Cikel sat on the grass cooling his ass. It was red hot from the poking he had just received from his faithful friend westwood. He was worried. The battle lines were being drawn and they were too few. Too few indeed.
But he had hope. When his scouts had informed him that it was almost harvesting season they were about to be attacked cikel had sent flying floopies to many a kingdom asking for aid. Many had responded. Many had not.
For first he sent a missive to the good ol tristan boys of erzoth. Good tidings had come from that direction. Although he could not make it, Tristan had loyally informed Cikel that he was sending some of his best men. The mysterious shadowmysty and seasoned Kale would be heeding the call to war.
Next he had visited the high mountains in a drug induced vision to beseech Da (masterful) Birds for aid. Birds had cawed in agreement.
Finally he had besseched aid from various heroes of old - Septimas of Chaos also known as the enigma - Longsword the High King of MB - Require the devious archer of danger - and his good ol buddy Jaren the Jar - and not to forget Carmale Macchiato the tasty. Many had agreed that a defense must be set in place.
But where was his liege lord Arrowaine. Where were the veteran Occitan Knights who bravely fought for poutine and other french things like whatever it is french people enjoy?? Anal sex?
Finally he saw the Occitan banner in the distance. Cikel felt his heart leap with joy, only to be replaced with a sense of dread. For only three fearsome occitan knights had come. JC and Athenoune and the Chevalier Martin.
"Hola JC como esta?" Cikel said in well rehearsed french
"Cikel I have bad news. Our brother's in arms have abandoned you and signed a non aggression pact with kesh" JC said in sadness
"Can it be JC then why have you not stayed away from this imminent defeat?" exclaimed cikel
"Ah cikel" Athenoune exclaimed "we would not miss the chance to fight with you again as we are good friends and would never go eat croissants instead of this glorious battle"
So be it men en guarde! Chargeeeeee
And with that the heroes of the story advanced on the endless, well disciplined hordes of Thallion.
