The Ristop army and The Lodon Army and dwarves were positioned at the wall keeping the orcs in the mountain. The wall can hold about 2500 troops on its top and there is a medium sized flat area between the wall and the mountain entrance. 10000 orcs fit in the plain and there were about 5000 more in the mountains. Ragoths archers were positioned on the wall and 3000 of his troops behind the gate in case they broke thorugh.The orcs were right at the wall . Ragoth began to speak.
"We have done this before. We have held back orc, and troll, and dragon, and barbarian a like. And we can do it now. Have no fear, have no shame, have no mercy. You will not get any. Look into thier eyes. Do you see fear? Do you see mercy? I think not. And when I look into your eyes I do not want to see those things either. Now! I want the pitiless, filthy, mindless creatures sent back into the fiery abyss from which they were spawned! I never want to see them again! FIRE!!!
700 arcers let loose a volley of arrows killing many of the orcs. Thry quickly responded shooting gigsntic arrows off from scorpions killing many on the wall.

Gwydion and his men were right behind the gate, with the three thousand spare troops. His plan was to rush through the gate as soon as the orcs had come into contact with Ragoth's Troops. Gwydion watched Ragoth and how he instructed his troops with valor and wisdom. For some reason Gwydion was beginning to like this Commander. He began to respect him, which he did do to very many people.
Gwydion walked among the lines of his men, looking at each individual one and smiling then nodding his head of apporval and encouragement. He enjoyed having troops of his own. His very own...big family almost. He enjoyed this very much, so much in fact, that was considering doing it more often...maybe even for the future.

Ragoth commanded fire arrows to be fired at the scorpions. They quickly caught fire and were destroyed but no after taking out most of the archers on the wall. He told them to continue firing regular arrows. He fired a few until he climbed down the wall to reenforce the gate. The gate was never actually finished the way he wnated it. It was just a wooden gate when he wanted it to be metal reenforced with stone. But now that that was never accomplished the orcs were about to break thorugh. Sad...he thought. He braced himslef for the break thorugh.
" VOLLEY!!! READYY!!!! Wait for them to break through then fire!Gwydon! Get ur troops ready. Your troops will plow through them and when I tell you to get out of there, GET OUT!" he said.
The orcs broke through and the volley fired killing the heavily armoroed ones.

Gwydion smiled. He walked in front of the archers, Ragoth, Ragoth's troops, and his own troops. Only a few feet were inbetween Gwy and the orcs. Suddenly Gwy tensed and lowered his head as if using a lot of his might. The first twenty or so orcs found themselves pushing the rest behind them, backwords! Gwy, using his telekinetic abilities, picked up an abandoned spear and sent it through ten or so orcs.
Gwy then fell to his knees because so much energy had been used to push the orcs back. Gwy's troops then charged forward and began hacking their way through the frightened orcs. Gwydion got up after a small drink of water and felt quite renewed. He then drew his sword and charged with his troops into battle.

Ragoth charged toward the orcs on his horse; Kyromanth. He swung at them with his sword switching form side to side along with Gwys division. He was having much fun. He saw men beside him fall...one after the next because of the orc crossbowman. " Kill the rossbows! Kill the crossbows! he yelled at the people on the wall. With that he saw the dwarves pour down the wall from their ropes and ladders. Finally he thought.

Gwy smiled at the arrival of the Dwarves, he had long awaited them and he was glad to see them. Gwy continued fighting brutally and skillfully.

Ragoth watched men fall one after another simply because od those crossbows the orcs had.
" Worthless archers" he muttered.. I trained them better than that. " KILL THOSE CROSSBOWS SOMEBODY OR ELSE I'LL DO IT YOU INVOMPETENT FOOLS!!!!"
With that he picked up a fullbody metal sheild and charged throgh the lines of orcs with the most heavily armored men he had at the time and charged at the crossbows killing as many as he could.He and his men tore through the ranks and many orc arrowsbroke or stuck on their sheilds. Ragoth killed one, then two, then three. Then he picked upa spear and launched it so hard it went through two orcs. As he and some men were tearing through the orcs the dwarves came upon them and the horseman division, which was about 700 men came running through tearing the orc ranks apart. There are still so many left he thought.

