The army was massing, and I wasn’t there! It took us a few minutes to reach the rendezvous area, right next to the Portal Palace. The plan was to use the Palace’s energy to make a portal that could teleport an entire army.
I would estimate there were about 15,000 soldiers before me in formation. My generals were standing a few paces behind me, next to them stood my gang. 2 soldiers approached and helped me put on my gilded plate mail. I walked back towards my group and I signaled to Doodle. He raised his battle staff and casted an enchantment on my voice, amplifying it.
“Testing, testing: 1, 2, 3. is this thing on? It is? Very good.” I started by clearing my throat. “Warriors, mages, barbarians, pirates, and engineers: You have been called here today to do the impossible.” Murmurs rippled through the crowd. “But men, you have done the impossible already. We’ve created unity out of conflict; friendship out of suffering. Saradomin sits upon his throne, looking down at you laughing! Why? He enjoys watching you squirm! He underestimates us. He thought his rules would create distrust, which it has. But something happened thereafter that he did not foresee.” I sighed. “We grew tired. Tired of wars over a drink of water, tired of fighting our own, tired of living in filth and constant fear!” I said with emotion. Everyone was still, the only sound being the rustling of the trees.
“Eventually our hate for Saradomin outgrew the distrust, and it is hate what unites us. We can end this now! No more wars or fighting! We will all live as one for the betterment of our society. For this to come to pass, you must do me this one thing.” Everyone looked at me, I saw a few soldiers lick their lips in anticipation. “You must win!” I shouted and raised my fist. All the soldiers started cheering confidently. I turned to Wibble and gave him a nod. He nodded back, and raised his staff. His mages mirrored what he did.
