The disorintation (SP) of the transportation quickly faded when the site of a burning city, and thousands of people and machines fighting amongst it. "Amazing.." Alton stammered.

He commanded the army to stay put but led Abulard to the midst of the fighting. Much blood was being spilt and Alton stayed out of most of it.

"Abulard, this is your choice now, either follow me or return to Arcaykt" The redgaurd pondered the situation for a while and then looked up to Alton, "Even in the short days that I've known you, you have become a valuable ally, and a wonderful friend."

Alton nodded towards the man and then led the way through the battle, taking part in neither side.

Sel spotted someone he knew in the battle. Wasn't he dead though?

"Falx!" Sel shouted runnning towards him. When he reached him he smiled. "You're a welcome sight."

Time seemed to slow down as Sel noticed him, his instant reaction was do draw his weapon, but he forced it down. Promptly putting the best smile on his face extending his had he said,
"Sel, its been a long time. Dead men don't come back often." Alton, no Falx, looked around, "Seems that you all are having quite the brawl. Mind if I join in?"

Hah, Damn you and your tricky ways Arcaykt. Making me think that these people, my friends, would knowingly abondon me. Damn you, and damn those constructs!

Falx remebered the stone, the object that gave power to the army. Thoughts quickly raced into his mind, and it began as so.

The army of contructs began to turn on each other, including the undead minions. Outside the main battle a little one of several thousands of others fought it out, disasembling them, or slicing in the case of the undead servants.

"Hmph, that should do it."

Falx unsheathed his sword and charged head long into the battle.

York was surprised to still be alive, it seemed that Osano had distracted the archer from dealing the final blow. The arrows had been pulled from him as well but his strength had not fully recovered, he pushed himself to his knees and looked about, still weak from the loss of blood.

He picked up a bottle one of the archers had tied to his belt and opened it, first pouring some of it's contents on the ground to test if it was a "grenade" or a potion. Satisfied that the liquid hadn't burst into flame, he drank it quickly.

York felt himself become stronger as his minor wounds healed, he'd gotten lucky that one of the archers hadn't drank his healing potion. With the arrival of Arcyakt, he stood and searched for the archer or Sel. Hopefully Sel since he didn't have a bow.

OOC:Stupid bows...and mages....
You should've killed him Seeker...too late now I suppose.

Megil walked out of the Ald'rhun mages guild covered in rubble and dust. Arcyakt had simply demolished the city.

what a coward. I'm just glad i got the women and children out of there, and that the men were all out making as much of a dent as possible into Alton's army.

He emerged to see a raging battle going on around him, he didn't hesitate and let the anger and rage take control of him. two blade of water formed in his hands, he slipped through the constructs like a silent spring, with every slash corroding the constructs into rust. The constructs could not touch him, since he struck before they sensed his presence.

Konrad brought up his shield to block the axe blows, and when he saw the incoming head, brought up his blade to the man's neck.

"Just leave me be. If we are a bunch of screaming chickens...what are you? A bunch of rustbuckets and maggot houses. Can you not see who you have joined because of a simple mistake? You have helped the killing of thousands of innocent lives...and don't think Arcyatk will be happy with you once he sees you joined without him knowing."

Anthanes got up from between a pile of rubble. Damnable constructs.

"YAAGGGH!"

The battlemage carved a way to Megil through the constructs, strikes from Fearstruck paralyzing them where they stood.

Shakur had his archers ready thier arrows when a group of zombies rushed at them, but when the shots to the heads of hte zombies struck, the zombies hadn't fallen. "Halbidiers, down and up!" as Shakur finished his words, 25 Halbidiers crouched with their long wepon facing the zombies, while the 25 lined up behind them with thier halbidiers stretched towards the zombies. The undead monsters hit the wepons hard, and as they swung thier arms and atempted to break free, Shakur and the swordsmen came around thier backs decapitating them. "Good job men! Regroup!" yelled an officer, taking the words right out of Shakur's mouth. The men regrouped and a few of the stronger soldiers along with Shakur grabbed some more arrows from the nearby destroyed armory.

Osano resheathed his sword and emerged from behind the building. The battle had taken on a new life. Arcyakt was also there and Alton. Osano saw Alton shaking hands with Sel and ran up to him. "What the hell are you doing Alton? This man is your enemy, cut him down!," he said pointing to Sel.

ooc I would have but Shogun came....


Otik saw Osano walk away, He left him, My fight is with York. Once Otik reached the spot were he left York he was shocked (to say the least, to find that the man was gone, saw the contents of a potion on the ground and started to panic. He knew that York was probebly looking for him and wasn't as wonded. Oitk's only chance of beating York was that York didn't know Otik was looking for him. I hope


ooc i'm going to an orthidontist(sp?) today will get back when I can

Anthanes then remembered something - the Under Skar, which was a bit damaged, and also a bit undefended. Letting out a series of Dunmeri curse words, he ran towards the hollowed-out dead emperor crab, ignoring the battle as he ran to the council hall. The entrance seemed to be covered with debris.

