Sword? Ist that what thou callst thine splinter of metal in thine hand. Twould not even suffice to pick the dirt from under mine own fingernails.

Sword! Thou dost insult me greatly by coming to me wielding such a paltry weapon.

Come back when thou dost have a weapon worthy of my attention. *looks at you disgustingly* as well as when thou are more worthy to enter in battle with me.

Now begone thou craven half-wit!

lmao!!!

Now begone thou craven half-wit!

Aesir is routed !

Trebuchets FIRE!!!

And what have we learned today, kids?? If you can't outsmart someone or beat them with your physical prowess, launch rancid, diseased cows at them.

:D

*shakes his head sadly*

Such barbaric tactics...but what can one expect from one such as thine.


Men dispose of yondder corpses using the wagon and scoop. You men as much as it pains me to take such tactis I am afraid mine hand hast been forced.

Lit the field.

*men toss torches out onto the dry grass field surrounding the castle and a line of fire catches and roars towards the trebuchets and engulfs the ground circlign them.*

*Grizzly yells out across the field*

Perhaps thou shouldst learn you, fetid feline, the difference between mud and pitch.

:|

Poop.

RUN AWAY!!!!!

:|

Poop.

RUN AWAY!!!!!

*tears* lmao

Fare thee well. Perhaps once you have read and learned more of tactics you could try again. But perhaps once you learn more thou willst see the futility of thine attacks.

*turns to his men*

Let the trebuchet burn for a little time then put the fire out. Add extra guards on the walls as I do not believe this Wayward Ill-bred feline is truly leaving. We will not be lax.

*turns to sadly watch the burning*

*cries*

*Hears the crying and turns to the source*

MyLady thou shouldst not be here, you could be hurt in the chaos and that wouldst be a true crime.

If beauty such as yours was marred by the repugnant actions of that ratcatcher I would be forced to retaliate on thins behalf.

A DRAGON!!!

*stands forward*

take me dragon!! Thy is not scared of death.. for only in death shall I set you both free.. *closes thy eyes*

*stands forward*

take me dragon!! Thy is not scared of death.. for only in death shall I set you both free.. *closes thy eyes*

*Stepping in front of the most beautious Katalina*

Nay, Thou shall not be passing from this life whilst I am here to protect you.

As much as it pains me to slay innocent creature, for I doth know they are innocent and only corrupted by the lewd ratcatcher, I fear I must.

Ballista! Fire!

*the walls shake as a score of ballista take aim and fire*

I would assume the ballista arrows have been lit on fire...

*cries* He WAS my secret lover.. poor *cough* dragon *cough* smoke...eekk *falls over dead!!*

*roars in anger*

Fetid feline pretender! You shall pay for forcing my hand thusly. Thine days are few for I wilst be searching for you. Not even the mildew coverd stone you crawled out from will protect you from my wrath!

*He turns and picks up the body of Katalina, which is stull radiating beauty and peace*

First I must go to the very gates of the afterlife and bring this Goddess back to our world.

*stopping to glare over the wall*

Thou wilst regret having ever being born.