In the back of the mess and scene of killing gore rage etc..
..Rai stood there. Just stood there. All by her lonesome, sort of glanced down, but a wicked, small grin across her face as lightning pulsed around her wrists, her eyes softly closed.
Then her head shot up, and her eyes jolted open, that grin slightly getting wider. "Game Over."
The oh-so-familiar blue lightning flashed across the now clouded sky.. streaks forming in such a way that it formed the faint outline of a... phoenix soaring up.
And then it was noticed that it was actually in the figure of a phoenix; and then it moved, a soft "roar" of the sorts escaping it, diving under, forming in unison to one large bolt that struck the very middle of the orc bunch, more than likely barbequeing a handful of them.. but that didn't mean there weren't any left. She didn't know how many she took out; but it sure as heck didn't look like much of a difference. 10-30 most likely..
This was going to take some time.

Ragoth foze as he saw the lightinig thing strike down. Didnt kill many he tohught. He was just glad shewas finally her though. Any help he could get would be nice. The crossbow orcs had pretty much been taken out but there were still a few and he wasnt too concerned about them.. The thing he was concerned about though was thr fact that they were outnumbered. He was lsowly getting surrounded.
" PUSH BACK TO THE GATE!!! PUSH BACK TO THE GAE!!! dON'T GET SURROUNDED!!! DWARVES! MAKE A PATH FOR US!!!!" he yelled

Gwydion was hacking away at the right side of the orc's assault. He turned when he heard Ragoth, and his mind began pacing and he quickly yelled to his troops...
"Men, to me! Come to the right side, we will push through them, and around. Come!"
Gwy's troops began to push to the right, opening a way in the mass of orcs. Gwy and his men charged through the path killing on their way. As they passed through finally they veered left and got to the back of the middle of the army. They then began hacking the backs of the orcs sending the orc hordes into a confused, panicked state.

Ragoth and Gwy's divisons met up and quickly began fughting the orcs as one huge mass.
" Deform their ranks! Deform their ranks! " He was yelling. Cavalry! Charge andplow them down!" he yelled again.
500 men on horseback tore through the orcs like a knife in room temperature butter.

Gwy smiled as the orcs began to run with whatever army they still had. He wondered where they leader was. 'Maybe he is ready for their retreat...to simply show up again with larger numbers! Possibly...just testing to see where our weakness is! What Genius! I must inform Ragoth' Gwy enjoyed having conversations with himself. He sliced his way to Ragoth and began to say to him...
"Ragoth! Their commander wasn't here. You don't think they were just testing to see how strong we are, do you?"

[glow=pink,2,300]I assume this is what you meant, Nick - an Orc commander would be in the fray and you said he wasn't, so I'll just stick my person on a mountain.[/glow]
Some miles away, on the summit of a mountain overlooking the wall, a lone figure watches the battle. She is seated in the snow, though the cold doesn't seem to bother her; all her attention is on a small bowl of water in front of her.
The sorceress Jerrassi Windstorm mutters a few words under her breath, and the water begins to ripple. Soon, a detailed picture of the battle going on below is seen. She looks at the faces of Ragoth, Gwydion, and Rai intently, cursing as Orcs fall back again and again under their blows. Standing, she looks at the battle itself; the Orcs appear to her a mass of black, the men and dwarves red and silver. The Orcs were slowly pushing against the defences, and the enemy armies were on the retreat. But it would be a hard-earned victory, if it even turned out to be a victory at all. Perhaps it was time to strike her own blow.
Jerrassi watches a moment more. Rai was blowing lightning at her soldiers; no point sending that at the men, the girl would absorb it. Water would freeze before it did any damage. Fire would result in a tidal wave of melted snow. There were no plants in the barren mountains. That left only wind. Her specialty.
Gathering her power, she feels for the winds swirling about the mountain and gathers them into her. More and more, until a mass of wind encircles her, enough to blow a man apart. She closes her eyes and chants, focusing on circles and rings, and shaping the wind unconsciously with her hands as her voice and power sculpt it. Soon, a veritable typhoon in blowing on the mountain. With an effort of will, she breaks it from herself and casts it at the fray to wreak its havoc, a small smile on her face.

Ragoth continued fighting until he saw his freind come up to him and talked to him.
" I hope they arent becuase the whole battle would be lost if they are just testing us. with 15,000 orcs though..i dont know...I can only hope not" he said as he continued fighting.
