Quadricentennial stepped along the edge of the building. He found he had no use in being in the castle.

"Something tell's me I wont get the chance to rectify things. I'm going home." He climbed down a pillar and landed but there were ugly undead ghouls roaming about.

"This will be most challenging."

Zeros' nodded.

"Yes. Haraldur is already there... As is Melkoth... I can sense that alchemist I saw briefly from the Crimson Empire there... As well as..." he turned his eyes towards Tsu. "Aura... I can also sense Tesla and a few others also coming to the ship," he said, before sighing, then cracking his knuckles.

"Well, it looks like we're on clean up duty, guys... And a big one, at that..."

He said, as he could see the distant outline of the ship now, in the horizon. He could also see the mist and sense what it truly was. While Haraldur and Melkoth may be extremely powerful, they never truly honed their skills. They rely too much upon pure power...

At least, that's what he assessed.

---

Allen nodded at Aura. He had NO intentions to fight Retan either. He frowned, though, as he stood behind Aura. There was something... Utterly strange about this mist.

"Aura... Is there something... Strange... About this mist we're in?" he asked lightly, trying to keep the conversation light... He also noticed he felt no condensation. Nor were his glasses fogging up...

 If I could make you mine...I\'ll go whereever you will go.\"

\"So lately, I\'ve been wondering...
 Who will be there to take my place...
 When I\'m gone, You\'ll need love...To light the shadows on your face.\"

\"If a great wave should fall...
 It would fall upon us...
 Well I hope there\'s someone out there...Who can bring me back to you.\"

\"Way up high or down low...I\'ll go wherever you will go.\"

\"Runaway with my love.\"

In your heart and mind, I\'ll stay with you all of time...

//assume im following vincent + co\\

Nick's brother came out of the G "Thanks for helping me".

---

"No prob Calavous" Said Nick. Nick walked towards Vincent. "How shall i be an asistance". Nick watched Kronos angrily. Nick heard something from trees again he took a slab of a rock and trew it into a bush. It was one of the zombies or something that started towards him. Nick couldn't really see what it was his eyes still hurt from watching the blinding light.

---

Calavous took out his sword and wacked the figure, it turned out to be a crimson solider that was almost eaten by the horde of undead beings. He put it back just as fast as he took it out. "Heh what a loser" Calavous said while the solider went out cold.

"A-Aura is down there?!" Tsu's eyes widened.
"Tsu, calm down. We just have to get there quickly. But it's still far off..."
"Then let's speed the hell up!"

--- --- ---

Aura looked around in the mist. "It is strange... What is this stuff?" She waved her hand through it, observing its strange properties. She suddenly felt... the intense evil. "Oh god... This mist... I fear... this... is Retan..."

//Burton, here is what happened: Kronos, who is the current focus of that location, arrived there, and started raising zombies. There ARE soldiers inside the fortress, underground, but they are sitting there and not doing anything. They are aware of the army on top of them, and because of that they are not coming out of the fortress. Prior to Kronos' arrival, there was NO one there. Soon afterwards, Vincent, Darak and Steorra arrived. Still, NO Crimson soldiers. They got Kronos, who is now with them. Once again - NO soldiers. The only ones that were apparently there were the ones that were beating on Nick. I don't know how they managed to get there - once they'd seen Kronos raising corpses, they'd probably run or try to fight the undeads, in which case they'd fail.
Also, my guys were NOT attacking you. The only one they were attacking was Quadricentennial, who is in a completely different location right now. Perhaps you thought they were attacking you, because Steorra, Vincent and Darak were hiding from them. Well, wouldn't you be hiding as well if you saw a mass of walking corpses?\\

(Ugh... One random lost Crimson soldier wandering around is okay.)

----

Vincent heard some commotion behind him, but paid it no mind as he was in the middle of a potentially important conversation.

"The Blue Minotaur?  Hmm yes, I've heard of them, though I was unaware they had a presence here in the Dark Continent.  Very well.  As per our agreement, I have no intention of standing in the way of your affairs, so long as you do not stand in the way of mine.  And though the men you resurrected were mine, they are quite useless to me dead, so I see no reason not to allow you to do what you want with them.

"However, I do require access to that complex over there."

He motioned to the remains of the crumbling fortress of Redvik.

"So if you would be so kind as to remove your forces away from the main entrance so we could get through, it would be appreciated...

"And when you are done with the Blue Minotaur, I do have a suggestion... more of a request really, since these all were my men at one time.  Would you be interested in lending your undead in an assault on the town of Ugran and its surrounding mines?  The spoils would be many-- a large supply of metallic weaponry, the finest on the continent, and much raw ore.  Of course, you would be entitled to a large cut..."

