Title: A patrol with a narrow escape!
Post by: Erik Arkay/Evinyatar on August 13, 2005, 09:33:48 pm
*Erik Arkay enters the Barracks huffing puffing*

Sergeant Hrothgar, sir!

Yes, recruit Arkay?

*brathes heavily* Liches sir! *huff* Vesperians! *puffs* Barricade!

What 're ye all blabbing about? Tell me what happened!


Well sir! It all began with a standard patrol. Commander Eason ordered me to organise regular patrols to the graveyard! Today I was joined with Karad Helmsguard, Vince Valentin and James Moris. Nothin' seemed out of the ordinary when we headed out from 'em barracks.

We are all in a merry mood and I must say we all worked together pritty well. Everyone followed orders and we made light work of all the Undead minions there.

But just as we called the retreat back to the Barracks we spotted a man at the entrance wearin' a Vesperian uniform! Recruit Moris ordered him to stop for questionnin' but he turned tail and scuttled off in the forests. We persued him for a while but lost track a little ways off.

We all agreed this had to be reported as soon as possible so we headed back to the Barracks. We had just arrived at the Barracks and Vince and Moris where already inside when all of a sudden the Vesperian appeared out of nowhere again! Karad ordered him to stop but the sneaky fellow didn't heed his commands so Karad and myself went into hot persuit!

That damn bugger was as fast as the wind! Ofcourse he didn't 'ave to toil a heavy armored suit around but still...

That little bugger ran straight for Vesper! And I guess I should 'ave known sir, but as soon as I hit the clearin' of the Vesper Crossroads I was greated by barricades and what looked like a camped army!

That little weasel crawled deep into the encampment and pritty soon I was surrounded by a bunch of fierce lookin' buggers. An exceptionally smelly man, musn't have had his bath in weeks, laid his hands on me claimin' I couldn't leave now I'd seen them.

They stormed at me with axes and some sort of witchcraft was hurled at me! These boys meant business so I turned tail and ran as fast as I could!

A few of their men chased me in the woods but I ran like the devil 'imself was chasin' me!

So that's it sir! A narrow escape indeed. It looks like them Vesperians are up to no goods with roadblocks and scouts!

Good work recruit! I'll make sure the Baron hears of this!

*Erik slumps into a seat determined not to come out till the effects of all that running wears off*

Well reported Recruit. Perhaps a few men should patrol the Vesparian border, as things are quite tense between Cove and Vesper.
