Knights of Tezoth

/ Revan, did you forget about the mirror? Or should I fly to Osha for it now? /

He forgot about us, and you're here talking about the mirror.

Mourns Lorican

- The wheel of bloody fortune has completed its turn, revealing a moment of truth to the children of Sordgard and all of Tezoth! The leader of the uprising, stripped of pride and reason, has been crushed! - Having proclaimed the end of the battle, Renavan the Pious placed his pale hand on the shoulder of the new lord. - The shards of the past sink silently into the ocean of oblivion, yielding the throne to the present day. Glory and eternal longevity to Adata Transcend, who has ascended to the throne of the North!

- Long live Lord Adata! - Shouted Astarotia, standing in the crowd.

- Long live Lord Adata! - The common townsfolk and warriors echoed in support.

Thus, the question of succession in Sordgard was finally resolved, and with it, Deus of the Age of Discovery officially declared his return, though no one yet knew where it would lead.

- You remained true to yourself until the very end, Lady Nosi. - Gingkink said to the cooled body of the fury he had served. - Lord Afortek would have been proud of you.

A bit later that same day, in some secret and dark place.

- I conjure you, Knight of Perfection, cast off the shackles of oblivion and return to the light of your monarch!

...

- The mind foresaw such an outcome, and yet this manifestation inspires only deep regret.

He could have put a portrait of Nihilus on it for him.

Well, at least Ging turned out to be a decent person.

At least Lorican got rid of the debuff...

Yes, Ging is now the last hope of Swordgard.

I have no idea how he's going to wipe out that imbalanced army backed by Sith magic...

Does it stack with itself, or can it not reduce the enemy's defense below 50%?

Rezara comes to Adata. Since the storyteller was going to sleep, it was up to the latter to start the conversation.

Let him sleep, it's long overdue.

I'll just note that everyone in the battle died dead... two conclusions:

a) medicine in Swordgard is very poorly developed

b) Rezare was damn lucky not to die

Considering that Lorican was torn in half, I'd be extremely surprised if medics could patch him up.

What a sad end he had, after all.
