"HAHAHAHA"

Madara made no attempt in supressing his laughter. Everything was going exactly as planned.
Dozens of destroyed buildings, the whole city a ruin, and no wood to repair them. YSeah not even enough wood to build the scaffolding to repair them. And now, their ships were gone. And no wood to build new ships.
With that, the Valtan industry was completely halted, in a time of need. The fire's already severly reduced the food supplies, and now with no ships to go out and catch more, bellies would be getting emptyer and emptyer.
This was a siege, and the Tengu were winning.
Not celebrating the victory in yet another battle, Madara already went on with the next steps. It was time to slowly grind them into the ground.
His first measure was to send s crow to Murakami, sending them to take the ship and gather reinforcements from the main island.
The second step was to scatter his army all around the land that was soon to be his only, sending them out hunting. The land was sparce, but not devoid of prey. All the Tengu had to do was drive away any animals groups within hunting range of Zarinth, while at the same time restocking their own supply. The Tengu would patrol the land, and carefully take care of any hunter group that was brave enough to go out and hunt during a siege.
His last step, was to send one single messenger towards Zarinth, with a paper tied to a small rock. He would drop it into the castles courtyard.
The paper, would contain the following message:

"What is it ? Getting hungry ? Getting tired of sleeping in makeshift huts ? getting tired of being bombared every second day ? Tired of trying to defend yourself from an enemy you simply cannot beat ?

Swallow your pride already, foolish dog !

As the ruler of your people, it is your DUTY to ensure they survive. How long will you be able to keep that up ? Living from your reserves of salted and smoked fish, not being able to catch enough new ones to feed your civilians ?
How long will THEY be able to keep it up ?
Losing all their belongings, going to bed hungry, fearing their live might soon be ended violently ?

If you are willing to negotiate your defeat, go out 2 miles into the plains, far away from any cover and lite a small fire, the smoke will be my signal to meet you. If you bring any guards or weapons, or if there is even the slitest hint of a trap, we will not land to test it. In that case, there will be no negotiations."

((the ship moves back to mahoyiga and will bring reinforcements next turn

Mohayiga+harbour: city : 126
Eientei: village: town : 98
Murakami: hamlet : 45
Makai : village : 57
Divine shrine : cloister : 15
Madara's army: 62 men in arms, 38 untrained soldiers, 19 trained soldiers, 5 elite soldiers, 3 injured (not added to the count)

since you joined too late, lets say you can start with a much bigger starting group to help you keep up, lets say, 70 people divided amongst 2 settlements
they can be "natives" as opposed to the civs who were just teleported there by their gods we will just pretend no one noticed them yet

((Akroma, I already had put my symbol, its the infinity thingy in the desert... sorry all i thought it was a lake, thanks for clearing up... and all this time I was wondering 'what desert?' when i was reading posts...))
((I'm gona change a bit the story, I'm gona say I start with a bit more settlers like Akroma said, say 50 divided in 2 hamlets, and that I'm native... ignore my previous post I'll start anew, I'll delete the other post))

As ages pass, come and go, and as the sun sets, and rises again, the land shifts and reshapes. Mother Nature and Father Time make and remake this world, following a new pattern at every time...
But throughout the eons that have come to pass on this nameless land, one entity has never changed. Under the watchful gaze of Lord Poltifar the Supreme Alchemist, a people used to live here since the Creation. These people have risen and fallen, united and seperated. These ancient people have long since dissapeared, leaving behind their servants, ounce under their control, now freed to follow their own will... These automatons have layed dormant for many, many millenia, but now reawaken, summoned from their sleep by the ounce-mortal Poltifar, who ascended to the Pantheon at the end of the ancient's reign... They are weakened, damaged, and alone, but through guiddance of their God and their own will, through the joining of Order and Chaos, they shall one day again prosper as their creators prospered before them...
========================================================================
Orion Primus, great leader of the Runes of Enlightenment, of the Great Returnto Power, the race of Al'Qwat, sat at his desk. He was trying to remember, remember... what? What was there before their great slumber? He had holes in his memory, holes spanning centuries, leaving almost nothing before the Fall of the Great Empire. All he knew, is that it was his duty to rebuild the Empire. Looking out of the window, he saw the base of one of the towers barely starting to be built. Contemplating wether he could rebuild with only 50 functional Golems remaining, most of them inferior Clay Golems, and divided into two settlements, he summoned his Chief Digger to order the secondary settlement to dig deep into the mountains for ore and gems needed to build more workers... He doubted he would find too many minerals in the nearby desert.
========================================================================
The Main settlement: Alchemia: Population: 30
(the one in middle of desert, btw its on a low hill tile not deset tile)
- 1 Platinum Golem decorated with bands of Gold and implanted with a Star Ruby in hist chest and inscribed with many glowing runes throughout his body (Orion Primus, Guardian of the Seals of the Ancients, my hero)
- 1 Large Steel Golem master miner (Ferrum Animus, Chief of Diggers)
- 3 Iron Golem miners
- 20 Clay Golems
- 5 Copper Golem engineers