Things seemed to be falling into place perfectly.  Almost too perfectly...  Vincent was now potentially digging his hand into a third nation.

//Arg, alright... Sorry, Xorguy, I'm kind of strongly opinionated...\\

"This seemed like a good idea. A town rich with resources and equipment? My troopers will need everything they can get. I thought about it for a second, and replied:
-"Sounds good. I, however, am only interested in equipment. Ore and other raw materials pose no interest to me. I have... different methods of getting them."
I looked at the half-ruined fortress.
-"Oh, why of course. However, my army sort of... borrowed some items from it. It would be quite a lot of trouble to gather them all back now. I hope you don't mind."
Since I couldn't just wave my hand and set the army in motion (well, I could, but that would cause the group a lot of suspicion), I climbed on top of a rock, and yelled at the top of my lungs:
-"LEGION, MOVE OUT! ONWARD TO THE HERETIC TEMPLE!!!"
At the same time, I gave my army a mental command to move. I heard groans of discontent in my head - the soldiers wanted to see their ex-General one more time. Unacceptable. I gave an even stronger command, and the army was now set in motion. I jumped off the rock.
-"Well, it was nice meeting you in person, High General. I do hope we meet again."
With these words, I commanded a wyvern somewhere behind me to fly over me and grab me by my shoulders, carrying me away. Don't you love theatrical effects?"

--- --- ---

Once Kronos was out of sight, Steorra dashed to Vincent. Because of the terror she experienced, she seemed to mix languages, creating vaguely understandable speech.
-"Dominus... Mea culpa... I thought that that erat not a bonus time... Kronos... Ea is not what he appeared to be... He is exceptionally powerful, et it would be unwise to underestimate him... Ea was controlling that whole legiones by himself... Ego think that he would have around as much power as Ragnar himself, only in different fields..."
She stopped for a minute, and caught her breath.
-"I've read about Necromancers back when I was still studying the ways of magic. If this one is any good, then I fear for us all. Now, heed my advice: whatever you do, under any circumstances, do not allow him to die. Necromancers can revive themselves, even in death - but only in a form with their powers multiplied thousand-fold. It is believed that this is because they themselves travel to the land of the dead. Whatever happens, this must not take place."

(//Wow. That cleared alot of things. Thanks for posting it.)

Quadricentennial continued to stick to the walls. The living dead were walking around the camp, some with old broken armor, but alas it was strong enough to last a thousand wars. Quadricentennial then remembered his helmet.

"Drat. I can't leave without my collectable. I must go back to that storage room."

He sidled along the walls and headed back towards the pillar and climbed it. He got back on the ledge. He peeked inside the window he crashed through. There were soldiers investigating the room.

"Double drat." He then thought of something. "Wait. Why go back when I can simply go through the same opening of the sewer I originally entered through."

Once again he climbed down the pillar and stuck to the wall and sidled along, sticking to the shadows.

(//BTW Ein, for my article on Campaign, if were not in Romme, where are we?)

Allen nodded, but didn't seem THAT unnerved by it. He had been working with Retan as one of his lead alchemists for many, many years. He had "sort of" gotten used to the strange aura Retan had commanded.

"D-Don't worry, Aura... I'm sure we'll be fine... I know the others are coming... I can feel it," he said, trying to reassure the younger girl.

---

Zeros' nodded and accelerated more. A shockwave followed and rippled after him, as he sped past the group...

He could see the ship coming in clearer and clearer.. He could also see a strange, misty like substance suspended over and around the ship. He scanned it further and smirked a little... It seemed Retan was projecting his aura all around the ship...

"No time to dilly-daddle, guys! We need to hurry!" he yelled back to them.

"Good idea..." Duilin replied. He then strongly flapped his wings and began to only slightly tail behind Zeros'. Rink kept a good grip onto Duilin.

"No matter how many times we do this, I still don't like going this fast..." Rink complained

"Honestly, I don't enjoy it that much either." Duilin replied. "I don't even know how I can go this fast..."

----

"God, can they ever go fast." Valos thought to himself. "It'll be awhile to get there if I don't want to get detected..."

----

Darak rubbed his chin. He wasn't to sure about this Kronos guy; he seemed a bit odd. Yet, of course him being himself, he doesn't care too much.

----

Marshal continued his way following Tesla and the others. He felt a bit worried, the atmosphere and the air around him seemed to feel different.
