at ease brave Knights of Wiltshire
i have called you here today in the HQ of the Wiltshire Army
be course of the actions that have happened in Chester county

the legal elected council of Chester county has been with force removed from there offices and replaced with a rebel council
this is something that never can be allowed to happen
they also have a army of rebels inside Chester city

Combat team 001 as of now you go into active duty

before you go i have something for you
you have served KoP very well for this you can select out of my stable
for the duration of this mission each a horse

all other Knights keep a eye open for troublemakers
it is possible that other rebels will take advantage of that England sends a lot of forces towards Chester county

good luck to you all return save and may Jah be with you
now go brave Knights and make me and the rest of England proud
and show those rebels that England is not afraid of them
you are all dismissed

it was a few days ago now that she and other Knights where called into the HQ of The Wiltshire Army

since then had they selected a horse and loaded it up with food and weapons
some maps of England and a list with contact addresses

now they where just outside Stafford city on a hill
taking a god look at the area they soon would enter Chester county

Meanwhile, in the northern of England - Cumberland, Marshal Elmix and Marshal Elson received the news from a traveler, they were shock.

The sat down at the tavern and have a short discussion.

"We must riase our flag and march to Chester. There is no time to loss." Said Marshal Elmix

"Agreed, you get stared with the army while I go and see Grand Master AiSafe. We shall sound the Phoniex Horn and rally all our knights to free Chester." Replied Marshal Elson

2 days later, when Marshal Elson returned from KoP castle, Marshal Elmix's army is ready, Marshal Elson meet up with Marshal Elmix again.

"I had spoken to GM AiSafe and drafted the knight order, I will send it out now and get ready to fight for England."

Ama wanders the market of Preston, and cannot help overhearing the talk amongst the people. She listens for a moment, then her face begins to turn red, her jaw clenches...mumbling a thank you to the baker, she takes her supplies and makes her way back to the encampment. Taking the long way, she burns off some of her anger at the intimidation the WoS were using on the people...

When she finally arrived, she made way to her tent, quickly stashing her supplies. It was time to prepare...donning her sword, she drew it from its sheath and inspected it carefully from tip to hilt. Seeing the etching, she closed her eyes and quietly prayed, then slid the sword into its sheath at her side...

With a deep sigh, she makes some tea and with cup in hand decides to take a walk outside...

Leana sat beside the fire warming her hands against the flames as the banners of the fourth division flapped against the breeze. Her stomach was tied in knots, though that was more a result of the baby than of nerves; she had faced worse things than a pack of wolves.

Dairwynn's ears perked at the thought. "Not real wolves, love. Just a pack of criminals." She scratched the gray wolf behind the ears, settling her with a few soothing thoughts. 

Overhead, the stars winked down upon her, brighter and clearer than anything she remembered from home. The wolf shifted, lying her head in Lea's lap, the stars reflecting in her own dark eyes. 

Wolfmist moved from the fire and gave a cup of hot tea to Leana, settling next to her and tickling Dairwynn behind the ears.

"We have marched long and hard. Are you ready for the fray, love?" Wolfmist asked her, now putting an arm around her shoulders, fiddling with a lock of her hair. He took a sup of tea from his own cup and looked up at the mighty stars above.

"Is anyone ever really ready for battle?" she asked, taking a slow sip of tea and sighing as it began to relieve her unsettled stomach. "Thank you." Leana settled comfortably against his side and laughed quietly as Dairwynn groaned in satisfaction, her eyelids drooping closed. "at least the pups aren't getting into trouble." She added, pointing out the mass of snoring gray fur just visible in the underbrush.   

Wolfmist sniggered, "aye, I am thankful they haven't torn up my boots on this particular march. How old are they now?"

Leana winced, remembering the evening Carl had torn up a pair of Wolf's good boots. Then it had been deemed that the pups were too old to remain in the castle and had been fixed up a den just beyond the groundskeeper's cottage. "Almost five months, I would say."