The Secondary settlement: Terra: Population: 20
(the one west of desert)
- 8 Iron Golem miners
- 8 Clay Golems
- 4 Copper Golem engineers

Armok:
Most of my invented races are quite sureal in nature. The zefies were origionally just a fluff ball with glowing eyes. Exactly how Yankee holds his swords is still unknown. The stubby limbs solution is probably a good idea. Note that Felu isn't actually a zefie. Felu is a blob, imagine him as a clear looking ditto I guess. Yankee, Gouzzi, and Felu do come from a high-tech society. Felu would probably reckonize titanium and aluminum. Is the magnesium arrowhead fairly large? If it looks larger than normal, Felu would probably assume that it was high explosive. Note that things tend to become goofy around Felu.

Felu was about to tell another zefie to throw more water, but then he had a thought. 'What if this thingy is like a drake spirit? (Creatures that Felu knows that are living flames) Dousing them with water might hurt them. He doesn't seem to be worried about the flames. Wait a second, look at that arrow.'
Felu issued his orders and gently put down his great sword, "ULP. Zefies, carefully put down your weapons, I'm not sure what that arrow does. You there, make good speed and get Yankee over here ASAP! He speaks more than one and half languages. Now, what should we do about our 'friend' here."
Felu ordered camp to be made. the zefies carefully startd unpacking their belongings. The !!Elf!! eventually moved off a distance and created a very cool looking green glass dweling. Felu eventually made his way over their, and tried to explain that Yankee was coming soon. Using an X in the dirt and a small house made of pebles, Felu beleived that the !!elf!! got the idea that this was a new settlement.
Felu then realized that the settlement needed a name. "I'll call this place, Allyaid."

The messenger zefies moved off at a fast jog going east. After several days of running, he ran into the engineer group, having just finished their next road. After a quick conference, it was decided that the messenger would accompany one of the engineers on two of the newly trained riding warthogs. The rest of group would move over to Felu's settlement. The two groups sepperated.

The messenger made it to Hopegem, just as Yankee was geting ready to leave. He made his report, "There's some wierd creature where you told Felu to go. It doesn't speak our common, and Felu is asking you to come right away, Sir."

Yankee left imeditally.

Gouzzi looked out the window of the small wooden tower that had been erected in Hopegem. He needed stone! The capital grew at an alarming rate, it now had a full 100 zefies. How could he plan propper zoning if he didn't have any stone for the main walls? Gouzzi resigned to have any new zefies settle slightly ouside the city limits. The defensive problems would increase exponentially. And they still didn't have enough metal for a decent sized armored army. "Sigh, an ouzzi's work is never done."

Hopegem gros another level. Yankee is on the newly construceted road. Digging is begining in Allyaid. The elf is being carefully watched, mostly to make sure that he doesn't wander off.

Fenneth looked over at Poltifar and smiled.  "Always good to have another player in the game.  Things have gotten far too serious; we could use some fresh meat."  He laughed at his own joke.  "Kidding, of course.  Pull up a chair, make yourself at home, and try some of this 'Irish Whiskey' that the elves at the pub over there made, it's quite good."

((Not really much to say about this turn.  Work on the temple continues, the migrant group moves west, the recovery team moves east, and Wijnfontein advances to a city.  If I have some brilliant idea, I'll edit this post, but for now, that's it for me.

