Chain took it out of her hands "Basically what you were talking about, these elves don't want to hurt anyone here and are bringing the fight to an assumable unjust system that would declare war on them...also the elves side wants the whole bias against creatures to be erased" Chain hands it back to the Knight "I think we need to find more about this before we do anything, sometimes sides that do things for the right reasons don't always end up on the better side after the fact, this thing does not exactly go in depth on what will happen after this war and I would hate to help a cause that makes the downfall for all the kingdoms in this world" Some other people in the room looked like they were interested in it as well "I think some are agreeing with that man as some look pissed" Banner pointed the dragon and others in the room "Dame right! Why would they just invade like that!" "Some families have those guards as family, why would they take them away from us!?" "Starting a war to make peace? Ridicules!" it felt like the room was divided between the loyal, the indifferent, and the non loyal, some even showing there true race was not human.

"Well, sir, do you know of King Fenrir? He and his Holy Paladins were going to launch a war on the Dragonborn, then they were going to set their sights on Vilum. My allies and I created a resistance comprised of members of every race, including powerful mages, and members of both the Dragonborn and Elven high councils. Fenrir wishes to wipe out all that could possibly oppose him. We decided to make the first move in this war, catch him off guard, and end this with as few casualties as possible. First, however, the resistance needs to gain a foothold here in Idalum. Also, between you and me, some of the other, more powerful mages and I sense dark forces approaching, and the kingdoms need to be united to stop them. Most Humans wouldn't ever listen to us mages, though those with powerful magical ties, such as the Elves and the Dragonborn sense it as well. Dark days approach, and we must be ready to meet them," Agravain said, his tone becoming very grim towards the end. "I must go, though, I sense my allies may need me," upon uttering these final words, he bolted downward towards the ground at the speed of a lightning bolt.

Between the dire wolves, the Elves, Jack, and Allendune, the guards were decimated, those who remained were cowering in their boots, having dropped their weapons. However, the knights and the paladin remained. The five knights of the town had surrounded Allendune and Jack. Jack looked up to see the bolt of light just in time to grab Allendune and teleport out of the way of the incoming projectile, and not a moment too soon. As Jack and Allendune were teleported several feet from the knights, the bolt crashed in the middle of them, knocking them back a few feet and onto their backs. Where the bolt had landed knelt a man in black robes with gold trim, the glow around him starting to fade. "The cavalry has arrived," said Jack. Shortly after he said this, the man stood up and a blade appeared in his right hand, as if from nowhere. "Tell me," he said to the knights, "Have you ever fought a mage?"

Orion gave a low growl, but decided that it would be best not to interfere any more. If anything, he could just join the resistance if what Agravian said was true. The dragon then turned his attention to where he saw the dragoness head into the clouds, not really knowing what to do.

 

Kyubi gave a slight smile as she shook Banner's hand. Unfortunately for her, a piece of her cloak fell down, revealing her skin color. Of course, that wasn't a dead giveaway that she was a dark elf but it was a hint at the very least. She then turned her attention towards the black knight and pulled out a small throwing knife, before twirling it in between her fingers. "I've heard a few stories of such laws and what the punishment is for using magic. Considering the fact that there are children present, I'm just going to say that they're nothing but superstitious idiocy."

[Drago Ryder 639]

Gale and Blitz could both tell that the town was lost at this point, but that something else was also going on. Very few civilian casualties had actually occurred and most of the attacks targeted the guard. "This is only a guess, but I think this has to do with the anti-magic regime the current king of this country has set up." Gale said.

 

Blitz had nodded slightly and knew what he had to do. The neko had been experiencing nightmares for the past few days and call it instinct, but he could tell that something big was coming. "If they want to free the mages, then why don't we give them a hand?" With that, the dragoness dove out of the cloud cover, a cone of air forming behind her, and opened her mouth. As she sped forward, a high pitched screech reverberated through the air, before she fired a shaped charge of oxygen/acetylene fueled flame at a guard tower the elves hadn't managed to occupy. The last thing she needed was archers to shoot her down.

The Black Knight looked about the room then shrugged, "I guess that's it then." He and Midnight turned to leave the house before he looked back over his shoulder, "I'm going to see what I can contribute, anyone who wants to follow me out is welcome."

 

With that they left the house to assess the situation. It seemed that the only real threats were the well armored fellow knights and the extremely well armored one, most likely a champion of sorts. They were opposed by the troublesome pair from earlier and a new one who had entered from the sky.

He approached at a somewhat leisurely pace though still with a sense of urgency, sword drawn though resting on his shoulder, and his cape billowing softly in the light wind of the area. "Oi!" He called out to the two groups, "What's your stance on magical creatures? It will determine which of you gets the pleasure of my sword at their side."

