Kirandar and his troops was trapped, but since Kirandar was stuborn he wouldn't surrender and tried to at least destroy the siege machines. While the battle raged on Naxxarus felt the present of two people searching the land of Ashan, It was Maarn and someone else. Then he heard it "Naxxarus, master Naxxarus." Naxxarus felt one of his stalkers calling out for him "I'm here, what is it?" Naxxarus heard the stalker think about it and suddenly got information about the hideout of the rebels, that they had decided to stay and hold their ground, the fake gem Kaļ used to trick others to believing it was the artifact, while he had secretly putted the artifact into his shield, and something about that elfs dreams that had been about; Elf, chaos & Axenoth. Hearing all this Naxxarus was glad he had planted the infiltratiors "Your dissmised" Naxxarus though and pushed away the thoughs of the stalker and decided to send some reports to the dwarfs and Wrylkar. Naxxarus casted a spell and killed three birds that was above him and made them undead, after that he gave them each a report telling about the defences of the humans and that he suggested a siege without combat, but one of the reports didn't have the siege without combat but it had all the information Naxxarus had gathered, then he opened three portals and sent one to the dwarfs and one to Wrylkar while the last one with the longest report, got sent to Maarn.
Sometime later Kirandar's troops was defeated and the liches who had survived surrendered. The liches was now infront of Naxxarus, there were five of them. "So, you finally come to your senses and surrendered, now where is Kirandar?" the liches looked on each other and said "Kir...andar? Wasen't he a part of your army Naxxarus?" Naxxarus got abit surprised then he said "Don't try to tick me, it stood clearly in the report that it was Kirandar that attacked our siege machines! Now where is he?!" Before any of the liches got to say something Moltana came fourth and said "We believe it was Kirandar who stood behind this, Naxxarus, what happend here was that my troops, that these liches was a part of, suddenly attacked us and said "For Kirandar and the rebellions!" we though that he had casted the mind control spell over the troops." Naxxarus looked at Moltana and said "Don't be a fool! Kirandar is smarter then that and doesn't leave his name on anything he does! It's clearly that someone wanted us to believe Kirandar was behind this, I wonder who it was...None the less, to make sure your still under our control we will have to "cleanse" you." The liches and the undeads got panick as they heard what Naxxarus had said, but before they could do something they were all dead and Naxxarus raised them again. "Now" Naxxarus said "Lets get back to the army."
OOC: It's nice to have stalkers as infiltraitors right?  Now, the dwarfs and the undeads will surrond you and starve you to death, MUHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!

OOC: okay, the map recreated the picture I had about the battlefield. ohh yeah, if you are wondering why everyone is together, Naxxarus and company of liches teleportet so to the necropolis army and from there teleported to the dwarfs.
IC: "So you suggest a starvation of the enemy Naxxarus? You should know that it would take to much time and the dwarfs would get impatient, we were lucky they at least waited for us so we could develop a siege plan." Wrylkar said. He, Naxxarus, Marlak, Moltana, Vayrath Ordom and other commanders of both the dwarven and undead army sat in an tent with the map of the area on a table between them, planning the siege. "We are lucky that the rebels haven't noticed us and our camp here in the forest" Ordom said. "True enough, Wrylkar. I just though the plan with minimal loses would be best, but atleast I'm glad you putted up an blockade just in case. Luckely, the rebels haven't noticed that ghost who is surronding their base in the air and our camp, surronding them in the forest." Naxxarus replied "Can we stop using the word "luck"? It's annoying me, we all should know after long time with warfare that luck dosen't exist." Moltana said. Vayrath, whom for some reason had given himself totally over to the undead legion and was a trustworthy person, putted fourth a battle plan "What if we do it like this?"
"We could hope we get the element of surprise, but that would be a fools hope. I'm sure there have been placed dark elfs stalkers around the forest, and I'm sure that we all here, at least Naxxarus, seing as he uses stalkers as infiltraitors in the enemies base, that the stalkers are very good at hiding." Naxxarus was shocked "How do you know about the infiltraitors i putted in there?" Vayrath smiled at Naxxarus "Well, I just happened to pass by the tent when you sent them out, now please share with us the knowledge you got about their defences."
After telling the people in the tent about all the defences, and that the ranger had gotten a special mission Vayrath continued with his plan. "Well, this makes it hard, but I still have the plan about how we will do this, I'm glad you putted a barrier around this tent Naxxarus, cause if the enemy got to know our plan we would be screwed." Marlak started to get impatient "Enough stalling, tell us the plan already!" Vayrath continued "Well, I'm planning a surprise attack, while we attack them headon, we will digg tunnels using diggers and mages who can use the portals to transport the earth somewhere else, and when they least expect it, we pop ut right in the middle of the base. What do you say about that?" Vayrath waited for the answer, it seemed like Ordom and Wrylkar liked the idea, and that was all that counted actually, but the Naxxarus and Marlak was still suspisious to Vayrath "Wait, what garantie do we got that you are not a spy?" Marlak said Vayrath simply answer "Your control over me and the honour of dark elfs." Wrylkar then said "As long his dark elf his honour stands, now back to the plan, we'll need to dig the tunnels from a spot where the rebels wont understand what happens, any suggestions?" Moltana had the answer to that question "We'll just some of the liches make portals so we teleport underground, so simple is that." Wrylkar nodded "Well, we'll do that, also Naxxarus, we'll need more troops so please summon more to our base." Naxxarus just made a quick nod and Wrylkar continued "We'll do it like this, when we are ready to strike, I will lead the attack through the tunnels, while Ordom and his dwarfs take care of the siege engines. Marlak, you'll have command over the undead ground troops. Naxxarus, you and the liches, who isen't in the tunnels with me, will take wings and shoot magic from above, Vayrath ride one of the bone dragons and lead the flyign troops and Moltana, you'll be making sure nobody attacks us from behind, who knows what that rangers mission was, give help were it's needed, but your primary mission is to guard our backs. Do all agree on the plan?" A nod from everybody was enough, not that the commanders except for Ordom could complain either, Wrylkar had higher rank then the rest. "Ohh, and before I forget it, the artifact needs to be removed, so if you don't mind Naxxarus, give some magical effects to the stalkers inside the fortress and make them attack Kaļ and steal his artifact.
As the preporation started, Moltana started making sure nobody was in the woods and did what she could to keep spies away.
Marlak gave instructions to his officers and said that if they needed him he would be at the north side, where he could have better view over the land.
Naxxarus and the liches made portals to reinforcment bases and got several new guys in, plus enoguh griffins for Naxxaurs liches, but when someone commented that Naxxarus didn't take a griffin Naxxarus took fourth some mana potions and said "With these and the "Avatar of Darkness" spell, I'm gonna be just fine."
Just as Marlak, Ordom gave instructions to his dwarfs and told them that he would be on the north side where he would have best overview of the battle.
As many of the dwarfs and undeads started digging, and the liches just walked through the ground using portals(removing ground, making perfect shaped tunnels, Wyrlkar and his wraights made themself ready. Wrylkar was going to bring with him a servant carying a bag of all kinds of weapons, but would start the fray using a scythe.
Vayrath used his time to get know with his troops and giving instructions and practicing with his weapons before the battle.
The morning after, the tunnels had reached a level right under the fortress and was ready to dig themself upwards and start the battle, as everyone geared themself up and Naxxarus summoned his dragon and used his mana potions he gave the orders to the stalkers "Listen now, this is what's going to happen: When we attack the fortress you will attack Kaļ and steal his shield, then find a place where you can hold your ground into you see Wrylkar, a wight wright who you are going ot give the shield. The task sounds hard, but because you are enchanted with unhuman speed & strength and the fact that you don't die that fast, and don't feel pain, it should be a piece of cake." Naxxarus heard the "yes master" before breaking the contact with the stalkers. Naxxarus looked at the fortress and couldn't help but feel that there was something...or someone waiting for him up there.
OOC: Back to you Enm. Dag and Winter, if there is something you like to du while the night passes, please post the actions. Also enmality, I hope you understand my plan with the stalkers, that they'll attack Kaļ and as he chases them he mets Wrylkar and fights him. Also, could you make the match ups the way we said in the OOC thread? That I'll attack the north wall because I feel the present of Heven(or w/e shes called) and Vayrath somehow gets in a fight with Sildaroth.

