Omake - Corin's Crossing

Random Scarlet Defender #652

The job was to hold the line. It would be done.
The monstrosities were determined though, and kept sending their hordes at us.
Again and again and again. Cut left, Cut right, block repeat.

*Crash*

Looking up you spot an abomination breaking into your fellows, cutting several down within seconds. You charge the monstrosity. You must do your job. For whats left of your country, For whats left of your family, and for REVENGE.

You stab at the abomination keeping your shield up but it doesn't help. The shield cracks and you go flying. But you refuse to give up. Your only duty left is to hold the line and it shall be done. Standing up, your shield arm mangled you prepare to charge the mindless beast again.

You charge at the abomination again only to be knocked down along the way by a wayward spell.

Lying on the ground battered and bloody, the spell was a near miss but still had enough force to knock you down and sap your remaing strength. You couldn't charge again, hell you couldn't even get up. The only left to do was wait, until you are rescued, until a healer can see to you, or until you die. You shudder, to die here would mean you might be forced to rise again and fight your fellows but you have no options you can't even stand.

Then you hear it the stomping of feet, the clatter of armor, reinforcements. But for who?

Looking up just in time to spot the princess cutting down the abomination that slaughtered your fellows and almost killed you. Your lord, your leader, your Princess! Her sword glowing silver cleaving effortlessly through the undead hordes where you had struggled to simply hold the line.

You cry out, "It´s the Princess, the Princess saved us!"

For this is the truth again that beautiful lass has saved us. She built this kingdom while the old fell around us and now she saves us again in battle against the unholy creatures that wrought that destruction.

And for her, you will stand again. For her it is your duty. For her you will hold the line!

Entering your office after a long day of parades, speeches and noble balls, you will be glad when you can slip into more comfortable wear and shoes, but you can´t help but be happy, it seems that taking Corin´s Crossing has proven to the people that the Scourge can be beaten, you can still hear some celebration in the street.

"I have the reports from Invar and Isillien, Princess." Brigitte says as you give permission for her to enter. You motion for her to continue. "The assassin sent after you was found carrying an emblem, Invar has sketched it for you."

Brigitte gives you a roll of paper, opening it you can see a emblem that is unknown to you.

Spoiler: Emblem

"Invar believes that this is the emblem of Scholomance, the necromancer school in the Western Plaguelands, but he doesn´t know why they would send an assassin so far east from their position, of course it could be a misleading piece of evidence, to divert our attention from the real culprit, Invar will look into it when he has the men and resources to spare."

"Isillien on the other hand has finished with his plans for the funerals, this will take up almost all of his free time and he will be unable to continue his lessons with you for this month."

"Good, thank you for informing me, now get us something to eat and drink, I want to hear what you have been up to." You say as you rise from your desk and move over to the small dining table. Morale increases for all factions, Faction opinion increased for Scarlet Crusade and Refugees.

You look over the beautiful sword, forged form an unknown metal, the blade looks as though it is made from silver, starting from the hilt where the silver mixes with a red metal to create a beautiful combination, going up a third of the blade before the silver takes over and continues to the point of the sword, red symbols adorn the blade, starting from the hilt where the red metal ends and stops at the point, unfortunately it seems that time has worn on the sword, not all symbols are filled with red and are just empty engravings.

Running your finger over the sharp edge, which hasn´t dulled no matter what you have done to it, you don´t even feel the wound that appears and starts bleeding, removing your finger you look it over before ignoring it and looking at the blood running down the blade, as the blood run over the engravings a weak red light start to shine from them, as more and more engravings gets filled with blood they start to shine brighter, looking at your wounded finger you draw it over the empty engravings, as soon as all the engravings are filled with blood the red light grow strong, almost blinding you before disappearing, showing that the engravings are filled in but your blood is gone.

Feeling giddy you dismiss the Glow and walk away to find the others and show them what you discovered. Reward: Can activate Clarent when you want, Clarent: +8 Martial, +4 Diplomacy, +2 Piety, Bonus against All forces when activated.

Right now you are watching the new recruits train, trying to see if any of them stand out from their peers, hearing footstep you turn your head to see Abbendis walk towards you, clad in full armor.

"Princess." He says with a slight bow. "Watching over the new recruits?"

"Yes, I´m looking for anyone standing out, though with them having only a months of training I´m not expecting much, I will be coming to look periodically in the coming months." You say before looking over at him. "And what are you doing?"

"I´m on my way to a spar with my daughter, I want to see how she has progressed with her training." Abbendis looks over the recruits. "They will be up to par when their training is completed, or I will take drastic actions."

You quirk an eyebrow in response to what he said but don´t say anything as you agree, they will either shape up to an acceptable level or be reassigned. Looking up at the sun you see that it is soon noon.

New Low Class Citizens: 500

Military: Saidan Dathrohan has been appointed the Grand Crusader, the one in charge of all military matters with Highlord Alexandros Mograine and High General Richard Abbendis as his subordinates. They have given you a report on the state of the military and the options that are open to you. They have also appointed Brigitte Abbendis as your bodyguard. (Pick 1)

Rebuild Our Forces: We took heavy losses in the battle for Corin´s Crossing and we will need to recover our troop numbers as soon as possible. Luckily we have enough armor and weapons available to let us outfit enough troops to return to pre-battle condition, though it will take time to train the troops to an acceptable level.
Cost: 5,000. Time: 3 Month. Chance for Success: 90% Reward: Scarlet Defenders, Crusaders and Archers restored to pre-battle numbers. Required: 10. Rolled: 49

-The training continues at a steady pace, so far there hasn´t been any major accidents. Will be completed next month.