Agravain, Jack, and Allendune rushed towards the downed knights. Allendune stabbed one through the heart with his glaive, Agravain did so with his sword, and at the tip of Jack's staff emerged a spike, which he impaled through a knight's heart as well. Then a dire wolf lifted one up with its mouth, shook him around, snapping his neck, and then took him back to the group who started feasting on the dead knight. Finally, one of the Elven knights came along and stabbed the final knight through the heart with his sword. It was then they heard a voice.

 

"This is the end of your little siege," it said. The voice belonged to a man in heavy armor, a Holy Paladin. "You think you can just take this town? Your attempt will be noted, and your bodies will be returned to your homeland," he said to the Elves. "You two, however," he said, looking towards Jack and Allendune "Will be tried for treason, and you, my little mage," looking now at Agravain "will feel the wrath of a Paladin." Upon speaking those final words, Agravain collapsed and started convulsing in agony, his screams conveyed pain beyond anything imaginable. This was the power Paladins held over mages, as well as magic races. He then turned his attention towards the Elves, and the same happened to them, though to a much lesser extent. The Elves quickly fainted, though Agravain remained awake to suffer.

This whole siege just been a annoyance to Shana. The plan she had formulated to actually do what she wanted without drawing attention had been ruined, but in it's stead, a town of Humans had been attacked by Elves. Not exactly her idea of a fun day, but she couldn't help but feel happy that this arrogant race had been taken down a notch and put in it's place. At least for now.

 

Climbing up some walls and standing atop of the roofs in the area, Shana felt no need to hold back on her powers now and let her true form out. While her physically appearance beside her eyes didn't change, the aura of magic she gave off was entirely different than before. Much more powerful and much more dark. Anyone within about 300ft would be able to sense her as she was. Looking down off of the roof, she saw a group of non-humans being assaulted by the towns Holy Paladin. A formidable opponent for any magic user and equally deadly to magic creatures. Since at the moment she had no counter to the Paladins indirect attack against magic, fighting him would be pure stupidity, during daylight, suicidal and while Hungry, just why?

 

As it was, she would stand outside of the Paladins range and observe for now.

 

"Come on, wound the Paladin. Bring him to the brink of death. The blood of such a pure and holy spirit must be so clean and powerful. I wonder how much power I could gain from it."

Kyubi glanced at Banner and nodded slightly. "Let's just say that I don't exactly have a good relationship with most of my species." She said, conscious of those around her. "I'm looking for someone to help with that, though."

 

Orion heard the screech and saw the flame, causing a surge of emotions in him. "It is her." He thought to himself, before noticing the paladin. The man didn't seem to notice him, so it would've been best if he had just left. Of course, that wasn't the way he rolled. Using the cloud cover to his advantage, the dragon fired a stream of electricity at the Mage. It wasn't really magic based so much as rapid and specific contortions of his muscles in order to direct negative ions from the clouds. The fact that the armor the man wore was mostly metal didn't really help the paladin.

Gale noticed the lightning and felt a few long since buried memories surface, and the dragoness gave a low snort. "Looks like someone had a change of heart." She thought to herself, before turning her attention to the paladin. He could easily block her flame, so the best thing she could do was land next to Shana.

 

Blitz dismounted his companion and looked at the scene in front of him with a look of disdain. "This is torture." He muttered to himself, before glancing at Shana. "We should leave. Knowing them, we'll be targets for the inquisition."

The stream of lightning caught the Paladin off guard, and the fact that it wasn't magic based caused him serious injury. He collapsed to the ground in agony before passing out. Jack and Allendune took this time to start removing the Paladin's chestplate. Upon doing so, Allendune raised his glaive and pierced it through the Paladin's heart, swiftly ending his life. "I must say, I foresaw us dying by his blade. What an odd series of events that was that granted us such an upper hand, I mean, it's a fairly sunny day today, so few clouds," Allendune said. "Wait a moment, where's Agravain?" said Jack.

Midnight stumbled when the magic was removed, causing the Black Knight to roll off of his back. The weight of his armor was all the more apparent, making it difficult to move until the paladin was dead.

 

The Black Knight was also blinded by the Paladin's anti-magic as he couldn't do his detect life spell to see. Though his vision returned quickly once the paladin was dead. He checked Midnight quickly before he rushed over to the dead figures. "I suppose that answers my question."  He retrieved the paladin's sword, comparing it to his own. It was expertly crafted to be sure, much longer and wider as well.

Elves speaking of some sort of rebellion against the tyrannical humans. Well, that may not be 100% accurate, but close enough for her. At first glance this seemed to be terrible for her: More restrictive travel, higher guard alert, basic difficulty she didn't need. But at a further glance this wasn't too bad of a plan. She might just actually follow these people and see what happens. By this point, Shana had her smile back on her face and was back to her cheerful attitude.
