The Siege of Dekamura:
I do my Companions a discredit in cutting short the discription of the Underwater Battle.
Dain, upon discovering the metal of his Battle Axe passed through his opponents proceeded to bludgeon them with the halft.
Kraypike struck blows with his Halberd with Electic results. Aterwords his Water Elementals reported only one casualty.

Ismael made his presence know and struck out at his attackers. Shark Men and Orcas alike. at one point creating an area of Silence around Fingolfin and himself and confusing the Orcas. In a desparate attempt to protect Fingolfin he struck an Orca that attacked Fingolfin with his sword Dark Moon and broke the spell controlling the beast and ity fled.

Arteasian defended herself, but found fighting in the underwater environment difficult.

Imric Mental Stunned the Kracken and struke down several Shark Men. When Kraypike warned of a Wizard he found him and captured him. Eventually taking him back to the Prince's Ship.

Fingolfin managed to work his way throught the harbour chain and managed to break through just as an Orca bit him and carried him a short distance away.

With the Harbour Chain broken the Cardien and Megalosian Fleets sailed into port. Imric was detailed to neutralizing the enemy artillery. He was successful and only a few ships were lost entering the harbour.

On the docks, the Defenderserrected barricades and prepared to repel their attackers. Unfortunately the Companions lead the charge.

Dain hacked his way through the barricades, the defenders, and into the city. The Companions not only kept up, but preforemed feats of arms and magic that shattered the defenders forces and moral.

Finally Imric launched a solo assault on the defenders Commanders and Wizards with the precision of a scalpel. Those who could fled and those who could not surrendered enmass.

The battle for Dekamura was over. All that was left was the looting and pillaging.

With the fall of Dekamura, the rebel Earl Gavin Magnus and his forces will be forced to forage and scrounge for any and all supplies. While hotly pursued from both north and south. His forces will scatter, surrender, or flee into the hills. The Earl is spirited away by his loyal supporters. The Eastern Empire is Won. Duke Bran of Craine holds the Western Empire, he stands.
