[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 4811723, member: 7006"] The large bell within Caer Overlook begins its toll, and High Priest Forgeheart immediately closes his eyes to give a silent prayer. The bell quickly stops after one ring. It is one hour past high noon. The priest then opens his eyes and addresses Dorn Tirae. [COLOR="palegreen"]"What you are doing, Mister Tirae... is easily explained, although difficult to accomplish. While the main thrust of the orc army will follow the Dwarfroad from the west and try and go through Bordrin's Watch... we have received word that several wings of the force have or are trying to find ways through the Stonehome Mountains itself... through the miles of tunnels dug over the centuries by dwarves or other races. That way they can circle around us all and set up multi-pronged assault."[/COLOR] He glances down at the maps on the table and points with his finger.
