Mazdak turned to his adjunct officers, seeing that the battle had already begun. 

"Sir, we've got reports that this demonic force has engaged the kobolds as well. Whatever it is, it's not on their side." 

Mazdak mounted his riding lizard and continued to speak, adjusting the saddle in preparation for a dash to the front lines. "Send word to all divisions to engage the enemy, but do NOT attack the kobolds unless attacked by them first. For now, we've got to deal with this unexpected foe, and any help is welcome, even if it may be coincidental." He kicked his spurs claws against the lizard's sides and he was off. 

Adykon teleported in with Aerta and Ophion. Kara and Smith were still at the farmhouse and had yet to catch up. He didn't have long before a group of dracon swordsmen ran past him. They locked shields and began to slowly advance on the enemy, which ran straight into their lines. The monstrosities different greatly in size, shape, and abilities, but most were easy to harm with a sword or spear. Mages from behind the lines began peppering the enemy ranks with fireballs and lightning bolts, but these seemed to have less impact than the soldiers. 

For his part, Adykon leapt into the fray directly, chopping at a grotesquely long-necked abomination which still had traces of its former life as a kobold evident in its elongated head. A strange black liquid sprayed from the severed head, forcing Adykon to leap back, lest it touch him. Aerta continued to launch bolts of pure arcana at the enemy lines, magical projectiles which resembled curved diamonds of teal-colored light accented with a pure white center. They inflicted some damage on the enemy, but not a great deal. Fortunately, this had been a test on her part to see how resistant to magic these beings were. Unfortunately, they were quite resilient against spells. Not immune, though. Indirect means would be needed for the mages to make a significant difference to the battle as it was.
