The Four Lands - Southern Operatives

[Rhun]

Roak shakes his head. "Aidan is correct. Leaving the fortifications is not a tactically wise suggestion. With as many orcs as there are out there, you would be overwhelmed and dragged to the ground. Your skill with the axe would be of little use then."

 

[Leif]

Nijel Bladesong

"Like I said, crazy..... Well, very well, then, my axe and I will take up station on the wall facing the direction from whence the foe comes. May the Light allow my axe and I to be at least a small help to the cause."

 

[Rhun]

Roak smiles at the Bulldog. "I believe they will be coming from ALL directions," he says to his companion.

 

[Leif]

Nijel Bladesong

"For the Light's Sake, man, flip a copper piece or something, just tell me where I should go!"

 

[Rhun]

Cairnwalker slaps Nijel on the shoulder. "Just follow my lead, my friend. Look for the biggest, ugliest enemy and cut them down." Drawing Widow's Lament from its sheath upon his back, the knight seems utterly calm and collected as he waits for the enemy to make their appearance.

Nijel takes a long, slow, deep breath as he tests the edge of his axe, and a smile of contentment spreads across his face. "Now that's a command that I will obey with great relish!"

Defense of the Manor

The old baronet is silent while the party debates then in a no nonsense manner that reminds even his subjects that he once was a formidable general says "NO You will wait here with me. They will rush the gates in an attempt to catch us by suprise and overrun us before we can properly prepare. I expect them to do this in about an hour.......so you gentlment will from our own suprise...we will let them breach the outer area thus holding our main defenses in reserve and unknown while you stop their advance and we counterattack from the flanks..any questions.


OCC:Map coming later tonight.

As the Baron finishes speaking and moves away to tend to other business, Nijel says to Roak, "I guess he told us, didn't he? Looks like what will happen will be a bit like my original plan, except that we will be inside the walls and will have nowhere to retreat, so we'd better take the fight to them, and defeat them quickly!"

 

[Rhun]

Cairnwalker nods at the Baronet's orders. "Yes sir, general. We will not fail you. The orcs shall be stopped."

Roak turns his attention back to Nijel. "Show no mercy, Nijel. Cut them down as quickly as you can, for there seems to be an endless supply of the enemy."

 

[Leif]

Nijel Bladesong

"Yes....my thougths exactly. No mercy whatsoever. No quarter asked, and none given. I wish you good hunting and much success, may the Light smile upon us today."
