The elven army approached The Grey Mountains with confidence. They believed they had finally cornered the orcs. They were wrong. The Overlord, knowing that this battle would end in a swift and brutal victory, decided to turn his attention elsewhere. Uaziezuhr was busy bringing in slaves and messenger imps from his daemonic acquaintances. With the slaves working on the defenses, the elves would at the very least meet some token resistance should they somehow make it to the fortress, and once the elves had been dealt with, the slaves could then restore the fortress to its former glory. The Overlord then cast his sight upon Bastian. His servants were beginning to do useful things, and had salvaged their master a rusty iron shield from 1 of the decorative suits of armor. But the King of Kings was still having trouble with them. 1 of his servants had even thrown herself to her...to her...Something was wrong here. Something was very wrong here. The woman had thrown herself off a cliff and most likely onto sharp and pointy rocks that rested at the bottom. Death should have been instantaneous, but somehow she was as alive as she was unharmed. [b][color=black]"Impossible!"[/color][/b] The Overlord exclaimed, causing the throne room to shake. "What ever is the matter, Master?" asked The Overlord's goblin servant as he polished his master's armor. [b][color=black]"We have a problem"[/color][/b] The Overlord replied. Before The Overlord could explain further, Calemvir entered the throne room. [b][color=black]"This is our comeback, Calemvir"[/color][/b] The Overlord said when the dragon asked what was happening [b][color=black]"And problems are already springing up. I'll explain everything when the battle is over and the other lieutenants return"[/color][/b] The elven army entered The Grey Mountains through The Black Fortress Pass. Once they were far enough away from the entrance, Skraal and his Deathguard landed there to cut off the elves escape. Believing it would be a tactical advantage, elven archers scaled the cliff sides on both sides of the pass to rain arrows down upon. Once the archers where up high, Serikul's spiders ambushed them. The elven archers attempted to shout down to their comrades to warn them of the ambush, but The Overlord - prompted by his habit of helping his favorite lieutenant - magically silenced their voices. When they were all dead, lich magic made the archer's into zombies that began to fire upon the elves below. As they sheltered under their shields from the rain of arrows, Ukdur and his army of orcs Leeroy Jenkinsed the elves. Soon enough, elementals summoned by the orc shamans arrived and the elven forces retreated into the deathly embrace of Skraal's Deathguard. Needless to say, not a single elf survived. [b][color=black]"Our 1st victory is claimed"[/color][/b] The Overlord's voice said from withing the minds of every lieutenant not in the throne room [b][color=black]"But another problem has arisen. Return to me, there is much to discuss"[/color][/b]. [hr] The battle is over, but another problem has arisen.
