hopes for chapter 15

[SYED]

with tribulation finished, hopefullly this will be next to up date, so this topic is for gossip on what might happen.

THe only thing i can think of that kyvern has to bargain is his ability to have children, so next bargain, his price will be kits with the new shadow girl. THe shadow fox pushed for the war for military reasons, so arcan could get their hands on high grade military gear, while the humans use up theirs, so when mines destroyed, military alchemical devices will be in short supply for all but arcans. THey will have to remove all arcan collars, only if to get their crystals. WIth so many arcans gone, their will be a huge demand for labour, so whole indusrties could be affected. SAy the shaman and alchemists and smiths, create devices to help deal with the lack of labour, could sell them and help. THe shadow fox is of illusion and healing, why else would its eyes be green

There is a huge forest between human lands and haven correct, what if they rig it using illusion devices placed high up trees, if the army cant get through, they cant attack. SO make them lost and confused, also use shadow creating devices so cant see. If deep river is entry point to arcan lands a fort need to be built, imagine a fortress built and shaped by shaman. Once the arcans leave human lands, any reprisals will be costly.
A huge army would need to be gathered, equal to the one that faced the loreguards, it must carry all it supplies with t, and establish its own supply lines in the wild. Every time they camp, they risk arcan attacks in the night. arcans are faster and have better long range weaponry. ALso no human can effectivly fight an arcan up close. In the dark, they could just keep shooting humans. risk ing monster attacks doing great damage.
SO the arcan army is using the advanced briton weaponry, which gives range and ammo. THey also have speed, so get to range of humans quick, and make them march into their fire trying to get into range. THe arcans are taking horses as they go, with them carrying thier spoils of war, slowing human armies down even more. do they have ballons yet, because a blimp would be great, it only need crytals to move.

THe river must pour in to the city sewers, so to wash the filth out to sea. They are not defended as any army would have to face the lightning rats, imagine during the night arcan forces creep in, while shaman get the rats to help out later. THey could then attack any building from beneath. WIth the arcan army marching, all slaves would have been taken or killed, if alive they would be kept in the kennels. Free them, and then using shario help to rob the city blind. DO they want to get the crystals or destroy them. THe anti magic effect is created by alchemy, what ever alchemy can do a shaman can do. Can a shaman cast an anti magic field around them. if you shut down alchemy at the right time and place you could inflict a lot of damage. the city walls must have powered defences, can a shaman take the energy away.
destroy the loreguard bridge, and make them boat across or build another. spirit sight shows crystals, does that include thier colour. find and destroy all black crstals. shadow walk and drain all anti magic devices
SHadow walk in to a barrack and drain the people almost dry.
because currently he cant shadow walk in one area a lot, he nned to do the most damage with the fewest trips. disguise himself, and simply order the loreguard in to bad position. SNeak an elite unit of arcan into the city, hide into the sewers. Order a group of soldier to follow him into the sewers to inspect them, ambush and deal with them. Once enough are dealt with, get allied humans to dress as loreguard, and order the gate defenders to follow him into the sewers. or use his disguise to summon and kill the officers.
can a blessing allow arcans to breath under water, so come in through the habour and river.

[SYED]

WIth the arcan forces so fast, and destination clear, they will be suprised by the attack at the mines. SHaman allow easy access to crystals, so all crystals will be destroyed or stolen to increase the loss of crystals in human territories, and easily arm the army.

all arcan in the city would be killed or locked up, likly locked up and linked to a kill device. Deactivate, and get arcans into the sewers.

the army will leave many destitute, so possibly give crystals to restore them.

most shaman are near haven, so can help mass produce equipment. So when the new army gets home, all arcans will be fully equiped. So an army much larger, faster, and meaner. while humans wanting revenge, the sheer loss of labour, assets and supplies will stop it. they will try, but will likly go badlty.
