The [[Daamuz Clan|Daamuz Clan's]] forces began their journey from [[Innyshwylt]] to the [[Dewbrock Plain]] landing site, however 4 days out they were discovered by the [[Gargoyles]] that [[Alborz]] suggested sending out to sea. The next day, 3 days away from landing, while [[Rorik Baranu|Rorik]] and [[Saorsi|Captain Saori]] were talking on the deck of the [[Maiden's Revenge]], the fleet were attacked by the Gargoyles in their attempt to gather more information to report back to Alborz. Despite there best efforts, 2 to 3 Gargoyles managed to escape and fly away which told the [[Daamuz Clan]] that they have been found out, making the landing even harder. | |||
That same day, at [[Llyngyr Cadw]], after the [[Gargoyles]] return, [[Alborz]] was listening to his slaves sing while he was in deep thought looking at a battle map laid out in front of him. Alborz was considering his options regarding his final assault on [[Crafanc]] and the [[Helgwin Clan]]. [[Zareen]] entered and updated him on the return of the Gargoyles from the raid on the [[Daamuz Clan|Daamuz Clan's]] invasion fleet. Alborz and Zareen come up with a plan to trap the Helgwin Clan and Daamuz Clan inside to Crafanc by removing their ships and destroying their provisions after they empty their ships. | |||
2 days before the invasion landing, [[Dinnidek Daamuz|Dinnidek]] formed a war council consisting of Dinnidek,[[Tordek]], [[Daerun Daamuz|Daerun]], [[Rorik Baranu|Rorik]], [[Saorsi|Captain Saori]], [[Diessa Daamuz|Diessa]], [[Veit]] and [[Sunny]], It was agreed that despite being tracked by the Gargoyles, the invasion was to proceed in the morning landing on the southern part of the [[Dewbrock Plain]] with the [[Maiden's Revenge]] providing as much fire support as they can while the longboats disembark to shore, noting that [[Rhyss]] and his rangers should be there providing support against the Abyssal artillery. | |||
Meanwhile, [[Rhyss|Rhyss']] and his rangers including [[Meick]] were resting with [[Kilvar Helgwin|Kilvar]], his [[mastiff]] [[Boon]] and the [[Helgwin Clan|Helgwin]] Rangers by telling stories around the campfire. They find out the Abyssal forces that were sieging [[Crafanc]] were moving towards the landing site of the [[Daamuz Clan]], knowing that in 2 mornings the invasion will begin and will continue to follow the Abyssals to the site. | |||
The morning of the invasion arrived and the clan's forces had arrived at the [[Dewbrock Plain]], beginning their assult. [[Dinnidek Daamuz|Dinnidek]]'s landing party, including [[Tordek]], took on the southern shore which was held by [[Slave Orcs]] and [[Daerun Daamuz|Daerun]]'s landing party, including [[Felwyr]], took on the northern party which was held by [[Slave Warriors|Ratkin]]. The crew of the [[Maiden's Revenge]] (including [[Saorsi|Captain Saori]], [[Sunny]], [[Moon]] and [[Arvind]]) were providing covering support to the invading forces along with [[Rorik Baranu|Rorik]] and the [[Green Wyverns]]. [[Diessa Daamuz|Diessa]] was aboard the [[Celestian's Smile]], led by [[Therngeld|Captain Therngeld]], along with [[Veit]] and the commander of the Ironcald onboard, [[Bruon]]. Captain Therngeld was attempting to get the Celestian's Smile closer to shore to allow for the landing party to get to short quicker when it was hit by Abyssal Dwarf artillery, injuring many such as Veit and killing Therngeld. Diessa summoned [[Joro]] to push the broken Celestian's Smile to the shore. At the same time, [[Rhyss|Rhyss']] rangers including [[Meick]] and [[Banwn]] were creeping through the woods towards the Abyssal Dwarf artillery along with the [[Helgwin Clan]]'s rangers led by [[Kilvar Helgwin|Kilvar]] due to being delayed by Halfbreed patrols on the way to the invasion site. After hearing the Celestian's Smile getting hit by the artillery, the rangers charged at the artillery and killing the crews.[[Saorsi|Captain Saori]] noticed Decimator's forming up to take aim at Daerun's forces who were currently engaged by Ratkin, setting up a potential slaughter on the Free Dwarfs unless she did something. Captain Saori quickly ordered Sunny and the crew to full sail and ran the Maiden's Revenge directly inbetween the Decimator's and Daerun's forces, beaching the craft in the process however blocking the Decimator's from firing on the invading dwarfs. Rorik and the Green Wyvern's began firing on the Decimator's with the ships cannons joining in shortly after. Morale broke and the Abyssal forces retreated. Finally the broken Celestian's Smile finally arrived on shore, with Joro's help however Diessa was unresponsive. | |||
