Sack of Mergon
Year 98
As the armies of Silat poured over the River Mergon into the taking over the “Holy Land” the royal family evacuated….
Piaf stared over the city walls as the few remaining spearmen desperately held against the agile Silat soldiers scaling the walls. A never ending stream continued to pour over the walls despite the resistance put against them. It soon became obvious the walls could not hold and Piaf sent a dispatch to The One to begin evacuations. The One immediately got the Barson and 200 crusaders to bring the book to safety in the high mountains. As the enemy slowly closed the circle around the building site of the House of Taig the King and the royal personage alone with thousands of citizens and what remained of the army fled into the mountains.
Somewhere in the Nearby Mountains
Year 99
After more of a year of guerrilla movements and fighting in the narrow passes of the mountains south of Mergon the crusaders made a stand at Taig pass as it soon became called. The crusaders would shout “FOR TAIG” at the top of their lungs before charging at the lightly armored yet agile Silat soldiers. Hundreds died fighting in the name and for their god in those narrow mountain passes. The One would be constantly bless soldiers before they charge into the fray and gave his men much inspiration. It was thought why would Taig let the The One survive if there was not a purpose for him surviving? This gave the soldiers much confidence that Taig was just testing their willpower and if they continued to fight they would soon be home.
Lord Piaf’s Speech
Year 100
We have been fighting for two years now for many reasons god, glory and just to return home. Our enemies are strong and determined but they are not fighting for their homeland. They are fighting for some King’s greed in Silat who has no intention but tearing down all our hard work in Mergon and bringing back the bricks and wealth to help build some new summer place. You will not let him tear your homes down and desecrate your religious institutions. Now we must find toleration with our new found allies to the east for if we are ever to reclaim our homelands we must tolerate others beliefs and spread the message of Taig peacefully. We have looked at spreading our faith all wrong in that people must accept the faith of Taig by opening their eyes not through fear. This is why our Taig has punished us for ignorance and sinning and that is why we must set things right and rebuild the purity of Taig.
On to Victory!!! Let Taig have Mercy on us!!!
The next few years would decide the fate of Taig in the cradle as many men laid down their lives for what they believed in. For their families, for all the ones who were killed without reason, to overthrow a mad man, to avenge the death of the missionaries, to bring peace to the Holy Land.
