Before the Dusk of day a heavy fog rolls from the top of the mountain, eeri, menacing, the mountain stands tall. Eric and the members of the White Hill arrive at the base of the mountain with the others yet to arrive.

Eric: (Looks around as notices the fog) This fog going to be a problem for the devices?

Sorex: (Looks at Eric, and I look at him sternly) No, it should work perfectly, the less visibility we have of them, the less they have of us. We will need to spread them out around the mountain (Points to the four pinpoint on the map)

Eric: (Looks at the map) Well when we the guild and the others we can get started. (Looks at the sun) It's almost nighttime.

Sorex: (Sighs) The longer we stand around the more exposed we are. (I notice a crowd of people coming from the treeline)

Finley: (Walks up with the guild behind me as well as Valentine and Lard) Sir, we are here.

Eric: (Looks at Finley then at my two sons Lard and Valentine) What are you two doing here?
Lard: What do you mean? I'm here to help.
Eric: No Lard, I do not want to have my two boys in this fight. I don't want to lose all my children.

Lard: Dad...

Eric: No Lard, you both will stay back so I do not have to worry about you two.

Sir. Valentine: (Looks at Lard and sighs)

Sorex: (Smiles at the two sons of Eric) Perhaps they are ready to face what's ahead?

Eric: No Sorex, if I lose all three of my children I will not be able to live with myself. (Looks at Sorex)

Sorex: Look at your children, grown men. I'm sure they can handle themselves (I wink at the two children)

Eric: They may be grown men but they are still my boys, I do not want to lose them in a battle which we do not know what will happen.

Sorex: (Sighs and tightens fist) Well I suppose there's nothing a fathers love can't do for his children. (I smile slightly)

Lard: (Sighs as nods a bit) Alright father. We will stay back and away from the fight.

Sir. Valentine: (Rests my hand on my sword as nods) Yes father...

Eric: Finley you will take half of the guild and go to this point on the map. (Motions for Sorex to show Finley the map)

Finley: (Walks over to look at the map)

Sorex: We should assault after the artifacts are placed. It should weaken any dark magic present in the area.

Eric: (Nods at Sorex) Alright we will discuss it with the other group coming.

Sorex: Go on then, I shall let you instruct your guild members. (I bow my head)

Eric: (Looks at Finley and the Guild Members as rubs face) We are going to be putting four artifacts around the mountain in a square around the ritual area. We are going to split up the guild as best we can to get the artifacts set up.

Finley: And who is going to run the small sections?

Eric: Finley you will run one of the sections and....

Tod: (Steps from out of the shrubs all tattered clothes messed up) I will lead the one.

Eric: (Looks at Tod as raises an eyebrow) And what exactly happened to you?

Tod: I was tracking them down, turns out they put a lot of traps..... (Breathes heavily)

Eric: (Sighs) I am not letting an apprentice run a group with guild members, I am sorry.
