Lazarus Grimm wrote: Has-Many-Teeth just laughed nervously. "Ehrm... that remains to be seen, doesn't it? This is the first time Fort Slayer has been under an immediate threat after all."

"A wise choice of words", sighed Trymir. "I hope someone will be left alive to quote them."

"Commander!" a voice shouted from one of the towers. "Beasts in sight at the foot of the mountain!"

Another tremor caused the entire fortress to shake. Most likely the incoming horde had managed to find their way to the ruins of Ivarstead.

"Man your posts!" instructed Trymir. "And Nyx, won't you try and find Ran'Jinro for me? I want him to assemble a small group and hold the Beasts off halfway on the spiraling ramp whilst we rain fire on them from above."

Evelyne had just been about to say anything as she felt the tremors and heard Trymir's commanding voice boom from the outside. It would appear as if Fort Slayer's battle had just begun.

"Best of luck to the both of us?" she said and then kissed Ja'Keil. "I love you, Jak. No matter how this ends I want you to know that."

A small tremor shook Saarthal, causing people to give out sudden shouts and screams in fear as they began to remove themselves from the plazas and the town squares, finding sanctuary within their homes instead.

The leader of the reinforcements motioned for his followers to continue unloading the carts. "I... think this should be private enough", he shrugged, watching the masses scatter.

"Bless you for coming!" sobbed Myrdana, still bawling like a desperate child.

The leader looked down upon her with pity and brought her up on her feet, giving her a steady shake. "Don't you lose hope now, you hear?! We need every man and woman our order can muster."

He then turned to Mongo. "What's the status of the city's defenses?" "This One loves you too," Ja'Keil said. "And he wants you to know he will fight until the heart stops beating..."

It was then that he realized he could see her. It was only out of one eye, however. Evelyn could see it too, one eye had returned to it's golden color. The other was still grey....

"As bare-bones as it can be. Lightly manned, defensive equipment is in bad shape. We've been working to get it in running order since last night but we're no miracle workers," Mongo said, glancing over at Myrdana. "And... a few of us are concerned."

"Okay," Athorian said, giving her a goodbye kiss. "Stay safe, love, I'll be back for dinner,"

With that grin that had become almost his trademark, he was out the door with his sword and off to the front.
