The Scarlet Invasion

Swap everything related to the Alliance with Scarlets! Just to set the mood.


The following notice is hastily written.
MEMBERS OF THE SPINE!
We are in the hour of need!
The Scarlets have finally revealed their true intent - to engulf all of our beloved Kingdom in righteous flames of the accursed Light!
Andorhal fell a month ago, and the Arathi forces who have been keeping the ferocious hounds in check have finally withdrawn. The only thing halting the Scarlet Onslaught is US.
WE must prevent downfall, WE must make a stand and WE must make sure the Scarlets will never return to our beloved Kingdom!
Report to Professor Black for task assignment, though do not let your initiative halt you!
So far, we have established that:

• Koltira Deathweaver is alive, but missing! If he is found, we will gain a valuable asset in our defence and possibly our retaliation!
  
• The Argents of Hearthglen are trapped in everlasting assault from the Scarlets.
  
• There are no safe routes to the Eastern Plaguelands, as the Scarlets dominate every entrance, not to mention the infernal scouting parties and patrols - they are controlling the Western Plaguelands as if we never existed!

Now, there are various ways in which you can assist the cause. Look at the list below, and pick something which you think you could help with. When something has been accomplished, strike a line through the assignment and write your name(s) next to it, so you will be credited.

• The Bulwark needs to be reinforced if it is to withstand a Scarlet assault. Teorius Darkcast is leading the repairs here, speak to him.
  
• We are in need of soldiers to fight at the Bulwark. The only mass graveyard yet untouched is the one to the North, where the gnolls encroach. Acquire as many intact bodies as you can, and Professor Black will have them ressurected.
  
• Intelligence is sparse, so I urge all deathstalkers to conduct as much recon on the zone as possible. WORD OF CAUTION: If you are caught by the Scarlets, you will not be saved, unless exceptional circumstances - their presence is far too strong for us to make a heroic rescue.
  
• The existing handful of soldiers at the Bulwark are hopelessly understaffed and barely supplied. Make sure that they are prepared!
  
• We need to ship -many- resources to the Bulwark, both for reconstruction and resupplying. The Sepulcher has agreed to let us have as much as we need, and we have requisitioned three Ettins to help us with the transport. Speak to Chloe Nightdragon for more details!

If anything needs adding, add it. Everything could happen in the next few days.

Signed, N. Black.
