Felix noticed Mizuki come back and that he seemed to grab his things and all but up and leave. Surely this was a joke, but he knew better. Go figure a elf would leave right before the final battle. They wondered why elves and humans were commonly at odds? But it wasn't time to think about that, so long as Thal held things together they had some odds of winning right? Maybe Mizuki was the smart one in leaving. Saving himself the fate of defeat.
Probably later he would think he over reacted, though he would hardly have the chance later to think about such things. No it seemed he would have to deal with a number of other things before he'd be given the chance to think on anything at all. No it wasn't even hours after Mizuki left that the camp wasn't under attack.
Things were hardly in good order, this attack was far more planned and there was a new addition to the mix. It seemed the whole war was lead by the drow against the current king. Like they were trying to break from the kingdom. That was exactly what they were going to do. Enabling treaties with the orcs, some out laying human settlements in poor standing with the current king. Among other races were the goblins, dark dwarfs and shadow fae. There were others as well but what did it matter?
Not too many days after the attack on the camp was pushed back did the main army assault the remains of the camp. Still in the process of rebuilding defenses and tending to the wounded from the last fight there was no real way that they were going to win. Even without the first assault the numbers were far greater than reports had first said. It took no time to overthrow the settlement and destroy any moral that was left as a glimmer of hope the battle could be won.
This was where the real battle would begin. The races of light against the forces of dark. Maybe the old saying that had been spoke of was true. If it was there was no real way for just two to over throw armies and to force the lands to join together again. No this was the war that would force the lands to be torn apart and to put once allies against the other.
