MNOTW XV: The Academy
It was the third month of the summit (the Amurites had insisted it be formatted as an academy, complete with headmaster, but no one else thought of it that way.) The focus had swiftly turned to magical solutions, since few nations had felt they could spare their best military minds, even if they trusted them at this kind of gathering. Despite that handicap, many innovative spells and other arcane solutions had been developed in a heartening display of international collaboration, and a few deployed, slowing, but not stopping the advance of the Clan. Sure, a few people had died during the testing, but that was the price of progress. The Clan had not been stopped, but spirits were high. Civilization would prevail, as it surely must. That feeling changed one day after breakfast. The headmaster, Autolycus, was summing up the research plans for the week, when a demon suddenly appeared at the front of the auditorium. Autolycus tried to defend himself, but proved to be no match. The demon then vanished as suddenly as it had appeared. This provoked some degree of consternation in the scholars, but that was nothing compared to when they looked at Autolycus' corpse. Apparently, he had been wearing a magical disguise these many months, and it had faded in death, revealing that:
Spoiler :
If the headmaster was an Orc, than perhaps this entire gathering was a trap! What if there were more orcs already inside? A few people suggested flight from the Academy, but cooler heads pointed out that without the solutions developed here, their respective nations didn't stand a chance. Instead, the gates to the outside world were all barred and reinforced with the most powerful wards these great minds could devise. They would root out the intruders and save the world!