Kemdil was already in the forests when the undead were alerted. Kaļ didn't know how many ppl there were amongst the undead ranks, but Kaļ had reason to believe it was the same army as they had met already. The men where restless. They had every reason to be. Battle was imminent and the worst was the waiting. It could literally
He went to the hq where he met Helven. She was preparing herself for battle. She was a fierce, beautiful fury, now. kaļ was surprised to see her in some sort of special wizard uniform. "Greetings, paladin." she said. Her voice had a small hint of sadness. Kaļ was very tired (reminds me of myself, now) and didn't really feel like asking, but he had to make sure that everyone of his officers felt alright. (Do not mistake him for a bad leader, he is getting too old for this and had no idea whether he would insult the genie by asking)
"Are you alright, Helven?" he asked. She looked up and nodded. An awkward silence fell for a moment. Then, Helven spoke: "I have to tell you something, paladin. I know the enemy commander. He's very cunning and powerful. Beware..." "Well, if Maarn wasn't cunning or powerful, he wouldn't have gotten this far, now, would he?" Kaļ interrupted. Helven shakes her head and spoke: "no, paladin, i am talking about this commander. His name is naxxarus and... He was... He was my pupil."
Kaļ was surprised, but understood, now, why she was in such a mood. "I'm going to correct my mistakes." she said with determination. "remember that he's mine." she said with such passion. Kaļ smiled and nodded: "I wouldn't have it any other way."
He then went outside to see Ghetta. Ghetta was lying in the storage area, smoking a pipe. Kaļ looked at him. Ghetta's face was also a little sad. He would have to fight his own brethren, soon. Kaļ went to sit next to him and Ghetta passed the pipe. "I know..." Kaļ said, "I'm getting too old for this too." They both laughed and relaxed for a while. In a few hours, there would be a lot of bloodshed.

Once in the forests, Kemdil allows himself a moment to relax before the battle starts.
Just a few days ago, he was wandering around the wilderness, trying to figure out what was wrong with this world, for even though he had been in it for over a decade, most of that time had been spent in the solitude of a forest, waiting.
He never did figure out why he had decided to wait so long. Perhaps it had something to do with the dream. Of course, that would have to wait. He would have to find a way to Axeoth to protect his brethren. Afterwards, he would return to Ashan to aid Kai and his cause once again.
With those thoughts settled, Kemdil waited for the inevitable attack.
He forewarned the stalkers in his party:
"Cloak yourselves the moment you see any Undead enemies."
Now all there was left to do was wait...