She finished her tea, thinking of how fast time had passed. Somehow she had progressed from an awkward teenager to an adult. Smiling, she reached forward and cupped a bit of the fire into her palm, forming it into various shapes.  

"Five months... they are getting big too..." Wolfmist stared at the furry lump in the bushes. "Get Dairwynn to bring them closer to the fire. Despite my boots, they are quite lovable."

Wolfmist looked up again at the stars. He tried to read them, to get any hint of the outcome of the battle. Nature seemed to be keeping her cards close to her chest these days. "The stars are beautiful tonight."

With a whisper of a breath the flames in her palm flew back into the camp fire. *Dairwynn, Love, bring the pups closer to the fire* She emphasized the thought with a slight push. "Yes, they're growing like weeds, or so my grandmother would say." she said, yawning as she stretched. It was a sudden feeling of lethargy that refused to leave.

One by one the puppies were nudged awake by their mother and brought over to the fire. By then, of course, they were awake and renewed in energy. Lea found herself immediately buried under a mound of hyper hair.  

Wolfmist started laughing and picked up each cub, setting them down on the ground by the fire with a single finger telling them to stay, rewarded with a bit of meat when they did so. Wolfmist got up, something about his legs clicking with wear and tear, age and much travelling. Slowly, trying not to grunt in effort, he got the blankets from the saddle packs and started tucking Leana into her sleeping roll and snuggled up close to her, the pups now lying on them like wriggling hot-water bottles.

"Sleep well, babe."

Wolfmist looked over to the other soldiers gathered around here and there, some keeping sentry. It would be Wolfmist's and Leana's turn at keeping watch later in the early hours. He wasn't sure but, while letting his head rest next to Leana's and Dairwynn's, he thought he saw the silhouette of a General Elmix wandering about, apparently thinking hard.

"I remember doing that up in Scotland," Wolfmist mumbled to Leana, nearly dropped off to sleep.

they had looked at the road ahead for a while

they had heard that the robber Scotwho with some friends was in the area also the robber Gruloc was in the area and he was probley not happy since he just failed to take over Stafford city with a election
with 0 votes for him and all for the sitting mayor

they practised the move against a robber that they learned when they got there horse
take out there staff point it at the robber and speed up and never slowdown what ever happens
it was hard at first riding with just one hand but soon they got better at it and could ride real close together and fast and could do it left and right handed
so that the robber would get the staffs or would be over run by the horses
if he did not go out of there way

they rested for a while and then took the road to Beeston to seek the army there
much to there surprise they found a empty army camp
it was abanded and there where no signs of a fight

Leana rode near the rear of the line, keeping an eye on the cubs as she in turn scanned the surrounding lands for bandits and enemy scouts. The afternoon air was fresh and clear from the back of Charlie, her sword and shield secure to the saddle. It put her in quite a light-hearted mood despite what they rode toward. "Boys, this is how you make mischief." She whispered to the rowdy pups as two wrestled their way across her path. She snapped a thin dead branch from a tree overhead, thanking it for its supplying her needs. Snapping it into equal sized sections about the length of her pinky finger, she took aim and lobbed one stick at Wolfmist's back, then immediately turned her head away as if she were looking at a particularly interesting tree.    

Wolfmist was riding ahead, letting Knight follow the train of warriors naturally while he polished his sword. Suddenly he felt something his the back of his head and filtering his hair through his fingers he felt a twig. He looked back and saw Leana looking around. He shrugged and wondered if it was her that threw it, or maybe a bird above dropping it from a nest.

He went back to caring for his armour while they marched and thought vaguely about dinner later. "Leana?" he called back, "think you get Dairwynn to catch a rabbit for us?"

Lea narrowed her eyes, though she sought out Dairwynn's mind with her own. The wolf was nosing through a shallow stream rooting up weeds to catch fish. *Think you could catch a couple rabbits, Love.* She cringed. She'd never quite got used to hunting and missed the convenience of refrigerators and supermarkets.

