Fortuantly neither Nevla or Ulvaar actually need to win these fights they are buying time for the ritual team.Kasavarina and Grumblejack continue their dance, while fighting rages around the field, the defenders are being forced back towards the ritual site and have taken considerable casualties.As the Water plane pillar is set in place more reinforcements arrive a regiment of Vampiric knights from Bathory supported by several vampiric nuns they stop a break through from the Legions forces.Round 5William takes the lead on connecting to the planes of life  calling on the Kings of Risur to role him a 20Ulvaar gets hit hard by Marcus and goes down hard, Nevla rushes over to heal him as she does so she takes a savage hit from Ozy's spells (I believe another Destruction spell) and would have taken a Polar Ray and a Death clitch from the Wizard but Cula who has been fighting nearby takes the hit for her and goes down hard, her loyalty to Kasavarina lasting unto death.The connections to the plane of Life form and portals open King Thasraldion rides  onto the battlefield accompanied by a force of Treants and Anthropormorthic badgers riding War Hedgehogs, while a Mariarchi band accompanied by Skeletal cheerleaders and the King and Queen of Iretha Ket arrive providing bardic support to all of the none devil forces.Round 6 Nevla casts a spell of healing flames which helps bring Ulvaar back merely to the edge of death , it also causes Marcus to withdraw to Oswyn for healing , Kasavarina moves to protect Nevla . In the mean time William with the help of the others forces a 20 and connects to the chosen planes of time a very hard task . The last of the reinforcements they are expecting arrives as they connect to Evermeet and Ascetia. Galadrial the guardian from Evermeet arrives and kills a pair of Pit Fiends.Round 7A pair of Pit fiends charge into the ritual site and are engaged by William and Padme while Manuel handles the Space column, Ulvaar is still dead, Nevla is trying to avoid joining him while the battle rages around themRound 8 Manuel finishes the plane of Death Amrou and they hope that it's protective effects will start to discourage the Shining legionFinally Bourne flips over the Seal , finishing the Ritual however the odds still look bad with freindly forces having sufferred heavy losses and Legion reinforcements continuing to arrive.As the Sun rises there is the sound of heavenly trumpets and in the sky overhead a host of angels arrives, lead by two figures one of which is quicky recognised as Ashima-Shimtu the second appears to be one of the Heavenly Gods of War Iomedea a god often honoured in name at least by the clergy.Oswyn see's the new arrivals and orders an immediate retreat with the cry "God on the field " , as the legion Plane shift out so does the heavenly host leaving just Ashima-Shimtu who flies down to land besides the batterred Nevla.And a new age of the world dawns.We will be doing a wrap up next week, but after 32 months (less a six month excursion into Star Wars) the campaign is over. A pair of pitfiends charge into the ritual area and are intercepted by William and Padme , Manuel is easily able to finish the last</blockquote>
