Empires of Ashes

"Depends if he takes stracia"

"If he takes Stracia then this place can be used as a bargaining chip, or he could just occupy it. The freed slaves would probably happily convert to your way of life and within a few years this city has the potential to grow into anything really. He loses nothing by keeping it, and will incur the wrath of the senate should he give it away"

"He takes stracia the senate will fall in love with him"

"No matter his popular someone is there will always be those who will attempt to discredit him"

"With the other consul on his side however?"

"I cannot say, but if he wishes to grant me this city I won't decline"

OOC: can ket interject here?

OOC: Ket is with Trajan

Mordred and thing are in a different place

Ic he shrugs

OOC: if you want silly, i have just the thing

"I wonder how Ket will react"

Ooc. Well, i was thinking rather silly, really. 
And gorath, theres not much to go on about. I got a mildly amusing character idea and thats it. Although if someone decided to RP a techpriest of sorts, it would add to the amusement factor

Hmmmm

"Do you want anything before I go?"

"Like what? I'm fine"

"Food, water...I don't know"

"Im fine"

"In that case you are free to do as you wish for the rest of the day. Unless we get attacked"

He nods
"Thanks"

*Mordred leaves*

....

*Can I do a thing?*

Oook

OOC: It involves catapults and mangonels and things of the throw burning things at walls variety

/A little later\


*A scout bursts into Trajan's quarters*

"What is it?"

"K-Kelthrovi siege party sir!"

*Rather large amounts of shouting emanate from the Prince's quarters as he reacts to the news, with loud footsteps following very quickly*

Ooc....how

OOC: By the power of Bushy being bored, the scouts missed a rather large siege party
I can delete the messages if you want to have something else happen

Ooc....how does one miss that till its at the goddamn gates

OOC: it's night right?
Plus depending on the siege engine they can have quite a long range

Considering that youd be a fool NOT to have sentriez posted throughout the nearby land for this exact reason

POC: Aha! I have an idea.

Give me a moment to edit the post

Edited

"From where? And how far?"

"From the south, our scouts must have missed an advance force. They're half an hour away by horse"

*The prince, now wearing a solid steel cuirass on top of his armour looks in*
"Kelthrovi siege warband are headed this way, I'm taking my cavalry out to harass them"

"Negative. Scout them, i need to know how large a force this is"

"Large enough to be a threat"

*He leaves*

OOC: Steam

"Mordred! You damn fool dont go in half cocked! You'll kill yourself!"

*his head pops back round the door*
"My scouts will be giving you constant updates, I am going to try and slow them down so you have time to man the walls and burn the towers."

"Fine."

*About 10 minutes later another scout knocks*

"Enter"

*Another Dracian scouts walks in*

"False alarm sir, it seems to be an advance group intent on attacking our scouts and drawing men out to engage"

"Ah. Despatch the light cavalry auxilia to box them in and harass them"

"I believe that is their intention sir"
