…A month has passed…
While the Thief turned King prepares his strike on the Fallen Empire of Yithril, he has also had to deal with the rising power of a local Bandit Lord. Their first incursion is met by the growing power of Capitar.
Roland came prepared. With a party of archers and observers (along with Janusk and “Muggles”) the Brigands would find that Resolve was not easy prey.
The Bandits would learn a harsh lesson.
The Thief and the Weaver
Roland was no stranger when it came to dealing with the fairer sex. But since his epiphany in which he turned away his life robbery, he had focused his time on building up his kingdom.
But when he met Raline, his world was changed.
Janusk the Scribe recognized the importance of the meeting immediately.
“Sire, it is said that Channeling can be inherited. If you truly love her then perhaps a union can be made that will, in time, bear children.”
The Kingdom had become reasonably prosperous and Roland’s fame had grown to the point that his reputation was now high enough that most families would consent to their daughters marrying him. In short, Roland had become respectable.
“Janusk, my friend, I would like you to escort the queen back to Resolve. There she will be safe.”
Janusk was wary of leaving his lord’s sire but obeyed.
As a wedding gift, Raline bought Roland new equipment for battle. “I’ll feel better knowing you’re not running around like some Brigand.”
“Heh,” said Roland. “Yea, those Brigands.”
“Which reminds me, why do you continue to wear that head band? The highway men in the western wastes wear those. Where would you even get one?”
“Oh, yea, that. I just like the look of it.”
Without further discussion, Roland left for war.
Verga Arrives
8 months after leaving for war, Roland’s forward scouts had spotted Verga. What they saw made them tremble in fear. Verga, unlike Roland, had obviously found midnight stones and had them forged into a mighty weapon. He had also equipped himself with superior armor.
While Roland had a summoned bear, Verga had summoned a Stone Giant. He also had quite a few soldiers with him.
Deciding to withdraw, Roland found the way behind him had become increasingly dangerous. The no-man’s land between Yithril and Capitar was rapidly filling with monsters of increasing lethality.
It would take another 3 months to get home.
The long trip back would bring welcome news…
In 18 or so years, Sandra would become a powerful Sorceress. That is, if the kingdom of Capitar survived that long.
On the Offense…
Now it was my turn to strike back.
The battle for Yithril…
Verga himself was not present. But his son was in the battle.
Muggles, our long companion was gone. But Roland was victorious.
Conquest
The destruction of the main Yithril army meant that Haru was largely defenseless and would fall.
The War between Yithril and Capitar would span a decade…
One by one, Yithril’s cities were conquered.
And new allies would be brought on board.
They told Roland of a new Empire to be aware of…Umber.
Roland would send an emissary to learn more about Umber. Who were they? Were they friendly?
The situation was not looking promising…
…To be continued…
