Landing outside of Fort Clay, the heroes rush to the gates to warn the soldiers of the on coming ogre army. From behind them comes a biting cold wind, as they turn they see the wagon be turned to ice and them smashed into a thousand shooting sharps! Ruminski hears in the wind the whisper of Kormath, “So you may believe.”
Meanwhile inside a mysterious woman is standing in the office of young Captain Aberdaal. She requests lodging but is denied until she reveals her connection with Timiro nobility. The captain orders a lieutenant to show the senator around Fort Clay. Just then shouts come from the walls above the gate, “Monster bandits are charging the walls!” All the enthusiastic raw soldiers rush to the walls to take a look. The senator and Captain Aberdaal join them.
Nestor, Krimp, Ruminski, and Devin shout to the men of Fort Clay that the Ogre’s have raised an army, preparations for battle must be made, they have warned four villages, and the peasants will be coming here for shelter. The soldiers of Fort Clay can not believe what they are hearing. After sometime the heroes are allowed into the Fort. Captain Aberdaal openly distrusts the party based on their races alone. The heroes present some heavy evidence that Fort Calada has been destroyed. The heroes tell the captain that there are one hundred ogres and almost three hundred orcs. Captain Aberdaal does not believe Fort Calada has fallen or that the Ogres can band together into a group larger then five or six.
