Though dawn has come, darkness still reigns...

The moon hangs low on the horizon, as Arik the Sentinel looks out over the long icy field. It was a long night, hours and hours passed by as the dark grew deeper and visability became slim. However, the sun was rising. Or at least, it should have been.

He looked out over the tundra, and he saw something that chilled him to the bone. Hundreds, thousands, millions of Zombies of Morindan began to march towards the castle. High above them flew Shades of Bleakwoode, led by Runa the Kyrie Warrior. Heavy Gruts marched behind, twisted smiles on their faces, while Einar's Imperium stood ready to invade at any moment with their Empress, Kiova. Kee-Mo-Shi chanted, far behind, laughing maniacly at the blood soon to be shed. Arik looked around for his allies, only to see them all dead or dying. On the hill top behind them was Kaemon Awa and the Tagawa Samurai Archers. He suddenly felt a wave of hopelessness pass over him, when he saw something before him. Eldgrim the Viking Champion was charging into battle, alone.

His vigor renewed, Arik flew into the air and called out to his troops, "CHARGE! THIS DAWN IS ONE OF DARKNESS! WE MUST DEFEND THE CASTLE!" Sentinels began to swarm from the castle, shouting battle cries. And so, the war began...
