As they got closer to the camp Velden found that the amount of different peoples that had come was surprising. Margles, Triggen, Hyberen, Lycaen and Jipsen all milling around each other and mingling. You could see that the Narlfex had come and were in the thick of it all and as Sarvora had promised there were Narue.

The total amount of people was also amazing. There must have been at least one million men and women here to defend the world against the invaders. Unfortunately Velden felt it was not enough.

He noticed the large building in the back of the large camp and wondered what it was for. Off in the distance there where towers and other camps. He began to wonder how many people there were for the coming war.

“Hail heir.” Bretar smiled as he moved forward. “I heard that a strange man and woman were riding this way I figured it was you two. How did your trip to Hybor go?”

“Productive.” Velden smiled pointing to the necklace. “I got the last artifact and the most of the legions should be here in the next day or two. From the looks of it Tanis is already here.”

“You know Lord Tanis.” Bretar smiled. “He arrived two days ago. He said he would wait for you before moving for the front.”

“We shall see who goes to the front soon.” Velden said dismounting. “As far as I’m concerned we are at the front right now. Wouldn’t you agree Tyanna?”

“Yes my love.” She smiled as she came around her mount. “But it might be wise to move it further out. When the Hyberen legions get here we should set them further out towards Shorodan. It would be closer to the battle.”

“Shorodan is lost.” Bretar frowned. “The scouts say that the Sslisk moved into it two days ago. They breached the wall and just rode in and took over.”

Velden smiled. “We will have plenty of time to talk about that. First I will need someone to set up our tent and I need you to call all the leaders together so we can discuss what needs to be done. I want representatives of all races and units to meet me in that building in one hour. We have a war to fight.”