The undead army had marched for awhile through the forest when they reached the edge and could see the plains that lasted around 300 meter from the forest to the fortress. Naxxarus being the center of the telepatic conversation between all the commanders and now said "The liches and myself are ready, looks like the commanders that shall attack the southern gate is ready as well" Naxxarus heard his undead orc commander say "Yes, we are ready here at south master Naxxarus" Naxxarus looked behind him at the troops behind him and saw a zombie minotaur that smelled on a tree "What is it?" Naxxarus said the mintaur zombie answered "The tree stinks" Naxxarus rolled his eyes and said "So just leave it we got more importan things to do!" the minotaur zombie turned his back to the tree and said something about "smelled like elf blood" but Naxxarus didn't care and heard Marlaks voice in his head "Northrend troops ready, and so is the dwarven troops" and Naxxarus gave the announcment to the others. "Flying troops ready" Vayrath said and Naxxarus repeated it, "Ready when you guys are" Moltana said and Naxxarus then said "Seems like all are ready except stalkers and Wrylkar." Naxxarus then heard the stalkers say "We are right beside Kaļ who stands in the middle of the fortress and got four knights besides him." Naxxarus nodded and said "Stalkers are ready, liches, whatever you do don't shoot magic in the middle of the fortress." Naxxarus then heard Wrylkar "No one attack before I say so!" Naxxarus just said "Yes, yes, we will not attack before you order so Wrylkar."
During the waiting time for Wrylkar, Naxxarus casted a final spell on himself and though his private though "If we lose this battle I will atleast not die."
Around three minutes passed before Wrylkar said "All underground troops are ready, we start digging upwards...NOW!" Naxxarus didn't hasitaite with the order "ATTACK!!!" An order he even screamed high. Naxxarus' avatar of darkness took to wings and so did Vayrath, the bone dragon he rode, and all other troops who could fly. The ghost dived downwards against the fortress, Marlak ordered a charge and all ground units stormed forward against the fortress. The siege machines got rolled out onto the plains and started firing at the fortress, Naxxarus and the liches, who rided gryphons, started fireing magic down on the fortress, their magic got answered by enemy casters and archers, but it was nothing more then Naxxarus had counted with.
The Avatar of Darkness flyed even higher and Naxxarus took his hands together, started mumbeling words, then he raised his hands and said "MALTAROR!" It took half a minute before the meteors Naxxarus had called fourth came storming down and hitted everything except the middle group. Naxxarus would have kept his magic in channeling if not his Avatar of Darkness suddenly got an bolt of blue magic right on it's wing and started falling downwards, something that made Naxxarus lose consentration. "What the?! Someone didn't like the meteors I see." Naxxarus said before his Avatar of Darkness hitted the north wall, crumbeling a little part of it.
OOC: Only a little part on the topp got crumbled. Now back to the good guys. Kaļ remember the Stalkers have attacked you and they are effected by following:
1) Incredible Strenght
2) Incredible Speed
3) They feel no pain
4) They have harder of getting hurt.

There was chaos all around. As was common with wizard attacks. In fact, Kaļ had never witnessed such necromancer assaults. He didn't have time to think about it, though, when five dark elves appeared in front of us. More out of surprise than out of mistrust, the knights pulled their swords. The dark elves rushed at the sight of our weapons and attacked Kaļ and his guard. One immediately lashed out sir Mark's jugular. Another emptied a small crossbow in sir Edwin's chest. Sir Thomas barely deflected an attack and sir Johnson's leg was pierced. They were cold-blooded, effective and fast.
Out of reflex, Kaļ bashed his assailant with his shield. He could hear something break, but the assassin barely flinched. Thomas grabbed Johnson and ran inside the hq. Kaļ grabbed his greatsword and made a fell swoop. he hit one assailant very hard. The assasin's ribs were probably smashed and there was a big cut across his chest, but he also barely flinched. Kaļ made a turn and lashed out again, but the assasins were very agile. Kaļ continued this deadly dance, but his assailants were too fast and encroaching on him. Kaļ was forced into the hq after a while. Kaļ made a twist with his blade and made an upwards sweep. He hit an assailant again, but it only hit the face. the assailant did see his change and made a deep cut across his arm. Kaļ jumped in and, the moment he was inside, someone closed the door. Sir Thomas, thank Elrath, Kaļ thought. Kaļ had many small superficial cuts and a deep one across his right arm.
They had a small breather. Sir Johnson couldn't walk very far, so he was vulnerable. The door was barricaded, but that wouldn't stop them. Two minutes later, an axe landed on the wooden door. They would breach the door. Sir Thomas was kind enough to rip off one of his sleeves and wrap it around Kaļ's arm by that time. Johnson, luckily, had found a bow so he could at least incapacitate one enemy.
Outside, the battle raged on. The archers were shooting into the fray with special steel bolts to destroy the skeletons approaching the gate. A messenger climbed up the battlements and gave Siladroth a small parchment. Siladroth opened it, smiled and nodded towards the messenger. He closed his eyes. The air around Siladroth was vibrating... The air was getting the taste and smell of sulphur. Suddenly, a great ball of yellow-white energy was unleashed. he ball wasn't going straight towards the enemy troops, though. The ball flew over the forest and blew apart. A forestfire... Siladroth respected nature and all, but his enemies would surely be thrown in disarray. The fire spread quickly over the treetops and, already, several vampires flew up into the air to escape their worst natural enemy.
On the north side, they had already breached the gate. Del and his comrades were waiting near the walls, while Ghetta was waiting right in front of the gate. The area was going to be overrun, soon. Del and his comrades rushed in time to cut off the main assault force from the reinforcement across the gate. Del's blood got boiling and shouted: "FOR THE INQUISITION!"
n the meantime, Kul-Thzir was slowly getting impatient and got an idea. "Open the gate!" he shouted. The gatekeeper actually did it. The skeletons ran into the ranks of hybrids. "CLOSE!" shouted Kul-Thzir and slowly the gates closed again. The skeletons and vampires looked surprised. "TIME TO GET TO SUM BUTCHERIN'" Kul-Thzir screamed with delight.
On the top of the northern wall, several mages were kneeling and chanting, granting their strength to Helven. Helven was totally focused on the energy that resembled that of his students. She did not notice the forestfire nor Del's tactics nor the firebolts ramming in on the walls. She just whispered words that would send shivers down your spine.
Meanwhile, Kaļ was yelling words of prayer and encouragement when the assailants were cutting down the door.
OOC: It should be getting pretty hot around B-E-T-A, now...
Ename should decide whether the artifact activates and, winter, pls kill some commanders...

