(continued from previous page)

Since there was nowhere else to go, besides jumping back down into the aqueduct but that probably wasn't the best idea to escape, Poca followed the soldier, going up the stairwell. Eventually, the stairwell led to the walls, the walls having their own walls and a ceiling and looking like a narrow hallway with a line of window frames. Numerous chunks of windows were broken off from boulders launched by catapults. The devils seemed to be climbing into the walls via siege ladders, placed against the walls, allowing the devils to climb through the windows or broken chunks of wall.

Various devils (much smaller than the first Poca just encountered) and elven soldiers fought in this wall, the devils more numerous and more aggressive, equipped with shields and various weapons, especially war hammers, battle axes and maces to better counter the heavily-armoured elves, whereas the elves often gripped their curved swords to better fight the lightly-armoured Vaal'Amar. Some elves were on the floor, and had devils mounted atop them and beating them senseless or ramming knives into the gaps of their armour.

“We must cut our way through them!” the soldier with Poca said, then charged forth, ramming his glaive clean through a devil, then unsheathing his sword and cutting to and fro. The wall beside him suddenly exploded; a boulder launched by a catapult struck the wall, sending debris, devils and elves flying off their feet.

As the dust fluttered, Poca had a chance to initiate her next move. Most devils and elves still standing were stunned from the loudness of the launched boulder, but more devils were climbing up the ladders outside leading up to the walls...

Analee lifted her hands and looked at them in amazement. What was it that she had just done? She looked over at Talarin as he got up. The roots that were just around them subsided while the tree demon was distracted. Moving her gaze from Talarin back to the tree demon, she watched as he began to turn back around. The demon let out a howl as it began to move towards them once more.

The embers brightned and ashes rose as he moved. The demons temper seemed to have risen. Talarin yelled out as the demon made its way towards them, crawling. The roots began to rise up, trying to grab their legs.

Analee looked around for a way to help. Looking up at the tree demon, she saw Talarins javelin that he had thrown at the tree demon earlier. Embers were slowly drippin out from where the javelin was penetrated as though they were the demons blood. Maybe it was? Looking down at her hands, she lifted them up and closed her eyes, unsure if it would work on command or not.

The javelin began to move, slightly twitching on its own. Analee was trying to forcefully push the javelin in deeper with her thoughts. The demon cried out in pain as the javelin slowly pushed its way deeper beneath the bark of the demon. Everything around Analee had became quite as she focused.

Poca was surpised she has just defected the devil. She took the sheild for more protection and followed the elf soldier who told her that she can help. She was happy that the elves doesnt relized that she was a prisoner that just escsped from their prison. She climbed up the stairs. She was about to attack on of the devil but the building shock again and she fell down again. She got up from the ground and saw that the devils and elves stood there stunned. She took that opportunity to attack the devils and killed some of them. Then she shot fire balls hoping to kill more of them. -Dances-

Analee

Realizing the potential of her psionics, which clearly had an affect on the physical world, Analee focused her power into the javelin, forcing it deeper into the tree-demon with decent results. The spearhead must have damaged the tree-demon's equivalent of organs and bones. The demon was injured and slowed down. Suddenly, the demon thrust itself forth, unleashing a wave of shadows at Analee, which hit her and she fell over; the impact did not break her skin, but it did stun her. The tree-demon also seemed to possess some sort of shadow-magic.

Talarin took the advantage and, in a sudden rush of bravery, ran forth, jumping at the tree-demon before it had time to react after casting its shadowy magic, and as the young elf descended, swung his axe into the demon's head. Immediately, cinders burst out its mouth and eyes. Talarin repeatedly swung his axe in both hands against the demon's face, hitting it until its head splintered open, leaking embers. Feeling his heart beat rapidly and his breath quiver, Talarin did not relent, and hacked the damn thing down while Analee continued her psionics, presumably either while lying down or having gotten up.

Soon, the tree-demon collapsed with a loud exhale, smoke and coals fluttering out its mouth. Once it fell, the coals subsided in brightness, and the darkness gradually dissipated, slowly revealing the rising sun as dusk ended.

“Are you alright?” Talarin asked, running to Analee to see how she was...

Fortress Naamoth

The devil dealt with, Poca took its spiky shield, why not? This also meant the total weight of her armour, backpack, supplies and shield began to take its toll, and she would not be as agile as she normally would be. Since she wore an elven soldier's helm, the other elves would not know she was a prisoner, but would not be convinced she was a real soldier, either.

Once she got up to the walls, a catapulted boulder smashed into it, and with the quickness and reflexes of a ferret, Poca quickly dispatched a few of the Vaal'Amar, stabbing through their necks or into their stenum to take them out; at the same time, a few elves jumped to fight with her, stabbing into and pressing the devils down with their glaives to help her kill them. Then, she cast fiery projectiles at the other devils, the flames roaring loudly in the interior of the wall, exploding against the devils and putting them on fire, which made them howl aloud and panic, dancing from pain! The blazing devils were easy targets for the elves.

