Update: The Storm
NWAG
Hakara manages to divine the time of attack to two hours, when he divined in that is, and also that a large presence is near this could be a small group of magically gifted individuals or another couple of hosts you dont know. What you do know is that this morning the enemy got 290 re-enforcements including a Divine Inquisitor of Lord Tegalon (Untorfalas Servant of Untor and the Lord of Good.) He began his prayers as soon as he arrived so something big is going to happen.
The attack begins and it is brutal. The opening move by the Inquisitor is mostly blocked by Hakara but the effort almost defeats him and the make-shift barricade across he breach in the wall is completely destroyed and the main doors of the keep itself shudder as though a mighty hand had struck them. The novice then unleashed his spell it was smaller but it did not need to be big with no opposition the spell rips the doors from its hinges and fires the splintered remains at Tarkars shield wall guarding the doors. This kills and mains 20 men and disrupts the entire formation. Luckily the archers escape untouched so they will still fire on the enemy. Finally to finish the magical assault the priest and the novice combine their powers and rip a several of stone slabs loose from the ceiling and drop them on the shield wall. Over 80 men were killed or badly injured by the falling slabs but the reserve redress the line and keep it at full strength.
Around mid-afternoon the Alvalon forces begin the attack with the swordsmen and dismounted knights leading. Over 70 men were felled by the archers before they reached the safety of the keep itself. The killing ground butchered 90 men before they reach the shield wall. When they do the entire front rank falls on the knights swords and some small groups of knights and swordsmen get as deep as the third or fourth rank before stopping. Then they fight their way out again and something more frightening appears. The musket men. With the infantry nearby to guard them they fire volley after volley into Tarkars men. Each lead bullet pieces two or three men before stopping. After the tenth volley they charge again and the pike men guard the musket men. With only 900 men left Tarkar retreats to the upper floors. The fighting is over for now.
Tarkar=900 men
Alvalon= 590 men
Thomas, MooseWarrior and Amdis
After some discussion you decide to enter the city and Amdis drinks his vials of blood to sate his hunger for a while. Five minutes after entering the city you see a poor woman get stabbed by two men in fine chain mail because she could not pay them. You quickly realise these are the slums of the city and it is going to take all your wits to survive.
Strategos
Your men move out with their equipment made silent and protective against the unseen by magic. Quickly finding the enemy your plan is executed. The dark spirits manage to distract the mages for a while whilst the rest of the elves get into position. They then charge into a mesh of finely woven threads made from raw magic. These burn the men but only the first rank get affected each time so most of your force get through and engage the mages. The fight goes well and two mages fall dead. The sorcerer is an entirely different beast. He blasts aside half of the elves sent to deal with him and crushes a couple of the weaker mages. But against so many enemies it is only a matter of time before he falls as well. The Daluk are killed with only one or two losses nothing really. The nymphs then move to healing the wounded and calling animals to attack the mages. As for the New One. The bear and he clash in a noise that the entire forest hears. The battle is terrible and it looked grim for the bear when you cast a small rune which rips away the New Ones connection with the Darkness and robs him of some of his power and strength. The nymph then grows the rune of binding beneath his feet and you complete the ritual you have spent days preparing. The New One is bound fast and the sorcerer escapes in a flash of light. The mages, all four of them who survived, are herded into a small area and guarded by the dark spirits.

The village ticks along fine and you find another very small village to attack that is barely above hamlet level.

A small group of nomads agree to join you. You have four in your group so you will split the money four ways. Now back to tracking.
sorry forgot to add the smiley.
