The mountains around the Citadel crawl with demons as Atrellya's approach becomes more clear. The forces of the newly risen Ruby Empire group begin to move as both the Ten's Citadel and Xuefeng begin to build defensive structures and settle in war camps. Within the port of the Citadel many shipwrights work away through both day and night, building a new fleet in preparation. But the docks are not busy with shipwrights alone.
From Dal'Thala troops arrive, the Shogun meeting with the Lumin King and agreeing to the exchange of soldiers for access to the expansive ports of the Citadel both leading up to the invasion and for some time after. Five naval squadrons hoisting their colors stand in the support of Gakaiyo.
From the west more arrive, the Ents are called into action by the creature dubbed by Meranthe as 'Monster', locally referred to as Chomei. Magical beasts and druids of the Sacred Coalition set up camp within the north, prepared to defend it alongside the warriors of the Aegis, Dal'Thala and the Ashigaru.
The Shogun along with a small group of trusted individuals have been seen loading supplies onto a ship for a quest to the east. They hope to return with further support from Sheng along with a trump card to turn the tides in their favor.
There are rumored talks of representative from the Republic showing up within Gakaiyo, but any current dealings have been turned away at the door.
