The Remembrance Of Terror

The Consequence Of Ignorance.

Belarus' goal of traveling into the field of sorrow is to consume the souls that wonder there into his ascension ritual. Belarus' cult is larger then we could have ever imagined, the cult has dug it's sphere of influence in the Erissian Imperium and great house coalitions. The promise for change for Evantris leads many to Belarus and his "promise" for a new world order. The "Primordial Ascensionists" have recurited tens of thousands from across the world under the leadership of Belarus. The corruption of the world led to one major event that no world power could expect... the invasion of the "Field Of Sorrows".  

Information On the Invasion

The party travels back to "Fort Aston" and the fort is in dissary. The colonels of the fort can be seen beckering orders to their captians and subsequently their soldiers. The fort seems to be preparing for something unknow to the party. When entering the fort you see the entierity of the fort's garrison lined in formation with a tall human man in a Errisian Generals uniform. This man is named General Umber and addresses the entierity of the garrison of Fort Aston and the party in the breaching of the walls surrounding the "Field of Sorrows".   Winston Belarus issued an urgent calling of his followers to gather in "The Fallen Woods" to prepare for the assault on the forts surrounding the "Field of Sorrows". This army consists of hundreds of thousands cultists coming from all backgrounds, magical or not. The main army generals consists of Belarus' spawn of vampires. This army surprised the lack-luster garrison of the walls containing the "Field of Sorrows" since no-one ever thought an attack would occur to break-in to the field, only attacks to break-out. The cultist army gathered their most powerful sorcerors to bring down the walls and then stormed their infantry into the field. Few survivors of the garrison made it out of the walls alive, this is a horrific loss to the world powers with not even a tenth of the 50,000 garrison surviving.    

The War to Come.

 

Goals of Belarus

  The main goal of Belarus is to consume the souls of all the dead inside the "Field of Sorrows" into his grand ritual. The ritual needs to have 5 strategic areas for the runes of spell to be placed. Due to the grand size of this ritual, the area between the runes encapsulats most of the "Field of Sorrows". Winston Belarus plans to wake King Nylian from his slumber and unleash this corrupted version onto the world. With King Nylian, Belarus can gain legitimacy and support of the 18 Elvish tribes to rally under his cause and reform the Ever-Life Kingdom. If Belarus' plans fail then he will attempt a full on attack on the Erissian center to charge out of the field. If Belarus escapes then his cultists will seal the wall behind them leaving the Erissian army trapped inside.  

Erissia's Strategy

  Erissian forces are attempting to control the battle fields of the "Field of Sorrows". The Erissian generals are currently training up their militia to prepare an invasion of the field. Multiple mercenary contracts have been sent out to mercenary guilds across the world to work as "Honorary Erissians" for the Erissian army. The main strategy for Erissia is to slowly control key strategic points across the field in order to prevent the cultists from creating the runes needed to summon the ritual. Multiple Erissian generals are leading the Erissian army of 100,000 with General Umber being designated as the "Emperor's Pride" meaning he is the head general. The Erissian army is poorly put together with many of the troops being conscripted only months before the war. This means that will Erissia has the numbers advantage, most of the Erissian troops have never seen combat. Erissia is unaware of Belarus' other motives and thinks this is invasion is soely to consume souls.  

Tides of War

The war occuring in the "Field of Sorrows" is a ever changing war which either side can win. The tides of war depends on the losses each side takes, the strategic points each side holds, and the choices of the party. At the beggining of the war each side starts at 0% war score and depending on the events happening in the war, can change.
