In defence of Cove town against the recent rising of orcs and undead, Captain Morana organised a sentry outside of the town gates. Upon arrival, I volunteered to stay and make crates while the others gathered resources to make them with. The logs and hides were piling in, and I set about making the crates. There was a heavy thud from behind as that smug git Drachir plonked down a set of much larger, better constructed crates behind me. Not to be shown up, I set about using them to construct a strong fortification, and it was soon manned.

The sentry was passing uneventfully until a single undead appeared before us. It demanded my soul in exchange for the safety of the rest of the guardsmen. I wasn't sure about what Raiden would Of course, a Covian would never surrender the life of another, and we soon sent him packing. Moments later the deadite returned... with friends! We launched into battle, our formation standing strong against them, though sadly the scout, being trapped outside, fell, though not without doing enough so that we could easily knock two of theirs. With some tactical fire by the undead and orcs, the two recruits fell, and the fight broke out of the sentry. It was a brave fight, and we made it difficult for them, but eventually we were overrun.

Aye we held firm for as long as we could before the hail of bolts from orcish crossbowmen won the day.

We gave as good as we got though. Well done to the brave guardsmen who defended the post.
