POOLS OF IRON
AS THE LEGION PRESSES TOWARD THE FORTRESS, ALRIC PREPARES HIS TRAP. |
Tuesday July 21, Rhi'anon
I am not a coward. I think that my actions over the last seventeen
years prove this. Yet I was relieved to not be among those chosen
to die.
In four hours, just after sunrise, the twenty-two hundred survivors
of the Legion will attack Balor's fortress. Those men will surely
die. There are perhaps half a million of the enemy between here
and the stronghold.
Alric left at dusk, alone. The old maps, he says, all show a World
Knot in Rhi'anon, though it has never been used in our time. He
intends to find it and bring through a hundred picked men to a
point he believes will be almost on top of the fortress. From
there we go after Balor.
We have watched a dim comet grow brighter each night until now
it is visible by day, and at night brighter than the moon. Some
of the men have taken it as an omen for ill, but only the next
few days will tell.
Before he left, Alric told us that Madrigal had fallen. |

Go to the Field Guide Entry documenting this level's easter eggs and points of interest with
pictures.
Mission Objective: Lead Alric to the nearby World Knot, where he will bring through
the rest of your force. Then head for Balor's fortress, west,
across the lake. |

"In four hours, just after sunrise, the twenty-two hundred survivors
of the Legion will attack Balor’s fortress. Those men will surely
die. There are perhaps half a million of the enemy between here
and the stronghold."
These men are looking quite heroic knowing they will surely die.
Who is the guy with his hat off looking like the commander? |

If you win this level you see the remaining forces of the legion getting ready to attack Balor's
fort.
"Aye, fight and you may die; run, and you'll live, at least a
while. And lying in your beds, many years from now, would you
be willing to give your life for one chance, just one chance,
to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our
lives, but they'll never take... our freedom!"
If you lose you see a puzzled looking Trow and some Myrmidons. "Whoops.. uh, sorry
there. Are you ok?"
Why does the trow look so perplexed? Step on someone accidentally?

Legends and Lore is really Forrest's baby, though Gholsbane probably does more work on it nowadays. It also contains a lot of work from the Myth Nontoxic days whose exact authors have been lost or forgotten. Some of these lemurs include Joshstar, Orange, Lacrymosa, and poena.dare. Original "Journal of the Legion" concept by poena.dare and Hamish Sinclair. Other authors are credited as appropriate in their individual articles.
