“No shit sherlock, why do you think I came here reporting losses.”
@Ami
“While am I here, I will listen directly to the report.”
Dinara, who looks almost exactly like Alicia, address them.
“I’m Dinara. Master Archmage’s apprentice.”
There was a force around 500 skeletons I think, we had around 40, we tried to use our numbers however we could in the best way possible
@Shurian
“Ww received a similar report beforehand. The army consist of skeletons as far as we get. Do you see any other type of undead present?”
There was a vampire as well. Not sure how many. I suggest razing the city. It’s a lost cause
@Shurian @FadeBlade
“If Master is here, that is what we will do, but… He’s away.”
Dinara shrugs.
"My position is equal to the local army general at best, and I don’t think they will be willing to march out there to attack the army just because I ask them to. "
There needs to either be a recapture effort or raze it. Its the inly two options
“I say we observe them. We need information more than anything. That is one of the fundamentals of war.”
@Damafaud @Ami
“Waiting just gives him more power, Raze it or recapture. Those are the only two logical soultions”
@Shurian
“Recapture is not an option when the only available army hasn’t gone to war for the past four years and lead by nobles without an inkling of experience against undead.” Dinara cuts into the argument.
“I was planning to involve the civilians before the two of you arrived.”
Then put someone who knows what they doing. Raze or recapture! These are the only two options
“You’re being a bit disrespectful,” she says.
“Disrespect be damned. These are the only two logical options. Raze or recapture…”
@Shurian
“And I have told you, the political situation in Holy Capital makes it impossible to do both,” she continues
“besides, although Light Shire is close to the Holy Capital, the army doesn’t have enough incentive to march all the way there. Most likely they will reinforce the already heavy reinforced wall, pull up the draw bridges, and wait until Master arrive.”
how long until the archmage comes? we need to inform him
@Shurian @Ami
"I will contact Master later, but Master has been gone for over three weeks. He won’t be able to return swiftly. "
“I’ll do it. Get any willing man and we’ll depart in the morning to raze Light’s Shire”
@FadeBlade @Shurian
Dinara puts on a smile.
“The help is appreciated. I haven’t caught your name earlier. What it may be?”
“Egnatius. I live to die in the service”
Dinara what do you think should happen with lights shire?