Naxxarus came to himself and stood up, the fall had been hard. Before Naxxarus knew it a soldier stormed at him and stabbed him with a sword in the shoulder "GUARGH!" Naxxarus screamed, drawed his knife and stabbed the man in the head. More soldiers was going for Naxxarus, but the avatar of darkness, still alive just not able to fly, killed them. Naxxarus had time to look around and saw the forest fire first Naxxarus was shocked then he smiled, this was perfect. Naxxarus didn't need to tell the avatar of darkness to cover him, Naxxarus runned under the summon crouched down and started saying words. This would take time.
In the northrend gate it seemed like the humans could hold their stand, but then a cavalry of death knights rode in and leading them was none other than Marlak. "FOR MASTER MAARN!!" The death knights yelled as they attacked the humans. Marlak didn't waste time on just anyone, the one he was going to get down is the one that seemed to lead them, the one who had screamed "FOR THE INQUISITION!"
Meanwhile on the southern wall Vayrath had seen the bolt and it's effect and decided that the caster was dangerous, he ordered his Bone Dragon to dive after the caster and the two other bone dragons followed. The ghosts seemed like they would soon reach the fortress, then the humans would be screwed as they would be attacked from everywhere.
At the southern gate Kul-Thzir kept the good plan going, opened and closed, opened and closed, it was working, but then they got a little more then what they asked for as two land walking salamander looking bone dragons came in the gate.
Naxxarus was done with his magic and he stood up and raised his hand saying the final words, and then the forest fire suddenly took shapes of hundreds of birds. The phoenixs took to their wings and started flying against the fortress. Then Naxxarus got hit by a eldritch arrow and fell to the ground again. As he stood up he heard a familiar voice say "You always were best at summoning magic." As Naxxarus turned to the voice origin, he got a big magic bolt right into his face and got knocked back several meters. The avatar of Darkness didn't hesitate with attacking Helven. But Helven was shielded by magic and the attack just glanced off. Naxxarus came up quickly and Helven was about to shoot a new bolt when the avatar of darkness stood in the way and shielded Naxxarus. Naxxarus then randomly made ligthning strike down over Helven. When the Avatar of Darkness stood up again, Naxxarus could see he had hitted several of the other mages, but not Helven. Naxxarus quickly fired a bolt against Helven, but got met by another bolt. Naxxarus was shocked and angry at the same time, he had though Helven was dead, but there she was still alive fighting against Maarns forces. But on the worst movement of all Wrylkar had to chose that movement to say "We are here!" And suddenly several holes came up from the ground and undead forces stormed through them. Naxxarus lost his consentration and got both bolts in his face and got shoot back to the tower.
OOC: So Del vs Marlak is on. Vayrath goes for Sildaroth. Kul-Thzir must handel the two bone dragons. And now Wrylkar and other undeads is poping up everywhere.

Kemdil looks on distraught as the canopy of the forest takes fire. Throwing subtlety to the wind, he says:
"Something's wrong. It seems like all of the undead have taken other routes."
One of the stalkers chances a guess:
"Perhaps they knew we were here?"
Kemdil frowns at the mere thought and says:
"Turn invisible! We need to reach the castle!"
No sooner than Kemdil says that, he sees that the fires are turning into Phoenixes.
"This is bad...very bad. We need to..."
He is cut off from finishing his statement as suddenly one of the undead commanders comes out of the ground. It was neither zombie nor skeleton, but worse...a Ghoul. (OOC: Pardon the gratuitous D&D reference here.  ) The mere stench of a Ghoul is enough to weaken even the strongest warriors. Surely enough, some of the Stalkers lost their concentration and turned visible again, becoming target practice for the Ghoul, who sported a uniform denoting his status in the undead army.
"Foolsss....", hissed the Ghoul commander. "We will defeat you and claim the Artifact for our own!!"
Kemdil then sets loose an arrow, wounding the Ghoul in the arm. The Ghoul then held its breath and unleashed it, knocking out several of the Stalkers. Even Kemdil was having trouble staying conscious as the rancid stench, smelling like decomposed bodies, hit him squarely in the face.
The Stalkers who could still move lunged at the Ghoul, landing several vicious slashes with their claw-like weapons. The Ghoul threw off all of his assailants, even though he definitely looked worse off now that he had been attacked.
The Ghoul makes to open its mouth again, just in time to see Kemdil chanting something. He then decides to chortle Kemdil for a bit, which turned out to be a fatal choice. As the Ghoul moves in for the kill, the Ranger casts Deep Freeze on the Ghoul, freezing it in place and causing its lead leg (the right one) to snap off from the pressure of walking.
"Son of a [censored]!", manages to blurt out the ghoulish commander before an Ice Bolt by Kemdil ends his "unlife".
"Let's go!", motioned Kemdil to the remaining stalkers.
They had suffered few casualties. After all, stalkers are bred tough. Invisibility can and will fail at the worst of times, so they have to be able to take hits as well.
Kemdil and the stalkers race into the castle grounds, just in time to help out some of the half-orc troops that are fighting skeleton warriors. The stalkers start fighting the skeleton warriors while Kemdil tries to find Kai.

