"I'll go with Olison." Seyena said, preparing to take to the skies, following Olison.

[IronyOwl]

: "Oh, I forgot to ask. Chris, what kind of a person is this Lady Prixima?"

[Haspen]

@Olison&Seyena:

Olison got to the Fortress in a minute or less. Corpses of wyverns and pegasi could be seen in the moat, at least few of them, with some unfortunate, either mangled or drowned riders floating in the water as well. The drawbridge was down albeit the main gate was tightly shut.

A ballista bolt flew past Seyena. It seems that the soldiers already had the defenses ready - or at least the enemy archers seized the siege weapons on the towers.

[CrimsonEon]

: "Seyena, get down!"
Olison remained at the perimeter of the forest as he looked onto the bloody scene.
: "By the gods. They've got the entire place locked up. Question is, are they ours or theirs?"
Olison squinted his eyes as he attempted to Identify the dead riders, along with any soldiers he might be able to see manning the defenses.

[Praefectus Screptum]

"Looks like we will be facing another challenge after all.."

[Haspen]

@Olison:

The wyvern and pegasi raiders whose corpses were floating in moat had all Berebian armor, or the variations thereof from different duchies there. One of the wyverns must've slammed against the sewer grate, smashing it open.

Olison could see Berebian and Menelean armors on top of the walls. In few places, they were fighting against each other. The only Menelean soldiers that were seemingly friendly with Berebians wore the armors of Rosecross county, far to the east.

Chris thought about Riven's question.

"Harsh, but mostly honest. She pays well and on time, tends to treat people as tools but takes care of them. You know the type, right?"

[CrimsonEon]

: "Melenean and Berebian soldiers, both occupying the fortress... What in the hells is happening here?"
Olison shouted upwards to Seyena.
: "Seyena! Get back to the others! Fill them in, I'll keep watch here."

[freeformschooler]

: "Alright. Anyone willing: I'm heading out."

With that, Charlotte slowly made her way deep into the Kesselring forest. Miles away, in a mountainous clearing under the star-lit sky, a stone shrine holding the Tiger's Eye awaited. It would a long journey on foot...

[SeriousConcentrate]

"I'm going to go ahead. I have... an alternate entrance into the fortress. I need to make sure it's still secure."

He patted Ami on the shoulder and dismounted.

"Stay here and take care of yourself. All of you."

With that, Chris disappeared into the nearby shadows and started running ahead to a different side of the castle, to find his way in...

[IronyOwl]

"Harsh, but mostly honest. She pays well and on time, tends to treat people as tools but takes care of them. You know the type, right?"

: "Oh, so she sounds like a standard leader, then."

: "Good luck."

Riven turned to Ami.

: "Hello, I'm Riven. I don't think we've properly met, but I've heard about you from Chris. He speaks very highly of you."

[Blade Master Model 42]

"Stay here and take care of yourself. All of you."

"Forget that. Let's hit them before they know what's going on."

Proceed to the castle. Time for a blitzkrieg approach!

[Haspen]

@Chris&Valor:

Christopher - with Valor following closely - got to the only part of the fortress that wasn't protected by the moat, but a sharp cliff and field of thick bushes, thorns and trees.

The backdoor was still there, and when he peeked in, it smelled of stale water, indicating it was knee-deep flooded as always. There were absolutely no voices coming from there. It might be different in the storerooms that the tunnel is connected to, though.

[Gamerboy4life]

: "Seyena! Get back to the others! Fill them in, I'll keep watch here."

Seyena was just as confused as Olison, she had to make a steep dive to avoid that bolt, and she responded to him with a somewhat panicked tone.

"I will, but be careful!" She quickly turned her pegasus around, heading for the group- namely Gregor- to tell them of the upcoming clusterfuck battle.

[Sirus]

Gregor waited (im)patiently for the scouts' return, pacing back and forth with butterflies churning in his gut.