Quick question, Heph, what would the recovery team be recovering?  When Silis and his men escaped from the Giants, they left all non-necessary items behind.  I'm assuming this will be mainly trinkets and gadgets which, while useful, are not needed to simply survive.  Any ideas on what the ambassador would have taken?))

"This is certainly unusual." said Shel looking at the strange object the operators had dug out. "Looks very much like an iron arm. So you say you found it down there ?"

"That is right, Lieutenant Commander. And it seems there are a few other 'limbs' down there. We think it may have been a tomb some time ago." said the Head Engineer.

"An interesting discovery. Please dig elsewhere, as far away as possible from the site of this discovery."

"Of course. I will leave now."

Shel noticed the look of relief in the engineer's eyes. It was obvious that no one would want to dig around a tomb, especially that of a civilisation they knew nothing about. Now he had to ask for archaeologists from the Mindpillar in Shesh to continue the excavation down there.

===============================================================================

The city of Shesh was in an uproar. At least something that would be considered as an uproar by the Thelash. Citizens in the streets were openly talking in groups about recent discoveries in Hath, something very unusual as discussions usually took place behind walls, in private.

That did not bother Shraal very much, since he had spent a lot of time writing books and was not done yet. Besides, he had appointed Helesh mayor for that exact reason : he needed some peace.

Helesh however was nowhere around the city and the Great Council did not have enough authority to send out an expedition to Hath. Therefore Shraal had to take the decision himself. He ended up being very unhappy about being disturbed for such trivial matters and made sure that he would properly punish Helesh for failing in his duties.

Another matter that had been quickly approved was Thlash's plan for a second ship. This one would be a real floating palace made of iron and silver, with large corridors, spacious rooms and huge holds. This would be the main transport for the Thelash's diplomatic force : something to impress other with.

===============================================================================

After a long journey Kira and Shehal finally arrived to Oakvale. The city was fairly large and bustling with activity. What surprised Shehal the most was the fact that the Koneko she had seen were all female. She had thought about inquiring on the way the Koneko managed to breed but decided against it. She would find out, eventually.

Shehal had been promptly led to the quarters the Koneko had made for her. These were smaller than what she had been used to in Shushaw but they were serviceable. After many seasons travelling through mountains and deserts she was more than happy to find herself in a civilised place.

quote: "Just great." The captain muttered, relaxing a bit when the elf started talking in gibberish. "Seems like he only knows elven, lets take him back to the priest, see what we can find out from him." He said louder to the other soldiers.
He moved in closer to check the ‼elf‼ for weapons, himself unbothered by the heat, but he moved back again once the sleeve of his shirt caught fire. After a moment to mutter a quiet curse he snuffs the fire out with his hand. "If you like your clothes don't get too close to him." Giving up on the weapon search they walk back towards the capital, motioning for the ‼Elf‼ to follow.

Fothacema followed the strange lizard creatures and did all they wanted as good as he could understand, trying to be friendly and unthreatening in general, hopefully all these misunderstandings would clear up ass soon as the language barrier was broken.
((So, you Dracon are fine whit the heat from the !!elves!! but their cloths are not? This could lead to some interesting situations considering the !!elves!! like hugging…))

quote: Felu was about to tell another zefie to throw more water, but then he had a thought. 'What if this thingy is like a drake spirit? (Creatures that Felu knows that are living flames) Dousing them with water might hurt them. He doesn't seem to be worried about the flames. Wait a second, look at that arrow.'
Felu issued his orders and gently put down his great sword, "ULP. Zefies, carefully put down your weapons, I'm not sure what that arrow does. You there, make good speed and get Yankee over here ASAP! He speaks more than one and half languages. Now, what should we do about our 'friend' here."
Felu ordered camp to be made. The Zefies carefully started unpacking their belongings. The !!Elf!! eventually moved off a distance and created a very cool looking green glass dwelling. Felu eventually made his way over their, and tried to explain that Yankee was coming soon. Using an X in the dirt and a small house made of pebbles, Felu believed that the !!elf!! got the idea that this was a new settlement.
Felu then realized that the settlement needed a name. "I'll call this place, Allyaid."

