<From First venture in a new land>
Revan had made it through the gate as easily as the others however he noticed this one was extremely different from the others he had been to.
He had been to the Frozen Fields but this place had a chilling effect that was worse like it had all the heat sucked out of it.
The plant life here seemed half dead in some places as if life was quite literally being drained away by the land beneath it barely keeping itself alive.
Looking up at the large moon hovering over head he knew that this place was probably one of if not the most dangerous verse he had found so far and he had walked willingly into it.
He appeared to be in a city that certainly appeared to have had better days as many windows were covered by large planks of wood nailed down.
Revan realized immediately how wrong this verse felt in every fiber of his soul but he had come here to offer his sword in defence of this place and its people as it was the right thing to do after all.
He began to wander the stone road and he looked at the people that surrounded him mostly soldiers it seemed very few civilians were out and about probably good considering the coming danger that had been reported.
He quickly came across a busy building that took his interest surrounded by guards the building seemed somewhat beautiful in design showing that at some point this city had obviously thrived.
Once inside Revan found the inside far newer then the outside had been and everybody seemed quite busy with paperwork and other such things though everything seemed much more advanced still then his own world.
He immediately caught the sight of two other people in the office that were very obviously out of place here he did not want to presume but it was entirely possible they were other primes that had found their way here.
It seemed they were discussing battle plans with whoever was in charge here and Revan felt the need to listen in the more information he got the better his chances of not only winning but surviving too which may end up being more of an issue then he first thought.
Commander Atelos certainly appeared to have things sorted out and luckily the city appeared to have been prepared for war as the existence of such walls would have suggested.
The term battlemage certainly caught his attention he had not been expecting magic to be used so widely enough for such a thing but it made sense in a way with even he himself having unlocked some level of magical potential.
It seemed other primes on the other side were expected this caught Revan by surprise a bit the shock that Omni had brought evil primes to this world as well was a thought that disgusted him though he appreciated being warned of such things by the commander.
If he was expected to fight other primes when they came he was worried for they would probably be far more powerful then he was being so new to this world though it was perhaps time he stepped up so to speak.
The others were asked to meet with the sergeant outside the city gates to be connected to an infantry unit not a bad move the man that appeared as a prime seemed to have a sword suitable for such a task.
After thinking it over for a few moments Revan had decided for himself where he would place himself as much as he would have loved to fight at the very front and perhaps he still would yet he had better plans.
With the archers on the battlements near the gate would be where he would take his stand there he would be in a position he was happy with to defend against the hordes of undead that would come.
He wished he knew more about what undead they were facing and how they would be attempting to enter the city whether they had magical ways of getting in or if they would obey the laws of war that he had learned all his life.
He knew he had to be ready for anything and ready to be tested and he was happy to have the opportunity he just wished so much innocent life was not on the line as it were.
The two primes seemed to salute ending the conversation with the Commander and once he thought it was acceptable he stepped forward moving toward the maps checking to see if they held any useful information.
The city seemed rather simple at least compared to the endless Frozen Fields or ocean of the Vasty Deep neither of those had any real direction to them and now he was able to see maps of troop placements and terrain all most useful to him.
He hoped the defenders had chosen the best locations he certainly knew that this would be all or nothing and if they failed nothing would certainly be the end result once this city was burned or worse corrupted into some undead bastion.
He noticed with the two gates located in the city it was possible for not only the people of the city to flee but also would give whatever forces of evil were at work here the ability to escape the Pale Moors and threaten other verses such a thing could not be allowed.
Exiting the office building he followed the others toward the main gate which was easily enough to find once you took into account of where the streets and buildings were placed and how the wall was designed.
Wide open people were moving in and out of it mostly civilians in and soldiers out he however had to split off moving toward an opening in the wall that no doubt hid the staircase up to the wall and though it was possible he might have been early he needed to check to make sure he picked the right spot.
He stepped up the stone staircase quickly passing only one soldier traveling down before he was on the top of the wall overlooking both the city and the dark drained landscape on either side.
Walking along the wall admittedly he was enjoying the view and the walls did somewhat remind him of his home world which made it hurt even more knowing an attack of such monstrosity would soon be arriving.
Finally very close to the gate he began looking for somewhere he felt comfortable shooting from taking his place between two other archers both seemed as young as he was if not more so.
Moving up it seemed they were extremely surprised that a Prime had decided to join them as Revan understood by now the effect his existence had on people in the omniverse though he had no interest in abusing such an honour if it could be called that.
For now the two archers said nothing to him though they did share looks of confusion with each other after looking him over Revan hoped they were ready for the fight ahead as he could tell it would require all their concentration to win.
Pulling out his bow he aimed it out testing to make sure it was ready for battle as much as he was and then he lowered it looking out he knew horrors were coming the question was only when they would arrive.
