Chapter 18 – Places, everyone….
It was a quiet evening north of Varrock. An army waited, hundreds of thousands of men, waiting around a large tower. A hundred metres tall, a temple was situated in front of it. It hosted a grand archway, with many inscriptions and patterns that had survived millennia. On the stone steps, accompanied by eight hooded warriors, stood King Roald. All of the Lords of Dominance had assembled their full force to protect the tower, with the men of the late Lady Askula kept back as reserves. Roald turned to one of the men, a tall muscular man holding a large spear. “Lord Vular, move to the front. Rally the troops. I sense that the enemy are coming.” Vular grunted and jogged off towards the lines of troops. Roald turned to his senior advisor, Lord Martindale. “What’s the situation?” Martindale sighed and looked on to the horizon. “Everyone’s ready. Pike***, Archers, Mages, Magic carpets, Gnomecopters, Gnome gliders, the lot….” Roald smiled and his eyes followed Martindale’s to the hills a few miles away. “This battle will be remembered for eternity.” Roald turned back towards the temple entrance.
“So make sure we win.”
Ransar looked on grudgingly as he walked other the crest of the hill. About a mile away was the enemy force – a huge army nearing a million. The other officers gathered around him and he turned. He smiled weakly and drew his sword. “Well…this is it. I cant thank you all enough. But this is the final battle – the end. Everything we have sacrificed, everything we have fought for will only maintain its value if we win today.” He turned and pointed at the tower. “That thing has enough magic power to send one charge straight through the middle of the planet we live on – wiping out all life. We don’t fight for an RCR world. We don’t fight for our independence, or anything else of the sort. This is not about politics. This is about our quest to stay alive. By the end of the day you will either be dead or alive.”

“I’m determined it’s the latter.”
A round of applause erupted from the ranks. The one and a half million RCR troops had assembled. The officers would go forward with their own units * except for Kaitia, who, because of her injury, could not participate in close combat. She would co-ordinate the gnome copters. Armenk, the leader (Officially, anyway. Most seem to recognise Ransar as the head of the RCR.) would co-ordinate the archers and mages. Ransar, Emmerai, Taran, Darklago and Karenzi all moved forward to within 200 metres of the enemy, along with their battalions. The gnome copters hovered slightly behind.
Suddenly, someone broke from the ranks of the LOD troops. Lord Vular was a broken man – he was determined to cause as much pain as possible. He spotted Ransar talking to Taran and went straight for them. He threw a small dart and Taran dodged, but Ransar was too slow. Luckily, the dart deflected off his armour. As Vular charged in on a stunned Ransar to get the kill, an arrow sliced through the air and smashed him in the back. Blood trickled out of his mouth and he stumbled to the floor bleeding. Ransar smiled and picked up his spear, driving it into his dead body. Emmerai, the assassin, reloaded her bow and Ransar lifted his dragon longsword in the air. “FORWARD!”
Valicus began to run towards the front. He was with Kejii, and they were determined to do as much damage as possible. Kejii grinned. “Let’s go for that Karenzi guy. He looks easy. Hey, Val, I bet I could beat you in a ** Suddenly Valicus swept his legs away, pinned him to the ground and held his claws above his neck. “I told you, do NOT call me that. And you need to sort out your ego…its going to get you killed.” Kejii got back up. Embarrased, he turned to Valicus. “Well, are we going for him or what?” Valicus turned. “You can if you like. My men will help you. I’ve got something to end that has gone on for too long.” He looked across the small gorge, that was easily jumpable…..

Looking straight into the eyes of Darklago charging at him.
Tanis waited in his quarters. He heard the battle sounds begin to get louder as the fight began. He drew up his whip and smiled grimly. He had the job of personally protecting Lord Roald, as the other Lords of Dominance had sealed themselves inside the Firing Chamber, ready to charge up the tower. He walked through the underground corridors and out into the open air. He could see the battle raging and turned to Roald.
“Sir, may I cancel my duties and go after the enemy elite Taran?” Roald looked back at him and shook his head. “No. This is no time for revenge. We must hold our ground until the great tower is ready. Then brother, our life in heaven shall begin. Zamorak will reward us greatly. Anyway, I sense Ransar and Emmerai will come to get me personally. I’ll deal with the man himself – you will eliminate his friend.”
Death Fire and Taylor charged forward. They sighted Emmerai fighting off some pike*** – they charged forward. Death Fire ducked as a gnome copter was hit in the tail by a fire bolt and plunged to earth. Emmerai saw them and immediately drew her bow. She fired rapidly and Death Fire grabbed and a dead RCR man, using him as a human shield. Taylor snuck around behind her and beat her to the floor. She grabbed his arm and punched him with it, twisting it behind his back and getting out her dagger. She stabbed repeatedly through his arm and he yelped in sheer pain, turning to her. “Please! Please, stop I beg you!”
She stopped and held the knife to his throat as Death Fire stood there stunned. Unfortunately, it was a trick. As she began to drag Taylor away, Death Fire lunged at her with his new Veracs flail. She deflected it and it smashed straight into Taylor’s chest, knocking him to the floor. He swung the flail around again and it unbalanced Emmerai, so he swept away her legs with his and smashed her head on the floor. He bent down next to Taylor.

“Come on, you’ll make it, don’t worry Private we –“
It was too late. Taylor was dead. And Emmerai began to rise behind Death Fire.
