Elijah decided there was nothing more that he could do for the human so he decided to ditch him and get out of this doomed fortress so he got up and heard knocking coming from above the trapdoor so he cautiously readied his axe and headed up the ladder and pushed the door open quickly enough that it could smack anyone near it.

Elijah's sudden opening of the trapdoor caused Airen's staff to go flying across the dust.

"What in the world is going on here? And why are you looking so shifty down there? And watch what you're doing?!?! You could've hurt me!"

Airen runs to grab his staff and returns to the trapdoor to look down at Elijah.

[Nate]

Elijah starts laughing in such a way that it sounded quite odd for any living creature and said "There's a wounded human down there, don't want something finding him".

[obiwan22]

"Well?! Are you caring for him? Why is he wounded?! Why isn't there anyplace for anyone to rest their legs? In fact, why are you even in my bleedin' way? Move aside. I'm coming down!"

Airen jumps on the ladder and tries to get down into the crawlspace.

OOC: ... A character does not have to be participating in the plot with Maldenar to exist, Obi And I said their profiles don't exist. Not that -they- don't exist. Silly.

You said their profiles shall exist. Ah wells. Just curious.

Elijah gives a bit of a growl "The stupid human wounded himself, if he can't deal with them himself from here on out, he's better off just dying". Elijah then left the trap door and walked away.

The reknosk is attacked and slightly wounded by Elijah, and then is annoyed by many arrows whistling toward it from behind. It prepares to attack Elijah, but when he runs and the archers continue to loose their arrows, it turns toward them and charges at the small building they are using as cover. The reknosk roars in the usual deafening way, then smashes the building with a few sweeps of its claws. It leaves the archers for dead and walks back toward where Elijah was, searching for a trace of his passage.

Elijah could not be found, but it seems that there was activity near a trap door under a ruined structure. This could be where he went... The reknosk begins to pound on it with its claws, trying to break through to get revenge on its attacker. This is a strong door that is supported by stone, but it won't be able to last for long with this kind of stress put on it.


OOC: The layout of the room or passage is up to Darkness.

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

Meanwhile, Aether's attack finishes the felled reknosk. It growls loudly before falling unconscious.

Another reknosk is under heavy attack by the archers and knights. It swings wildly, killing many of its attackers and destroying the buildings that are being used for cover. The ground shakes as it moves about, but not as strongly as the growing tremors that are happening throughout the desert. These tremors are strong enough to cause many walls to crack in Maldenar.

The third reknosk charges through the market and attacks the archers' fortification. The archers scatter to find new cover, but many aren't able to escape. Some knights charge toward it to slow its advance.

OOC: Uh, I guess disregard my previous posts up to Elijah being in the trapdoor with Rahvus


Elijah was tending to Rahvus in any way he could when something of great force started smashing away at the trapdoor. Elijah thought to himself "Oh great, one of those demons must have followed me, I should have taken care of it before coming down here". Elijah readies his axe waiting for the trapdoor to break.
"My name is Elijah, manners aren't my thing but I'll humor you for calling me boy, I'm somewhere around 15000 years old, maybe older but I have no memory of my... previous life, now get ready, these demons are of great strength, far more then my own".

[obiwan22]

"Hey, what the hell are those things? In fact, what the heck is going on here?!?! By the way, tell me your name boy! No manners these days. You may call me Airen, or sir."

OOC: Sorry for being abrasive. Haha, just my character. I hope you don't think I'm being a jerk/difficult on purpose.

Btw, Cspace, check your bloody inbox...

[Nate]

OOC: Obi.. uh pretend our previous posts pretty much didn't happen, just say you're in here with us already and the Resnosk is at attacking the door XD and I'll just update my previous post to reply to your's. and no worries about it, I know it's your character, being a nice and kind character always wouldn't be exciting.

[obiwan22]

OOC: Which post are we disregarding? I thought I had sent Airen down into the trapdoor corridor/thingy, and I disregarded you leaving. So we're chilling inside while a giant dragony thing is attacking, at least, that's what I think.

IC: "Well, why the hell are we fighting them? Let's talk to them peaceably. You never know. After all, have you ever tried to talk to them? They're obviously sentient."

[Nate]

OOC: Yeah, that's decent enough in disregarding.

IC: "You can if you wish, but I'll have none of it, peaceful is not in my blood, after all if you can't tell, I am undead myself.

[Ruckus Fox]

Scaf cries bestially as he hangs onto the Reknosk, trampling about the middle of the market still. One was dispatched and finished while there was still the one he was on and the other still coming from the North.

Fighting the only way he knows how--dirty, he swings his massive blade against the demon's abdomen over and over again, striking the same wound into a larger and larger gash.

[obiwan22]

"Well, fine." Airen says to Elijah. "Now will you please tell me what is going on here? We have a brief moment's respite. What are these undead things, and who is this man?" He asks, pointing at the unconscious form of Rahvus.
