Quote:"The time has finally arrived,
A new age of darkness will soon come.

And he who sits upon my back shall be brought back into this world anew."

Quote:"Hear me, people of Meranthe. The Dark Lord Varrach must not be revived at any costs; it took mine Father's full strength along with the blessings he received from the Pantheon to fell the demon once...we cannot let his efforts be in vain.
  
So we fight.
   
We will claim his weapon and put an end to this twisted game the Deep Hold is trying. Tonight, they will be stopped!"

Across the terrain of Meranthe, the thunderous clamour of hooves signals the approach of yet another contender in the ritual. Familiar streaks of golden attire, lamellar armor and war horses give a clear representation of the Golden Horde on the move. 

For some time, it remains unclear to where they march in such great numbers. But soon enough the bold Steppe warriors make their intentions clear. A contract made, signed and paid for. The Horde would defend the ritual site.

Though, perhaps the most disturbing sight to onlookers who have not yet heard the news, is the demon at the head of the Army, next to the Khan herself. Hulking mass of sinew and muscle, delivering a message to all that appeared at the mountain.

Quote:

"How ironic it is, that the Lord of Death must be revived to break this cycle of stagnancy. You mortals deny your own strength and cower behind your walls until the very last moment. Come then! Test your mettle against the great war that comes to claim you all. Let us see if your warriors are filled with determination, or desperation!"