Meanwhile, on far-away Axeoth, the Elven Mage Council senses and sees the battle on Ashan.
"The rebels - and the elf - will die. We cannot wait for him to come to us to ask our aid. We must send it to him immediately," suggests Councilman Shasanna.
"Are you certain? The magical cost of such a course of action would be immense," counters Councilwoman Sannshara.
"Yes. We must do it. All who support me say aye," responds Shasanna.
The other 11 councilors say "aye" in turn.
A battle force composed of ships carrying elven infantry, as well as elvish dragonriders flying overhead, sets out for Ashan just an hour later.
They go to aid Kemdil, their chosen Speaker for Axeoth on Ashan (even if he does not know it).
They go to crush Maarn, their eternal hated enemy.
OoC: And that's my big plot twist.

OOC: WinterFate, does your post mean your fighting the bone dragons now?
IC: Naxxarus felt pain, there were nothing but pain. For a breif movement Naxxarus felt a feeling he had not felt for generations. For a slight movement Naxxarus was on the other side and the avatar of darkness and the phoenixes vanished.
Outside the flames from the phoenixes fell down on the undead army and created chaos among the undeads. The undeads soldiers was burning, this unexpected attack burnt undeads to ashes and made commanders lose focus and wonder what happened.
Naxxarus was only on the dead side for a brief movement, but it was not because of his own magic. Maarn seemed to have his hand over Naxxarus. Naxxarus took a look around and saw his bones and cloths lieing around the little room, drenched in mana potions. Naxxarus had his head and neck connected to a small part of the chest, but rest was scattered across the room, which seemed to contain bootles. Naxxarus heard quick footsteps and started playing dead. When the footsteps arrived, Several soldiers and Helven stood over Naxxarus. Helven looked at Naxxarus' remains and said "Seems like you grown rusty getting done in by so little Naxxarus. At the academy you didn't listen to us enough and in your undead state you didn't listen enough to Kirandar. It's to bad you had to meet your end like this, we could have used a fine wizard as yourself." After her little preaching Helven turned around and got back to battle with the soldiers.
Naxxarus was left behind to figure out how to resamble himself, he heard a voice in his head say "Pull yourself together!" Naxxarus looked up at the image of Maarn and said "Haha, very funny master." Maarn didn't respond, he just waved his hand and the pieces of Naxxarus gathered and Naxxarus was able to stand up again. Naxxarus felt the mana potion getting drawn into his bones and suddenly felt his magical power get atleast doubled. He turned around to thank Maarn, but Maarn was no longer there. Naxxaurs looked around in disbelief "Am I halusinating?" Naxxarus didn't have time to wait for the answer, he had to get back to the battlefield.
Outside everything was in a complete chaos! The forces outside the walls was confused over what had happened with the phoenixes, were they just a trick from the enemy. Being smart the humans used this confusion to pinn down several of the forces with magic and arrows.
On the inside of the walls there was also complete chaos, seing that and knowing they needed to take care of it Helven had already started to cast a spell using her apprentices magical power. She raised her hand and said a word and thus there came a barrier over the fortres. If it was by covincidence or that Helven had seen the ghosts, the barrier came up right on time for the ghosts to hit it and get destoried, Vayrath was lucky enough to stop right before he hit the barrier, but one of his bone dragons were not. Vayrath looked over the situation and after getting a rain of arrows against him he shouted "Fall, back, we are going for a tactical retreat for now!" the flying undead forces started to back away from the barrier and it seemed like the ground forces did it as well. Now it looked like the human forces started moving in to take care of the undeads within the barrier.
Naxxarus couldn't help but to look at the barrier, so fasinating magic. If anything on the outside tried to touch it they got cooked, but from the inside anything could walk right out, and the archers used this to shoot on the retreating undeads at the outside. "I hate to say it, but I think we might lose this battle" Naxxarus said before he took himself to it. Naxxarus looked around in the base. His eyes searched for three things, Wrylkar, his stalkers and Kaļ with the artifact. Naxxarus then saw Wrylkar on his way against a building, where the stalkers were tring to cut their way in. "I can't let Wrylkar get to the artifact before I do!" Naxxarus said frustrated, he stormed out of the shelter and safthy of the tower, shoot several of the human soldiers with lightning from his fingertips. Helven had noticed him and stared with disbelief at him, lucky for him she couldn't do a thing while holding the barrier and Naxxarus could see the magic shield around her and most of her apprentices. He wish he could just kill her and get over with it but he had more important things to do. Naxxarus jumped down from the wall after casting feather fall on himself and kept on shooting lightning bolts at the human forces cuting his way to the building. The artifact, he had to get to the artifact before Wrylkar, he just had to. Naxxarus kept going against the artifact, hoping he would reach it first.
OOC: Well, somethings one must do to even it up. DagothGares I hope you forgive me for controling your officer. Also I would like you to post soon and decide who reached the building your in first.