"Grrn.. Hang on in there... V'laash SHARMATHZKAM!"

The rubble promptly exploded, revealing the entrance through which the half-dunmer stepped.

"Status?"

Miner Arobar the Redoran Councilman who had been left to help supervise turned towards the ruckuss. He nodded. "We're fine in here, aside from being trapped 'till you showed up."

"Hrm... Good." Saluting, Anthanes ran back outside, finding his way to the breach where he moved to stand next to Shakur. "Everything in order here...?"

York moved quickly through the battlefield in search of any commanders or generals, slaying any that tried to stop him. He held two grudges now, one against Selenil and one against the archer that had nearly killed him.

He knew that he would have to get close enough that the archer couldn't shoot him with that bow and if he were to meet with Sel, he knew that he'd have to be quick and not get hit with his new blade.

As far as York knew they both could've died by now in all that was happening around them and he figured that Osano had killed the archer anyways so he continued to fight with the footsoldiers. The halberdiers were taking out too many of their troops as well, it all depended on which commander he found first.

Anthanes, spotting the officer he'd seen earlier, smirked. He sheathed Fearstruck, took out his bow, nocked back a cruel, pitchblack arrow, and fired at York's neck.

Shakur looked to Anthanes and said "We're doing great here, but they could have reinforcements coming soon. It would be great if we could get some more grenades and mines but otherwise we're good". Shakur smiled and gave an Imperial salute to Anthanes, partially joking, partially seriously.

"I can't magically conjure up more, unfortunately!" , Anthanes said after he let the arrow go. "We'll just have to trust on steel and sorcery!"

York heard something whistling and turned, just ducking in time for an arrow to miss his neck. He looked around half expecting the archer from the wall, but saw the damnable mage from earlier. He would kill him this time, and the officer commanding the halberdiers as well.

Be picked up a shield from one of the bodies and strapped it on, unsheathing his blade he slowly walked towards the mage on the wall. The occasional soldier stopping him for a moment before he killed him.

Alright, mage first....commander second...or commander first and mage second....

He kept the imperial shield ready in case of another arrow.

"I was hoping you knew of a good armory, but I guess that's out of the question now that those damn constructs attacked our weponry shacks" Shakur said. He noticed York as the arrow flew towards him. "Men! I'll be in plain site and will be back in a moment. Xcasius is in charge so follow his orders!" Shakur said before running towards York, Shehai summoned.

"SECONDED!" , Anthanes shouted before running after Shakur, Fearstruck at the ready.

Shakur kept running at York, he was faster than usual now that the only armour he wore was an ebony helm and some ebony boots. He got closer and closer to York, and Hircine started talking in his head. "Strike with agility and grace! Fight as a wolf! Hunt his moves with speed and wits!" Shakur jumped high into the air, slicing at York with his Shehai but being deflected.

OOC: let's make this fight awesome.

OOC: I'll edit if I need to.
IC: York looked at the two men running at him together, knowing he might have trouble with both of them he yelled loudly hoping he was nearby,

"Osano!"

He slumped down a bit into his battle stance and readied his blade and shield.

Dammit..where is Osano when you need him?

Anthanes smirked as he charged at York. "Prepare to be painfully eviscerated, fool!" With that , he slashed Fearstruck at York's groin.

Osano heard his named called. He looked around the battlefield and spotted York, with Shakur and Anthanes engaging him. Osano drew his sword and sprinted towards York and stepped in front of him blocking Anthanes blade; but Shakur flew overhead of him.

Osano breathed heavily, he was tired. His hands were shaky and he was hungry. He had fought more in the past days than he had in his life.


OOC: there

Shakur threw a hard punch, hoping to swing his arm back after which would plant the glass spikes of his gauntlets inside of Yorks face.

OOC:Pretend this is after Sniper's last post...crap...I could've swore I added the part where I blocked his hit.

IC: With Osano's arrival he felt more at ease, though he was tired and hot in his heavy armor. The commander flew at him from above, York barely bringing his shield up in time to block it and barely keeping himself from falling.

He shuffled back to his feet and watched his opponent carefully, allowing him to make the next move.

Anthanes turned towards Osano. He let out a battlecry consisting simply of "YAGGH!" before beginning to give carefull and well-timed slashes at Osano.

He's the better fighter. I'll need to just keep him at bay.

Ok, I edited to make this all make sense. Shakur is punching at Yorks face with a plan.

Oh that's great...I edited to make it right...

Ok, then I'll re-edit.

"Hircine" Otik said under his breath "help me hunt down this scum and finish him off" At that moment he heard a cry for help from what sounded like York wow that was fast Otik grined and ran in the direction of the cry. He got there to see a brawl, so Otik kneeled down and shot and arrow at York knowing he would probebly not miss.

(ooc I coun't just leave you alone kiln )

Osano evaded Anthanes swarm of attacks. "It's a nice sword you have. But it deserves to be in the hands of a swordsman," he jumped back to regain himself then lunged at Anthanes thrusting at him; All the while watching York out of the corner of his eye.

It seemed that the mage was distracted by Osano and he couldn't use any area spells because his men were all too close to the fight now.

