The Gathering Storm

Post by Dyluck »

The official speaker of Lyrenzia Foundation to you will be Damien, Elder of the GL.

If you want your castle to be dug out by Lyrenzia Foundation, meet with him to clear up our questions and concerns.
Until these questions are answered and you guarantee our safety after we build your castle, nothing will happen.
As for our security, that you will keep your word, we will build up an army.

It is up to you, to made the next step. We have made our step towards to you.

Lyrenzia Foundation
People of Troll's Bane,
As you may have read, Lyrenzia has declared that it will begin negociations as well as raise an army.
Negocitaions will begin, and make no mistake, a mighty army will rise as said.
As long as you are willing, any one of you can make an important contribution on the battlefield. Even if you cannot fight, there is much you can do for us besides stand in the way of charging bulls.

I hear stories of few who challenged our enemy head on with small numbers or poor strategies and fell, but we have been besieged by stronger foes before and have defeated them together. Today we are a larger community than ever before. Do not underestimate the strength of your unity and the power of the magic we hold inside and all around us.

A battle plan has already been devised but our chances of victory are much higher if many important details remain concealed.
If you are willing to help in the event of battle, then please follow these instructions:


1) Write your names here if you are not afraid to show to others the strength of your resolve that will never die. Do not write your name here if revealing your identify will serve a disadvantage to other purposes you have.


2) Send a private messenger to me, Korwin, or Crosis as soon as possible and put yourself under one of these categories. Do not write it here.

1. Fighter who can battle powerful monsters and not afraid to risk their life
2. Mage who can cast the strongest common spells
3. Archer
4. Neither

If you fall under the 1st category, send to Crosis.
If you fall under the 2nd and 4th category, send to me, Dyluck.
If you fall under the 3rd category, send to Korwin.


3) Gather in front of the tavern (2pm PST, 5pm EST), starting tomorrow and everday from now on that you are available until this is over. I ask you to simply take 20 minutes of your time everyday that you are available and wait there at the designated time. Nothing will happen most days, but I ask that you simply be there everyday and I will come give you further instructions one day.


You may not understand the purpose of all instructions,
Nor the purpose of it all be apparent now,
Nor be given any more than you need to know for your own role.
But I ask of you nowt o put your trust in me, and the Foundation.
When the day comes that we stride into the fiery glint of battle,
I can't promise you victory,
But I can promise you this
No matter the outcome of the battle
You will have written a chapter in a book that will never be closed
Nor ever forgotten
Somewhere, your names will be heard in the wind
Held to the hearts of those inspired by the free life
That you so valiantly fought to preserve
And then we will rise again
Against this threat and the next
As surely as the morning sun
As many times as it takes
To drive our enemies away
And uphold the greater meaning of our lives.

~Headmaster Dyluck of the Magic Academy~

I will fight with you all!
It's pointless to work just because you think the land will come back afterwards. Our land will simply be threatened again and again.
Does anyone honestly believe that someone like Darlok who threatens us once would just stop using us as slaves afterwards? What will stop him from repeating this again?
I rather make a stand now, then wait until people are too tired to fight from working as his slave

If Darlok wants to turn the land to sand then let him. He needs food and water just as much as we do.

Besides, our mages can make food and water with their spells

Anyone who does what Darlok just did is very unstable, I dont see why they even consider talking with him

After sending a dove to Dyluck, Aragon goes straight to the altar in the ceremonial cave and starts to pray to Malachín for his blessing and help in the coming storm.

Although my brother would not approve, I would be honored to fight along side my comrads in battle for good. I may lack the phisical strength needed but Magically, I can do wonders.

I will join your forces, too, as Darlok is not only a treat to our town but also to the balance of nature.

My bow is with the forces of Lyrenzia.

Due to some unfortunate circumstances, I can't be around to co-ordiante the organization of the army anymore.

There may be some changes in plans to whatever may be best suited to whomever will take care of these matters now, or as the situation dictates as in unfolds. In any case, the information that you have sent me will be used by Lyrenzia as best as possible.
From now on send all your messages either to Crosis, Korwin, or directly to Lyrenzia.


I encourage you all to continue to meet in front of the tavern everyday. They are not to discuss anything in particular nor was it planned that anyone would be there to lead a discussion. It simply serves another strategic purpose.

Best wishes,

~Dyluck~

To the people of Trollsbane, and the builders of Darlok, the wall around the mana well has been cast down by the builders, and then well it's self is not accessable, I fear that the well could be used for great evils by some of the mages on Darlok's control, do not touch the well, very few people can handle these powers, Dyluck, be prepared, you will need all the help you can get.

Dyluck has left, and unknown writer, the mana well was sealed by a magical sword, it is a normal well now. Moathia, all is well, don't start a fire now.

Huh? That is not how I understand it.... as the records show here:

http://www.illarion.org/community/forum ... highlight=
Dyluck wrote:I've sealed up the mana well to prevent anyone from drinking from the dangerous mana well again. As for the magic sword, it will remain inside the well to absorb mana until the day a threat that is so great arises to Illarion that it's power is needed......
Sounds like the seal means a magic barrier around the well so people can't get to it and drink it, and also stop anyone from disturbing the sword.

So it is again of no importance, you simply have helped my case that there is no need to worry about it. A magic seal is hard to break.

Dyluck removed the sword and destroyed it, and I have walked round it multiple times and even droped a stone in it.

If the mana well is 'open' then could this be what Darlok is using to create the drought? And if we fortify his defenses around it, wouldn't he have the town by the meat-and-two-veg?

Yes, a magic seal is hard to break, not impossible. I am sure Darlok would have been able to break it.

Nah, the well was surrounded by walls until the digging began and the drought started before that happened..
Seal should be hard to break if Dyluck went to the trouble of making seven stones to be the keys to it...

Hermie, are you saying to attack Darlok first on a possibility?
