The Siege Of Haven — John Cramer

Twelve years ago the orcs launched a massive invasion, the likes of which the world had never seen. Only with the combined strength of elves, dwarves and men were they stopped. The fighting was hard, and it lasted nearly two years. Much blood was shed, and many lives were lost. The final battle was decided at the gates of Haven, the last true fortress city in a land that had seen too many wars. But those alliances were made in desperate times, and the treaties that had formed were broken as soon as the last orc fled the battlefield. Voices have cried out for change. Some of us who are strong enough have taken up the call on our own. Never again will the orcs take us unaware. Never again will we let them roam our woods and drive fear into the hearts of our people. Never again will we stand idly by and do nothing. Already there is rumor that the orcs are gathering for war again. Haven braces its gates for battle once more, a battle few think that it can win. The siege of Haven is set to begin. -- Danor Star, leader of the Nightmare Company