((you got the idea perfectly, down to that the green glass thing looks awesome!
Also, I wont bother cleaning up the previous post far back that nobody will re-read, but I have acknowledged that my description of Felu was wrong, the idea works anyways.))
Amizoimi didn’t really understand these creatures, but he liked them and understood so much as that they were at least good-ish, the water thing must have been a misunderstanding of some kind.
And soon he relaxed, and at the communication problems finally after many tries gave up on the DNSEGCP and tried to understand what they were trying to tell him.
The first and second night he spent in the tent-like -green glass shed-, but the third day he begun making a <<Green>> in a corner of the settlement,  it took abaut a week considering he didn’t work all the time, he just hoped these creatures would not count this as stealing land, and they seemed to be rather fine whit it.
Actually they seemed rather relaxed in general, much nicer than the lawyers and politicians of Efil-inira or cold intellectual engineers and scientists of Ariquemera.
The coming weeks he actually had many happy moments whit the Zefie people, despite all the troubles, whit language and the fact he couldn’t even go very near them or their buildings whiteout putting them on fire. To say they understood each other would be an exaggeration, but only a slight one, as over the weeks they got some of that friendly understanding that is beyond word, so maybe saying that they understood each other might actually not be an exaggeration at all, because one cant avoid understanding when one laugh and live together.
Amizoimi simply felt far more at home whit these lovely cuddly creatures than ever whit other !!elves!!, he would stay here, and live happy.

This is a <<Green>>. It menaces whit spikes of green glass. On the items walls is an panorama image of a forest in green glass. It is encrusted whit rubies On the items floor is an image of an !!elf!! and Zefies, the !!elf!! is surrounded by the Zefies, the !!elf!! is rejoicing, The Zefies are throwing a party.
Under the item is a nice spot in the outskirts on the city. From the Item is a beautiful view of the forest. The item is filled whit ¤green glass furniture¤.
The item is about 30m long, 20m wide and 5m high, and consists of 2 big green glass cupolas, 3 smaller ones, and 1 15m high tower. It has no doors, the walls of the big cupolas are transparent but the smaller ones are not.

((Amizoimi, basically joined the Zefie civ. He should be useful once you start metalworking. Also you basically get all his stuff, if you have any questions about it just ask, for a complete list see… I think it was my last post or the one before that. He has really no loyalty or disloyalty towards his original civ and will tell the Zefies everything he knows once they can communicate.
Also, as noted he makes rather fine ¤green glass stuff¤… if people like that house he might end up making more?
Of coarse, once possible he DO complete his mission and try to establish an alliance. maybe getting a Zefie ambassador to Efil-inira? It will be fun to get some use of The Seat of Authority, but he will have warned them about that.))
((BTW, I really like your species ideas; do you just make it all up as you go?))

As the lone Tengu messenger approached the gates of the fortress, a dozen bolts flew out from the high ramparts, felling him. A single Valtan soldier ventured out of the fortress, dragging the pincushioned corpse inside behind him.

-----

Flavvius sat at his desk deep within the fortress, a hard scowl on his face, and Madara's most recent message laid on the desk in front of him. As he read on, however, the scowl slowly faded, to be replaced by a wide, toothy grin. As he read the last line, he could no longer contain himself, and he let out a long, chortling laugh. Ha, the bloody bastard thinks he's got us. he thought. Standing, he walked over to his door, and briefly stepped outside.

"Ah, captain, there you are. Listen, I'm feeling generous. Head down to the hatcheries, tell them to reel in and prepare their finest for everyone, my treat."

I think i clearly said that he would just DROP the stone into the courtyard

as in, fly over the town and drop it

...

[Impending Doom]

((I assumed you were talking about the FORTRESS courtyard, which there is none. So instead, I thought he would drop it in front of one of the gates. Sorry for the confusion.))

[Akroma]

((where he dropped it doesn't matter, my point is that he would not even get close to anything that is even remotely pointy))

[Impending Doom]

((Ah, alright then. Would you like me to edit my post then?))

[Akroma]

((nope, what's done is done, and it was just one single messenger (btw, killing messengers: lol, they sure must be frustrated))

[Impending Doom]

((Naw, they're just far too suspicious of the Tengu to let any of them get too close. I originally planned to have Marcellus unleash some newfangled contraption on him, but I was at a loss for what it would be.))
