Word spreads through the camp that Factol Sarin and his guard will be returning to Sigil to present the next steps in the Campaign to the Faction Council.

Members of the Outlands defense team are likewise encouraged to attend, to give their first hand accounts of the situation.

((Harmonium PCs are especially encouraged to attend))

Upon returning to Sigil, Cornelia soon learns of the Crimson Dawn, with a bit of interest she travels to the Outlands. Learning some more details from the locals, Cornelia starts attacking the supply lines, few of the smaller camps. Soft blooms of smoke rise above the tree tops and up words to the sky. The ones whom investigate the sites of the attacks would note a few things.

1) Any / all live stock, beast of burdens, were set free.

2) Any worth taking was taken. Medical supplies, crafting materials coin gems, arms and armor, and paper work / maps / Correspondences.

3) With the Tents / wagons / crates / broken shields / weapons on fire may be hard to tell what was all taken.

4) Bodies are pierced with arrows, and or shrapnel of some type, other bodies look to be pierced with a thinner blade, , , while most seem to have been nothing short of being cubed, with a larger weapon.


Back the War camp, at the smithy broken bloody weapons, shields, and armor of the CrimsonDawn start to pile up, , , at the Healer/medical tents extra medical supplies could found, and even at the war table a Map is left marking were the Red Dawn camps are, the ones that Cornelia attacked are Xed out, along with all the captured paper work.


Back in Sigil, when Cornelia was in town, She would normally spend a lot of time, at her shop playing merchant, , , but, this was not the case, in fact she mostly kept her shop closed or opened for short amount of time. She could also be seen in the slums, moving from one clinic to another leaving behind fresh food, and medical supplies.
Then finally returning home for a quick wash rest, spend some time with family, before returning to the War camp, and starting a new assault upon the supply lines.

The war had changed for a Kobold Knight in the camp - Resix had moved from the front lines - well armed with many planeswalkers and well established, to working full time with the medical staff at the camps, and also handling the prisoners. The paladin has been seen moving to the prison camps often, offering support and even an ear to the many war prisoners from the Crimson Dawn - even ones he urged to surrender before.

His days and nights are long, and difficult as he now works behind the front lines while the others keep the war effort going. Sometimes, the most essential part of combat is support.

With every day that passes, with each Dawn, and sunset Smoke from burning supply wages rise skyward, from the ones Cornelia was able to find, and track. Unless Cornelia is called away by divine cries of help from the ones that are being attacked by Crimson Dawn. There’s a short time, at random times every day, were Cornelia returns to the war camp, and to sigil.

Back at the camp Resix may notice that the medical supplies that Cornelia drops off were Crimson Dawn’s. The broken weapons armor shields and the like are still piled at the smithy, any and all paper work are dropped off at the war table, few notes attached of where and when each piece of paper work was taken,,, are marked with “ Trap/decoy ? “

Back in Sigil Cornelia could be seen talking with the Mercants, along with Lance. She still takes medical supplies and food to the clinics that are in the slums of sigil. While in these clinics Cornelia could be seen talking with the healers, and some of the rougher looking people that may happen to be there. Be for leaving Cornelia leaves behind some extra things from coin and gems, to extra medical and food supplies at each location. The way home Cornelia stops at the arena to watch watch a gladiator mach, and to gather some info on who are some of the better fighters. Then Finally Cornelia returns home, for a quick rest, and to spend some time with her twin girls. Then upon awaking Cornelia returns to the War camp to pick up the assault upon the supply lines.

Word finally comes that the Harmonium High Command (now Mover Tonat Shar since the death of Factol Sarin) is ready to at last launch their offensive against the other side.

They will need the giant panda key.

More importantly, they will need all the members of the Outlands Defense Team.

((Planning the event for Saturday at 2pm US Central Time. All members of the Outlands Defense team are welcome!))

((Addendum: We will ALSO have an Outlands Defense team event on SUNDAY at 2pm US Central Time.))

Ran Gedjoldor, a relatively fresh face to the Sigil had seemed to join the warcamp in Outlands. Not looking like much of a warrior in his decorative attire, staff and spectacles. Addressing the people within the planewalker camp "I greet all of thee veterans of war." inclining his head "After careful ruminations. I, Ran Gedjoldor, have decided to lend the aid of the Library of Lore to this war of thine. Though the Lord of All Magic, my lord, is often called the uncaring... I have after careful study, witnessed how out of balance the realms of the invaders are. And I will thus borrow thee, what is within my power, to restore such a balance."

Whether the ramblings of some sudden guy coming to tell his lifestory caught attention or not, such an announcement appeared important to him. "With me, I bring my expertise in evocation magic. Forspild if you will."

Ra'nivdra approached! She would sign her name with the others, though she had some trouble writing it due to her tribal illiteracy.

After the successful assault on the Other Glorium, the Harmonium and Sigilian Army secure the city. Any of the enemy who surrendered are taken to Sigil's prison.

The Planeswalkers of the Outlands Defense team are informed to stand ready, as the army will be moving again tomorrow. . at least, if all goes well.

Meanwhile, back in the Warcamp word was that Mover Killeen Caine had arrived from Arcadia.

Cornelia can be seen moving about the site of the battle, and the medical tents offering medical aid to the ones that take her up on the offer. When able she takes the time to Pray to her Goddess Sune, and offer’s prayers to the weary.

Ygthil focused his efforts in the city of Excelsior, joining the other Harmonium grunts in the relatively mundane but necessary work of securing the city. Over the next few cycles, he rooted out any remaining Crimson Dawn combatants he could while trying to keep any civilians of the city calm and helping them move onto Sigil as refugees if necessary.

Only once that situation seemed stable and no Crimson Dawn surprise counterattack seemed likely, Ygthil threw himself into training his fellow soldiers. Helping to refine their swing and their defensive capabilities, Ygthil threw his giantish fortitude into this task for all hours of the day.
