Session One Hundred Thirteen: The Battle at Lost Oasis


While the Lost Oasis was burning, the group quickly took stock of their opponents. There was a platoon of foot soldiers and archers, lead by a formidable looking general. There were a few squads of black cassocked templars, a couple of defilers, a squad of way manipulators, and a squad of half-giants.
Opposing them was Abbas, the druid, and a group of forty native inhabitants of the oasis. While the enemy soldiers were formed into ranks, the natives were haphazardly positioned. The group could easily see that Abbas and the natives were not prepared for a frontal assault from a trained military force.
Rafiq and Selia drew their longbows and began targeting the templars with arrows. Dimitria used her druidic magic to bolster the native's combat abilities. Everyone else ran over the flat ground, where defiled ash lay under their feet, and straight into the line of half-giants.