OOC: thx, B-E-T-A, although, a bit unnecessary
BIC: Helven was furious and didn't understand how it was possible, but she didn't have time to ponder this over for too long. She directed all her energy, along with some apprentices, at the energy shield.
Kaļ was hiding inside the house. The door was almost breached. Suddenly, Johnson fell down and Sir Thomas was trying to catch his breath. There was a vile presence, here. Suddenly, the door blew open, but the stalkers were all dead. In the opening there was a wight, ready to rip Kaļ apart. Suddenly, the artifact came to life. Finally, some power... Power beyond measure, Kaļ thought. Kaļ rushed towards the wight and his greatsword traversed the wights figure at incredible speed.
But his greatsword seemed to cleave through air. the wight stretched out his arm and broke the spell by the artifact. The wight raised his scythe, ready to decapitate kaļ. Kaļ barely dodged the blow and was preparing to put up a fight.
Kul-Thzir saw the dragon enter. "w00t!!! Time to get to some real killin', boys!" he shouted and the orcs encircled the dragon, harassing and taunting the creature. The dragon made a quick turn, while knocking several troops with his tail, and ran towards Kul-Thzir. "Bring it on..." Kul-Thzir thought. He prepared to dodge and grab the beast's head, but... THE DAMN BEAST WAS GOING TO JUMP ON HIM! Off, course! Why would the creature fight like a normal predator? Kul-Thzir was almost crushed when the beast landed his feet. He was still trapped between the legs of the skeletal monstrosity. But... Off course! Kul-Thzir grinned and he grabbed his slammer. He punched a hole through the beast's ribs and then climbed in the empty creature.
Siladroth was focusing his strength at banishing the phoenixes and the fire that Naxxarus so easily manipulated. For a moment, he thought he saw an old comrade-in-arms, but there was no time for it, now.
The dragon's magic essence took a destructive path since it was already pierced. It had killed around 20 orcs when it finally collapsed. Kul-Thzir had severed the spinal chord while inside.
He came out, roaring triumphantly. He looked at the gates. "YOU COWARDLY ***********!!!" he shouted at the fleeing undead and went to the northern wall, hoping to find some easy prey to slaughter.
Del was hit by the vampiric knight's horse. He couldn't budge his shield arm. The vampire looked bloodthirsty and was likely going to kill him, but, then, the horn blew. The sign to retreat was given and he had to answer. He went to sit near the wall, mending his arm which was probably broken or badly bruised.
Meanwhile, kaļ was fighting a losing fight against Wrylkar...
Out of nowhere, an arrow whistled through the air and knocked the wight away. Kaļ was lucky to be alive. Kemdil?

OOC: @B-E-T-A: Well, I hadn't really thought about the dragons, to be honest.
Since Dagoth already wrote me in, I might as well keep going from there. 
IC: Wrylkar turned and saw Kemdil. Obviously, he did not know who this ranger was. In fact, all he could think about was how strange he looked compared to the Irollan Elves of Ashan.
"It's going to take more than one pesky arrow to finish me.", spat the Wraith as he extricated the arrow from his shoulder.
"Oh I know.", retorted Kemdil, with a grin.
He had learned a trick or two in the decade he had been in Ashan, and Force Arrows were one of them.
Wrylkar advanced on Kemdil, forgetting Kai for a moment. As he was about to lift his scythe again, a swoosh sound was heard...
Wrylkar was knocked back forcefully by yet another Force Arrow, this one breaking his shoulder.
However, that arrow did not come from Kemdil's bow.
Wrylkar looked to his left for one second, past the castle grounds into the wilderness, and couldn't believe his eyes. It appeared to the heroes that Wrylkar was...scared.
"Sylvan...renegades?! No! This can't be!"
Thus, the great Wrylkar met his end by way of Force Arrows. The arrows blotted out the sky and Wrylkar barely had time to say an expletive before he was shot down. There were about 10 Arcane Archers in the group, and one had a green robe that made Kemdil jump with a start. He had a feeling he knew who they were. As the Archers scaled the wall, he confirmed his suspicions.
"Ilia!", exclaimed Kemdil happily.
The green robed archer pulled back his hood and revealed that he was in fact a she. A green-eyed elven archer to be precise.
"Long time no see.", answered Ilia back with a smile. "Of course, this isn't the time for pleasantries."
Kemdil nodded in agreement as they all noticed the battle momentum was shifting in their favor. They, who dared defy Maarn. They, who dared think they could win...
OOC: Creepy end of post, eh?
And, there's our Sylvan backup, for now. I don't want the Axeothians to arrive yet, since I have no idea where they'd be arriving from!
I'll let enamelity work that out.

Suddenly, a warhost of elven warriors and archers arrive from the forest into which the undead are retreating, accompanied by great swooping dragons and their riders that swoop down from the sky. One of the dragons, ridden by the fully armored elven general, lands near Kemdil. "It seems we're not exactly needed now, eh?"

Kemdil looks at the elven general and smiles, replying:
"No, not really."
His smile dies from his face when he realizes who has just come to their rescue. He gasps as the elven general smiles, asking:
"What is the matter?"
Kemdil feels a mix of elation and surprise as he figures out that these are Axeothian Elves. He then manages to utter out:
"You're all from...Axeoth..."
To which the general answered:
"Yes, we are. And, so are you. Erathian-born of Vori descent."
Kemdil is completely in shock. It is not fear that keeps him from continuing, but a sense of awe.
The Axeothian forces are cleaning out the castle of any stragglers while the elven general speaks to Kemdil:
"You see young one, that dream you had was not a coincidence. The maiden you saw in that dream is a High Priestess. You may see her soon enough..."
The general trails off and continues:
"You are to be our Speaker, Kemdil."
Kemdil just gazes at the general, confused. Ilia then decides to walk up next to Kemdil and stares at the general saying, bluntly:
"Who are you?"
The general smirks, taking a good look at Ilia, and replies:
"I am you, as you are I."
Ilia stares at the general, dumb-founded, as the general continues:
"You are of the Irolla tribe, are you not?"
Ilia's jaw drops as she looks at Kemdil and then back at the general. She speaks:
"You can't be...Axeothian?"
The general nods and Ilia then speaks to Kemdil:
"Your people...they've come to help you."
Kemdil blushes at the thought and then replies:
"I would guess so..."
The general then comments on Ilia's last statement:
"His people, as you call them, are also your people, child. We are all of the same bloodline, however distant our actual relations may be."
The other Arcane Archers walk up to Ilia, as she remains silent.
Kemdil then speaks to the general:
"So, what is this about being a Speaker?"

