[KotZ]

"Almost there," Kiray mutters as she avoids Colt's special. She does as stated by the battle order.

[Palathadric]

"Yu Shu, I know you may not be too fond of doing so, but Healing Colt may help us out more than hinder us. It is a strange thing, but Guardian Angels often, from what I've noticed, seem to have an easier time sticking around when Healing is being done, oddly enough, especially when attempting to heal enemies, perhaps they know that their showing up will prevent the enemy from being healed."

Battle Order:

>Pretzel: Colt (Grand Potion)

>Samuel: Commander Colt

>Samuel: Commander Colt if no Damage Taken; If Guardian Angel Rolled, Blind Oko; If Damage taken, Heal Self

>Yu Shu: Seal Oko

>Yu Shu: Seal Oko, if Oko Sealed, Commander Colt (Dual-Hitting Oko), if Guardian Angel Rolled, See Later Action

>Kiray: If Oko Sealed, Oko (Heavy Flail); if not, Bella (Front Row)

>Pretzel: If Oko not targetted, Oko (Splinter Broom); Otherwise, Bella (Staff of the Necromancer, Front Row)

>Avery: If Oko Sealed and Blinded, Oko (Red Assassin's Dagger); Otherwise, Retrieve Dark Throwing Knife

>Yu Shu: Heal Commander Colt, if Willing, or Heal Hero with Lowest Health.

[Zepher]

OoC: 31 health deducted from Oko's health due to last round error.

"Between you and my brother I fear I'll never stop saying this. I'm not fool. Your plan has merit." She grins at Colt. "Hold tight, soldier."

Round Eighteen Angels and Conquerers Battle

>Pretzel uses a Grand Potion on Colt (+25 health)

Pretzel v. Bella - Critical Hit/Hit ([[13*2]+32]=58)

>Avery retrieves knife

>Yu Shu heals Commander Colt - Failure (Roll of 5)

Half-a-Hero - Success (Phoenix Essence - Crossbow Raised)

Healer - Success (Bella +41 health) Sealed

The battle continues largely in the heroes favor. Oko brings back a crossbow man, but the sly smile on Avery's face reveals his fate already.

Yu Shu and Samuel cut down Commander Colt, the longest suffering Commander in the entire Imperial Order. As he dies he thinks back on his life, his choices - how his father left the home when he was only twelve years old, how his mother became an expert hunter so that she could provide for him, and how she had sent him over seas five years later to the beautiful city of Eubric. Once there he had been shocked by the poverty and even by the Orcish slavery. There was so much darkness in the world. He took up to helping at soup kitchens, though he himself was only struggling by. Once there he met a young Paladin, a beautiful woman who taught him both about love and Ennoc. They married at twenty, surrounded by fellow soup kitchen volunteers. He mined the Paladin Order later that year. She bore him one child, who even now was nestled away safely in Eubric somewhere. Colt hoped that he would grow into a strong and noble man, one who perhaps did not take the path of his father, who found service some other way.

Colt's belif in Ennoc led him to do some research on the Order Imperial. It was scorned by his friends, but he saw merit in what they stood for. A strong united nation of the world under a God of Justice. Wasn't that what Ennoc stood for? Wasn't that what Ennon had once stood for? When Orcs invaded the High Kingdoms, Augustus had not looked after only his own people, but had rushed to the north to try to protect all citizens of the area. He knew that all humans were children of Ennoc. And even the Orcs, perhaps, could be taught Ennoc's way. It would be difficult, but surely he could do it.

Eventually a recruiter approached him. Stephen Colt joined up enthusiastically. Taking the noble path, he openly rejected the Paladin Order, refusing the recruiter's request that he serve as a spy. His wife was furious with him, but she understood his integrity. Serving in Eubric was alright. There was an occasional policy or two that he disagreed with, but the Order Imperial served the city - of this he was sure. He worked on numerous excavation sites, learning about the past - what evils were locked there. So many forgotten evils. If they did not serve as guardians against them, who would. He quickly rose through the ranks - he was well-liked by many, and gifted with a sword. More than anything, however, he was notable for defending his allies in combat, even though he had no angel of his own. He used his own body, shield, and skill.

Eventually news came that he would have to serve in the north. Only for a year, of course, but he still wept as he kissed his wife and daughter good bye. Once under service of Bella, he was shocked at her ruthless behavior. He had grown accustom to the Order's stance on Orcs - his own opinions he kept private, hoping for a brighter future when he could more openly share them - but she sent the Never Blessed (a horrifying man) to raid nearby villages. This is not what he thought the Order stood for. But he had only a year here, so he kept his head low.

When intruders burst into the war room eight months into his service, he had no choice but to fight. He may not agree with Bella, but she was his commander. And Oko - they had known each other in Eubric. The were-lion wanted a better future. Surely he, at least, should survive.

"Urk-" says Colt as Yu Shu rips through his armor, ribs, and heart. He dies instantly.

Avery and Pretzel double team Oko, who is barely able to defend himself. Yu Shu's angel descends, and the battle continues!
