get back to the mainland, and payment as soon as the war is over.
In the tents, General Iraklis congratulates them. They leave, Natasa staying behind, and fetch Valithor from the medical tent on their way to the ships. Alpida explains that they are going to take a number of Xain ships and sail them, with the Kriatoma army, to the South to help the others. They begin to sail.
RomeNZ: Sorry I had to skip over so much. LegoBuilder was needed to finish the battle properly.

OOC: That's alright.
IC: After the most intense battle Karthon had endured for some years, he smiled at his fortune of survival and slowly came up to the familiar face he was glad to see now, stretching his sore form as he went.
"Good to see you again Alpida," he began with a smile, "where are we bound..?"
