- Understood. - Eloe replied laconically and darted off to rally with Azor. She had little regard for the wild ruckus that raged around except for her objective, keeping away from the fights as long as she could outrun or outmaneuver any potential foe on her way, her eyes warily scanning the havoc.

When she was able to eventually spot him from the distance, to her surprise, Azor had already engaged Takis' escort. Excellent. Not only they gained time she would waste looking for him and explaining the situation, also, she too had a surprise prepared for the incubus. Azor's unawareness of it should only make the distraction more believable. She analysed the situation on the go as she rushed towards the group, thinking through countless chains of outcomes of each move.

She reckoned Azor could fend for himself for a while, but judging by the looks and numbers, he would not be able to last long. As she anticipated, the incubus stuck to the side, avoiding the front lines.


- Hm-h-hm - She chuckled underneath the mask. It has been a while since she took on a bounty, but this, this was just like the old days. A more favourable situation was hardly to be expected, and this time, time was of essence. Now all she had to do is get close to her prey, take his badge and incapacitate him.

She gathered pace heading straight for Takis. She stretched her arm outwards, circling an arc around her, other hand followed close to her body in anti-symmetrical movement; her run fluently turned into a sequence of gracious acrobatic skips, cartwheels, pirouettes and saltoes; each of aesthetic quality making it more into a artistic dance; bypassing over, below and around the obstacles on her way, pacing onto the incubus.

But she did not come to Broken Reach to show off, she was merely taking a little warm-up before the dance she intended to perform in front of Takis' minders.

The sabre sunk into the hulking demon's stomach , airborne Azor's weight driving it up to the hilt in demonic flesh. He hung on as gravity pulled him down, foul guts and half digested meat spraying from the wound. The entropic champion rolled as he hit the ground, trying to avoid any flailing strikes from the maimed brute and continuing after the retreating Incubus. The battle madness was in him now, entropic blade weaving as if it had taken a life of it's own. Leg, throat, clawed hand, the Athasian struck at each ferociously as he danced foward, the smoking blood of fiends scalding what skin wasn't covered by armor."TAKIS!" He screamed with each fallen enemy.

The one ring he wore glowed with magic, empowering the warrior and sapping the surrounding demon's strength. [Ring of Untherite Generals, Battletide]

The blades of his fellow doomguard did not budge at Mauric's declaration of assuming command. In fact, Doomlord Theumar gave a quick order to defend the factory, and his guard moved to block the entrance completely. His gave then returned to Mauric - "Take command of the exterior defenses, if you and your men wish to help. We can hold them here."

Meanwhile, Azor carved a path through the demonic horde. His feats of valor were many, as were the demons slain. . . though Takis inched ever further away as demon after demon blocked Azor's path.

//Eloe, I assume you're going to try to shadow jump directly to Takis?

//Note for everyone: The last event area is in, so would you all be available for an in game event the Sunday after this? (May 31st, afternoon US Central Time).

He was pushed back as he tried to force his entry but outnumbered as they were there was no option but to comply for now. If they fought among themselves at this point they would soon be dead at the hands of the invaders. "She will be most displeased if you let them penetrate the factory." He said as he rushed away to join the fray.

Going to sacrifice us to buy yourself some time if not assisting them from within. He thought while running along the wall.

((Works for me too.))

Doomlord Theumar took a moment to take in the situation after Mauric departed, and then ordered his men to defensive positions. The doors swung shut with a heavy clang.

* * * * * * * * * * * *

Meanwhile, Eloe skirted the demonic brawl, and flitted through the shadows towards Takis - arriving at the demon's side moments after he had extricated himself from the crowd and was about to dart into a side alley.

Azor was close enough to see the demon trying to make his escape, but two demons still stood in his way. . .

//Just fyi, Sunday's quest will not be in Broken Reach, so we need to finish this up here before moving on.

Also, is 1pm Central Time (GMT-6) good for everyone on Sunday?

((Will be there Mimi. This is 8pm gmt+1 right? ))

He would seek the best overview he could find of the area and the battle trusting the two martial superiourly pair to deal with Takis as he directed the troops. Looking for tactical grounds and exploits such as ravines, cliffs and depressions. The enemys positions aswell as their own. Singling out scattered groups. Hopefully they will disrupt the commanding demon

"Shieldwall infront! Archers behind! Attack their flanks and invite them into the middle but don't stray to far to either side. Make use of your holywater and grenades when them are cramped together between us and press onwards. Ingnore the mindless critters and focus on the higher ranking demon."

"Their empty howls shatters at your sheilds!
Their feckless claws breaks meeting your steelclad chests!
Let them shriek their pathetic utterances and let the rake and rend in all futility!
The enterinty they claim are about to be torn from their worthless souls!
Before our ends we have no fear. If we fall we fall serving destruction! We can know no defeat because ruin is the ruler of any battlefield win or lose destruction will be wrought! Again we will remind them how much immortality is worth! Naught! It cumbles before entropy! It crumbles before you! For you are entropy incrarnate!!" His speech bore a resemblence to the one he gave in Twelvetrees to remind them of their former victory against all odds.

The stategy was a bold one as always with him. To advance while entrapping the demons between them. It was also a test for Theumars force to allow the demons closer to the fortress and a precaution to quickly advance beyond the range of the forces inside would he betray them at this point. Thirdly it would allow the two columns to break away in two directions if the battle would be lost.