"You clean it!" she yelled back, tossing another stick in his direction; however, it glanced off a branch and struck Elmix's helm.   

After 3 days of marching, the army finally arrived in Preston. The Marshals decided to stop and camp until other knights to arrive and join the army.

Marshal Elson scout around the camp in the night to make sure that everyone need in the army are being taken care off and the security of the camp are in place.

At the same time, he is looking for his wife - Tasite, the lady who he missed for a long time. Someone told him that she is in the army as well.

Debie came back from the town of Beeston to the abandoned army camp
and had a young scots men with her
she just had a meeting with the local leaders of the resistance
one of them Inka2 had asked her to give Elmix her greetings

they do just like the others in the other towns every thing to make it the invaders as difficult as possible

they stopped working in the mines as much as possible
stopped taking government jobs
stopped sending flodder to the illegal government

they refused the give back a large amount of goods that the legal government was able to hide in the town just before they where forced out of there offices

and are defending the town against attacks from people that are supporting the illegal government

and will keep doing that until help to deal with the rodents will arrive

the scot was willing to fight for Chester but had no way of getting to the army in Holywell so she took him with her to the camp
and will bring him with her to the army to see if he can be of any help

he will start by being her guide in these for her unknown parts of England

Tastie had been traveling with her brother Novaphoenix and lovely niece Ellyria through England for what seem like some well needed fun and to see old friends and make new ones.

She was sitting in a tavern when a young man came in looking for Under Marshal Tastie Ming.. For once she was not dress as a knight but as a woman and very happy for that.. For she could blend in with the crowd. Tastie sat in her corner watching the young page go from person to person looking for her. Giggling she wonder why he would come for her… was it that she looked young or that she was young, she never knew but it was funny to see. Stand she moved towards the young man and smiled.

Why is it you went to almost every other woman here except me or my niece.

You two don’t look like any knights I ever seen he said …

Smiling.... Thank you much but I am she you’re looking for as she took the letter from... Looking over at Nova, she spoke again.. Well brother you have the money pay the young man for his troubles and that wonderful complement he give your baby sister and niece as she retook her seat. Damn it she said as she read the letter. Standing she handed the letter to Nova. I guess this mean our travels are over for now.. We can drop Elly off at home on the way to Marshal Elmix's Army.

After a few day of riding to drop off her niece, Tastie and Novaphoenix finally made contact with Marshal Elmix's Army after join platoon master James group.

after a days ride they pass a camp of the Lancaster Home Guards seeing that it getting dark now fast and Preston is still a long way

they ask for permission to stay in the camp for the night
with out and problem they get it

after many hours sitting at a campfire with the guards sharing story's and ale they go to bed

the next day they thank the guards for there warm welcome and then continue there ride to Preston
on arriving there they see a couple of Armed Retinue's marching to the army camp



they join at the back of it and then ride into the camp



when they reach the camp they report to Marshall Kulles

Their tent was pitched upon that field, the walls of Manchester rising over the tree tops. It was a special place for Leana, for it was here that she had found herself changed. She was no longer the awkward girl that had unwittingly teleported backward in time. However, briefly she wondered if she might find the creep that had stolen her backpack. "That will have to wait until you've slept." 

Exhaustion had taken her quickly. She had barely enough energy to eat with her head up. "Think I might turn in early. Wake me when our watch is up." she said to her husband as she stood. 

"This is going to kill me, I know it." she muttered as she pulled back the tent flap and slipped inside. Dairwynn curled up beside her, though her ears were perked to the sound of her cubs playing in the camp. 

Ama wandered through the camp at dusk, a long day of travel and training behind her. She paused to stretch her back, her body growing strong from the travels that started as a "vacation" some time ago. Watching the goings on, preparations for what was ahead, seeing familiar faces...she smiled...giving help when it was needed was one thing that made life worth living...

As she looked up, she saw Another...Aise was making his way to her. Holding his gaze, she smiled softly and went to meet him...gently slipping her hand in his, they walked together as the sun set, whispering quietly to each other as they went...
