Extinction (Certain Death)

"Faith, Steel and Mana."
2136AC - Goldlight Order

Since the very start of the invasion, the Castle-City of Martyrs´ Vigil has remained quiet in comparison to its neighbours, not a single wagon of supplies or troops sent out of its reaches to the rest of the peninsula, yet it has not remained idle.

The silent workhorse that is The Order turned its full attention to the inevitable push south, with labourers and materials seen at work on the northern side of the Stronghold, while within it, practice drills intensify and smiths toil to forge armor, blades and magitech rifles.
And word spreads of a small fleet of vessels, having charted a course westward, towards the Bay of Tears.


Yet material expenses are kept seemingly veiled, in publicity, to those outside of The Order´s ranks, for the sake of this defensive doctrine, and only time would tell its true value.
The full focus was on preparing the City and its Ranks for the inevitable assault upon its walls, where not even the reports of an army marching towards Gloomlight would deter the effort - Until word of the repositioning of Fortune´s Fleet, northward.

The Guard was forced to adapt, with new deployment orders issued at last to deploy a Brigade to Gloomlight Grove, along the safe lines that connected both cities. For if the Western Wall that was the Aphrosian Grove fell, The Vigil would be surrounded.
One could only hope that the valiant Guard and Clergy of The Order would be enough to help hold the line - Where Guardsman and Overseer alike will bleed all the same, for the sake of Home and Family.
