Late was the day i rode back into the lands of NA. I had been absent for some time, injured in some long forgotten battle and left for dead. A man had saved me and a few of my companions at his request I kept going. Slowly I placed together an army along with my friend General Swagathor to come back on a warpath. After weeks of planning we decided on our target, New Asugan Castle. Sending Uulmshar, my new apprentice who saved my life, ahead to scout out the lands I rallied my troops and marched off. When I was a day out I sent courier out to all the lands telling them of my intentions to declare war and seize the lands and to bring about a new level of prosperity.
However immediately after my declaration, even though I got a new ally, the EU invaders known as Libre Eques sent tens of thousands of troops to my location demanding my surrender. Backing off I left the siege to think about what to do, what my future actions should hold. Leaving my army behind I took a ride around the desert and the steppes. I rode past Ahmerrad, a city I once owned and then lost to my own incompetence. Past the castle of Bardaq where I fought with my good friend Rando against waves of enemy forces. Past the stawlart fortress of Durquba where the remnants of the Holy chadzian Empire have been hiding for months. I turned my horse north and rode up into the steppes. Past Nova Uhhun Castle which my friend Helvetius lost to the Lost Legion. Past Malayurg which Dr Device did the same. Eventually I came to the gates of Tulga and sat there staring at it before moving my horse to the gates.
"Who goes there?" the guard at the top shouted
"Tristan of Erzoth. I have come to see General King Emperor sJimmy and his Legate Dutchy." I said, half expecting to be shot by half a dozen arrows. The guard stared at me for a few moments before ducking inside. I waited for about 10 minutes before the gates slowly swung open. Nudging my horse onward I rode into a city I never thought I'd see outside of a war. Handing over my sword and trusty crossbow to the guards I was escorted to the keep where sJimmy and Dutchy where waiting for me.
"Why are you here? We've long been foes and little allies." sJimmy asked
"I'm here because I'm sick of whats been going on and I wish to see some change, or at least have a shot to go about it. If I try on my own all that will happen is loss. I wish to help you in your plans to see what will come of it." I said while taking a knee. "I have loyal companions who will join as well. I'm willing to pledge my loyalty to you."
sJimmy and Dutchy looked at each other and discussed for a few moments. "
"Very well. Pledge your allegiance and it will happen"
"I, Tristan of Erzoth, do swear that I will be Faithful and Bear True Allegiance to the Legion, for His Majesty, General | King | Emperor | Jimmy, to bring Honor and Glory to the Legion, through Victory or Death! "
