Ebony Veil, Morning. The warriors of Mol Rehan have continued their campaign of harassment against Libila's chosen, attacking this strategic town of the Horde of the Summoned for the last few days. There seems little let up in their Holy War.
Right outside the walls of Ebony Veil they waged a naval battle with three of Libila's warriors until they were chased off by the valiant defenders. Over the air they flung accusations that the damned ones were using majicks of the most despicable kind when one of theirs fell to the strong, cursed blades of the Horde.
This was not the end of the battle however, and this act of mercy upon the soul of the heathen known as ZarmaZarmaex to his comrades by Libila’s chosen soon triggered reprisals upon the faithful.
Mol Rehan returned with a greater force; their ranks swollen by enlisting simple townspeople to bolster their numbers as they took their vengeance for the death. Two more of Libila's towers crumbled to the Mol Rehan weapons, despite the heroic efforts of two villagers to halt the destruction by the hands of these infidels. The strange and insulting speech filled the air, mixed with words that made no sense whatsoever, but were shouted in the heat of revenge.

The date of this battle evades me. As followers of Libila, time seems to have less meaning the more it moves forward. I was on shore when I got word of a White Light raid force near Hell's Kitchen and made haste to see it for my own eyes. Upon arrival it was quickly determined that we were indeed under attack by a sizable force. There were 2 others in the village at the time; it was up to us to keep the attackers at bay.
Moments passed. It became hectic at times trying to determine which walls were under assault with few defenders and many walls, but we did prevail as the invaders appeared to run out of ammunition for their catapults. After some exchanged words, the Wilights scraped their brushes against our walls, perhaps as a taunt in frustration, and began to sail away.
Then our backup arrived. Some of the fiercest fighters in the Land of the Plague sailed in and cut off the Wilight retreat!... and so the naval battle began. Some of those defending inside the village decided to reciprocate some animosity towards the attackers and join the fight as well.
It was a true sight to behold. There were two boats under Her flag, and somewhere around six sailboats of a smaller variety, as well as a large Cog full of the Wilights. The battle raged for quite some time, the two Black Light boats would dart in and around making precise strikes at determined targets. They were clearly displeased with this insult to Her.
At times, I found myself simply lowering my bow and watching this beautiful display of combat. However, the battle would not last forever. The fastidious attacks from Her followers eventually took their toll on the Wilighters, sending two of them into Her hands. The wind shifted and the invaders decided it would be best to make use of it before more casualties ensued.
The fighters for Her sailed by; cuts and gashes on their body, dents and chips in their weapons and armour. But they had broad smiles on their faces: these were those who loved battle. We gave them a salute and sent them on their way back to the front lines. For now, the battle was over. |