York swung at his opponent, trying to hit him in the shoulder but half way through he saw that pesky archer drawing back and releasing an arrow.

He grabbed a nearby imperial soldier and forced him to be hit by the arrow, and took his sword away, throwing it at the archer as hard as he could before returning his attention back to the commander.

The commander was distracted by other things so he kicked him and ran off toward the archer.

OOC:This is really hectic so if I screwed up let me know.

ooc: you 4 were fighting and I came in and shot an arrow at York. don't know the specifics but that didn't involve my char so I just posted, if anyone wants to yell at me do it now....

OOC: Ok, I have to leave very, very soon. So if I go off, Dantrag might cover for me.

Anthanes grinned as he parried the blow with Fearstruck. "It belongs in the gullet of a certain swordsman!" With that, he gave a slash at Osano's legs.

Otik had another arrow on his bow when he saw what York had done, he started shooting arrow after arrow and then realised he was shooting out in hate and tried to restrain himslef. Otik paused and took a deep breath and saw the sword flying at him, thanks goodness this guy can't aim to well He dodged the sword and drank a fatigue(sp?) potion and stood up again to see howw much damage he did*



*hint

Osano was quick. He jumped and landed with his right foot on top of Anthanes sword, digging the tip into the ground. He put power behind his next swing and aimed it Anthanes neck just as one Otik's stray arrows struck him in the left shoulder.

Anthanes dodged just in time for Osano's sword to pierce through the half-dunmer's left pauldron instead. Gritting his teeth, the battlemage yanked Fearstruck out of the ground and smirked.

"Mothanu, v'laash, sethano!" A lightning bolt shot from his finger to Osano, and Anthanes used his force of will - and the ring made by Azura - to allow it to breach magical defences.

York moved out of the path of the arrows, there wasn't enough power behind them to hit him before he moved. The shots were accurate but not very fast. York picked up a "Grenade" off the ground and pitched it at the archer as he made his way closer and closer to him.

Otik saw the grenade coming and jumped out of the way, brusing his side. He sat up and grapped his side, picked up his bow. He pulled out a special ebony arrow and pulled it back as far as he could. First he Looked to see if there were anysoldiers around and then loosed his arrow at York, aiming at his chest.


ooc crop people want to get on the computer sorry kiln don't kill otik

Osano put his hand up in some sort of attempt to block the magical attack. But the bolt struck his hand and sent him backwards a few feet. Osano did a back flip to try to keep his balance and landed on his feet but then fell to the ground. That was strong. Ungodly strong. Osano thrust his sword into the ground and picked himself up. He readied his sword and stood there for a moment before falling down to one knee. I can't win against him with -that- kind of power. I'll lure him in close. Osano stood up once more and dodged into the shadows of building and waited.

The sun was beginning to rise and the destructuction to both sides was becoming visible.

Postaging after the other guy. Off to eat, will be back in a few mins

OOC: Hope that arrow wasn't something that should kill me right away...

IC:The loudest crack York ever heard in his life occurred at that moment, as the arrow struck him in the chest hard and penetrated deep into the flesh beneath his armor, blood ran from his mouth and he choked on it half laughing, surprised at the strength behind the archer's final shot.

"You'll never shoot a bow again you...you...annoying son of a cliffracer." York said staring at him

He'd hoped to be killed honorably in close combat with a blade but this archer had ended it for him. His time was ending, but he would kill the archer as his last act before his death.

Anthanes smirked. With Osano out of the way, he proceeded to thrust Fearstruck at York's side.

OOC: I'm guessing it's time to kill of York completely.

IC: Shakur walked towards the dieing Kiln. Anthanes hadn't retracted the blade yet, and Shakur wanted to please Hircine with a nice slashing. He put his Shehai into his right hand, and using his glass gauntlet, punched York hard across the face. But that was not all, he pulled his arm back, pushing the glass spikes of his gauntlet into the face of York. He retracted the gauntlet from York's face and walked back to his army.

Serene was very worried about her friends....she decided to do something for them..so she levitated over the so called battlefield..casting fortification spells at her friends....Anthanes did a heroic action making the poor folks in Under Skar be able to get in and out so they could get some supplies.....

Hope this will make up for all my intrusions she thought as she hovered over Ald´ruhn like a huge cliffracer....

That's sickening. , Anthanes thought as he saw Shakur's action. Not wishing to be alone and by himself on the battlefield he pulled Fearstruck out of York and followed after Shakur, fairly sure that York wouldn't survive.

Shakur felt rejuvinated as magick powers touched him and then realised something. Osano had used a ruby to transport at the end of their pleasent conversation, maybe York had one too. Instead of turning and searching his body, he yelled "Anthanes, search his body and bring me anything interesting". He walked back to his army, who cheered and talked. Shakur couldn't help but smile.

OOC: Ok, I gotta go again. Shakur's just going to hang out with his army.

"Right!" Anthanes ran back to York, pushing him onto the ground, and after some searching took the ruby. With a broad grin he jogged back to the breach. "What of this?"
