~-~-~-The Trade Route Raid-~-~-~

"Heehee, fun time!" Skye said gleefully, thinking about how long it had been since she last fought. Firing arrows down on the enemy ("Yeah, got one!"), Lyulfe helped with protection, by singing. (hey, he's a song dragon, remember?) His song seemed to solidify around the group, and all physical assaults were returned to the assaulter. "Next time, I get to play my harp, and YOU fight, ok?" Skye asked, as she shot down another creature.

OOC> LOL
IC> Stepping over the body of her last foe, Galadria meets the wizard with the withered arm. He tries to toch her with it, but, in a thunderous strike, she hits the arm so hard that it flies from his body. The cadaverous arm flies across the field, striking another necromantic soldier, who immediately dies. Galadria aims a backhand at the Pale Master's face.

As the undead horde marches foward, you look astonished that they have stopped, and now seem to be attacking each other.
"What the hell is that!" someone yells.
YOu catch a glimspe of some humans fighting, and next thing, they run down the hill running as fast as they can. Its SecretMaster!!! They run down, huffing and puffing,"thought we'd make a sneak attack. Thirty, uhhhh, men, pant pant, left. Nother army, pant pant, comingg. neeeed, waterrrr." He takes out a water bottle and drinks it all without stopping for breath.

"Another army? Friend or foe?" He shouted while his sword rang upon a the skull of a vampire, then driving it into his gut, "Breathe friend!" He said as he struck down another necromancer... "If it's another enemy army than this is only the tip of the Iceberg!"...

OOC>>> What is a bladesinger???

[Skydracgrrl]

OOC- a bladesinger is someone who sings protective (or is it offensive?) magical songs, while fighting. er, i think... ^_^:; ask LS, he's the one who explained it to me, hehe. ^_^

[Galadria]

(smashes in skull of the Pale Master, he falls)"What say you, Secretmaster? Is it an ambush. What ails those fools over there, that they fight each other?" (engages a skeleton that is trying to mar her helmet with a rusty mace.)

[Skydracgrrl]

*bump*

Yes, another army, and foe. (Gasping for breath) We have two days before they arrive, so we must rest and train hard. (Talking normally) I do believe that this army is a lot more powerful then we expect. They have sophisticated battle tequniques, so we must plan it out. I scouted that they have undead lancers guarded by pikes. Undead horse swordsmen guarded by more pike. Those men are guarded by heavy infrantry, fully armed swordsmen. Long bows after that, guarded by knights and pikemen. Siege weapons, particulary rams, catapults, and mortars guarded by archers and infrantry. THats all we could see before we were caught and the denizens of archers bombarded us. I'm afraid that we are doomed.

GALADRIA
To SecretMaster "I have not run yet, and will not start here. Let us await them in some more defensible place, however." (She leaves on a scouting expedition, returns) To all: "There is a place, not a mile from here, where a narrow canyon walls in a steep trail. Let us position ourselves there, so that they may not surround us, and sell our lives dearly at the worst, or, mayhap, emerge the victors by our skill at arms."

[Skydracgrrl]

OOC- doomed? i doubt it. ^_^ if that were the case, this rp wouldnt have been started at all, cuz we wouldnt have made it even halfway... -_-

IC- Skye, smirked, and helfed(sp?) up her weapon. "I'm ready for them," she said confidently. "But what we really need is a plan, an advantage of some sort... Any ideas?"