Naxxarus looked at things around him "No...you came a little fast now humm??" Naxxarus said to the elf general. Naxxarus quickly cast a spell which reverted time and alternate it so the elfs would use more time on getting to Ashan.(OOC: Some humour we got to have )
Back to the present? Past? Wrylkar had just been defeated by the company of Arcane Rangers and Kemdil just greeted the elven woman when the company got hit by a fireball. 6 of the elfs got thrown up in the air and died instantly the 3 others got kncocked away and was burning while the woman just got knocked on the ground.
"WHAT THE HECK?!" Naxxarus heard someone say and then he heard a familiar elf voice say "Ohh great, it's Naxxaran." Naxxarus looked at Kemdil and said "It's Naxxarus, anyway, missed me?" Naxxarus didn't wait for the answer before he took his hand to the ground and the earth around them started to shake and many clefts got opened up around them, making soldiers rund and fall down. The underground tunnels crumbeled because of the earthquake, but the damage done was sure worth it. The base turned into a earthquake. Kaļ got separeted from the rest and had no way to get anywhere seing as he would have to jump 2,5 meter to get somewhere. Kemdil and the elven woman was also separeted from the rest, and had the corpse of Wrylkar on the same plato as themselves. Naxxarus was also on his own platoo.
Somewhere else Helven had to keep the barrier up, suddenly the wall under Helven crumbeled because of the earthquake and Helven fell, losing her consentration and then the barrier disappeared.
Out on the fields, the undead commanders turned and saw that the barrier went down and saw the crumbelings of the walls. Marlak just said "Naxxarus!" and then he blew the horn of attack. The undeads were confused and some of them shouted "RETREAT OR ATTACK?! MAKE UP YOUR MINDS!" But the undeads didn't waste time before turning around and charging against the fortres once again. If they weren't undeads, the dwarfs running besides them would have shown how tough they are and that they are really good at long runs, and not on short distanse as some believe(OOC: Referance to LotR, in the book Gimli is a long distant runner, in the movie his short distant).
Sildaroth saw that the wall under him was gonna crumble, he jumped to the left to dodge it and made it just before the wall under him crumbled. He then figured it would be best to get down on the ground, but unfortunallty for him, the wall infront of him crumbeled as well. He was trapped.
Back to Naxxarus, Kaļ and Kemdil, they heard the horn blow and Naxxarus said "FINALLY! THEY SEEM TO GET IT!" Naxxarus stopped channeling the spell and stood up again. Naxxarus looked at Wrylkar and said "You disappoint me Wrylkar, I though you would last a bit longer then this." Naxxarus snipped his fingers and two things happened. One; Wrylkar came back to life and said "You'll pay for that elf!" Kemdil and the elven woman got attacked. Two; There became firewalls around Kemdil and Kaļs platoo.
Naxxarus looked at Wrylkar who assaulted Kemdil, then he looked at Kaļ and smiled "You got two choises" Naxxarus jumped down to Kaļs platoo "One; give me the artifact in your shield. Two; Die!"

OOC: easy
BIC: Kaļ grabbed his shield. The excruciating pain that filled his entire body was taking his toll. The stalkers must have used poison-covered weapons. Kaļ smiled. "Yes, i see your point." he said. Then, Kaļ clenched the shield to his chest. "FOR ELRATH!", he shouted and all the pain in his body vanished. It was like magic was actually flowing through his veins. Light radiated from the paladin's body. Kaļ grabbed his greatsword and stepped aggressively towards Naxxarus.
Kul-Thzir was having a blast. The boyz had taken heavy nets to drag down the other dragon and they dislocated critical joints and the dragon fell apart. Then, the elf passed by. Kul-Thzir made a small comment: "Hmmm, I love the smell of death in the morning." Kemdil reacted with a quick greeting and several cloaked elves followed. 'Bunch of weirdos', Kul-Thzir thought. Then, the earthquakes. Brilliant, this was going to be the greatest battle he ever fought. Kul-Thzir roared and charged the lines.
Del was sitting near the wall. His arm was broken. He still could wield his sword, but this only gave him an edge against skellies. Damnit!, he thought.
Helven woke up in the rubble. She was in the opening inside one of the walls. Del had uncovered most of the rubble on top her. Which was quite noble, considering his arm. Helven was almost sinking to a panick attack. But Del was still clear-minded. "We oughta help the chief and I gotta lead the troops..." He said. Helven nodded and stood up. She closed her eyes and mumbled a few words of redemption. Praise Elrath, Del could use his shield arm, again!
Helven waved him goodbye and ran towards the central plaza.
Del prepared his longsword and rushed towards the field, shouting orders and encouragements. He was going to seek the dread knight who broke his arm in the first place!
Siladroth woke up. He saw his old companion. "Are we dead, comrade?" Siladroth smiled. "You are..." the shadowy figure said and pulled his knife. Siladroth saw just in time that his life was threatened and pushed Vayrath away with a psi-blast. Siladroth stood up and looked Vayrath in the eye. "Don't worry, brother, I'll grant you peace." he said.
Meanwhile, Kul-Thzir wallowed in the slaughter. "THIS IS LIFE!" he shouted, while decapitating his third vampire.
Ghetta... Well... They say that he cried when he saw his entire defense system was annihalated. But he got over it after a few minutes and resumed leadership over the dwarves. They were slightly forced to make a slow retreat. The undead were just massive and overwhelming. If Helven and the dark elves hadn't taken out most air units, we would have been dead already.
Meanwhile, Kaļ rushed towards Naxxarus.
OOC: the artifact didn't heal me. It just drains me of nearly all my energy so that I can still fight. If Wrylkar would suddenly touch me, again, the magic would be broken... Damn...

