Here it is, the play-by-play on the battle!
With an unprecendented Army, the brave citizens of Yliakum marched to defend their cities.
In the hills, the forces of darkness waited in strategical positions, ready to defend the will of the Shadow, and help it destroy Hydlaa and usher in see the so-called "Age of Balance".
Once organised, the Army of the free cities charged on the Valley of the Face. They were determined to make a way for the Party to reach the Stone Face for a chance to end the threat of Shadow in the Hills - at any cost! With deadly precision and overwhelming strength they crushed the monsters which the Shadow had summoned to defend the Stone Face. Morale was high, cheers could be heard from the troops.
But then - ambush! From all around the dark warriors of Yliakum fell on the Army. Blood and death was everywhere, as troops on both sides fell. The numbers of the Army of Light were great, but the Forces of Darkness were determined and strong. The battle raged for some time. Soon.. something strange started happening in the ranks of the Army of Light - screams for blood could be heard, against their own allies!
Expecting to see the Dark Forces continue their attack, they were faced instead with unexpected foes on every side. The Dark Forces laughed from the shadows as the Light Army began to tear itself apart. Only a handful of men left alive by the time the trumpet was sounded to retreat. The Dark Forces had been clever in their trickery, and despite of being heavily outnumbered by the Light Army, one might say victory was theirs that day.
Meanwhile, the 7 specialized members of the Party had managed to make their way, battered and bloodied, into the Stone Face. They descended through the decaying tunnels of the Funeral Well, and found their way to the portal leading into the Underdark. And so they entered. What became of them? Will they be able to close the portal leaking darkness into the Hills? Will the demonic invasion of Hyldaa be stopped? Yliakum holds her breath..
