[Fyros] The Empire's Shield: The Thesos stockpile Robbery (2019-10-25) - EVENTS

#1 Added by Ghost of Atys 5 years ago Multilingual

Bending over her desk, Ibiritis Ibirus studied the plans of the future ramparts of Thesos. The work was progressing well and the strategist was beginning to regain hope. After all these years, the work had resumed and the construction phases followed one another without too many clashes. A first incursion had damaged the first phase of the construction site, but the marauders had not reappeared aroud Thesos since.

Ibiritis made her mind wander on the colours of the old map painted on the wood. Things were definitely looking good. The strategist could rest and let herself slip into some reverie.

“Gladumakos? Strategist?”

Ibiritis looked up at the soldier who had just come in.

“Yes Thecaon?
— A message from our spies, Gladumakos. There would be movement among the Marauders. Chei...” The soldier reread the note. “...Pui-Yan is gathering the Clans. Apparently he would send them here to harm the ramparts construction site.
— akep Thecaon. I will go to Pyr as soon as possible to ask sharükos for some troops to reinforce Thesos. Does the spy specify when the attack will take place?
— Well... it would be imminent Gladumakos. In fact, according to the spy, the Marauders should already be here.”

Ibiritis Ibirus jumped up.

“detal! And you couldn't begin with that?! Tell the soldiers to gather around! And tell Lykidix to regroup all the Patriots he will find in Thesos. No, not just the Patriots. He must bring all those who do not wear a marauder armor in front of the ramparts! gey-gey-zakün!!”

As the imperial soldier stormed out of the fortress, Ibiritis grabbed her heavy Stavon sword. Never rest, never daydream.

“ramèch!”

Ibiritis Ibirus was more than satisfied overall.

With the handful of defenders she had been able to gather following the warning of her spies, they had managed to thwart the Marauders in their attempt to plunder the site.

Unable to recover their packers, the Marauders clans had left them behind, as well as the cargo that their mektoub-driver had somehow managed to load into the bags.

But the Clans had not withdrawn until they had been able to inflict serious damage on resources: oil and sap escaping from crushed jars and now impregnating the sawdust, crates of wood overturned and their contents shattered to pieces.

Despite her invective - or perhaps because of it, she thought - the damage report was slow to come, which was not a good omen. She may need to call on the patriots again to quickly compensate for the losses. Or even worse... begging for the help of the Barkers.

However, something more worrying was on her mind: the presence at the head of the marauders of this giant homin - probably a zorai given his size and his dragging gait - entirely concealed under a red armor. She had never seen him before. But she had heard a lot about him.

Akilia Storm of Ashes' second in command, The Scarlet, was back.

- … Ibiritis ?

Le visage cramoisi, la mâchoire serrée, Ibiritis Ibirus leva des yeux brillants de colère vers son interlocuteur.
- Ces conditions sont inacceptables, Gramald. Comment peuvent-ils espérer que je donne mon accord ?
- Ils nous savent dans le besoin...
- Je vois ça, merci ! Mais c’est hors de question.
- Dois-je te rappeler que le sharükos s'imp…

Iribitis abattit violemment son poing sur la table.

- le sharükos n’est pas le seul à s’impatienter !

Gramald Xarius soutint le regard d'Ibiritis, mais ne montra aucune autre réaction à la véhémence de la stratège.
Il valait mieux laisser passer l’orage. Après quelques minutes d'un lourd silence, il reprit d’une voix calme:

- Dois-je informer la tribu des Percécorces que nous rejetons les termes de leur offre ?

Ibiritis considéra ses options. L’académicien avait raison. Ils étaient pris à la gorge. Toutefois…

- Non, essaie de temporiser. Adressons-nous d’abord aux patriotes. Nos besoins ne sont pas si énormes, si ?
- Une poignée de volontaires motivés pourrait sûrement parvenir à rassembler ce qu’il nous faut en un temps raisonnable, mais...
- Très bien. Fais une proclamation en ce sens. Si je peux éviter de recourir à Pebus Ibiraan, je ne m'en porterai que mieux. Et Gralmald…
- Oui ?
- Prévois large. Qu'on en finisse !
- Evidemment !

Gramald Xarius adressa un sec hochement de tête à la stratège et prit congé.

Le soir même des affiches apparaissaient dans tous les lieux de rassemblement de l’Empire.

Patriotes, Amis de l’Empire,

La dernière attaque des maraudeurs à Thesos a sérieusement entamé les réserves de ressources du Bouclier de l’Empire, ce qui empêche le lancement de la construction du tout dernier rempart.

Une fois encore, le sharük demande votre concours afin de rassembler les matériaux nécessaires pour achever le dernier ensemble de tours.

Voici la liste des matériaux requis :

- Fagot de choix du désert, Motega ou Tama, qualité 200 ou supérieure : 20 000
- Sève de choix du désert, Visc ou Silverweed, qualité 200 ou supérieure : 5 000
- Huile de choix du désert, qualité 200 ou supérieure : 15 000
- Peau de timari, qualité 150 ou supérieure : 2 500
- Ligament de varinx, qualité 150 ou supérieure : 4 000

Ces matériaux seront à remettre à Aemodon Apotis, au pied de la forteresse de Thesos.

Sharük Pyrèkud !