Kemdil looks at one very angry Wrylkar as said Wraith raises its hand...that starts glowing blue. Ilia has just enough time to push Kemdil out of the way to take the Harm Touch. The sheer negative energy of the attack knocked her out cold, on the brink of death.
Kemdil was filled with a rage he had not felt in a long time. Raising his bow, he readied an arrow and shot it out at the Wraith, who was moving in to finish off Ilia. Wrylkar was blown back, all the way to Naxxarus. Unfortunately for Kemdil and luckily for Wrylkar, his Force Arrows carried all of the force and none of the impact of an Arcane Archer's Force Arrow. So, as Wrylkar landed forcefully next to Naxxarus, the greatest injury he had suffered was a broken shoulder...again.
Kemdil got a strange sense of deja vu as the arrow broke the Wraith's shoulder, but thought nothing more of it. There was a battle to fight. But first, he went to check on Ilia. She was alive, but just barely. She looked at Kemdil and said, weakly:
"Don't worry about me...go help the others. Not the first time I've been struck by a Harm Touch."
She winks as she falls unconscious again.
Kemdil then noticed Kai charging towards Naxxarus. Kemdil shot some Ice Bolts in Naxxarus' direction to try to divide his focus...
OOC: Back to you guys.

Naxxarus looked at Kaļ "Very well then, to tell the truth I didn't think you would chose to surrender. But to think you would chose a slow and painful death instead of a swift and painless one is unbelieveable, I hope your well aware that you keep all your memories in your undead life." Kaļ's sword was about to cleave Naxxarus skull in two when a scythe blocked his sword. Before Kaļ could turn around and look, Wrylkar grabbed his neck and Naxxarus felt somekind of magic break. Naxxarus then felt a strange cold feeling and turned left, just in time to see two ice bolts hitting his feets. Naxxarus looked at his feet then he looked at Kemdil the ranger and before Naxxarus could say anything Kemdil said "And don't you dare say "You'll pay for that!"" Naxxarus took a deep breath and then when he breathed out, he breathed falmes! Kemdil almost didn't have time to react and barely dodged it, but some of his flames took fire. The dragon breath spell generated so much heat that the ice that bound Naxxarus feet to the ground melted. Naxxarus looked at Kaļ who were down on the ground gasping for air and Wrylkar stood over him. Naxxarus crouched down to the shield and was about to take it, but the movement he touched the shield, some strange light came from it and Wrylkar and Naxxaurs got knocked back from Kaļ giving him some breathing room.
Meanwhile, Vayrath got up just in time to see Sildaroth cast a fireball at him. Using his vampire abilities, Vayrath became a bat and flew behind Sildaroth then returned to his original shape and gave Sildaroth a cut on the back. Sildaroth fell down and had some problems breathing then Vayrath said "Sorry my old friend, but you will have to join me." But Vayrath hesitated to kill Sildaroth, and because of that Sildaroth managed to turn around and fire a fireball on Vayrath knocking Vayrath down and giving him a hard time breathing. Both fighters was lieing down on the ground trying their best to breath.
OOC: Now it's your turn again.

Kaļ passed out. This ordeal was too much, just too much without the artifact. Wrylkar immediately lashed out his scythe at Kaļ when he saw his guard was down. He sliced nothing but thin air when his strike landed. Naxxarus, winter, Wrylkar and the cloaked woman looked stunned. "Not fair, wight." A clear voice sounded. It was Helven. She had made it back in time to save Kaļ. She didn't give her enemies a lot of time, though. She immediately sent blasts of pure eldritch energy towards Wrylkar.
Siladroth gasped for air. "You know, brother, I was afraid of death, but knowing your fate, I see that there are worse fates imaginable." He stood up. Vayrath also got up. Vayrath drew his longsword and prepared a rush. Siladroth amassed all of his energy. This was the critical moment.
Kul-Thzir understood, now, why some people don't like to fight. He killed over four dozens of skeletons and was getting pretty tired, by now. "CLOSE THE GATES!", he shouted. His boyz could use a breather. the gates were closed and they would soon be battered down. The more resilient boyz tried to find means to barricade the gate. Ironically, the piles of the dead were proving to be the best barricade, after all. Kul-Thzir was rested in ten minutes of respite and was ready to charge into the fray.
Ghetta and Del were holding very nicely, but they needed help. They were getting swamped. Luckily, the piles of bodies from both undead, humans and dwarves. This battle was brutal, fierce and the casualties would maybe just cripple our forces.
Meanwhile, Siladroth and Helven were draining their energies to give the greatest effort they'll ever make in their lives.

Naxxarus clapped his hands "So dramatic, so magnicisent, so plain stupid I can't believe you did it." he told Helven before she fired a bolt of magic against him. as the bolt seemely hit Naxxarus and exploded, Naxxarus was nowhere to be found.
Outside the walls on the northside, Ordom had called for his greatest siege invension ever, the thing he called "the cannon"(Yeah you know what I'm talking about). He had ten of those things to be rolled out on the plain and fire on the walls. He had another ten coming from the south.
Vayrath hack and slashed at Sildaroth, who had putted up a shield around himself while mumbeling words to put his old friend at peace. Vayrath stopped for a movement and laughed "Ohh, why do you struggle so much brother? Join me, it's actually not that bad to be undead, you don't understand anything before you reach the other side!" As Vayrath waited for an answer Sildaroth holded the mumbeling for a second and answered.
Marlak was starting to become quite pissed, but he would not enter the fortress before the cannons were finnished.
Wrylkar looked around searching for Kaļ, but seing as he were nowhere to be found Wrylkar decided to search...other places, and disappeared in black smoke. Naxxarus looked at the invisible Wrylkar from behind Helven and Kemdil before he decided to cast an invisibility spell on himself.
