Jonok landed with a thud. The air was frigid. A thick fog hung around him. A bridge disappeared into the fog before him. The bridge to the place where nightmares live. A bridge to the Land of Shadows. Jonok took a deep breath and began the long walk across the bridge.

A scrawny cultist acting as a scout picked his head up and turned to the tent Fabador was in "Master! Something approaches through the fog!" Fabador rolled his eyes and walked out of his tent first glancing one way then the other until he spotted the lone figure. "Do not fire I wish to see what it wants. Thats an order!" The cultist withed away under the intense stare of the shade repeating the orders as he went. The shade stood with his arms crossed by his tent that sat atop the slight slope in front of the bridge. "Who risks death to cross in a time such as this?"

"Tis I Jonok Coldfury, Guardian of Gorgraz. I come seeking aid. Surely you know of the shadow that spreads across the land?" Jonok stopped several yards away from the shade.

Fabador gazed at the creature through suspecting eyes "Yes my master does indeed know about the cloud above the land... What is it you want here in the Land of Shadows?" Cultists ran up and down the line of tents carrying out orders while others made summoning circles to summon additional demons. Shadow walkers slid along the ground on patrol as Urgals sharpened there tusks and weapons for the upcoming battles. All around in the camp people and creatures where preparing for war, but all actions and activity's seemed to skirt Fabadors tent... Even the other shades held down there gaze as they walked by for few wanted to have anything to do with the higher ups other than take orders from them.

"I come requesting that you dispatch an army to aid in the coming war. You know of the things on the other side of the gateway better than anyone, and that knowledge would be very useful in the war."

Fabador scrunched his eyes together. "Well if its information you whant we got it." Fabadors body whent ridgied as he stared at the sky he was reciveing word from Karon. "Yes my master as decided that if the enemy is not defeated it would be bad for our own forces... He has decided that its in our best intrest to join forces with you... for now." Then Fabadors eyes grew wide "He says I will head out with an adbanced battalen by the end of today and that.... and that he himself will lead the bulk of our army tomarow..." Fabadors voice trailed off and some of the activity around camp died down. Karon had just opend his eyes to the world agine which was bad enough, but if the master whanted to fight this enemy himself it was indeed bad for all creatures both good and bad.

"I thank you." Jonok bowed low. "The armies are gathering in the plains to the west of the portal. War plans are not final as of yet. Once again, I thank you, now I must be on my way." An idea hit Jonok. I could ask them, he thought.

Fabador rolled his eyes as the creature turned away he immediately set about gathering his advanced party for they would soon have to leave. "Get it together! We must leave soon!" The sounds around the camp began to climb into a roar as people ran here and there gathering supplies and making final preparations. Fabador sent messages to Karon "Sir you are going to fight?" Karon sent a message in reply "Fabador you have served me for eons... And you have never know me to fight but this needs to be settled once and for all. With this threat out of our way a great wight shall lift from not only my shoulders but all of the land of shadows. Indeed with out this threat hanging over us we shall be one more step closer to ruling this land with nothing to stop us." Fabador was satisfied they had been doing small steps for ages rigging votes and sending whispers of messages to those in power putting thoughts of power and glory into there heads. Though recently they have had large success they have also had set backs... One of which could be this new enemy and if it was such a threat that Karon himself wanted to fight... Fabador looked over the fog filled horizon "May the lord of darkness bless our deeds."

Jonok was glad to be leaving the Land of Shadows. The place just made him uneasy, which he rarely was any more. He crossed the bridge and struck out the south east, toward the desert, to attempt to bring another ally to the fight. I hope they still remember me he thought.

Fabador and his advanced party where ready to move out across the bridge to war. Although they where heading out now they where a fair distance away from the mountains of Dargath and it would take a while to get there. As they began to move out Fabador couldnt help but roll his eyes at the road ahead.