Examine The Battle: We took unacceptable losses in the battle for Corin´s Crossing, we need to know what mistakes we made and what worked and didn´t work, so that we will be better prepared in future engagement, it will take some time to gather the information.
Cost: 1,000. Time: 2 Month. Chance for Success: 80% Reward; Knowledge on mistakes made in battle. Required: 20. Rolled: 37

-Abbendis has sent in the reports about the examination of the battle, there are several detailed and in depth reports to read but it can be summarized as this.

Scarlet Archers: Regular arrows were useless against skeletons, banshees and abominations and had limited effectiveness against zombie and ghouls, I suggest investing in heavier arrows against skeletons, zombies and ghouls and flame arrows against abominations, I asked our mages for ideas to use against the banshees and they suggested that we use enchanted arrows against them, unfortunately we don't have that kind of expertise amongst our mages.

Scarlet Defenders: I would suggest that we change their weapons, exchanging their swords to spears and pikes, letting them keep their distance from the enemy and preventing them from taking so many casualties, and while they may not be as effective at killing the enemy that isn´t their job, it is to hold the line.

Scarlet Crusaders: Keep them behind the main line and when the enemy meets the Defenders the Crusaders should move out to flank the enemy, pining them in place and letting us hack them apart.

Scarlet Knight: Use them like we did, to flank the enemies ranged units.

Scarlet Mages & Priests: Keep a few Defenders with them to protect against the enemies projectiles, the mages should focus on the enemies mages and abominations, while the priests focus on healing the wounded.

Scarlet Paladins: A small number on horseback to help the knights and the rest split between the main line to help against the abominations and the rest with the Crusaders to help flank.

The main mistake that was made was that we didn´t really have anything that could stop the abominations without taking heavy losses, as our mages were busy with countering the enemies spells and the Paladins were off luring the enemy to attack us, but didn´t return before the enemy attacked. Reward: Learned of how to improve army combat.

This accident will set us back as we will need to refill the tunnels and holes that appeared, making repairing the town cost more and be more time consuming because of the buildings that collapsed. Reward: Corin´s Crossing center collapsed, 90 Low Class Citizens lost their lives, Rebuild Corin´s Crossing cost more and take longer, need to fill hole before rebuilding.

Diplomacy: You are smart, beautiful and able to charm almost everyone you meet, is there any wonder why you have taken over the diplomatic aspect of the Crusade? (Pick 1)

You can see that while he hasn´t lost hope himself your survival has eased his worries for the future.

Nodding you look around, seeing the faces of the refugees and soldiers walking and standing around you think about what to say and return your gaze to Maxwell, the intensity of your gaze takes him aback.

Your voice rings clear in the courtyard, grabbing the attention of those nearby. "Lord Maxwell Tyrosus, Paladin of the Knights of the Silver Hand, leader of Light´s Hope Chapel, will you and those that follow you join me in my quest, will you follow me until I am crowned Queen in the Capital City and the last trace of the Plague has left these lands?

Maxwell is taken aback for a moment before he smiles and kneels down.

You can´t help but wonder what they thought in their last moments, did they think of their loved ones, did they think about what they will miss, did they hate you for sending them out to fight and die, but their deaths will not be in vain, for those that died in the past and for those that will die in the future, you will bring peace to this Kingdom again. Done with your prayer you stand up and start to move home.
Dark gray scales littering the ground vanishes.
When you arrive home you move over to the picture of your family, your mother is holding a young you with your fathers arm around her shoulder, your older sister stands in front of your mother wearing a purple dress and your brother stands in front of your father clad in blue suit fitting his status of Crown Prince. You knell and start to pray for them.

You don´t remember much about your mother, she died just a few years after you were born, all you can remember is a warm feeling and brown warm eyes.

You had your father wrapped around your fingers, maybe it was the combination of being the youngest daughter and a last memento of your mother but your father couldn´t say no to you, unless it was dangerous, otherwise you got what you wanted in one form or another.

You got along with your sister as you should get along with sisters, you fought, you made up, you tormented your brother and father, you can only hope that she is alive and safe.

You always had fun teasing your brother about anything really, mostly about Jaina during the time they were together or when you teamed up with Calia or Jaina, or both, and forced your brother to do embarrassing things.

You miss all of them, hoping that those you don´t know the fate of is safe and happy, but you won´t be able to be at peace until He has paid for what he has done.
The clock glows slightly.
You finish your prayers and change your clothing before starting your duties. Reward: ???. Reward: +1 Reroll.

You dash towards the planning room, bursting into the room you notice that the others have already gathered, Saidan starts to speak as soon as you enter the room.

"I just got a message from the Eastwall Garrison, one of their patrols discovered gargoyles lifting several carts over the Gorge, the patrol was too small to engage them and double backed to the Tower to get reinforcement, leaving behind some scouts, unfortunately by the time they got back the carts and gargoyles were gone and the scouts report that they were unable to keep up with them without being seen. We believe that the carts were the same ones that escaped Alexandros during the Battle for Corin´s Crossing."

Saidan motions towards the map.

"There are two possible places that the carts are heading towards, either towards Stratholme, which is the most likely destination, or towards Quel'Thalas and one of the Scourge bases there. We have no way of following their tracks so the only way to find out where they are going would be to infiltrate either Stratholme or Noxious Glade and hopefully find a clue."

Saidan glances at each of you.

"It is clear that the Scourge don´t want us to have whatever it is they are transporting, we must find out what it is. That is all I have to report, if there isn´t anything else we are done here."
