Against The TIde

"Baron Quilldrake, I assume you have heard what is happening here."  Mayor Faylen said as Lucan approached him.

"Yes, I was made aware and came to have a look."

"Will you be participating with the other travelers?"  Mayor Faylen asked.

"No, I will remain here in case something unexpected happens."

"Good, good, then I can rest reassured.  I think it is unlikely that the beast tide will reach the city but it is always good to be prepared for the worst."

"Mmm."  Grunted Lucan while he looked out across the crowd of players that were preparing for the fight.

"My only worry is that their will not be enough beasts for the players.  When I asked for help, I didn't expect those who answered the call to come in such numbers.  Things have really changed since we came here.  Those who didn't support us all took the chance to run away when disaster struck Baramore."
