Atreyos, Kibworth, Libson and their armies moved through Westwind, arriving in Pertland in a matter of hours. "Atreyos, we have arrived." Kibworth said to Atreyos. As soon as they arrived however they were stopped in their tracks by the Rebel Magikill. "HALT! State your business being in our land!" shouted some of the Rebel Magikill. "We've come to negotiate, we're from the Order Empire." Atreyos stated. "Let me guess, this is about the treaty?" A Magikill said sarcastically. "Indeed it is." Atreyos replied, the grip on his spear becoming tighter. "We aren't interested in fixing the treaty so if you want to fix it, you have to destroy us." the Magikill leader retorted. Kibworth immediately fired his bow, killing a Magikill Minion. Atreyos and Libson grinned. "You have our answer" Kibworth said. "Libson, I want to show you something." "What is it Bregren?" Bregren then showed Libson his shield which he seems to have customised to have sawblades on the sides. "Be careful, it's really sharp." Libson looked impressed at the modification. "Wow, I like and and it looks like you'll have to try it out." Libson said as he pointed to a Minion coming in to attack. Bregren went forward, and sliced the Minion in half with his shield. "What the hell was that Bregren!?" Atreyos shouted. "Look." Bregren said to him as he showed him his shield. "Holy crap, now I know how he just split in two, I like it." Just then two Magikill went in to attack. Brackton arrived late, "I'm really sorry sir, I was attacked by a couple of natives, what the hell?" "It's okay, Archidons, fi-" Libson was cut off when Brackton rushed forward and jumped over the Magikill, barely avoiding their stun spell, "What is he doing?" Atreyos asked as he looked on in awe. Brackton grabbed one Magikill and pulled him down on his sword while the other was decapitated when Bregren took his Xiphon and sliced his head clean off his shoulders. "Save your arrows, Archidons." Bregren said to them and Kibworth. "Good job soldiers." Libson said. "Enemy Statue in sight Captain." Agrance said to Atreyos. "All units, charge that statue." Atreyos shouted to his units. As all the Army charged, the Magikill barely had time to assemble a few men. "Hit the statue boys!!" Atreyos shouted. "Yes, sir!" but as they continued attacking it, the statue gained yellow eyes, and started firing lasers out of them. "Statue turret!! Fall Back!!" Atreyos shouted to his men, narrowly avoiding the lasers. "Christ, Move, move!!" Brackton shouted. As he said that, the lasers stopped, and luckily nobody was killed. "Destroy the Statue!! It's open!" All the men roared and crushed the statue in a matter of seconds, forcing the Rebeld to surrender and were all taken prisoner.

"That was a decent result though how did they summon that Statue Turret?" Libson asked Atreyos. "I don't know, I'll try and figure it out." Atreyos replied. "Okay." Atreyos then arrived at the Palace to speak with the King. "Atreyos, I take it the mission was successful?" The King asked. "For the most part, negotiations didn't go to plan but it didn't take long for their statue to crumble." "I guess it's something." the King replied to Atreyos. "There is something troubling me though, your majesty. They summoned a Statue Turret. How I don't know, But we should be on our guard of we have to face them again." Atreyos said to the King. "That's good to know, thank you Atreyos." Atreyos nodded and left the Palace.
