Lumino was lying on the ground, the javelin still protruding from his wounded leg. When sudennly, he heard a voice from above him that cut through the silence of battle. "Hey! Come on, your not dead! Get up and fight, people need your help!" But...I can't move..It hurts so much...if I could only reach...He willed his hand to move, his coordiantion was shaky at best, but his hand did find it's way to his pouch, where he pulled out his Vulnerary, and ripped off a chunk. He didn't have much left, but this should do. Whiping the magical herb over his leg, he felt his strength returning, and saw the wound miraculously close. Everything came into focus, and he saw who had called to him, the cavalier who was protecting him, he looked up to see her put her lance through a soilder's head. She looked back at him quickly. (OOC: sdb.drshnaps.com/sound/TogetherWeRide.wav)"If you can't help, then just get out of combat! Your just gonna get yourself killed!" Can't help? But I can help...I want to help...She started to ride away, and he called out. "W-Wait! I'll go with you! I'll fight!" She smiled at him. "Well then step up! There's work to do!" "Right!" He nodded in agrement, following her into the battle.

Our fight hadn't gone unnoticed on the ground. From several positions the air cavalry was attacked by arrows and fireballs. Vaida charged to a concentraton of archers to keep her soldiers save and I walked right into it. An arrow hit me. 'Idiots! I'm on... You side.' I fell off Grimbolds back. Another Wyvern Rider, quite out of his reckoning yelled 'MAN DOWN!' and caught me. The Wyvern Rider flew to a save distance and Grimbold, also not knowing what was going on followed.

"great, things are going f**k**g beautifully," Matthias cursed. Turning from the disappointment which had been Alan's fight, he noticed a dragon barreling towards him. "Holy shi..." He also noticed the wyverns. Shouting, he shot at the wyverns, bringing two down before the whole contingent flew over his head. quickly, he glanced down. Several of the troops were performing better than the standards. If they could group together... He barked an order for the archers to continue firing, and charged down the stairs. He was close enough to the mages...

As he approached the mages, he bumped into someone. Cursing, he fell backwards a few steps, before noting who it was. "You're that damn kid from before!" he yelled, shoving the young man. "Dammit, fine, if you're going to be here, stick with me." He noticed the wounds on the boy's body, and handed him his new vulnerary. "Get healed, then we're going to break to join the mages."

Darting through the sky, Lyndsey had no time to pay attention to where she was heading. She noticed a wyvern rider, and managed to get her lance out in time to tear his wyvern's wing. As she moved away from him, she ran into something... large. Craning her head, she saw that her pegasus had managed to collide with a dragon. Thankfully, the beast hadn't knocked her out of the sky. The question remained, whose side was it on? Heck, she didn't even know which side she was on. Desperate, she pointed to the Ostian castle, hoping to at least confuse the beast. Anything was better than getting eaten.

Alexia's decision to escort the young mage had proven to be a good one. Like many, he just needed a little encouragement. Their charge had positioned them fairly close to the other mages. Grinning, she turned to the young man. "Keep it up! Aim for the monks, keep them off the shamens," she pointed at the targets. Her gaze went to Ryan, the other cavalier. Remembering him from their training, she moved closer to him. As she arrived, she thrust her lance through another soldier. "We've got to keep these mages safe!" she yelled, thrusting again at another soldier. As she called, she noticed Matthias and a boy coming closer. Apparently, he had some sort of plan...

As she fought, she noticed Brad, who had a deep gash in one arm. "Brad, use this!" She called, tossing the shaman her vulnerary. The distraction caused a lance to hit her, but it skidded off her armor. Growling, she turned and skewered the soldier's neck. They just needed to hold off till Matthias and the boy made it.

The young wyvern rider layed Alan down in the forest near the town of Ostia. 'Are you okay?' But he was answered with a punch in the face. 'What the-!' Alan kicked him down and took his lance and thrust it into his chest. 'Sorry mate, but I don't have time for babysitting anymore. OFF WITH YOU!' I yelled turning to his wyvern. The beast left after yelping at me and I mounted Grimbold. 'Uurgh, that arrow got me good.' I grimaced while I pulled it out. I remembered that I still had vulenary's. 'Well good as new, sort of.'

