-=Adventure Zero - The Fall=-

Our Story Begins in the Gatehouse City outside of Silver Moon Citadel. It is a cool Summer night and the Irregulars are getting some much needed rest after returning from the Dread Desert on a successful contract. Another Day or so and the Contact would arrive to pay for the artifact and then the Irregulars could set off for Home to take on another Mission.

Alm lay in his bed at the Inn half asleep, his window open to let in the cool air and fill the room with the quiet meanderings of the city outside. But in the peace of night an odd sent made its way into the room Alm almost instantly shot up as the word "Orcs" left his mouth. In an instant Alm was up getting ready for battle and by the time the alarm bell started to ring he was already out the door of the Inn racing to meet the Orc's in combat. As for the Others their sleep would be interrupted by this bell which would put the entire city into a state of frenzy. Civilians made their way to the Gatehouse for protection while Knights funneled out of the gatehouse to aid and protect the civilians  while they fled.

As the rest of the Irregulars were stirred and got themselves ready they would be stopped by Jing before leaving the Inn. After they were all gathered, minus Alm, Jing started to give his orders. "[color=f26522]Alright everyone from what Stephan was able to find out, the City is under attack by Orcs lots of them. And Although Alm is an Idiot for running off on his own... He has his heart in the right place. So were going to go assist the Knights in the evacuation of the civilians. Xia, Freir you two go find Alm and help him,[/color]" "[color=gray]The Idiot is fighting in the western district, seems the orcs broke through the wall there[/color]" Stephan broke in for a moment. "[color=f26522]Right, Volux, Arden, Sara, you three head to the East district and help out as you can. If they broke in on the west its only a matter of time until the same happens in the East.[/color]" Jing continued. "[color=f26522]As for Myself, Shion, and Gwen we will head north to the main gate and assist there. Now Stephan, I know you don't "work for free" so go take that artifact and find the buyer meet up with us in three days in the village of Blackrock, from there we will go over our options. Remember everyone we are not here to win a war today, we are just here to cover the escape of civilians. We will come back to win this war when we are actually getting paid for it.[/color]" Jing joked for a second, "[color=f26522]Stay safe and remember if we get separated regroup at Blackrock Village, do not retreat into the Citadel we will be worthless trapped in there.[/color]" Jing gave the last bit of his speech before telling everyone to head out.

As the Irregulars left the Inn they could see how bad things were going to get, Fires were already starting to spread near the Walls of the City and still a strong stream of panicked civilians were trying to force their way to the gatehouse. The sounds of Battle now echoed into the streets and although the Knights were holding of the Orc attack for now there was no telling how long it would last.
