Lord Havok

The Day after Copied from the USN website

Nevyn!!!

Hail Tib what can I do for you???

I am getting everyone together for the meeting, though I must confess I am a little concerned about Fig....he's getting worse.

I cant bee there Tiberius, I still have to oversee the repairs to the Balance of Power,
and we cant seem to find some of the townsfolk. This war is becoming very costly my friend.
I hope that you Mel and Fig can talk them into joining us, god knows we need it what with BOC joining the Red Guard.

Nev...no one can ever say what the Orcs might do, But understand this the only thing thats got them to the table today is the fact that the USN told them we would take there backs.
Unless I can tell them that Guardians gate and the Royal Britanian Guard will back them in there struggles I doubt very much that we will be able to persuade them to join us.

You know I cant give you that Tiberius.

I know Nevyn, But just to put the thought into your brain...I don't see the Elves knocking down your door to help.

I will keep it in mind Tib, just try to bring us some help old friend.

I'll do my best Nev, as will Fig and Sara..but Nev..you need to know...I cant find Mel either.....

*sigh* Do your best Tiberius

Done.

As he walks from the wreckage of what was the Balance of Power Tiberius shook his head and
looked around. This once peaceful town nestled between a mountain and the sea, now a battlefield of many dead and more lost, that must now turn to the Orcs for help...help that
will cost...provided they will even consider it.

Seeing Saraliegh come out of the Taphouse ( the temporary town offices ) Tib called out to her.

SARA!!!

Sara looked around until she saw Tiberius. They met on the road..Sara..have you found Melantha??

No I am sorry Commodore but I have looked everywhere.

Ok is Fignut ready for this?

As ready as can be expected...I hope.

Me too...with the Loss of both Minerva and Melantha I am really going to need him.
However we need a 4th in there with us. All of the other Keepers are otherwise engaged aren't they?

I am afraid so Commodore.

Very well please help Fig get things ready. I need to go to Skara. I hope Emma is available...

Two hours later....

Ahh Commodore I see you found Emma.

God I hate Skara Brea..and yes I did find her. Is everything ready??

As ready as it can be....Tib...

I know Sara...ill keep an eye on him.

Emma Fignut will be sitting to my right and you will sit to my left, Sara will be sitting between us and the Orcs. These Orcs can be a little....unruly so watch yourself.

Ok...I will do my best Tiberius..but I have never done anything like this before.

I know Emma...just keep your eyes open. Ok lets go.

Ga'kuct! I am glad to see you well!! I am sorry but because my translators have either
turned up missing or are away on pressing duties I will have to ask you to please speak my tongue, I know this is an insult but I will do my best to make it up to you.

This meeting is not starting well Commodore, this language is not pleasant to speak.

All is Well Ga'Kuct..said Fignut..as you will see I believe we can all work together here
and come up with an agreement that helps both sides.

Fignut you are but old..we want the Royal Britianian Guards to help us in our war!!!

The Commodore can not give you that and you know it. I can say however if you come to our aid the discussion to back you will once again be discussed, but you must understand that
many of our people are elves..including my wife Saraliegh here.

And you and the Commodore are the only reason I do not kill her where she sits. Remove that Elvin stench from this room or we leave.

Now Gak...

No Fig...she is an elf and they are at war as are we...Sara if you would please...

I do not like this Lord Tiberius. I am the Assistant Keeper, and With Angus still recovering I at least should be here, this does involve Guardians Gate!!!

You are right Sara it does involve Guardians Gate..and as long as you remain these are allies we wont have...please I understand your reluctance but consider the innocent of GG who can not defend themselves.

Very well...but I do not like it.

With that Sara stood and left the room without a backwards glance.

Fignut..if you please

Of course. Now gentlemen what Tiberius is willing to offer is this..full backing from the USN..its ships and crews will be there for you.

Not enough!!!! We want

I cant give you the backing of the RBG...but what I can do..is turn and walk out of Pax Oku when this is over...take all the Shiniez you want, I'll not stop you

Hmm..me like AGREED!!!

KILL THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!

With that proclamation an explosion that rocked the foundation of the Navy's Headquarters knocked everyone to the floor as blood and bone flew everywhere. As the smoke cleared and Tiberius could once again see he found the ghost of Fignut standing beside him.

Emma?? you ok??

Yes Commodore..a little shaken but ill live.

Good. Ga'Kuct I..

No Humie!!! we came and a greed to help and you try to kill us!!! You will have no help from the Orcs!!! Now we leave!!

As the Orc contingent left Tiberius felt the familiar tingling that accompanies a resurrection.

I got him Tib...

Thanks Emma. Please go and find a chambermaid to clean this up will you??

Of course.

Fignut...

I know Lad...I am sorry. This Blackrock it getting worse..

I can tell. I wish we had the time to help you, but right now I am afraid I have to help everyone in this town.

As you see he made quit a mess. Said Emma

Yes this will take me all day to clean. *sigh*

Emma I am glad your back, I need to you go to talk to the Elves, I know there's some rogue factions, see if maybe some of them will come to our aid.

Yes Sir I will leave immediately. And she turned and walked out.

Tiberius, this was my fault and my responsibility. I will try to talk with them again. However I thought I would point out that there is a group who has not made a decision..

I am way ahead of you old man. I will be leaving within the hour.

Good luck Lad, Your going to need it. Fignut said to the Commodore's retreating back.....