His voice echoed over and over in his head.
This is war, this is war. No prisoners. We are all fighting for our lives.
No matter how hard he thought it, he still had trouble believing it. No matter how many times he felt the fire flow from his fingers, he still felt the pang of conscience that he was killing people.
Murderer
But what about the people in the town? What about the people he was saving, that couldn't fight for themselves? They would be murdered if he didn't do something. And right now, all he could do was fight his own people. War was truly a living hell...
He walked with the Cavilier, towards the ally she had pointed out, a Sniper it looked like. How much longer must this go on? Why won't it end? Endless fields of bodies seperated the 100 feet between them, and the battle was still raging. How many had to die? The adrenaline kept him going, but he felt the battles wear on his heart.

"Thanks Alexia" Brad said as he took her vulnerary and poured the fluid onto his arm, his wound healed quickly and automatically, Brad wondered how that happened, what kind of magic did that? Luckily he snapped out of his trance in enough time to dodge a fire. Brad saw a new flank of mages coming in to help these ones, those mages however did not carry the little red fire tomes but rather the yellow thunder tomes, much more powerful. Although he couldn't use it yet he tried anyway, Brad pulled out his Luna tome that he recieved in Sacae and yelled LUNA. The tome didn't work properly and instead expelled a smokescreen of sorts instead of it's proper use. The enemy mages coughed and were flinging spells around everywhere, they killed off several of their own before the smoke cleared up. "Wow, that worked better than I expected" Brad said as he cast a Flux spell towards one of the enemy mages.

Ryan looked at who he was with, his lord Jason, a young mage and a woman he knew from somewhere but just couldn't put his finger on it. "Back to the battle Ryan" he said to himself, he looked around and saw some mages were still standing, he thrust his lance into the head of one of the mages with a yellow book, the mage screamed as he died at the end of a lance, he wasn't ready to die yet but that didn't matter, he had to die, this was war.

Dray'Gon grinned as two more wyverns were taken down. That left two more. Still he wasn't sure if fighting back would be wise. If he drained his stone completely, he'd have a harder time getting back to Arcadia, to recharge it. Dray'Gon then began to think about home, and what would his family and friends think of what he was doing.
He snapped out of it when he flew into a Pegasus Rider. Momentarily stunned, Dray'Gon looked at the Pegasus Rider, who seemed to look familiar. She pointed to the castle, which Dray'Gon didn't seem to follow, but when he noticed the Wyvern Riders gaining on him, he decided to head back to the castle... the Pegasus Rider would have to wait.
Dray'Gon neared the castle once more, and tried to weave around the structure even closer than last time. He'd prefer to lose both of them, but if he even lost one, he could probably take him out, and still remain in dragon form... he hoped.
Passing by many towers, and ducking under a few bridges, Dray'Gon managed to lose one, but just as he did, he cut a turn too close, and his wing hit a tower. He lost his balance and plummetted to the ground... and then everything went black.

The city had succesfully been evacuated but more Bern units came use the extra room. They were origanally intended for the burning of the palaca and the rape of Ostia but seeing that things were going ill they were thrown into the fray.

Matthias had drug the thief, and both arrived where the mages had gathered. By now, a substantial amount of the greater warriors were also there. Calling out to any who would pay attention, Matthias outlined his plan. "We need to form a strike force. This is going to be exhausting, and we're not going to get anywhere if we keep bashin' our heads against each other. I'm takin' any who will go with me, an' we're gonna force our way through that," he pointed at the mass of Bern troops. "We should be able ta make it ta the leaders. Once they're outta the picture, the others should retreat, an' this will all be over." He looked at any who could hear, many of which were still battling. He hadn't been idle either, placing a few well aimed shafts into enemies. As he spoke, he noticed the dragon spiraling earthward. "Alexia, get a group together, and get him back up! Then, back us up!" he ordered, waving his arm. "We need to do this quick, or there's gonna be a helluva lot more bodies!"
