Advent of a Dirge RP

Tyra was at the peak of the mountain of Tears, home of the water alem. Looking two miles towards the Dragoth advance he noticed the Alem camp was deserted.

"What could of lead them to leave the dragoth to advance through our lands!" She mumbled outraged.

 

Kai stomach growled.

time to eat

he walked to the outskirts of a village, and saw a farm with a little cottage. the residents of the cottage seemed to be in a hurry to get somewhere. he walked over to the family.

"what's the hurry?"
"haven't you heard? the Dragoths are coming this way." said a man.

Kai looked at the family. It consisted of a mother, a father, and a son. Kai stomach growled again. Kai snapped his fingers. black chains erupted from the ground closing around Kai's victims.

"wwhat are yyou?" the father stuttered.
Kai smiled "do you need to ask?"
terror filled the fathers eyes "a Dragoth"

Kai smiled as he walked towards the mother.

"stay away from her!" the Father screamed

There was a flicker of annoyance in Kai's eyes. he snapped his fingers again and the chain that held the father got tighter. the father screamed and Kai, once again, snapped his finger but with more force. the mother and son cried out as the father's eyes started to bleed, and then the father's lungs collapsed. the chains dropped the limp body. Kai turn towards the mother. Kai's K-9 teeth grew into into vampiric fangs. the mother was to afraid to cry out as Kai bit into her neck. after about five minutes, Kai withdrew from the mother and the chain around her dropped as well. Kai looked over at the kid. He'd almost laughed when he saw the kid had actually pissed himself. Kai drew his sword and walked over to the kid. he swung his blade and ,once more, the chains dropped. as the chains disappeared, Kai fled into the woods leaving the bodies behind.

>just to let you know, Kai can survive eating regular food, but prefers to drink human blood<

 

Tyra heard cries from a farmhouse mere metres from where she was perched, running out from the building was a small enough figure with a sword.

Although she had never seen one before she knew what it was... a Dragoth.

She jumped off the tree it sinking back into the ground, she could smell the blood from the house door.. Chancing a look she stuck her head though the door, what she saw sickened her, she threw up against the wall, the taste in her mouth horridly unpleasent.

"Ill make that bastard pay!" She whispered using her patches to search for the figure.

 

Kareino had listened to Avel carefully. She hadn't nodded, she just looked at him all the time he had talked. Then she took few steps closer to him and asked, "Are going to leave alone?" she looked him into eyes and waited for the answer.

 

They had been traveling for 3 days. The sight of Sky Peak was a joy to behold because not only did it signify the end of their long journey, but also tells them that they are now safe. Large towers stood atop high walls, which encircled the entire city. As Xante watched on, he could not help but think 'Who could ever hope to breach these walls'.

After they passed the gates, each of the men split up to meet their families and friends, to greet loved ones all around the city. Xante, however, had no one to meet.

 

Tyra was stalking the Drogth for awhile now, she went unoticed. Every time he turned around she would disguse herself as a bush or tree. Leaving one in its place as he wont suspect somthing.

I need to get to the Sky peak... But i must finish this c##t off first

Tyra would normally shame herself from cussing.. But that was before she had seen just how horrid these vermin where

 

Kai knew something was following him because he could hear it. He didn't know the exact identity of the follower or followers but he was sure that he's seen the same bush or tree about five times now.

don't know what good it'll do to stalk me, but i don't have time for this

Kai walked over to a random tree and placed his hands upon it. a dark surge of energy went out of his hands and into tree. it turned pitch black and emitted darkness. the darkness downed out all light for about one mile. Since he only put enough energy in the tree to last for about ten minutes, Kai used his super human speed and ran back towards Sky Peak.

they can't follow me now

 

Gerik himself seemed to hurry more than the rest of his people. He couldn't understand why he wanted to get to Sky Peak, he just knew that he wanted to be there.

 

The sun was setting, it had been hours since the Dragoth escaped. Stupidly he done an attack to a tree, she had a taste of his power, which she would now use against him.

Tyra was stretching her patches beyond there normal bounds, She was searching for the skypeak. She had never been there before.

"I'm hungry" She mumbled pulling a ripe banana tree for the ground.

"Perfect" she said taking a bite of one

 

Xante was bored. He had been in the city for hours on end, but had nothing to do, no one to see. It was a relief to his ears when he found out that plans were being made as to the current crisis. It was also a surprise to hear that he had been invited to join the planning session.

'My reputation precedes me' he thought wryly as he walked towards the officers camp, where the planning would be done.

 

there's a mountain, there's a mountain, and, OH LOOK, another mountain

The landscape changed little on his way to Lugarith. once in a while he'd come across a rabbit to eat. the taste was foul but he couldn't risk being trailed again. about an hour later he saw Lugarith. towers attach to walls that rivals the height of the tallest mountains.

whistles "that's a huge F*@#^& wall"

he saw a group of villagers heading towards the gates. he quickly slide in among them, silently entering the fortress of his enemy.
he almost tripped over himself when he got a full view of the city. it was completely and utterly beautiful, at least compared to what he was used to. the architecture of each building seemed one of a kind and all equally amazing.

This place is AWESOME

thought for a moment

NOOOOOO, we have to destroy this town....dammit!

 

The commander's camp at Sky Peak was stuffy. Xante sat beside 2 experienced men, both who had faced many years of war, including the original with the Dragoth. Many more commanders sat around a rounded table.

"I knew that this would happen!" one of them shouted. "This is why we should have destroyed the Dragoth years ago!!"

"The past of no relevance whatsoever. The problem facing us now is our plan," Xante said. " Have we got one??"

"The nearest most fortified city is Lugarith," said the commander. "It is the best place to build up a defense to meet the Dragoth"

"Surely you wouldn't leave the army to burn our fields and villages?!" said another in outrage.

"We cannot meet the Dragoth on open lands. Their numbers are just too great." Xante said. "I think Lugarith would be the best course of action."

"Thats assuming Avel even lets us into the city. I don't trust those casoviers."

"He has no choice in the matter." said one of the experienced men. "His lands are also under threat. I'm sure an alliance would be a most attractive proposition"

"Good, lets get the men ready. We leave at dawn" said Xante, leaving the camp.

"Who put him in charge?" asked one of the officers.

"He took it upon himself, apparently." answered another

 

Tyra needed to quench her other hunger.. Pulling a large orb of water from the ground she began to drink..

"now the sky peek...." She mumbled, about 3 hours previous one of her patches.. the largest one had found it.. It was 6 miles southeast. Swalloing herself in a gaint dragon/hawk made of bark and moss she began to fly swiftly towards the destination

 

All of the Vac'Amen traveling with Gerik arrived at the base of the mountain, "Alright, Sky Peak is up near the top. It will take us some time, but that shouldn't matter. Pace yourselves and rest if you need to. Don't be too hard on yourselves."

 

Kai wandered the city for hours. there was barely anything that hadn't interest him. he noticed through his wandering, he was a little nervous about the number of Alem. he walked around on the cities limits, trying to find any weaknesses in the wall.

Dammit, not even one fracture

he knew he had to find some weakness in this fortress, or the Dragoth army would suffer serious damage.
