A few years have past, the war has been quite costly, keireen has not attacked in full force since the valley city to the confusion of the Geirlanth populace and Reinlas has seemed to be the bigger victor in the war so far managing to keep the battles at the borders contested at least and have them be won at best. The Geirlanthian Elite Warriors in Renamerima Castle under the command of Laraka and Zytaira have seem some of the fiercer fighting over the years though surprisingly little attacks towards the castle itself. The guards on night patrol on the outer most wall are seeing nothing this current night and assume it will be one of the easy nights but unbeknownst to them some winged creatures fly above them with invisibility that natural magic cannot give immortalai. These creatures begin to dive down past the walls and land onto a higher up balcony of the castle, one guard does stand there and one of these invisible creatures wings sharpen in a way which quickly wraps around the guards neck and slices through it killing the guard.
"Wha-" The guard manages to say before dying and hsi body then falsl to the ground
The creatures move through the castle stealthily avoiding more guards but killing those that do get in their way without making noise. The creatures group up near one wall in a more heavily guarded area and use their magic to burn a hole through the wall and grab something, they retrace their steps and fly away towards Keireens kingdom before the alarm of the deaths and break in is raised.
The next day...
Reinlas goes to Renamerima Castle after hearing of the attack and as he lands within the castle walls he sees the bodies roughly 20 in total with surprised faces frozen stiff at the time of their deaths all have claw stabs on their backs, sliced opens necks or daggers in their backs. Laraka walks over to Reinlas.
"What the hell happened?" Reinlas asks
"I wish we knew, no one sensed anything nor did we hear or see anything. We only found out when some other guards were scanning around for potential intruders that the bodies and a hole in a wall was found" Laraka says
"A hole in a wall?" Reinlas asks
"Within the castle itself in a fairly well guarded area, one wall had a hole burned in it after some searching we discovered some potential strategies we had written down were taken" Laraka says
"That is not good" Reinlas says
"My thoughts exactly, the thing that pisses me off is the fact these men couldn't even put up a fight" Laraka says
"It is regrettable but if Keireen had a hand in this and of coarse he did then what the hell kind of spies is he sending?" Reinlas asks
"Some exceptional ones I'll give them that" Laraka says
"What strategies did they get?" Reinlas asks
"The siege strategies for the nearest city under Keireens control, guess we'll need to make new ones" Laraka says
"Indeed, in the mean time we should get the army to attack around that area to make it seem like we'll actually do it now before our strategy becomes ineffective while we actually get new ones made" Reinlas says
"Of coarse" Laraka says
Reinlas walks over to the bodies.
"May the others of the first help take your souls to wherever you may go and ensure you rest easy" Reinlas says as the nearby soldiers pick up the bodies to go bury them
Reinlas teleports back to Reinholm and gives the order for the attack on the areas around the enemy city. Farenisle and Liara walk over.
"Father what happened?" Farenisle asks
