Prologue sp1

The Wizard Len'ol paces in a military camp on a small wood pabilion. Before him are 90 of his warforged fighters and 10 warforged juggernaughts. " {C
The 6th legion of Valeria troops have been sieging the castle of the red dragon for ten days and there is no sign of us getting in. This fortress is well defended. But that's where you come in my juggernaughts! Once you have broken in, your brothers will Handle the castle defenders and provide you escort. You will find that dragon and kill it, do not stop until that dragon breaths his last. Do not fail me or your Emperor!"
The Warforged salute and begin their fast march towards the castle gate. Many Valerian soldiers cheer on the mighty construct division. As the march quickens one of the Warforged named Nimble climbs up on his large friends back... What do you think our chances are Korthus? The giant construct pulls his great sword. "Just stay close to me, I won't let anything bad happen, it's a full moon tonight and that means the silent watcher is with us."
Crash!* Korthus see's two of his older brothers begin the assault on the main gate. Running wide Korthus throws a huge Javalin up the wall, it plunges into stone and his smaller brother begins climbing. Korthus begins climbing the wall with brute strength as his small brothers climb the chain. Bolts and boulders from the defenders take down several warforged from the chain, but the the constructs breach the wall.
Korthus and his older brothers Begin the breach of the keep, one taken down by a troll and several more badly damadged... when the dragon takes to the air! The dragon strafes the army and screams of pain and death follow. Bracken launches a powerful javelin at the dragon and it plunges deep into it's leg. "Go now brothers!" Korthus and two of his younger brothers begin pulling! The red dragon roars and hits the top of the wall. The dragon breaths and burns Korthus' brothers to slag. Korthus is taken into the air as the dragon takes off gaining altitude.
Korthus climbs the chain and attacks the dragon. The dragon bites down on the Warforged Juggernaught dealing near fatal damage but also roars in pain from the spikes. "you trouble some little Mage toy!"
Time slows as the dragon rears back to finish the construct... Korthus sees in the moon light a wound on the dragons neck; desperately he plunges his sword into the dragon..... A gurgle of blood erupts and the dragon dies.
The Valerian army cheers as they see the shadow of the dragon plumet. But the thump of the dragon as it's body rolls down into a canyon goes unnoticed as the battle rages on.