Poca did not seem to initiate anything against the siege ladders outside that led up the walls and allowed the devils to pour through the windows or holes. A few of such ladders reached the holes outside, and few by few, more Vaal'Amar appeared; it was only a matter of time before too many devils swarmed into the wall. One devil charges Poca, so she rammed her spiky shield into his arms, stifling his attack, then stabbed him in the waist, where blades easily pierced, and he was then finished-off by an elven halberdier.

“Watch out! Enemy reinforcements climbing the siege ladders!” one of the glaiviers shouted.

One brave elven soldier gripped his halberd in both hands and charged, ramming it through a devil just as the devil reached the wall, and pushed him off the wall, glaive still inside the devil's body (but this also meant the elf lost his glaive).

The elf then rushed to the ladder, unsheathing his curved sword, and began chopping at the devils climbing the ladder.

Along with some of the elven soldiers, those who had fallen down from the boulder earlier had picked themselves up by this time. Poca engaged with the devils, blocking their attacks with her shield and counter-attacking by shield-bashing the spikes and with her blade, her helmet and mail protecting her further, but being so small and faced with top-heavy weapons, the blows staggered her; she would not be able to sustain the barrage of much stronger enemies.

To make things worse, the odds were against the elves, for more and more would be gradually climbing the ladders and pouring into the wall. Nevertheless, supported by heavily-armoured elves, Poca would resist attacks for a while.

"There will be too many of them soon!" an elf soldier shouted, being rammed against a wall, then exchanging blows with his devilish foe.

Poca noticed that there was a small hole in the other side of the wall; she would be able to squeeze through it, and so be above the courtyard, away from the fighting. Perhaps there was something she could do about the siege ladders set against the walls outside?



Annie,
Poca can either flee through the small hole in the inner-facing side of the wall, leading to the courtyard (outer bailey) at the centre of the castle, or swerve her way onward through the elves and devils, and continue going down the interior of the wall.

Poca may be able to deal with one siege ladder and so give the elven soldiery a chance at defending the wall but this will only prolong the inevitable; is there anything you can think of to getting rid of a siege ladder? The siege ladders are made of dry wood.

Analee stood with her eyes close as she focused on her thoughts on pushing the javelin in. It must have worked because she heard the tree demon let out a cry. Opening her eyes, she saw as it began to slow down, ember pouring out of its wound. Suddenly, the tree demon pushed itself forward, casting a group of shadows at Analee.

She felt herself be picked up and tossed backwards to the ground. She was stuned for a moment. Pushing herself up, she continued what she was doing before. Before her she could see Talarin chopping at the demons face.

The next thing she saw was the tree demon exhale, smoke and coals poured out of its mouth as it fell to the ground with a thud. Analee put her hands down and let out a sigh. They defeated the tree demon. Looking up, she saw the darkness begin to subside, revealing the rising sun. Slowly, Analee pushed herself up to stand just as Talarin approached her.

"I'm ok. I have had worse" she told him. Analee was filthy. Dirt and ashes covered her face and cloths. Around her neck was brushing from where the whip had held her. And on the back of her neck was a welt from where the whip hit her. She was physically and mentally drained. "Are you ok?" She asked, looking him over.

"Thanks for saving is" she told him, forcing a smile on her face to hide the pain. Then she remembered, Buruk! Turning, she started to look around. "Buruk!" The last thing she teetered was the tree demon slamming him to the ground. "Buruk! Please be ok!"

Retinue: she has a black horse named midnight (tier 2) and ofcourse, a raven.

Backstory: (history of character(s) and mount(s); Mirada had a hard life. She grew up as an orphane. She had to grow up on the streets. Growing up like that, she quickly learned how to steal to survive. Everytime she thought she would find a new home, people would cast her out. Eventually she gave up on humanity and started to look out for herself.

As she got older, she joined the black diamond guild, where she became an assassin. At some point, a friend of hers was killed by her hands due to a set up. Because of this she left and is now on her own. No one knows her real name, only her guild name , The Raven.

Poca ran forward attacking the devils and the other enemies and killed that was infront of her by swinging her sword fake left and many other different swings to kill them.

Then she did a loop right hitting trying hit it on its leg but, it douge her attack. It attacked her trying to stab her in the hip, she was able to blocked it with her shield and finally killed it. Then another enemy came toward her with a dagger she tried to block with her shield but to was to slow and she was stab in her left arm. She screamed in pain. She killed more of them with her fire attacks. She kept fighting even though she was wounded.

As Poca ran to attack more enemies she found she saw a hole in the wall that she was able to fit threw. She decided not to go threw the hole because she didnt want the elves to think she was weak and she was planing to defeat those dang ladders.
